Interview here:
Just listened to that now, the bit where Gilroy calls him out on his Prime Time bluff is excellent.
In fairness to Gilroy he had excellent command of all the details and really didnât back down from McQuaid. Quite impressive.
Very impressive-he doesnât seem to be well liked on here but I think he is an alright sort. He can speak knowledgeably on just about any sport when he is interviewing people.
Yep that was impressive from him alright. No idea why McQuaid went on, he was always going to be attacked. Incidentally, Newstalk have signed Kimmage for the summer to cover Le Tour.
I bought Seven Deadly Sins today and will start it tonight even though Walsh is kind of pissing me off of late.
Kimmage had prepped the OTB lads extensively prior to previous cycling interviews I believe. Probably he same here
Quality stuff alright. McQuaid comes across as a snakey cunt.
Kimmageâs article in the Sindo today is a cracker. Like the big pieces he used to do in the ST and really get to the heart of stuff. Essentially about Dan Martin and how Dan Martins father has fallen out with Stephen Roche (his brother in law).
Yeah, it read like there is no love lost there. Kimmage happy to fan the flames.
Froome crashed in the neutral zone this morning. Cuts and bruises, but hardly a good omen to go down before the race even starts.
Eurosportâs coverage isnât the same without David Harmon, Kirbyâs cuntishness is hard to take in large doses

Yerra, there will be a lot of crashes in the next couple of days. Not so sure about Froomeâs roadcraft though. He is a manufactured rider like Wiggins.
Thereâs a bus stuck under the finish line!
Jesus, Hoogerland has no luck on Le Tour
Hesjedal gone down with a handful of others
Christ almighty, what a cock up to start the 100th edition. Finish moved 3km in as some retard driving the Orica bus gets stuck under the ArrivĂŠ gantry
A big crash. Sagan gone down. Greipel punctured now. Total fuck up at the finish, the bus is pushed back off the line now.
Give Cav the jersey.
Kittel wins from a small bunch. No sign of Cav. Contador lost time. Wonder what they give them all the same finishing time because of the crashes?
That was fantastic viewing
I love the first week of the Tour.
