I never read it. The sentences were too long.

Given your creative writing skills you could have offered to ghost it for him.

Got bored after the word writing there. Sorry.

I think it's fairly importantly for a written journalist to be able to construct a sentence. Most of the time Harte was completely unintelligible because his sentences were far too long and drawn out. On TV he comes across as intelligent and articulate but his paper columns were generally extremely dull and often incomprehensible.http://209.200.237.116/~gaabo3/board/Themes/default/images/bbc/toggle.gif

Mickey Harte was a columnist, not a journalist.   Don't you realise that newspapers have editors to EDIT the work of columnists to ensure their submissions meet basic English language standards?   Paddy Heaney appears almost intelligent via this process.

Why has he packed it in ?

Apparently the paper refused ink.

Something to do with Brian Carthy.

I thought Paddy Heaney and Mickey Harte were the same person.
