The intensely annoying habit the Irish media (or indeed any local meeja) have of spending 85% of their bulletins on how many trillion shots over par GMac is and fail to tell who is leading the damn thing. Appl;ies to golf, cycling and virtually any sport where individuals compete e.g. look flameboy - I can cope with you giving me the damn result first and then how the Irish bloke did as an aside. I do not value my sports through the DailY Star prism of how the Irish bloke has done
No such thing as Cycling on Irish media between Mark Scannell and the three lads lately, apart from the final stage of the Tour de France. Similar with team sports too though, like cricket prior to the recent world cup, or hockey or whatever. Very frustrating if you follow any of them.

Which explains why you're in this thread and not the What's On Your Mind one I suppose...

Add the Heathers into that category of whining while you are at it. I want to go to Florence gig in Olympia but only to see the Drums!
the day nears closer when i add longford town to this list :(
Punctuation and proper spelling is also something you should put on the list. :PQuote:

Then we have the classic interview this morning with a former player. Interviewer to Shearer: How do you think Newcastle with do nest season?" Shearer: "Chris Hughton has done a great job but if Newcastle are to progress they will need to buy new players". Amazing insight there - Certainly need to be a former player to work that one out.
Hmm I don't think that really belongs in this thread, there's no way anyone really thinks SSN is something folk are supposed to like.
Ellie goulding-starry eyed. . Worst song EVER ! :O
Matches between the Big 4 in the premiership. .Like seriously, most overrated matches going.
Cup Finals
Rory McIlroy - bit harsh for one so young but shut up and start winning mate
Barbecues - look if you want to invite me to your house to sit ourtside and eat badly cooked heart disease, please have the decency of saying so - but don't insult me by tarting it up as a barbecue to make it all southside, chardonnay, sunglasses in the hair, ralph lauren shirt, irish times on saturday, gerry thornely quoting, just been to ikea, recession chic pain in the chutney

I hate the way Andy Gray always say's ''you wouldn't see that in any other league'' just because one of the teams equalises in the last minute.
to me, conceding a goal in the last minute makes the team who conceded look bad anywayQuote:

Anyway I was home the other day and he was talking about whatever game was on telly ... and then totally stunned
me by saying ... "That Premier League in Englans is a load of sh*te ... too many average players getting paid millions"
I couldnt believe someone who invested so much time and money into it for years finally copped on!
The "This is England '86" thread reminded me that I'm supposed to like Gavin and Stacey but it's actually rubbish
must be the most overrated show on TV right now.
Compunded by the fact that it introduced James Corden to the world.
He's been around for a while, was a student in the final series of TeachersQuote:

It's somewhat amazing how bad and irritating he actually has become since then as he seemed relatively harmless at the time.
Exactly, he was decent in a few movies, etc but now he seems to have acquired a huge ego. See he has a new show on Sky with Eamon Holmes. Shall we commit suicide now?
Well thankfully the first I ever saw/heard of him was on with Jonathan Ross I think, promoting Gavin & Stacey.
I gave up on Teachers before the end. Wasn't the same without Simon.
Corden seems to have no sense of shame. His sketch show with Mathew Horne was appalling but he still comes back for more. His World Cup show has fallen flat and was hoping this would have been the last we'd seen of him for a while. Sadly not...Quote:

Sky Sports coverage is embarressing...
