Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 9hThe FAI Oireachtas meeting going about as well as to be expected. As in, not well at all. 130
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 13hThere's more than enough evidence at this point that we are living in the worst possible timeline. 062
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 29/09/2026I've largely tuned out of the City stuff as Ireland have preoccupied my limited brain capacity. But my God. They're fucked! 090

Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 28/09/2026Shook to wake to the news of the passing of Ben Satterley, the Bastard Pac. Another great wrestler and even better human being lost. 030
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 27/09/2026Whatever the worst case scenario was for this international break, Ireland have managed to find it. Distraction, splits an in-fighting, while the game goes ahead anyway. Israelis can't believe their luck. 090
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 26/09/2026Always fascinated by the Irish commentariot that 1) are (or purport themselves to be) religious, 2) inherently make everything political - but challenge Ireland's stance on the killing of children in Gaza + making sport/art political. 120
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 26/09/2026Is the Ireland thing resonating anywhere? Maybe if they had boycotted the game it would have taken off. But it seems most reporting is dominated by Man City. 140
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 24/09/2026Ireland, unsurprisingly dreadful tonight. Hard to see a future for this manager - five centre backs versus Kosovo, who in fairness were pretty good, and an utterly woeful approach to football. Yet it looks like we're tied to him til 2028. 140

Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 21/09/2026The Ireland Israel thing is an absolute shitshow, let down once again by leadership. I have so much sympathy for the team. The game shouldn't be going ahead, but if it does, I will feel very uncomfortable with the blowback the players will inevitably get from some quarters. 291
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 21/09/2026It's OK to think Wirtz has been good in some areas while also expecting more end product from him, especially given the fee paid. 330
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 20/09/2026Good win in the end ahead of the break. Still not fully sure if its that unsustainable type of winning we started last season with, but signs are... OK. 020
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 20/09/2026Araujo is so much more mobile and tidy on the ball than I was expecting. Which I should've given him more credit for, coming from Barca. Super signing. 4111
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 20/09/2026Sounds like Carragher on Sky (although a lot of what he says is justified). 000
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 20/09/2026Gakpo once again forcing something into existence. He's having a good season so far. 060
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 20/09/2026Nothing can go through Wirtz and this midfield. It's astonishing. 020

Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 15/09/2026Irish sports coverage is generally always - or at least wants to be seen to be - virtuous and principled. That's good and equates to my own values. But I'm increasingly finding it a bit too sanctimonious and, often, Only When It Suits Them. 020

Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 09/09/2026Araujo getting lots of love, but lads, Jeremy Jacquet. Two back to back 90 mins, started all four games, having not kicked a ball since February, and not one toe out of place. We have a baller on our hands. 090
Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 09/09/2026Really encouraging couple of games for Isak. It seems a switch has flicked on and he's been much livelier and involved. Good signs. 130

Kevin Coleman @gobb.ie · 06/09/2026Very sad to hear about The Butcher, Andy Williams. I didn't know much about his music, but in wrestling he had a unique look and eye catching style, and behind it all seemed like an unbelievably cool and kind guy. 030
