The Sunday Game

Very good Jinxy

[twohands!!!]

On LMFM last Sunday, Stefan White in his half time analysis said the Louth defence was pedestrianised!

When an area is pedestrianised they usually put in those bollards that stop any vehicles from occupying that space, which meant that the Louth defence were unable to park the defensive bus.

On LMFM last Sunday, Stefan White in his half time analysis said the Louth defence was pedestrianised!

But that was nothing compared to last Saturday. I was in a house where they were watching Ireland v. Belgium on BBC and yer man Shearer announced at half time that there were "a few chinks in the Belgian defence". Is that the granny rule and how come nobody else knew that? And weren't there a couple of lads sacked off Sky lately for using language like that?

When they were finished with Shane Long he looked like a battered chicken.

We're wonton lots of goals now.

Their defence is pretty (chow) mein though.

[AZOffaly]

Yeah, no point going all out, we have to use our noodles.

[twohands!!!]

I just can't see us sticking a goal past-a the Italian defence.

Tommy Carr has no clue what the role and purpose of the black card is. He proves this time and time again and yet on tv and radio he is brought in by RTE to be a pundit on the game.

Today he said the black card serves no purpose for the ga,e. Truth is Tommy Carr serves no purpose for game. Sorry Tommy you are probably a very nice man and all that but you a fecking awful pundit

I agree with you but in fairness his point was that a black card is no punishment in the last few minutes of a game as players pull men down to stop a score. If the punishment was a 13m free then that would be a real deterrent

For Kildare at the end there was a clear goal scoring opportunity stopped by the referee delaying the game to issue a black card. That would be frustrating in most circumstances but in this instance if Kildare managed to steal a win they would suffer a humiliation of epic proportions against Dublin. Moderately strong humiliation against Westmeath is ok in comparison.

The free & black card relating to that quote was a handy one on the 21 right in front of the posts.
Before the black card, it would have just been a free.

Would it not have been a tick?

You're acting the maggot with the chink thing Hardy surely?
A chink is a weakness in defensive armour. A small but possibly fatal weakness. Probably goes back to days of medieval warfare and chainmail and possibly a French origin - like a lot of descriptive words do.

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Tommy's point is surely that the black card does nothing to eliminate or curb the most cynical of fouls, typically one intended to prevent a certain score or to block an opposing team's progress in the dying minutes of a tight game.

No doubt that was his point but what was his point last week when a push to the chest near the side line was "probably a black card"?
