Doon v Kilmallock - Limerick County Senior Hurling Championship Semi-Final
Jack Anderson: 'This weekend, as with so many of the Diaspora, I will stream the county final'

Manchester City v Liverpool - Premier League - Etihad Stadium
Jack Anderson: Man City result dispiriting for UEFA but not a gamechanger for Financial Fair Play
It may go down as one of Manchester City’s greatest away wins in Europe.

Jack Anderson: Sport should know when to fold 'em and walk away

Jack Anderson: Why are Olympic Games immune from shutdown?
Jack Anderson: Why are Olympic Games immune from shutdown?
