Paddy Cullen RIP | "God, wasn't I lucky"...

OTB Sports
About this episode

Three-time All Ireland-winning goalkeeper Paddy Cullen has died at the age of 80.

Back in 2004, and ahead of the All Ireland quarter-final clash of Kerry and Dublin, Paddy joined Ger Gilroy to discuss Dublin's special rivalry with the Kingdom, and his own role in that.

Paddy also reflected on his time as Dublin manager.

All of our thoughts at Off The Ball are with Paddy's family, friends and former teammates. RIP.
