Ballybunion’s captain-in-waiting bunkered by Bangkok blockade

THE incoming captain of one of Ireland’s top golf clubs could be left bunkered by the airport crisis in Bangkok.

One of the 100,000 tourists stranded in the long grass in Thailand is Michael Nagle, who is due to take up office as captain of Ballybunion golf club next Friday night.

But he now fears he may be unable to make it on time for his big night.
