BOD hits back after BT Sport’s Lions tweet

It’s rugby’s version of ‘The NeverEnding Story’ and Brian O’Driscoll’s relationship with Warren Gatland was back on the agenda last night with what proved to be the tamest of tame TV interviews with the Irish centre.

It was a tweet promoting the interview between the Leinster and Ireland veteran and BT Sport’s Craig Doyle, which was aired last night, that caused the latest spike in interest. Or, rather, O’Driscoll’s own response on Twitter.

“Brian O’Driscoll on Lions omission”, was the teaser, to which O’Driscoll’s response was: “Thanks for that. One question in an interview & you put it in the headline. Typical … unbelievably annoying headline. So annoyed with it. Who cares any more.”
