Sporting quite a fulsome beard against Cork obviously elicited a lot of comments for Paul Galvin. Today he issued a pretty epic response on is blog.
A man who is no stranger to a bit of abuse over how he looks is Kerry’s Paul Galvin. But whether you like the Finuge man’s look or not, you have to admire how he has dealt with the latest round of abuse he received.
As you may have spotted the rather wispy effort he once had has sprouted into a monster and that drew a few responses in both the press and cyberspace. This evening he responded with a blog post for the ages.
Further to recent Twitter activity and pictures published in today’s press relating to my appearance in yesterday’s Kerry V Cork NFL game I would like to utterly and unequivocally distance myself from any claims made regarding my beard being overgrown.
My beard is no longer now than it was for the Down game and any efforts made to suggest it is overgrown or unkempt will be treated with the utmost gravity. Full beards or “statement beards” as they are known in the high streets and piazzas of Lixnaw, Abbeydorney, Kilflynn, Ballyduff, Causeway and Ballyheigue are all the rage from North Kerry to New York City right now.
Furthermore any attempts made to liken me to Charlie Bird, The Puck Goat or various Arabs will be disputed and dealt with accordingly. Attempts to compare me in appearance to Our Lord will be treated as blasphemy. Those making such comparisons, thus taking Our Lords name in vain will pay their dues on the Day Of Reckoning.
Furthermore and finally my personal grooming is a personal matter, one which I take very seriously as the pictures show. I will deal with any grooming issues I may or may not have privately heretofore and I would ask the media and my Twitter followers to respect my right to do so.
I am only commenting publicly in response to the many references that have been made to it in the public domain over the last 24 hours.
I will make no further comment on this matter at this point.
Now, that’s everyone told.
