Despite being very unpalatable even to a lot of republicans Mc Guinness took serious chances by reaching out to the other side. Meeting the queen, standing at Stormomt and calling irish men traitors etc were massive but he was prepared to stick his neck out for what he believed in.
The Paisley MC Guinness double act was quite remarkable in itself. He wasn't afraid and could argue his point with most.

He was in his early days described as " officer material " by the Brits and clearly was a great leader despite a chequered past.

Good for player development or just another competition that isn't needed ?.

Mc Guigan's solo dummy left some men on their backside.

Keepers should be made to drop kick the ball as far and as high as possible to ensure that we get the high fielding back into the game.

Your name is on the cup after that finish ! Reminiscent of Fergie time.

Oh dear, Arlene will be doing more dancing up and down...it appears this funding was blocked by the EU as it contravened State Aid rules.

Its alright she can turn her efforts to fracking!

She'll have to try something. The boilers haven't gone down too well apart from those who are burning like the pellets 24/7.

Sad news. He was only 68. Arse holes like Trump live on.

He partied hard and knew he had to pay for it someday.

2016 has been a sore one on singers and musicians.

Is his stand in an irish man ?.

What I do know is that CF charity came in for a very unexpected windfall thanks to Tommy and an editor who didn't seem to find much harm in Tommy's response to Joe's article of the week before.

Is it only me or are there less ACL injuries as past couple of years ?.

Seriously hard worker and very determined and faced the illness with the same strength.


RIP

And was on RTE tonight representing CF sufferers in their quest to get the very expensive medication.

Yes he can wind people up and offend them but he does a lot of very good work with these campaigns.

Eoin Larkin retires: 'I am content to walk away knowing I gave everything I could'

" It was always my dream from a young age to play, captain and win an All-Ireland with Kilkenny and I'm proud and happy to say I lived my dream. I am content to walk away now knowing I gave everything I could for myself but also the team every time I walked out on the training pitch or pulled on a Kilkenny jersey and left no stone unturned in the pursuit of perfection, although I never got close. I've played with and against some of the best players of all time and had the privilege of working with the best manager of all time for those years.

"Doing what I loved doing for twelve years didn't seem like a sacrifice but although they never said anything I know for a fact my family sacrificed a massive amount for me to fulfil my dream."



Says it all really.


Eoin was part of an all conquering team. A class act.

It could be a neutral space with no fleg according to the Irish News this morning. Aogan keen to move with the times.

Cross will be going all out to take back what is theirs !

Kilcoo for me too.
