In response to the previous pages if Hurling or Football were the worldwide sport instead of soccer you'd see far bigger interest in the national team. When a county match like Tipp and Galway or Limerick and Cork can bring 60-70k to croker for a semi final or 40k to Thurles for a Munster round Robin match you know which sport is bigger in terms of importance to the general public. Soccer has a big place in Ireland but sadly most of the love goes to the Premier league. The bandwagon we string together for major tournaments is admirable though.

You'll forgive me if I have anger issues offline, my father who I was a full time carer for died from hospital acquired Covid 14 days ago But sure now you're telling me how to live my life, I'm "bored" or something, perhaps I need to "get a life", and all because I made some perfectly legitimate posts which you got offended by What's your excuse for your anger issues, gaslighting issues and propensity for fake offence issues? Boredom is the least of them I'd say |

That Declan Lynch lad always seems to bring everything back to being an alcoholic. I dont read his articles regularly or anything but have read a couple over the years. I have seen him in clips for the Channel 4 Roy Keane documentary and Finding Jack Charlton. Both times he mentions being tormented In Finding Jack he says ''If Ireland was a person it would be a deeply tormented dysfunctional person'' FFS Declan what's your favourite sporting moment? DL: I'd have to say Alex Higgins being drunk as he was knocked out of the World Snooker Championships and he sat there in disarray, totally tortured, depressed. That reminds me. I have to get petrol ont he way home. My car is a deeply dysfunctional individual always looking for a drink. He can't stop one or two litres. He drinks a minimum of 20 litres in one go. I brought him to AA meetings with Conor Faughnan who told me there he couldn't help as he works for the Automobile Association. My car is fighting demons on a daily basis. He cant pass a garage without wanting a drink. Eh ok thanks Declan.

might be down to the fact he struggled with the drink himself and gave it up many years ago.
Excellent writer. Very strong on gambling too.

No he has written extensively about the terrible impact of gambling and the power and lack of responsibility the gambling companies take. Also a great book Tony 10 which I believe is going to be a film soon.
