Garlic cheese chips and John Terry's handwriting - It's Comments of the Week
AONTONIO CONTE WAS confirmed as the next Chelsea manager this week but Figo Murphy was keen to point out a practise that, up to this point, we were very much unaware of:
The big talking point earlier this week was over the GAA’s last gasp decision to switch Dublin’s game with Roscommon from Dr Hyde Park to Carrick-on-Shannon. While most felt the decision could have been handled better, Eamonn Goggin had no sympathy for Dublin fans.
Baseball season got under way this week which means the glorious return of some of the world’s craziest stadium food. Despite the introduction to the world of the Burgerizza, Damien was more concerned with food in stadia closer to home.
He may have worked exclusively as a pundit since retiring from football but that didn’t stop ex-Ireland international Andy Townsend from being linked with a job as Director of Football with Aston Villa on Wednesday. Darragh Martin used Townsend’s own catchphrase to express his dismay at the news.
John Terry took to Instagram to post his PFA Team of the Year selection which contained no fewer than seven Leicester City players. Apu Mohammed didn’t mention the selections but he was impressed with something else.
Glenn Whelan is in danger of losing his 100% record with Stoke this season having hurt his back stepping out of his car. Padraig Corcoran had a very different explanation, however.
