    You mean blurring them further than Ireland playing as a county in the English league? Or An irish international captaining the english team? Or an Irish player playing for Ireland, and then England and then Ireland again?

    Yes, this completely innocous t-shirt is literally ruining Irish cricket.

    Eh Ireland are playing England at Lords, wait for the outrage when they see those half scarves at football matches.

      Half and half scarves DESERVE outrage though.

            Someone should photoshop up a Bodger / John Ryan half and half scarf :)

            Did you not gather that when you had that important meeting of important people at Broadsheet Towers?

          3. rotide

            You should read more and troll less moyest.

            FYI Broadsheet towers at the time was a hotel in rathmines.

            I’m still trolling less than you, little buddy. So that’s a no? You had this big important meeting at Broadsheet Towers and they didn’t tell you that Bodger is John Ryan? Be honest. You were delivering pizza, weren’t you.

            Who am I to tread upon your dreams Frilly?

            I assumed that Preposterous is indeed Preposterous but Bodger is a shared account for any contributor to add a story with.

            That honestly never crossed my mind, but now…

            Ro, you genius.

      I think whoever is rostered on the helm is Bodger

      and Preposterous is
      Preposterous
      as he just said himself
      when he’s hanging around his gaff watching youtube n’stuff

      I suppose

      1. rotide

        That was my thought.

        There is an overriding Bodger persona though. The one that believes Sandy Hook was a hoax, the one that’s going to blow the world wide open with evidence of crooked Hilary. Would be nice to know if that’s JRs beliefs.

          I dunno
          but if I get a chance to strip search him
          I’ll get back t’ya

          You joining in tomorrow Rottie

    England and Ireland are playing a cricket match, and there’s a commemorative t-shirt.

    How on earth did this warrant posting?

      Anti-Brit bigotry and hatred of implied ‘elites’.

      Standard Broadsheet fare, tbh

      2. mildred st. meadowlark

        I was wondering where you’d been.

        Where HAVE you been?
        (I missed you, nice young chap)

        2. Kieran Nice Young Chap

          To be honest, the constant wall of negativity, bitterness and sometimes blind hatred from repetitive trolls.

          Ain’t nobody got time for that. It’s not good for ya. Meanwhile work is going well, the weather is lovely outside… I’ll still keep an eye out though :)

            Sorry to hear that Kieran, you’re a good egg, hope you stick around and feck the begrudgers!

    Just watched Catriona Perry’s broadcast from the USA on RTE. My cheeks are actually burning.

    Its cricket, so literally a tiny percentage of people with no life will be bothered about it.

  8. kerryview

    Ridiculous post. A test match between two countries?

    Cricket has a long history in this country.

    Grow up Broadsheet.

  9. Nigel

    Look, this is exactly what for it was. Did not Michael Wolfe Tone Higgins stand on the Treaty Stone at quarter past seven and proclaim: ‘Four score and seven years ago Irish men and Irish women in the name of God and of the walking dead generations shall tee off from same the cricket pool as perfidious Albionites, and now our watch begins?’ Because I’m pretty sure he did.
