I've never had much time for Gaelic football, but I was looking forward to tonight's programme Hell for Leather on the history of the game. But the first half has been nothing but romantic fucking nonsense.

Great programme but surely this could easily have been bi-lingual

There was at least 5 gaeilgeoirí ag caint!!
