Indeed. I always felt it was the most apt of GAA club names.

Male adult teenager ? So they are 18 ?
 
I wonder what the excuse will be
drunk/on medication
wasn't him
his pet dog typed it

He said he was hacked. Given you can easily check your login activity on Instagram, he better hope he was.

The language used was very North American so it's certainly possible, however as you say it should be easy enough for them to figure out either way.

Why would someone hack a Tralee kid's Instagram account from North America to abuse Ian Wright?  If he was hacked by anyone it would be some other young lad that knows him.
The language used, apart from being appalling, is just a further example of the loss of variation in English. He probably has that accent that's halfway between Dingle and Delaware too. When I hear young Irish people now I have to listen closely as they all sound like Yanks.

I accept it's unlikely but you'd be surprised. When I was younger I knew this lad who was a 'computer whizz', as my folks might say, and he hacked some random kid in Canada and did a fair amount of damage to him 'for the laugh'. And especially during this lockdown there's a lot of very bored people out there with time on their hands for this stuff. Again it's obviously far more likely this isn't the case, but I wouldn't be ruling it out entirely.

The "cotton farming" slur seemed a bit odd alright, not something I'd have thought an Irishman abusing an Englishman would have gone to.

He’s saying on his Instagram that an apology and explanation video is coming soon
He’s started a countdown clock to it

Has also said that it’s true he wasn’t hacked

Unless this is him still being hacked....

Good to see that he's not enjoying the notoriety that this has brought him.

For the racism or for having a countdown to his explanation? I feel they should be treated separately.
