Galway fans should be very happy about this.
In case you missed it, there was one hell of a hurling game over the weekend.
As we reported previously, in a match as thunderous and chaotic as the weather that greeted it, neither team could be separated even after a thrilling period of extra time, with the final score of Clare 1-30 to Galway 1-30 confirming a replay next Sunday in Thurles.
In the lead-up to that game, famous Galway based pub An Púcán have had a new mural installed in their beer garden, and it is a doozy.
Painted up much like the Obama ‘Yes We Can’ image, having the heroic Canning above the crowd in Galway might just be the thing that will give the supporters the edge come the rematch this weekend.
We fully expect to see both #madaboutgalway and #YesWeCanning to be trending ahead of the game in Thurles. The game on couldn’t take place at Croker because there are already two games taking place there, with Dublin and their massive support expected to occupy the majority of the stadium as it is.
Galway V Clare will kick off at 2pm on Sunday 5 August.
If it is anything like the last one, nobody in Ireland will have any nails left in their hands, having bitten them all clean off.
