Gavin O'Connor

@AkaPaulHoward @AkaPaulHoward did you say Liverpool Football Club by any chance?

Liverpool Football Club.

This is how to you rise above the jeers and the shouts. What a class act @MattFitz94 is. His first thought was to congratulate the Youngs on their son's biggest win!

@daveyhannigan Pleasure Dave. Cracking read.

@gavinoconnor Cheers Gav

This is terrific. Great rapport between Matt and Dave. The book is a tremendous read also. A sociological look at how Ireland shaped Roy and how he went someway towards shaping it in return.

Ronnie Delaney RIP

@AkaPaulHoward An* (X really needs an edit button. Could stop wars).

@AkaPaulHoward I know you know this but presume it’s after Inis Tuaisceart on the Blaskets, known locally as A Fear Marbh.

Des Bishop used to do a really funny bit about coffee shops with dark, apocalyptic names, like insomnia. Wonder what he’d make of Bean in Dingle’s An Fear Marbh blend.

@pgal10 Been saying it for years Paul. He’s a class act.

Is Valverde the closest thing we have seen to Gerrard since Gerrard ? Not counting McFratm of course , who is better than both……. #UCL #Madrid #City

A piece about Roy Keane, Cork in the eighties and why the world needs another book about him irishtimes.com/sport/soccer/2…

@SprtBookReviews @MerrionPress @daveyhannigan I nearly finished it in one sitting! It’s a fantastic read is right.

@gavinoconnor @MerrionPress @daveyhannigan It's fantastic Gavin. You'll love it.

Can’t wait to get stuck into this. Release day today. Good luck @daveyhannigan

Delighted to share this cover, book coming in March irishacademicpress.ie/product/we-nee…

Going to see it later at DIFF. Written by the great Malcolm Campbell of course. Can’t wait.

Team mates in the tunnel before Premier League matches. You saw them in the dressing room a minute earlier ffs!

@AkaPaulHoward The ref hasn’t missed shoulder day in the gym since 1993!

I’ve got this, lads.

@gcooney93 Always the way. 😂😂

@gavinoconnor Yes as soon as I pressed send on that post, Liverpool were excellent

Van Dijk seemed to be shouting 'So open' after that Gordon goal. Liverpool have gone back to the chaos of the first few weeks of the season - Slot can't figure this out

@gcooney93 I don’t know Gavin. I’d have to disagree. Konate looked very solid, given all that’s going on and they looked like they could score every time they attacked. From when they went behind it was a complete performance. Newcastle didn’t lay a glove on them.

Or at least hasnt been given the players to figure it out

@spike_osullivan Imagine waking up? Texts mate. “I’m a bit hazy about where we ended up. Any details?” Mate - “Turn on the news!” 😂😂😂😂

Good luck explaining that one lads 🤦🤪😂😂

This is very sad news indeed. I’ve known Noel since I was a student across the road and he was a consummate ball-hopper. I enjoyed meeting him immensely. Whether that was a quiet pint or a post Cork match slagging. Dublin has lost one of its great characters. ❤️

This will be fun!
