You do realise I am talking about the incident about AIH? As was clearly referenced in my opening post on this thread, and follow up link to his subsequent comments about the incident. What I am Wright's got to do with it, I know not. Do keep on point Grove....

I understood completely what both your posts were referring to. The connection to Ian Wright should be pretty apparent in post #3 and subsequent reply. You may have missed these, being more busy indexing and cross-referencing your own, more important points.

While considering your cross-referencing irrelevant, I’m really made up for you that you know what you meant, and determinedly so!

Fair enough.

I think it's weird that Irish clubs were thrown to the wall with the advent of professionalism and that four new clubs/franchises were created out of provinces that had previously held very little
Interest for the Irish people and I think it's quite clear that it gave Ireland a huge advantage, and I don't think that takes away from any achievements and certainly isn't slanderous.

Best of luck to them, I just don't think that winning a few Six Nations does it for me. But to each their own.

Except the provinces had always existed in rugby Brian? Munster famously beat the All Blacks in 1978, a task the Ireland team didn't manage until 2 years ago. There's a good book about it, the stories of that day are absolutely crazy, and a lot of historical context

I lived in Limerick - the home of rugby outside of D4 - for years, Robith, and they used to have a great line about that game - "there was only a few thousand at the game and I've met all four million of them!".

Munster existed in the pre-professional days, but hardly anyone knew or cared.

My friend is head of training for the IRFU. They've done well, but it's still a minority sport in Ireland and worldwide is all I'm saying and he'll freely concede that. I'm not knocking them, just explaining why when I was talking about Irish soccer in my original post I compared it to GAA and not to rugby. It's not because I hate it or anything. I actually have been to Ireland games, I've even played rugby for a while (second row - paid from the neck down!).

Rowing is also a minority sport. We're doing very well in that. I love it.
Horse racing is also a minority sport. We're doing very well in that. I detest it.

So, I'm not knocking rugby. As I said, to each their own.
