The Late Late show

WTF??

Is Galvin mental?

I knew he was mental on a football pitch but the more that interview went on the more I wanted to reach for the phone to call the medics.

He is totally different (wont say weird in case I upset Hardstation who is big into fashion )  look he is at the end of his football careeer was an average teacher and is just doing a bit of self promotion . I suppose my memory of him is the fierce divied debates he has caused amongst Kerry fans over the years . But feck thanks for the all Irelands

Oh God heading down over the christmas . The lads down home  will be going mad . He is finished now in the eyes of the Kerry Football public

Why?  The man likes fashion is a bit ecentric? I found him a bit of craic and fresh air compared to most gaa interviewee's

I'd agree with you normally. I couldn't give a fiddlers what someone wants to do or what they're into.
But this is the supposed hard man of the Kerry team - the soul or spirit that drives them on when they need it.
And he goes on The Late Late Show telling the nation he has 80 or 90 pairs of shoes and was thinking of taking a fashion design course!
All very strange....

How many 'real' men are gonna wanna belt Mr Fashion in next years championship..' I nailed him'..should be a goodin

Famous French rugby player is a Sculpture and Cantona (eh) is an actor. Neither would be regarded as shrinking violets.

Why is Galvin weird just because he hasn't a clue how to dress himself? There have been generations of footballers who couldn't do up a tie. So what?

Woeful reply to a question I was also looking for an answer to...or was it a baseless comment to add spice to your vendetta?

Thought Tubridy was crap. He didn't know whether is should like him or give him a rough ride. The clip of the fish-hooking was a bit like Pat Kenny and Dara. Tubridy asked no real question about it and just sorta stared at Galvin. The shoes bit could've been humorous but Tub thought he was being smart. Galvin was a bit pissed off at the banal questions I think esp the tattoo crap. It was like one of those '5 mins with...'

Far, far too much is made of his "bad boy" antics so I think he has every right to be peeved at those events taking precedence over the positive aspects of his career. Tubridy didn't really know what to make of him and his questions were crap - Galvin is perceived as different as he doesn't fit the GAA stereotype. There are plenty of fancy dans out there - sure the city boys tan and shave/wax. Wouldn't catch the country folk at that carry-on but I don't think it makes him strange.

Must be front-row as he couldn't be very mobile.

I couldn't give a shite what Paul Galvin wears. Actually I applaud him for having a bit of style, even if I cringed at the NY clip. The shoes quote was hilarious, Imelda Galvin!

For me the worst part was the self-promotion of a guy who is obviously trying to make a career for himself. But I guess he's not the only person guilty of that.

Jesus, though, the size of his fecking hammers!

I've never watched the show religiously, but that was one of the most cringeworthy pieces of television I've ever seen.

I only caught the end of the interview. I think he has every right to be different and not a stereotype. Although I think O'Neills notion that Tubirdy' was considering giving him a rough ride is a bit much.

lads can i watch this in the UK? Have never been able to use the rte.player yoke. Sounds like it was godawful stuff altogether.

Somehow the name Jean Pierre-Rives got left out of that post along with the 'r'.

Just watched it there on RTE Player.

"I'm a footballer"

In other words  he's doing bog all now .

Did he quit as a teacher after the furore over the duster?
