Who is someone you inexplicably can't stand?

She and her team can rent Croke Park just like any other sport/band can…. As long as they pay the venue fee & associated costs…

It seems though Taylor and her manager want the Irish taxpayer to take the gamble by paying for this farce, while reaping none of the benefits (if it ends up a success)….

she’s not even from Dublin so why doesn’t she do her big fight in her hometown. At the Carlisle Grounds?

I don’t vote for any of the Government parties but I swear to the magical sky fairy if this goes ahead with taxpayer funds being used, it will be the first stick I use to beat the pr1ckş with when they come knocking on my door looking for a vote…

Sport Ireland probably sponsors it as it's good for the country as a whole as anything that advertises Irish golf to a wider audience attracts tourists who come here to play golf. Irish golf provides a lot of tourists for the country

I flew home from Toronto recently and there were probably 20 golf bags on the baggage claim carousel for my flight.

Hazel Irvine.. just bugs me

I suggest you listen to the Second Captains podcast on it.

They’re not seeking funding from the government this time around, not sure where this narrative is coming from.

Neale Richmond TD. I know people can say that about nearly every TD, but I find the man slightly patronising whenever I hear him speak. Malcolm Byrne would be similar as well, I find.

Ken Doherty - met him at a snooker exhibition in Goffs a few years back, and he came across as very smug and arrogant.

No I didn’t , however initially they tried to game poor Pat for security expenses.

When that was rejected and they realised that this was a dead duck they tried to alter the narrative.

Good and all as she was, and she was good, Taylor is now well past a saleable commodity wh could fill Croke Park on

her own bill.

It’s what commercial sense is telling us.

You could buy a house for 30 p.

To expand on this. People who engage with their posts and say things like "stopped 5 years ago, complete waste of time and money, can't understand how anyone can like it"

Easy, because we get to a certain point with it in a night, and say that's enough. Something these people couldn't do and think their way is how everyone drinks. I'm sorry you can't have a beer or two some weekends without drinking until you're crippled the next day with it. Some of us engage with it socially and have great memories with it, but respect it for what it is.

To add my own thing, people who embarrass others on social media by recording them unwittingly or talking about them 2nd hand, like after a date. The concept of dignity and privacy has eluded these people. They're just desperate losers will commodify anything happening in their life for needy validation online and put it under "not that serious". Yeah, that's the problem you thick cnt, nothing ever is with you lot.

Steve K - Spin 1038.

Sometimes people mistake shy people for arrogance.

Same here. Saw him at Dublin airport some time ago, checking in at the same time as me, he was very friendly to everyone around him including the staff. Everyone has their off days alright.

The thing about Katie Taylor for me is I thought she always batted for the other team if you know what I mean. If I’d known she was into fellas, I would have made a move on her ages ago. Now she’s settled down some evangelical American fella and a pile of his kids, not hers. Really bizarre

She’s good looking, would be deadly in the sack no doubt & is loaded. She could have had any fella, sickening
