@holland_tom On ‘Childbirth’ ep
Brigid, who you valiantly put forward for World Cup of gods to keep us Irish happy, is said to have been transported to Bethlehem to serve as midwife to Mary
Thought that might be of interest to you,& your wife!
Absolutely incredible.
Ireland beat the defending World Cup champions New Zealand 29-27.
Erin King with a try after 78mins, Dannah O’Brien with the winning conversion.
Aoife Wafer player of the match.
Sensational team performance.
@davidbgeary @DublinAirport@ShannonAirport Hey hey. When travelling from Galway, I default to Dublin, as no guarantee of bus services to Shannon for early morning flight, or late return. Just easier to book from Dub. Of course I’d travel from more local airport if I felt confident about the surrounding services
@CTribune In the morning, Shop Street is used by private cars for parking, and by cars just driving through. Even allowing for the necessity of deliveries, these cars could all be removed, extending the life-span of whatever surface is laid
The last few months for Irish football:
- Sacked Stephen Kenny last November
- FAI takes 7 months to find replacement
- 4 friendlies in that time for John O’Shea to audition for the job
- End up hiring their “first-choice” manager who happens to be a dentist
- Heimir decides he doesn’t know enough about the players so doesn’t pick squad/team or do all the press conferences
- 0 goals in 180 minutes
- 4 goals conceded
- No clear structure on pitch
- Facing Nations League relegation
- Can only buy tickets in three-match bundles
Meanwhile, the League of Ireland champions get just over €100k for winning it. They also rely on European revenue where games don’t even get shown on Irish TV. Only country in Europe that happens in.
It’s no exaggeration to say that the FAI have well and truly failed Irish football.
What a mess.
