If Kodaline play a secret gig on the roof of Kilkenny Castle, they know they’re onto a winner….
He’ll crash everyone here with his enormous proverbials and lovely smile.
Remember our media slagging him off for riding a motorcycle with a “blonde” (his wife to you and I) on the back? Well, they now have a chance to apologise to him.
Should he not apologise to the people of Europe ?
No
He’s married. ?? Jezus all the women in Ireland will be in a rage now.
Beware of Greeks baring……..!
Why ? All he’ll do is promise you the world, and then do a legger and blame the priest for allowing you to marry him thus enabling him to make those promises he can never keep.
David Mc doing battle with Yanis’ ego . BS taking bets now as to who will win…roll up roll up
Nassim Taleb has a bigger ego than both. It would almost be worthwhile heading down there to heckle him. He HATES economists and basically thinks the entire planet is stupid.
: )
He’s right though
Your link is broken
I think Love/Hate was back. oh well
McWilliams is the greatest chancer in this country. Possibly ever. A know-nothing dope who figured out just how easy it is to flog old rope.
I used to work in Quinnsworth with a bloke called Martin Wolf, stacking the shelves at nighttime.
Probably not the same bloke, yeah?
The Martin Wolf I knew was a lovely person.
