‘Rebel’ tenant flags his support for Rebels

THE man who made headlines last week for hanging Cork flags from his apartment has put his money where his mouth is to help paint his native city red and white.

Rebels fan Diarmaid Twomey, 27, has dipped into his own pockets to buy 60 Cork flags which he and his business partner in mytown.ie, Garry Bennett, donated to the Cork Business Association (CBA).

The flags have been distributed to local businesses as the city gets behind both the Cork senior and minor footballers who contest the All-Ireland finals on Sunday.
