ENGLAND: Leicester City’s success on the pitch has been sending shockwaves through the city — with the celebrations of fans being picked up by equipment used to detect earthquakes.

WHEN you’re the cup minnows, and Hollywood’s just over the horizon, the road turns into a dirt-track, littered with mines and moments of dread.

So, the Dubs have departed the football championship. Now, who will fans in the other thirty-one counties vent their anger on? ‘Late, drunken, coke snorting, abusive Cork / Kerry fans on the Hill’ doesn’t have quite the same ring to it. Referee John Bannon attracts Kerry and Dublin fans’ ire for his handling of the All Ireland football semi final. In hurling, Waterford fans are angry about ‘the system’ that beat their hurlers while Limerick anger continues at ‘sections of da meedja’ who don’t give their hurlers the recognition they feel they’ve earned. Tickets for the All Ireland? Not many of them about but plenty of anger about the 1000% ‘mark up’ by online ticket brokers.
