    He's already well hung.

    He must have some serious pair of stones on him writing sports, even if it is for a newspaper I wouldnt wipe my arse with.

    Does this really matter?

    Sports punditry/journalism is valueless garbage anyway.

    And most celebrity sports writers get plenty of assistance when "writing" their columns ...

    Here's a nice screencapture from the ad :D

    He could start his own problem page where people write in for advice.

    Dear Bertie,
    I'm worried about the current economic climate, I fear we are in the midst of a property bubble and if we don't act now it will have devastating consequences for our country,
    Yours etc

    Dear Inda,
    Go commit suicide.

    He's been doing it for ages now. Its really cringeworthy. He is the king of the barstool premier league fans.

    Has this being going on for a while???

    Apparently writing on sport.......well at least it is not politics I suppose.

    And on a side issue have you seen the ad for the News of the World?? Some young wun opens her press door and Bertie Ahern is sitting in there drinking a cup of tea. Stuff of nightmares I tells you.

    This is the man who wants to be our next President. Classy.

    And your point is?????

    On the subject, Bertie has been demonstrating for some time that he never really had the class to be a good Taoiseach as is being now proven with the state of our economy.

    ah you have to love Bertie, he's a man having the banter, the type of ex-Taoiseach you could go for a few pints with.
