I find myself in agreement with most of those I read. I also read his Twitter feed for entertainment, the replies to which do not nothing to disprove my own dislike for the majority of Irish rugby supporters.

Then again, I dislike the vast majority of people!LOL

His twitter feed is gold.

I have only read his pieces on rugby and football and find him wonderfully amusing.

Dublin footballer who was stabbed in the neck in a random attack a few years ago.

Didn’t imply Lowry is a fascist anywhere in that tweet.. see nothing wrong with it tbh. 

Edit: on second reflection I have no idea what that tweet means? Is he quoting Lowry? I’d be more concerned about his misuse of quotation marks

Jack Grealish is a far bigger loss to us than Declan Rice.

I like Jack Grealish and wish him the best in his career, and if that means plenty of England caps with England good luck to him Thumbs Up

Everything above is completely opposite when it comes to Declan Rice Angry

Agreed. He didn't win journalist of the year for nothing. Obviously he winds the Dubs up no end and they judge him through hate filled eyes but he's actually quite decent. 

His awards speak for themselves. He is a good journalist. But I find his articles easy to pick apart.
 
This is contradictory but not sure if you meant it given the idiot we are talking about. I don't bother reading any articles by him due to his Twitter which I know is brash to get attention but is full of untruths and easily proven wrong - which I and others have done many times.

Sports punditry is boring and pointless and I would very very rarely watch the pre, half time or post match talk when watching a match. 

Pierre Aymeric Aubemayang is over rated. He does absolutely nothing in a lot of games. 

Despite being unbeaten and top of the league, Liverpool haven’t been that good this season yet

I believe that the word ‘pundit’ comes from Sanskrit and meant ‘learned man’. The fact that the term is being used for My Cologne and Rio Ferdinand suggests we may have gone wrong somewhere.

Agreed with the first and it's not an unpopular opinion.

The second opinion is nonsense. A huge number of forwards do nothing in games; it's what they do when they have the ball that counts and he scores and scores a lot.
