Geysir -though I'm fairly sure I noticed, on friday AM sometime, your first post regarding this (you posted about 10pm thursday I think) I didn't get the impression from your retort that you'd taken any offence.

It wasn't until Dons post at lunchtime yesterday though I was given cause to reconsider what I'd said. I was wrong and I took it back.

Why you think I'd have waited for hours and hours or whatever before putting my hand up is beyond me but I think I've tried to act in good faith and be straightforward about it.

I'm from Limerick City. I shout "ah for fcuk sake!!" as loud as the next man and kick a barstool when either of the Limerick GAA teams hit another wide -but beyond that I have no great passion for the GAA.
Many of my closest friends do -a whole bunch of them went up for the Kilkenny game (1/4 final was it?).

So I'm not ashamed to admit anything and there's no big front. ...oh and No -I won't be calling over to GAA boards to "talk about it".

Lionel, fair enough. You're right I was not at all offended. It would be impossible for me to be offended by your post, well it did not mention anything to do about my body odour.
As for RK being fit for Switzerland which is a zillion times more important imo. The Cork city defender was declared fit for last wedensday's game after a serious enough hamstring strain (2 weeks ago?) and Roy's is a lot milder. I'd say the odds are that he will start, a bigger doubt is will he last out the game.
