It matters so much to them that it can put them in bad form for a week or even a month but it's like a drug and even though it beats them up they'll keep coming back to for more because the old adage that they're only as good as their last game is driving them on.
Gaelic football mattered so much to Paul Galvin. So much that he did 100 press ups and sit ups in the toilets of the Bailey Pub in Cork in the middle of a night out because he was so desperate to come back from a shoulder operation stronger than he was before it.
The London footballers are in training at the moment for their first round of the football qualifiers which will take place over the next few weeks.
Manager Ciaran Deely had Paul Galvin over for a session with the Exiles recently and the 38-year-old Lixnaw native taught the London lads a lesson that he'd learned over the years.
The lesson is that practice is the most important thing and if you've to make sacrifices to get that practice in, such as buying a cheaper pair of boots, then you'd be best served making it.
