The 'where are they now?' files

[Kenneth]

He was near universally derided for his punditry and co-commentary long before he stopped. I personally quite liked his sarcastic and disinterested shtick but it clearly wasn’t what any major broadcaster would want to continue with forever.

[Buzzo]

Apparently he was sacked from the BBC because he's 65, white and the BBC are 'woke'...

Not because he's dull as **** and out of touch with the modern game then?

That’s unwatchable.

He needs to get over himself, on a year to year contract that gets cancelled because he’s in his late 69’s has nothing to do with the BBC being woke. Maybe if he’d stayed more relevant he’d not have had any issues.

Maybe he needs to accept like the rest of us that there are no jobs for life here.

Its proper ‘old man shouts at clouds’ type defence where he throws together a number of hot topics in an attempt to seem relevant and hard done by. He needs to get a grip.

He was on a year-to-year contract, they were looking to modernise, to be honest I am surprised that they stuck with him as long as they did. It feels inevitable, I get why he is frustrated but surely he has been around long enough to know how it works.

He does LFC TV and the few times I seen him he hasn't improved, still half arsed analysis.

It makes sense now why Lineker is so tanned. Clever fella, hoodwinking the woke police

[ChesterDave]

Sacked him for being 65 and white but was only signing year to year contracts by then anyway. Was he not white when he was 64 or something?

Could be a lot worse though.


At least he is not the poster that asks me where to buy boxer shorts.

Post of the year

[Norbs]

Rude

[Doc_Piptorious]

I see Norbs can relate to that!

Well he would be an authority on mental trauma given he has gingers within his circles.

[Norbs]

That's awful.

Dropping down to Spar from Dunnes Stores must have been really traumatic.

So did you get them in the end? And how did you get in in and around the Clonmel area?

You definitely don’t want your boxers riding up into the Clonmel area

[Doc_Piptorious]

Very true. Had a lovely meal in Chez Hans in Cashel. Best dinner I've had in a while.

Nice choice.


Cashel is a lovely little town now. Been amazing growth there since the motorway was finished some years back.

Has gone from being a tiny limping along village to being a proper commuter town.

[brightred]

Parts of it anyway.


For my money other than Ballina across from Killaloe, the parts you were in are the best.


That whole Cahir-Clonmel-Kilsheelan area and surrounds.


Nice spots to eat, to have a waner, to drink, to sleep and more than a few really cool folk in the area.
