The noise made when you click your fingers isn't actually the noise of your fingers sliding together but the noise of your index finger hitting the tendon to your thumb

Might be an addressing issue. I had someone send me an important document from London a few weeks ago that took 2 weeks because they addressed it to 'Dublin, Northern Ireland' Angry

Ulster people tend to use "off" for "of" and "where" for "were" on a very regular basis......

Ah for sure that some people just can't tell the difference LOL

But from talking to a good few Nordies on Twitter and reading Tweets from the likes of McClean, Duffy, Frampton, McGinn etc they all seem to use "off" regularly for "of"

Don't know where you got that from. Donegal is the 4th largest county in Ireland, Cavan is the 19th.

Can't believe I only found this out now.
I watched that Espn documentary last night 9.79

I don't think he has never come out, not that it matters. He is in the Colin Jackson/Mark Lawrenson camp of 'he has to be'.
I learned that Colin has decided to point out the obvious, over to you Mark!
