"Old Parish - Notes On Hurling" will be released by Penguin Sandycove on September 18th, but it's available to pre-order right now - linktr.ee/oldparish

ITV pulling zero punches in this incredible footage - "This landscape of destruction looks otherworldy, but it's not, it's this world - What is happening may come to define one of its darkest eras, one that casts a stain on humanity, which will endure for generations" #Gaza

This was a heartbreaking report on the untimely and avoidable death of Michael Cuddihy from sepsis in UHL last November. Huge admiration for the Cuddihy family asking essential Qs about the service. Only when they spoke to media were they promised a full review

Thank you, Dr. Khalil, faithful brother and worrier for life through all these months of Israeli terrorbombing, betrayal and deceit from The Powers. You have shown what true courage and profound compassion is, what human professionalism and dignity is, what resistance against evil colonialism and raw brutality means. You, like all Palestinian HCWs and the people of Gaza and Palestine, YOU are the real moral power and YOU protect the heart of our planet, so badly bled by death and evil. I’ve known you for years and my respect and admiration for you, your sumud, your show of artistry in the middle of deep darkness, it’s a lighthouse of morality and HOPE for the world. We, the millions supporting Gaza’s brave struggle, must take inspiration from you an mount more massive solidarity for you and for Palestine! Dr. Mads

Remembering the late great Philly McGuinness RIP, a Mohill GAA and Leitrim GAA star, who would have been celebrating his 10th actual birthdate today. Feb 29th, 1984 - April 19th, 2010. Taken too soon, but certainly will never be forgotten. #LeapDay

@kev_egan @SachaKljestan @BWPNINENINE @AppleTV @MLS @MLS_PR Congrats Kev. Flying 🇮🇪

Beyond excited to announce that this year I will be Lead Host of MLS 360 on Apple TV. Four hours of live whip-around coverage, jumping from game to game, catching all the goals and big moments as they happen - all alongside three top pros and brilliant people! 😁

@ALANMYERSMEDIA Just having a chat about stuff. That's nice

Everton have opened discussions with Udinese striker Beto, however any deal is unlikely to be completed this week

@EoinMcDevitt Even more so because you so rarely see them now and he had so many. Stand-out is the one at Highbury, where he basically jumped over Tony Adams to thump a header in. Best header I've ever seen. 90th-minute consolation in a whipping, of course. Classic Everton

They’re showing Big Duncan Ferguson towering headers on Sky Sports at the moment and there are some works of art in there. He throws in the odd swivel + finish to keep the viewer guessing.

@KennysKids Just teeing up the negotiations

Getting ridiculous now. Kelleher will be 25 in November. Whatever he's learning from the Liverpool environment at this stage can't be as valuable as what he'd learn from starting every week for another club.

@RudiKinsella 100% the manager of the season

There is no explanation for Gary O’Neil not being here

@RudiKinsella 😅 Gundogan balancing the account a few times tonight with a few spicy tackles on Carvajal, which I can get fully behind

@PaddyMcKenna I just want a good clean game with the occasional bit of thuggery. Is that too much to ask?

Carvajal not being booked yet is brilliant cos he’s definitely going to get one more smash in on Grealish

Such a great turnout for the launch of Service last night @Hodges_Figgis. Thanks to everyone who came, @GillHessLtd for organising and Joseph O’Connor for a terrific introduction 😍

Is the discussion ‘should AI recreate music?’ or is the discussion ‘Why is contemporary music so homogenised & formulaic that it’s really easy to copy?’

@KanekoaTheGreat @elonmusk loud bit: let's hear the actual voice of the people quiet bit: (those actually willing to give me $8 p/m to be amplified)

.@elonmusk: "I think it's very important to elevate citizen journalism. It's very important to hear the voice of the people. The actual voice of the people, not the filtered voice of people, and let the people choose the narrative, and let the people determine the truth and not five editors-in-chief of major publications."

@RudiKinsella completely. His attitude and temperament is elite level

@PaddyMcKenna He deserves to play in games as big as lazy night for the rest of his career

It is a genuine disgrace that Ogbene is playing in a relegation battle in the Championship. Wouldn’t be the case if he were from anywhere but Ireland.

@Everton So lovely. Harry’s a wee gem. Well done, Everton

This is Harry’s story. 💙 And it’s one we want to share with you…

@lawsonandy1980 @henrywinter @BBCMOTD @GaryLineker Sense 🤨

Judging by messages I’m getting @BBCMOTD in meltdown. Any presenter who agrees to replace @GaryLineker tomorrow night will be tainted as effectively a political appointment. Ditto any pundit.
