    Fair f***s!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 724 ✭✭✭JK.BMC


    Dundalk FC

    Team of the Year

    "It's amazing really..."

    Well that's an understatement


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,930 ✭✭✭PeterTheEighth


    Surely somebody has filled them in about Andy Lee???


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 724 ✭✭✭JK.BMC


    I think Lewis Hamilton's Car should win sports personality of the year.
    Or maybe Venus William's tennis racket.

    At this rate anything is possible


  • Registered Users Posts: 118 ✭✭WearstheFoxhat


    Maybe Arlene Foster?

  • Registered Users Posts: 33,730 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    oh well, Kilkenny will just have to win the hurling again next year and eventually we might win the team award.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,435 ✭✭✭delaad


    A genuine World Champion!


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,730 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    Were some of the people weak, as they mentioning how heavy the trophies were.

    Dundalk are much more worthy winners. What Stephen Kenny has done with them has been amazing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 724 ✭✭✭JK.BMC


    Yes, kudos to the world champion in the audience. Would have been fairly disgraceful to give it some bogballer or muck-savage with a hurl.... or god bless us all, a foreigner :)

    And at least they play more than one sport in Louth!

    Yeah, this is the one Brian Cody really wants.

    :D

    Team 8. Men's hockey team. They achieved what no Irish hockey team has achieved before. None of the other teams can say that. They have set up a great future for Irish hockey.

    Rather surprised Conor McGregor didn't win the main award. I like Conlon but McGregor is way more high profile these days......I'm guessing there's scarcely a kid or teenager in the country who knows Conlon is.

    That's a pretty ignorant insult to the likes of Henry Shefflin. Michael Conlan deserves the individual award. He would be my choice. But I can say it without being boorish.

    i'd say the fact that tv3 have the ufc fights is part of the reason

    He was born in Portadown, Co Armagh, but raised in Ballymena, Antrim. Antrim at its closest point is 13 miles from Scotland.

    We'll leave it at that for the minute.

    I thought he was a Nordie, but he seemed to have a Scottish accent, actually looking at Wikipedia he played in Scotland for a few years that probably explains the accent.

    Pathetic stuff, not surprised though.

    Yes, you may well be right there.

    Listen to any teenagers talking and it's all McGregor, McGregor, McGregor.....they wouldn't have the slightest clue who Conlon was.

    Norn Iron Soccer team will walk away with the team award.

    Dundalk winning was another surprise for me, wouldn't have predicted them at all (would have thought they would have been too low profile to win an award such as this, despite their excellent season).

    Do you not know where Portadown is, or Ballymena for that matter?
