  1. Well that’s sold me, another fifty million Euro from the taxpayer it is then

  2. “None of my family or friends spoke Irish, so they didn’t listen to the show or follow my Instagram page,” he says. “This gave me the opportunity to explore my sexuality in an open way.”

    So the big benefit of Irish was that no one he knew spoke it. Not sure that’s the best promotion for making it more popular…

  3. Fair play to them I say. GAA culture needs to get with the times a bit

  4. I know a guy on the team.

    He would have played as a child.

    Probably didn’t feel comfortable in a dressing room as he got older.

    Now he is back playing as an adult, and really seems to be enjoying it.

    Seems to be a good idea that is getting lads back playing sport.

  7. If you can turn a man G A Y you can turn him G A A

  9. Amazing. Very brave man and very interesting article over all.

  10. “Susan will you file this under..

    Things that never happened

    Thanks a bunch”

  11. All the best to him and its good to see the language being used. Can’t support that club however as they allowed a male on the women’s team, if it wasn’t for that I would be saying it’s brilliant to see such a club

  15. Great read. Happy to see Úna-Minh getting spotlighted
