Why does Rory get such a negative response from some individuals here?

Wrong sort of Catholic. He had a Norn Iron flag on his webpage at one point and supports the NI football team.

He didn't grow up on the Falls rd, he didn't go to school there either, when you are a child you adopt to the life you have, your friends with school mates and neighbours. If you want to blame anyone for his choices in life I'd start with his parents

I've a few friends that their kids are into sports, soccer, netball and gymnastics and so on, for them representing NI is their only chance at achieving national recognition in their sport.

If you were a parent and your child was representing NI would you turn up and support them?

It’s depressing stuff.

Local lad supports local team is still shocking for some people. Sad really

Golf is organised on an all-Ireland basis. It was the GUI that helped nuture his talent (albeit in a small way). Yet there was a time when he appeared to yearn to play for GB, but Ireland. But that might have just been to wind up Poulter.

McIlroy's in good shape going into the back nine.

I see Steve Aiken has resigned as UUP leader. Jeffrey could go for that one if Poots beats him.

Maybe an opening for Eoghan Harris or RDE?

Ha ha. That would be the icing on the cake.

Fun fact: RDE was one of the first to follow Harris’s fake accounts.

I like the way Foster and Aiken demanded that the CC Simon Byrne resign. Now they have both resigned. Hopefully the CC is having a couple of beers this evening

If Big Jeffrey becomes DUP leader/FM, I’m going to be out a fortune buying TV’s. As soon as his big smug head is shown, I’m sure to forget myself and punch the screen. He just has one of those smug faces you wouldn’t tire of punching.

Wee Jeffrey brings the smugness look to a whole new level.

A number of years ago there was an expectation that we would be following the German model where nobody owns a house. With work being migratory, then then would be moving on a frequent basis therefore renting is a better option. Perhaps Covid and working from home had bucked that trend.

I am not a landlord, but would like to point out that there are good landlords and there are bad landlords. The good landlords;

- provide a much needed service
- are at the end of the phone when anything goes wrong 24x7
- have the same problem as home owners in getting tradesmen to turn up
- are not social service counsellors
- have deposits which never compensate for the mess that some tenants leave behind

How could a team as bad as Celtic finish second in the league?

I once applied for a job as an editor.

In the interview, they asked me why I wanted to be an editor.

I said “Well, to cut a long story short...”

Similat thing happened with Mike Nesbitt in the UUP. He wanted to modernise, but UU says No.

Hopefully the result will put some urgency and money into the selection of a new manager.
