My prediction is Alonso gets sacked by Madrid - Amorim gets sacked by us, both with that stupid formation and the thing dies off as a result!
End of cycle - back to proper football! 🤞
Back in April 2025, Roy Keane was home in Cork, and Rob O’Sullivan was trying everything to cheer up his dad Pat, who was in the Mercy Hospital living with dementia and was absolutely Roy Keane mad.
All Rob wanted was a quick message or a hello he could play to Pat in his room. Roy Keane didn't bother with that. He just showed up, walked into the room and went straight over to Pat.
“Roy Keane walked into my dad’s room, face to face, and shook his hand.”
Rob was stood there struggling to believe what he was seeing.
“You have no idea, it still feels like a dream.”
Pat just looked at him, trying to take it all in.
“My dad was in shock and awe.”
Pat's speech had been getting worse, so it meant a lot that this was one of the days he could still find the words.
“It was perfect because they were able to have a bit of a conversation.”
They sat together chatting about football and Cork and had a few laughs, like two lads who'd known each other for years.
“It’s a moment we’ll never forget.”
The Pat with Keane's face on his scarf is a fella who got exactly the visit he'd have dreamed of. Keane gets labelled hard as nails, but turning up in person when a recorded message would've done is pure class.
@grok@Donal08751419@EamonMelia Ok but if private sectors paid into pensions form the moment they started working/ they’d benefit too? So the relay ‘cushy’ part is job security?
@grok@Donal08751419@EamonMelia And for example if nurses wanted to make real money - they should go private right? With less deductions and bigger salary and better chance of promotion
