Significant people's (not celebrities) deaths

It’s (not really) remarkable that our clubbing careers had a significant overlap. For near a decade, through the turn of the millennium, it was rare that you’d be on a night out in Clones, Monaghan or Carrick and you wouldn’t see either myself or Sir Jack*.

*A basic grasp of numbers would suggest it wasn’t that rare, but we were both known to frequent multiple venues on a night out.

The Romanian football enthusiasts of Yaoundé would suggest otherwise pal.

And while not a significant individual, if you removed the blinkers, you would realise that Pat is the latest statistic in the increasingly significant issue surrounding cardiac arrest of professional sportspeople. In the last 10 years, the number of recorded heart failures on the soccer pitch is three times the number of the preceeding 57 years.

But as long as Pat wasn’t pictured in the “Out & About” section of the Leitrim Observer, he clearly doesn’t warrant mention.

Look Kiddo, I don’t give a flying fuck whether you’re sympathetic to these Romanian people(s) or not.
The deceast is a no-mark.

Are you kidding me?

After that outburst at poor @Brimmer_Bradley, you produce this? Put the drink down ol’ pal.

And while we’re at it, empathy, as opposed to sympathy, would be more accurate in describing my feelings towards these Romanian people(s).

The shambolic Governmental set-up, allied to copious glasses of whikky had me rattled.

That Grundy was some man to come up with television programmes, he developed wheel of fortune and blankety blank before he ever got into drama.
I couldn’t give a shit about Neighbours but prisoner cell block h was a cracking show.

Jack Boothman, RIP.
