Calm down Squidward. I asked a simple question as I was hoping there was a performance I couldn’t find.

Nearly as ridiculous as his point about Jack Charlton making a huge mistake omitting Roy Keane from Ireland’s squad for Italia '90.

or him up in arms about his rural village being flooded & then yammering on about the best airport lounge he has been in

or saying that Trappatoni should be sacked for not building a team around conor clifford

or his advocacy for FOBTS

or the jogging pram

or the car park porn

Very little Christmas spirit on display in here.

Squidward decided to take a few cheap shots which I couldn’t let go unresponded

If Fairytale of New York wasn’t going to make it to No 1 this Christmas, it never will.

What prompted the wham love in, the Netflix documentary?

“I sat for a while by a gap in the wall, found a rusty tin can and an old hurley ball, heard the cards being dealt and the rosary called and a fiddle playing Sean Dún na nGall”

Well in.

Your respect for Shane would only heighten even further when you’d read that he refused to give Ray Darcy an interview back in 2001. Darcy arranged for him to come and visit his mother who was a huge fan. It was basically an elaborate attempt at engineering an exclusive interview with McGowan. He told Darcy to jog on when he attempted to start an interview. I’d say Darcy is very needy.

Lovely tribute from Pogueology at the picnic last night. Shane himself was on stage with them once, a great outfit.

With his councillors hat rather than the pub, which was never his thing really by all accounts
