Hi Frank,

You never know what's around the corner. Sad news indeed.
May be going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride.

Very sad to read about the death of Dave Billings. A lovely guy. He was in my class in Joey's in 1971 and was a great character. RIP Dave.

Dublin GAA and beyond is in mourning following the sudden death of Dave Billings.

Billings, renowned as a hugely affable character, was a part of Dublin's panel in 1974 when they won a breakthrough All-Ireland under Kevin Heffernan but it was perhaps in his role as a GAA officer in UCD and a selector with Dublin senior football teams in more recent years that he will be best remembered.

St Vincent's man was part of management teams under Tommy Lyons and Paul Caffrey as Dublin reasserted their dominance in Leinster, winning five provincial titles between 2002 and '08.

His tireless work in UCD meant that a broad section of hurlers and footballers from across the country passed through his hands at Belfield and there was a massive outpouring of emotion and affection for the 63-year-old on Twitter as news of his passing broke this morning.

They were the better team ,The Dubs had no plan B ,were doing well until Donegal came out to play ,if we only put one off our goal chances away i think the game would have been ours ,,lots of if,s .I hope they go on to win against Kerry now ,the shock of this summer
