Eamon Dunphy at the European Championships

[magnumpi]

green is a complete tool, so annoying to listen to. way worse than dunphy imo.

add paddy crerand to the list of people green has hacked off - tried to lamp green a few years ago in a press office.

[seanfhear]

Green certainly does like the sound of his own opinions and has completely forgotten that he is the announcer/commentater and not the football expert during his commentaries.

[geysir]

Why is it that a thread on a dedicated ex Irish international such as Dunphy and current popular pundit who has challenging opinions on all things to do with the national team gets shafted to the world forum while we have a thread like the SI thread meandering in all directions, which stays stolidly fixed in the Ireland forum despite having blown up his bridges time and time again with every Ireland manager.

Yeah hoping to catch the Everton Spurs game when I am over there on the 9th of May. I must say I like Goodison as a ground to go to.

Closing bracket is missing in the link.

I thought Irish_Praha had managed to hijack the page to add this but UNFORTUANTELY not, still amusing if not scurrilous! (should have known Wikipedia would have at least caught the attrocious spelling!)

Quote Praha:

He's just in denial that his fater was an itinerant from Limerick.

Well that's accoring to his wiki page anyway.

Alan Green (born 25 June 1952 in Belfast, Northern Ireland), who never knew his father, an itinerant tinker from Limrick who Green's mother met once while taking her turn "in the barrel" at the local inn, The Flange and Ferret, is a BBC Radio sports broadcaster/commentator.

That's got to be a joke?

:D
