Shane Walsh has credited Pádraic Joyce for infusing Galway with the belief that they can go all the way in this year’s Championship.
Galway take on Armagh in the All-Ireland quarter-final on Sunday and the way the draw has panned out presents a rare opportunity for them, Derry, Clare and Kieran McGeeney’s men, who are the most recent finalist (2003) of the four on that side.
It’s 2001 since Galway won an All-Ireland, with current boss Joyce starring, and they’ve only been to a single semi-final since but that hasn’t stopped them entertaining thoughts of bridging the 21-year gap.
