Alright Sort of the Year - 2012

Whyso dela for an alright sort?

Roberto Mancini

The late Jim Stynes

:clap:

i watched that documentary on him last night and I am not ashamed to say that I got misty eyed during it

I felt the same when watching it a few months ago or whenever RTE first showed it.

Apparently before he died he got rid of a load of his belongings and clothes to save his wife and family having to do it after he passed as he was worried it would be too big a task for them.

Don’t think a man who only lasted less than 1/4 of the year should be in the running for this come the end of the year TBF.

I don’t think your opinion matters TBF

it matters as much as anyone elses on here Mac. I was just making an observation.

Completely agree.

Gerry Ryan was a strong contender for COTY 2010 despite living for less than a third of that year.

Considering the doctors told him he would be dead two years ago, he did pretty well TBF.

Michael O’Leary

+1 despite his participation in the godawful industry that involves trying to get the most out of old rickety things in order to transport people as quickly as possible from point A to point B for his own profit.

Great shout.

:lol: Is it bad that I assumed you were talking about horse racing until I got to the transport people part of your sentence?

wtf did jim stynes do this year to deserve this award

survived a quater of the year seems to be the only thing

He hasn’t won it yet mate

Or was I?

The horse transports people Mac ( called a jockey) from point A (the start line) to point B (the finish line).
