Well that's the end of it. Nice way to retire with the win. Loved every minute of playing. Over and out .

Was asked tonight when leaving the the pitch when will you ever retire? By the way i could have been twice this lads age after playing against him. My answer was never. I love playing to much.

@MichealMartinTD
you should be ashamed of yourself. Pandemic or not everyone deserves treatment for every and any medical issue.
I raised the need to opening up Cancer services fully with the Taoiseach today.
I will keep doing so until they are open.
The Taoiseach's response was;

Am I missing something. I've been at a few under 8s game recently, to say I'm shocked to see coaches giving out over minor things like who's ball it is. Absolutely baffles me. Is it not about the kids enjoying playing football and improving. 🙈🙈🙈🙈

I love playing football but today I fell out of love with football a little bit. To be taken off a pitch because a manager thinks I'm the easy option because I'm the eldest player in the team over how I'm playing makes me lose love with football. 💔💔💔

I'm usually not one to dwell on things but I've realised tonight at 39 years of age. I hate losing football games. I've brought it home with me . I putting on a fake smile for the kids because do I want them to see how much it hurts. When I tell them playing football is all about

I can barely say the first division of league of ireland is elite standard never mind the under ages. 🙈🤔
Under 13 LOI games = elite, play ahead.
Adult LSL = sorry lads not today. Other U13 leagues = sorry lads not you either.
Again, I’m delighted that kids are getting to play football , it’s great for their health and well-being.
But who’s deciding who is and is not ‘elite’ ?

Terribly sad. Legend of a man James was. We would always have a good chat before every training session or match as he was always first. R.I.P my friend 💔💔💔💚💚💚
We're heartbroken to announce we've lost a club legend this evening. James was a clubman and Sheriff ran through his blood. The amount he and his family have done for the club is incalculable and it's people like James that make this club. We pray for all your loved ones💔💔💔

I can safely say not one of my children will wear a mask unless its fancy dress day in school every day. No problem to ask an adult to do it but its unacceptable to ask any child to do that.

Who needs pace. 😂😜😉🤔
Before Euro 2012 sections of the media claimed Italy could be overran. Pirlo was allegedly ageing & his legs going. That season Pirlo was quoted stating that it's is good thing he never relied on having pace (he was referencing the terms 'legs').

HIGH INTENSITY RONDO VARIATION
📝 When play breaks down the chasing players sprint back to the start line to allow a new teammate join in while one rests (Maintains high intensity).
📝 Chasing players can score in one of four goals to reverse roles (Counter Pressing add on).

That sounds familiar but wouldnt change it for the world. Still look forward to the call after every game I play.
Juan Román Riquelme:
🗣️ “My father never thinks I play well! With him there’s always something wrong. Even if the press say I had a good game, he’ll come along and remind of all the passes I misplaced. But I think that’s good. It stops me resting on my laurels.”

I would love someone from the government or a scientist to explain why is it necessary to vaccinate children. Why as we know from experience children are the least affected by virus. But yet we don't know what the long tern side affects are from the vaccine.
Please try vaccinate my perfectly healthy children. Not a fucking hope.
