Jump row: who cares or is there a cover-up?

THE absence of letters on the recent Irish showjumping controversy shows either a complete lack of interest in the sport or censorship by you.

Does the old saying that it's not what you know but who you know or, in this case, who your sponsors are that really matters.

Two questions I would like ask your readers, if this letter gets past you:

1. If Michelle de Brún was physically fit enough to compete in world class swimming, would she be picked to represent Ireland?

2. Would there be such a lack of outcry in the media at her selection as there has been in the case of Cian

O'Connor's selection.

Answer honestly.
