Just thinking there to myself. I’d actually love it if Katie Taylor wins Ireland’s greatest sporting moment.
It would be gas so it would.

Selecting a goal in an Eire soccer game between the two teams that failed to advance from the group stages is a strange selection compared against the other four selected - three who achieved the world pinnacle in their chosen sports and the most famous and iconic winning score in an All Ireland Final against the history chasing greatest ever Gaelic football team.

That’s a bit like comparing getting a pass in a PhD in mathematics to getting a distinction in a FAS course in hairdressing or something.

It’s Eire soccer types celebrating also ran status and non winning of silverware compared against real success in the other four featured.

First ever game in a major tournament, famous if fortunate win against the old enemy, a great great day

The old enemy? About half of of the starting Eire XI from England and most of the Eire team playing for clubs in England. More a case of a good neighbour than an old enemy.

It’s not a great sporting moment for the players mate, it was for the ordinary sports fan, surely you realise that Irish people enjoy beating England at sports?

An oirish team full of English men managed by English man. Ireland’s greatest sporting achievement. You couldn’t make it up

They include Roche but won’t include the Olympic swimmer from 1996.

Complete hypocrisy.
