I found Andrews to be a bit of a wanker the couple of times I came across him.
Edit; as @Spidey mentioned, there was booze involved at the time
I could see it now, @peddlerscross launched into lauding the porter laureate pisshead, before regaling them with tales of John Delaney and got sent on his way very quickly.
That’s not what happened but you’ve a good imagination I’ll give you that. And the world would be nowhere without imagination.

Ooooft. Nerve touched…
What was that over? He’s grand on the OTB podcast but I’d prefer James O’ Donoghue and Tommy Rooney. There’s always a sense that Andrews is bluffing somewhat and doesn’t have as deep a knowledge of football as the other two boys. I think he’s been criticised on here before for not being an overly great club man.
Ah twas nothing really. It was about the Glazers.
McCaffrey was on the 7AM Ryanair flight back to Dublin.

I hope you were defending Joel Glazers honour.
He flew from Mulligan s to Manchester last night and back to Dublin this morning?
He was spotted in Mulligan’s bar IN Manchester NOT Poolbeg Street, was my take on this matter.

The footix expect you to differentiate between the Mulligan’s more familiar to you and some Oirish themed place on the mainland.

The fairly logical assumption was they were drinking in a mulligans in manchester. Fagan was just being a cranky fucker

I joined my fellow detritus in this series of happenings called life in Supermacs, Liberty Square, Thurles (probably the grimmest of all Supermacs) this evening to treat the family to a pizza for tea. I was mulling over the Papa John’s pizza menu, made my decision and joined the other clientele in the queue to place my order. As the server called for the next person, I turned around to see who would step forward and former Tipperary hurler Paul Kelly let me know to me to “go ahead StoneCold, skin, I’ve ordered already”.
I thanked him and went forward to complete my order, turned around and exchanged pleasantries with Paul, who I worked with during a summer job about 20 years ago. He was in good spirits and joined by his partner for a bit of fast food. He was dressed in a PK initialed maroon trimmed O;Neill’s GAA hoodie but I paid no heed to the crest on it. Our interaction was disturbed by some 50 year old, urine soaked, rummy, gravelly voiced Liverpool footix who entered the premises with a guttural “hon the Pool”, much to the amusement of some clientele and chagrin of the rest of us and the staff. It just goes to show you just cannot avoid footixness in Oireland no matter how hard you try.
I bade farewell to Paul and went to my seat to await my order.

Probably the best entry in this thread thus far.
Edit: @StoneCold also had a great Big Rob Ryan spot in the past.

Christ I’m nowhere near 50. Maybe my e-personality reads older than I am. I did play 50+ matches this year though. A productive 12 months on the sporting front.

Met Paddy Mullen who seems to be doing a bit of work around Wexford a fair bit over the last year or so yesterday, followed by Red Barry in the space of a few mins. Paddy seems like a very affable fella, along with Red. This was in my place of work mind.
I came up to the capital today to meet some friends, drink some pints and visit some cathedrals to soak in the Christmas spirit.
I half expected a Celeb Spot or two but it came in the most unlikely spot. While waiting for a taxi in Clonskeagh in mid afternoon we popped in to O’Shea’s for one.
Who was supping away a few mid afternoon pints only Jack (Jaques) (Jacquo) Nienbarr, newly appointed Leinster Rugby Football Coach and recent Rugby World Cup winner.
There was no one around and we got chatting. A sound fella. We asked how he was settling in and he said it was grand. He lived here before when involved with Munster. I had no idea of this. We shot the breeze for a little while congratulating him on his recent success obviously not knowing too much about the old Ruuugggbbbyyy.
As we were leaving i just said in a lovely affable manner, “Beauden should have kicked it”. Well he could have fallen off his chair chuckling away to himself. He’d have chatted for the evening I’d say. We wished him well against Munster next week and parted on astonishingly good terms.
I reckon he’s a serious operator and will place a huge bet on Leinster to win this Champions Cup outright tomorrow. God knows after the Ballygunner debacle at the weekend, i could do with a decent Long term punt. My great friend @Fat_Pox might not be happy with the Rugby Football angle but anyway…
