Championship Manager and deckchairs on the Titanic: it's the week in comments

You’ve had another solid week, readers.

JOHN C AGREED with Donal Óg Cusack’s scathing critique about how the Cork County Board is using their money. He earned extra marks for the great Titanic reference.

Anybody close to Cork underage hurling will agree with everything Donal Og said. And the stats are worth repeating. 1998 last 21 title. 2001 last minor title. Absolutely shocking. It’s an over used cliche but the Titanic is sinking and the CCB are moving the deck chairs.

Raheny drew Bristol in the last 32 of the Women’s Champions League and Dublinjonny was spot on with this observation.

It looks like a headline from Championship Manager

Shane Kearney expertly summed up the potential of our patented “What would Andrea Pirlo do?” app, where you can get advice on all matters from the cool Italian.

What would Pirlo do…………wow, imagine that. You’d be in the shop deciding between a cream egg and a kit-kat, and you’d probably end up on a yacht with Scarlett Johannsson

Derek Mahon didn’t appreciate our article highlighting just how tall NBA star Kevin Durant is next to a man of average height.

Breaking News: Basketball players are tall. More to follow…..

Many were surprised at Mario Balotelli’s proposed move to Liverpool, but the price of the Italian was what Leon Mc Gilton wanted to talk about.

Great Logic


Brian O’Driscoll attempted to settle some scores through the ice bucket challenge by nominating Tana Umaga and Warren Gatland. But mcgoo reckons that there is one player that even O’Driscoll wouldn’t have the guts to nominate.

He wouldn’t nominate Paul O’Connell tho would he #fearofgod

Can you be considered a great team without having won the biggest prize? Matt F didn’t think Clermont could and backed up his opinion with this emphatic statement.

Leinster played beautiful rugby in the early 2000s and won SFA. Success is the yardstick of greatness. Losers whine about doing their best. Winners go home and **** the prom queen

After figures were released showing that Toulouse’s budget is greater than the four provinces and the national team combined, Colm Casey paid tribute to the achievements of Ireland’s top players.

Sick that the National team and our four provinces can be run for less than Toulouse. Just shows how much we over-achieve, fair play like
