QuoteNomination is kinda tainted by mention of Garth Crooks though
Dunphy lauded in the Guardian's Joy of Six.
It's a fair shout. Never have been so entertained by someone who's opinion I despise. Here's to you Eamon (until the next time you cause me to throw a beer can at the TV in anger).
Ou-est le Centre George Pompidou?

They're crying out for any kind of eccentricity - good or bad - in English punditry which possibly makes Crooks' rubbishness endearing.

Am looking for old Irish matches on VHS, PM me if you have some and I'll upload them here
The closest (closet!) thing to seeing sex between two men on RTE is Giles and Dunphy over the past 25 years. They had a lovers tiff in 2002 but kissed and made up but now they just love each other again and flirt and agree with each other all the time. Laughing Bill is a voyeur who likes to look on.
Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
Haha, I was just going to post that. I dont get to see much of the 'Dunphy & Giles' show being based in Manchester (Im blessed with Sky and the inane ramblings of Stan or the likes) but one thing is for sure, from reading this forum over the years, owlsfan has most definitely got a picture of 'the' holy trinity pinned to a dartboard on his bedroom wall.
I thought you were off the drink Ronnie?

No

I can see the "Holy Trinity" bowing out after the Euro's. Sadlier, Cunningham and Moloney are the new crew. Sadlier in the Dunphy role, but less tabloid.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
No matter how mental, deranged and OTT Dunphy can get after games I'd still rather listen to him than Andy 'I'm mates with JT, Gerrard and Rooney and I'll never have a bad word said about them' Gray, Jamie Redknapp, Shearer and Lawro.
Sounness (despite being a crap manager) and the guy from La Liga coverage I rate. The rest are way below par.
"If God had meant football to be played in the air, he'd have put grass in the sky." Brian Clough.
You'll NEVER beat the Irish.......you'll just draw with us instead!!!
Owls Fan's missus probably has a mesh guard in place to protect the tv whenever the Holy Trinity are due to appear.
Similar to the one that protected the Blues Brothers when they played at that hick bar.
No, I just get all shook up.

Dunphy was on form last night again saying Real Madrid definitely wouldn't win the Champs League because their defence is useless and when it was pointed out to him that they are doing well this season it's only cos La Liga isn't great either..
Is La Liga that good? My impression from hearing Sid Lowe that it isn't outside the top two, but can't say I've seen many games...
If you attack me with stupidity, I'll be forced to defend myself with sarcasm.
he then went on to be his usual professional self towards the end of the show.
I think I pressed record on the phone a bit early! the last part of the video has dunphy and then brady messing in the background while Con is doing his stuff at the front of the studio
I did find it funny when dunphy insisted barca will 'kill' madrid on Monday, and if they should meet later in the CL
Havin a weekend away is quite frankly,lettin ur team mates down!
Regardless of your opinion of them they are still the best analysis team in the world. I also like Souness as well.
When ya get Bill and the big 4 together it's a special thing. Makes the summer championships for me.
Let's not forget the genius of Didi Hamann and Ossie this summer gone.
The difference between Sky Sports Souness and RTÉ Souness is spectacular.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Paul Collins as Man City score against Stoke: "Just about deserve the lead on the balance of play" Stoke equalise 10 minutes or so later:Paul Collins "Well deserved equaliser for Stoke on the balance of play over 90 minutes" ??
Jeff Stelling on Sky "There has been a giant killing as Dover beat Aldershot".
Now I know that a pigmy looks likes a giant to an ant but really!
I enjoy Soccer Saturday but seeing Phil Thompson almost going in to ecstacy as Wigan or Fulham have a shot on goal is such a joke or as Paul Merson said yesterday about one of the Bolton goals "Best goal he has ever seen". As for Kami: "Unbelievable Jeff". Is this a wind up that he starts every report like this?
Bring back Dunphy

It is, but when they play the top two, there is not much they can do. Though Valencia and Villareal v Barcelona this season were cracking games. Real haven't played anyone really until tonight..
The Model Club
Tell all the Bohs you know
that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
and it's not gonna be three
and it's not gonna be four
it's more likely to be 5-1.
He was spot on about thier defence anyway.
