Video: Superman is on his way to Croke Park and he’s supporting Donegal (Sort of)

Well, he was supporting Dublin but he’s fully on the Donegal bandwagon now.

Well, he was supporting Dublin but he’s fully on the Donegal bandwagon now.

Donegal are a good enough team that they don’t require any extra-terrestrial help to defeat Kerry today, but just in case they did, Superman is on his way to Croke Park to get behind Jim McGuinness’ men.

The Superman in question might look an awful lot like Buster Brady from Mrs. Brown’s Boys (played by Danny O’Carroll, a Dub now exiled in Donegal) but don’t let that fool you, it’s Superman alright and he’s shamelessly hopping aboard the Donegal bandwagon just in time for the big day.

Rumour has it that this particular Superman’s Kryptonite is located solely in James O’Donoghue’s left foot and the outcome of today’s game could well be decided by which of O’Donoghue or Donegal’s real-life Superman, Michael Murphy, has more of an influence on today’s proceedings.

We can’t wait to find out.
