@EwanMacKenna That disallowed goal for Croatia is a disgraceful call

The past 12 months after very little excitement in previous 20 years towards teams i support has seen Leitrim Gaels win Senior Champ (1st ever), Arsenal win Prem (1st since 2004) and now the Knicks on verge of winning NBA. Only Galway footballers and Czech Rep denied dream year..

@Sakaextra2 Lehmann and Gnabry

@LeGrove Pain is only a symptom so the old he'd play through pain is stupidity dressed up as bravery. Serious injuries mean they must be almost 100% healed or its a repeat of same injury all over. Playing not at 100% is uncaptain like in my view

[Bryan Whitney @BryanPWhitney]

Mona McSharry, Neil Jordan, Johnny Kenny, William Butler Yeats and Westlife your boys took a hell of a beating. #Leitrim #GAA

@EwanMacKenna Sums the feeling i think most of us have really well.

@fintancox It took Kieran McGeeney 10 yrs to build that Armagh team. It wont be done the way players fall off in Leitrim. OMadden, K Beirne, R Oberwan, David Bruen, D Casey, J Heslin, P Dolan, M Plunkett, J Reynolds, P Keaney etc all not playing when in their prime are huge losses

@JoeMaso99957266 @ricokelly14 @EwanMacKenna But they are not. The players train, diet etc but honestly a lot is done at home with 3 meet ups a week. A county manager has to organise those, book pitches, coaches, dietitians, S&C, deal with player issues, deal with Co Board, keep everything in synch, and more.

@EwanMacKenna Its truly awful what you are going through. Stay fighting and we know you have the battling quality within you to overcome it.

@ballsdotie David Regan, not Reilly.

[Bryan Whitney @BryanPWhitney]

@EwanMacKenna I'd disagree that we are celebrating failure,national pastime is becoming a nation of Dunphys. Nothing against Eamon by the way or you as that is your job but a slob at a bar running down players who are being beaten by superior teams does reek of irony and that's all I hear.

@FedUpDad4 @EwanMacKenna None of the 4 males I know that had MND ever played rugby. More to it than that sadly.

[Bryan Whitney @BryanPWhitney]

@EwanMacKenna It truly is an awful condition. Saw it first hand with a relative followed by 3 neighbours. One of my neighbours has survived with a slow acting form of MND. But the other 3 males were gone within 12 months and had a very sad demise towards the end.

@indepdubnrth I think you are over playing power of rte, let alone radio or regular tv. Social media influences a larger swathe of voters i am willing to bet. But I do get your basic point.

[Bryan Whitney @BryanPWhitney]

@ainemoiramac @docrussjackson @5haronl The GDP skews figures badly creating a false narrative. It is had an income of 100k per year and my neighbours is 10k, our GDP is 55k. Really doesn't reflect the reality of how I and my neighbour earn.
