Trap Out and/or Delaney Out

[BonnieShels]

There are times when I can stun friends/family with a clear memory of the precise timeline of a decades old event, in all its mundane glory, because it happened around the time I heard the bad/good news about an Ireland qualifier etc.

That's how I do things generally.

Like how I remember the night I had my first sneaky teenage drink (and last until I was 18) on September 17th 1997 because it was a date shared with my friends birthday, My friends sisters debs, and Denis Irwin scoring a free kick against FC Kosice in the Champions League and an all-night session of Sensible Soccer on the Sega Mega Drive.

I remember you that night too, the drink was tequila and it turned into a Brokeback Mountain prequel if im not mistaken.

It was San Miguel actually.

[DeLorean]

No need to tell us his name.

Ha ha.

So what was the relevance of past campaigns where Ireland, rightly or wrongly, floundered in qualifying, to the departure of Trap...

Absolutely none. But it's fun to reminisce and go off-topic and somehow avoid proving Godwin's Law.

He gave sound advice to Pilkington "he will have many opportunities to go on honeymoon,” implying that there is a higher calling, playing for Ireland in a Euro qualifier.

There is. When will we play the puffins at home in June again?

[Charlie Darwin]

The puffins?

[ArdeeBhoy]

The 'mock Egyptians' as GR would put it.

He has a 'fixation'...

[paul_oshea]

The puffins?

puffin bird. its a well known dish there.

[Crosby87]

They eat Puffin, for real? They dont eat Penguin do they? That would bother me.

People eat all animals. Lots of people are horrified that people eat lamb.

That is a bit of an obscure nickname though.

[Eminence Grise]

You and the penguins are both safe - you're in different hemispheres.

Unless, like me, you're p-p-p-partial to the chocolatey ones!

It doesn't qualify as a nickname.
But maybe Mypost would be the type of guy to call a Faroese a 'puffin' to his face and forget to duck.

[ArdeeBhoy]

That joke brought to you by the local Icelandic jury?
Good job they're not in Eurovision...

[Crosby87]

Any of you guys vegetarians? I could see some of you not eating meat.

[Crosby87]

I thought they had Sammon in qualifying. They had flounder?

[ArdeeBhoy]

No. That's some of the 'comedians' on here...

[Charlie Darwin]

You're the one who wouldn't eat a penguin. Lightweight.

Who? the puffins?
There's only one country who would send a bird to the Eurovision.
