For all the insufferable Irish sports journalists having a meltdown about Ireland playing Israel;
You reported on world cups in Qatar and Russia. Olympics in Beijing and Socchi. You follow football clubs owned by the UAE. Irish sports teams have played against China & Iran...

15th September 2002 and Dublin born Robbie Keane makes his debut against West at White Hart Lane.

He doesn't score but would go on to net 122 goals in 306 matches across 2 spells.

Just 11 players have scored more for the club.

https://t.co/sPfbhO45KF My album Hit Parade came out 2 years ago today, in the middle of a controversy. Having been told previously by music journalists that it was already “album of the year” when the controversy broke I was instructed by the same people to admit “ignorance” and apologise or face a drop in scores. These messages were passed on to me by my then record label, Ninja Tune. I have the receipts. This is not journalism or criticism, it’s authoritarianism. The record did indeed suffer revised scores across the board and was left off the end of year lists. It wasn’t just upsetting for me but also very frightening to see how the whole of the music media, in tandem, were able and willing to punish a work of art for the sake of activism. To say I’ll never be the same again is an understatement. Props to The Guardian for not changing the 5 star score. But the piece itself is rotten to the core. And the record was never again mentioned by them, I really hope one day that changes.

Hi, @BarclaysUKHelp

I have a transaction of around £800 coming out of my account in June 2025 from West Ham United with the reference “season ticket”.

I would like to report this transaction as fraud and get my money back. Please see to this with complete urgency.

Thank you!

We should have a ‘government funded’ label or symbol on social media for Irish media outlets that receive government funding. The pretend impartiality and objectivity is, well, pretend.

Many Irish commentators on Twitter are very good at holding US and British politicians to account…our own? Not so much. 🤷‍♂️

It is with profound sadness that RTÉ announces the death of radio presenter and actor Seán Rocks. Seán died last night following a brief illness at the age of 63. 

Well-known to listeners all over Ireland and the world, Seán presented RTÉ Radio 1’s nightly arts and culture magazine, Arena, since its inception in 2009, and recently presented a Sunday afternoon programme back on RTÉ lyric fm, where his radio career began in 2000. 

Originally starting as a presenter with RTÉ lyric fm in 2000, where he fronted a number of shows, Seán moved to RTÉ Radio 1 in 2009 to helm the station’s new weekly arts and culture programme, Arena. Hugely well regarded for his public interviews - with authors such as Salman Rushdie, Edna O’Brien, and Roddy Doyle, and actors such as Rupert Everett, Martin Sheen and Brendan Gleeson, he was equally beloved of listeners for his wide-ranging studio interviews, with composers and playwrights, authors and filmmakers and songwriters.  

Hugely versatile, Seán also guest-presented, produced, and wrote several series for the national broadcaster. He won a Silver Medal at the New York Festival of Radio for the documentary Soul of Ireland for BBC Radio 4. 

Seán worked extensively as an actor both at home and abroad, appearing at the Abbey, Peacock, and Gate Theatres and with many important independent companies including Rough Magic, Druid and Field Day, and at the Royal Court, National, Donmar Warehouse and Tricycle theatres in London. His television and film roles included The Bill, Glenroe, Fair City, Dear Sarah and Go Now. 

Seán was MC at the State Banquet for the visit of Queen Elizabeth II to Ireland and at several important state events at Áras an Uachtaráin.  

Seán is survived by his beloved Catherine and sons Christian and Morgan.

May he rest in peace.
