Feels just like being there.
That is absolutely hilarious. And even while making it up based on the scoreline, he still gets the report wrong (Glen winning by a point, when they won by four).
That’s true, but not everyone can write a match report for a game they weren’t at.
That’s what sorts the men from the boys.
Edit. It’s early. Apologies. I missed your obvious point

Poor fare here from Philip.
The low point being the reference to Noonan as a one time deputy leader and ignoring the face that he was once party leader.
Woeful article from Kimmage today with Mayo fans. He can add another chapter next week.,
It was terrible stuff

No doubt the pinko tree huggers lapped it up.
Awful rubbish
Jones is a bit of a snowflake but AC epitomises cuntishness .

Aside from infrastructure, hotels and facilities, we have everything else
We have all the intangibles, pal, all the stuff that you can’t put a price on, bonhomie, craic, poetry, links with the diaspora in the USA, that will give the professional game the breakthrough there, culture.

Not having rugby grounds is the biggest stumbling block for me.
Nice picture!!!
There were grass banks in some of the NZ stadiums
