To counter AI, an illustrator in Balbriggan offers to draw posters for barter. Lauren Fernandes noticed menus and flyers all over with the same sterile look, and thought: what if she could help out small businesses which can't afford creative work, usually? www.dublininquirer.com/to-counter-a...

Irish fans need to lift their team after Czech heartbreak
After the heart-breaking end to a World Cup qualifying campaign that saw the relationship between the Ireland team and their fans rekindled, it's time for supporters to step up.

Looks like Eurojank is back on the menu boys. This really sounds like the Gothic series but made with current tech.

This current Liverpool side me so much of Van Gaal’s Manchester United. Lots of useless possession in places that the other team are happy to let them have it with no cutting edge at all and always a mistake at the back. #lfc

The Enhanced Games have got two of the men's 4x100m medley relay team. What they really should do now is get the other two and fit them all out with cybernetics that let them transform into a giant, ultimate swimmer.

I’d love to think that Ireland could build on this display and I think they will beat Armenia, but more than any other team I’ve ever seen, Ireland match the level of their opponents. Playing a FIFA top ten ranked team? They’ll raise their game. Playing a side they should beat? They’re rubbish.

That’s got to be encouraging for EA and Dice. Really want this to be the game that puts Battlefield back on the map, even if I don’t get to try it out this time around.

Not looking good for the Club World Cup. We have fans that won’t be there, players that don’t want to be there and clubs that are only there for the money.

The Club World Cup is a week away, does anyone care?
The countdown is on. It's now just seven days until the start of the competition that will answer the question on everyone's lips; who is the best football club in the world?

Still surprised Arsenal aren’t in for him on loan. He could get a dozen goals there between now and the end of the season that would be hugely beneficial for them.

Coleman as Everton manager is brilliant! Hasn’t been a proper player-manager for years. Surely Sligo are due a few quid as an add-on fee here too? Ply 100 games, qualify for Europe, becoming the manager, that kind of thing. www.rte.ie/sport/soccer... #Everton #Coleman

Liverpool behind and that’s all down to Trent. Gave the ball away with a lazy pass out of defence and then didn’t do enough to get back. #LIVMUN

That’s a tough one to take. Ireland will feel they left that one behind and didn’t show the best of themselves in that second leg. They offered so little going forward until they were already 2-0 down. #IrlWal

The duality of Darwin Nunez perfectly summed up by the first 30 minutes against Aston Villa. I don’t think I’ve ever seen another player that reminds me so much as Diego Forlan.

All hail King Ole the Second! It’s going to be hilarious, van Nistelrooy will go on a good run until Christmas, get a three year contract and things will fall apart again before they eventually get in Southgate.

Even as a short term option, Arsenal should be making enquiries about Lewandowski from Barca. They’re skint enough to accept and he’d do a job at the Emirates for a year at least.

Still hard to see past Man City for the league, given their tendency to going on a big run in the second half of season and getting De Bruyne back, but January could be a very interesting transfer window, especially if Villa give Emery funds.

All the talk about Liverpool missing Salah as he goes off to AFCON is absolutely but they’re going to miss Endo just as much. He’s really slotted into midfield and offered some steel over the last two months. #lfc
