Rant of rants

ok so the story is this. The Ireland football team got a new manager recently. The last guy got sacked left his post by mutual consent after some poor results and a whole bunch of fans and the media turned against him.

Then there was a very drawn-out selection process to find a successor and they settled on this guy. He has had a very good career and has had lots of success. That might bode well or badly given our record as perennial great losers when it comes to international football.

Then I saw this today on YouTube.

Part of me is hoping the thing is faked. Part of me says that it doesn't matter that the subtitles are pretty much incoherent. When you look at the video you realise the gist of what he is saying without any need for subtitles. And that is scary.
