Fair play to the supporters of Wexford’s Good Counsel, they gave their side some support during their All-Ireland win at the weekend.

On Saturday in Clonmel Good Counsel from New Ross in Wexford won the All-Ireland Schools JFC ‘A’ final, inflicting a heavy defeat on St Francis College from Rochestown. A final score of 1-15 to 0-6 tells its own story but if the game was decided by the volume of support, then it is no wonder the title went to the south east.

This video, shot by our good friend Jerome Quinn (@JeromeQuinn) and posted on the GAA All-Ireland Post Primary Schools Council this afternoon, shows the phenomenal support Good Counsel received from the stands.

A whole host of well-known chants were tweaked to fit the team and they continued even after the final whistle. Then things got a bit strange as they roll out the Kolo/Yaya Toure chant, who we’re pretty sure don’t tog out for a secondary school in Wexford.

Anyway, hats, or shoes, off to the fans.
