So 20 minutes before the game, I said, 'Okay, Pat, I'm ready to get the injection'. He says, 'I don't give injections'. I said, 'What are you talking about?' He says, 'Charlie, I have never given a player a pain-killing injection and I never will, if you can't play put your track-suit on. If you can play then get out and play'. He knew by telling me I'd get an injection that I'd relax from the Friday or Saturday".[3] All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final
