Ireland's Greatest Sporting Moment 1962-2012

Wasn’t there a sweaty sock also involved ?

They couldn’t have ignored Roche, he’s never been caught up to no good? Though I realise the weight of evidence is strong.
His 87 was the greatest achievement ever by an Irishman

Incorrect. An Italian inquiry found him guilty but could not press charges as the statute of limitations had expired.

You do realise the swimmer has never been stripped of her medals and was only found guilty of tampering with a test don’t you?

Of course, but tampering with a test was quite a strange thing to do I’m sure you’ll agree and it cost her whatever shred of credibility she had remaining,
Roche hasn’t had that moment.

I’ll stick on Netflix at 9.30 so… I’ll get the whole show nicely summed up here for me later.

Big Jack, Niall Quinn and a hape of plastic paddies smashing the Harry Ramsdens challenge is one of Ireland’s genuine sporting moments.

Wrong again. He just been left off the hook left, right and centre.

How often do you hear him involved in coverage of Le Tour?

i’ll watch that

He said that was only for testing purposes. Move along.

She did not agree. From the article in question:

she nonetheless remains convinced that the defendants were guilty of the original charges, namely, “the carrying out of fraudulent acts intended to achieve, via the artificially effected improvement of athletic performances, a different result from that obtained from the correct and honest participation in events such as the Winter Olympics, World Championships, Giro d’Italia and Tour de France”.

Dunphy and Brolly sowing it into Barry McGuigan here. They’re basically saying he was shit

Dessie “but what about the crowds? Look at the crowds”?

Who was the lad sitting beside Giles in the studio in 1988?

Edit - Des just said it was Don Givens

Dunphy saying we beat a very good England team .

They were shite . Holland and CCCP filleted them in the next 2 games .

Who won?

The same team were cheated out of the WC in 86 by the dirty argies and lost on penalties in Italia 90. We had a great team back then.
