Ireland crying out for invention so it is time to be bold

If modern sport has taught us anything it could be the maxim more doesn’t always mean better. In terms of quality, that is, not money. Sport being the global mega-business it is means the urge to expand is just as inherent and relentless as in every other branch of capitalism, but it is rarely a case of everyone being a winner.

Just the money men.

Sure, there are those for whom there can never be enough sport, but we’ve seen the quality of the‘product’ deteriorate or simply become stale all too often. What used to be the European Cup is your prime example. There was a time Real Madrid-AC Milan was a once-in-a-decade treat, now it’s a delicacy diluted by over familiarity.
