I had a great chat with Greg Westaway at a wedding last week, he's a lovely bloke & was only too happy to chat about the Saints.
He said Tommy Walsh is the most exciting thing he has seen in his time with the club. They're all very happy with his signing & what he can potentially grow into. Apparently he's done some pretty amazing things already, slotted a goal from about 60 out & then took a big grab over Kosi.
Go Paddy!

Apologies to any I offended.BelfastSaint wrote:Yes ....using a generic term like Paddy to refer to all Irish people is not PC and personally pisses me of ..it also shows a certain ignorance in the person using the term ...
I did live in Ireland for 12 months & quite often referred to mates as Paddy... they didn't ever get offended by it, so I have never thought that it is a derogatory term.
I've got plenty of Irish heritage myself.
I suppose you cant say anything to anyone these days without someone being offended.

No doubt the Irish found your presence in their country offensive.
No doubt the Irish found your leaving of their lovely country offensive.
Why are you so offensive?

no longer do we have a man who uses stupid words like 'extrapolate' and 'raw' in the media.
we have a man and a board who know what they are doing, which is nice.
