You need to compartmentalise things (or not, I canât remember which )
Nah. Iâm legend at that. 5 years of this and itâs very rare something comes home with me emotionally. Thatâs pretty good for someone running their own business.

The NY Times are firmly in Tail between Legs mode. They seem to be pressing the âResetâ button following their controversial approach to covering the US Presidential election.
Due to her fatherâs work commitments I attended an inter-schools girls U-12 match yesterday. Please bear in mind that the G/D in question turns 10 next month and wasnât familiar with any of her team mates.
First impressions were dreadful. More black SUVâs than a Trump cavalcade surrounding the pitch.
Youthful Mommies clutching coffee cups bedecked in furry looking anoraks screaming at every fumble made by Hollieeee, Zooooie and the coup de gras Willow. Fucks sake.
The opposition possessed a Francie Bellew type full back which augured badly at the outset for my protegee who appeared to be the lone striker. The younger Boxtyette however dispossed the mullocker (albeit dubiously) on the stroke of half time to stroke a green flagâŠ
Boxtyette continued to make Canavan-esque runs but the telling ball failed to materialised until with 5 to go she found a yard and with a quick step off (Paraic Joyce AIF '98 anyone) threaded the leather home.
They were beaten by about 20 points but this is where the shit really started. The fucking MĂșinteĂłir gathered them together and praised them to the roof as âMommiesâ enthused their offspring.
I managed a loud Harrumph which drew attention from many, the MĂșinteĂłir included.
She proceeded to disband proceedings in an orderly fashion while carefully cutting across my exit strategy.
Inquiring about my status as she eulogised the Boxtyette, I calmly pointed out the faults in such an exercise as praising them in the face of a 20 point deficit in a match where they were totally outclassed. Telling them they were brilliant when they were shit or terminology to that effect was the thrust of my comments.
Funnily, the Boxtyette (she scooped 2XâŹ5 ) for goals scored saw the point of it and complained that she knew none of the other players.
Her dad, herself and myself replayed it in our heads afterwards and we all agreed - they were shit.
Itâs like giving awards to Mayo cunts - wasted on the fuckers.

Fuckin gilroy is seething on twitter,
So fuckit. Letâs kill the oppositions best players and assume a 70-30 likelihood you get away with it. High risk. High reward. #legacy
Seriously, if youâre coaching any team now in any sport, why the fuck would you play to the rules? The world treats you like a patsy.

Didnât have ref mic but I did get the World Rugby email about foul-play; armless tackles and red cards. Henshaw knocked out and nothingâŠ
Wtf?

Youâre lucky to have the tennis and yacht clubs adjacent to you buddy.
On the plus side sheâll be able to collect me from the pub next year in the car.

Where did this happen chief
Down the country a bit.
Expect Ballinamore to rattle Westport tomorrow. 7/2 with PP.
I hope they do,Westport donât seem to be big scorerâs, will they put young McGovern on him or McKeown, better off leaving McKeon free I think

Gilroy is still at it.
Heâd want to shut his hole now at this stage. He was going on last week about how the population of New Zealand were going berserk because the Irish beat them. Imagine how his sore loser waffle is being laughed at by the same New Zealanders, not that too many of them would be bothered by Gilroy
So your message is that âchampionsâ and âwinnersâ are snowflakes?
Has anyone had the balls to call Gilroy out? I know a fella whoâd do it in a heartbeat.
Someone did.
