"Make signings!" Everton Interested in Grealish "NOT HIM!" Everton social media, sensational stuff.

The management of David Clifford’s game time this year is a good example. Paudie as well. If you can do it then why not. Munster doesn’t have much prestige left surely? That Cork and yourselves are seeded now to boost the attendance for the...

100% mate. Look Kerry are a fine footballing county. They’ve produced some great players. But they like to portray themselves as purists, like our good friend above who maligning Northern teams in his post. The thing is Kerry are as cynical...

We were out for a nice drive today in Cos Tipperary and Limerick and saw a signpost for EFFIN. Kid you not. A really bad example of trying lazily to Anglicize the original Gaelic Irish local name of Eimhin (pronounced Evin) who was an early...
