Enda lines up to make Pope an offer he can’t refuse

There was a lot of moralising going on in Rome, especially from politicians over the past few days.

The Pope, on the other hand, stuck firmly to politics.

The Taoiseach introduced a pragmatic note however. He had sport on his mind and was willing to compromise, offering a little bribery in exchange for divine intervention. But he was not going to hand over his All-Ireland ticket unless he got a guarantee of a Mayo win.
