MONDAY
Wow! He’s gone… JUST LIKE THAT!
The President of Venez…
NO! Amorin!
Huh?
The Manchester United manager! They’ve only gone and sacked him!
Oh really? ABOUT TIME!
Hardly! Results weren’t that bad…
Nah, not just because of results! Didn’t you see his press conference yesterday?
No, weren’t we on our GAA outing?
Yeah, but you do know you can catch up online?
So what did I miss?
Amorin slammed his bosses! He lashed out against the Manchester United hierarchy!
Oh it’s never wise to publicly criticise your boss! Especially if you want a new contract!
Editor: Spare me!
(The boyos pause to check when Christmas officially ends)
Hey! More breaking news! The other guy’s gone too!
Huh?
Wilifred Nancy! The Celtic manager! He’s been sacked as well!
Oh dear!
Do you think we should show some festive spirit and reach out to all the Manchester United and Celtic supporters in Roscommon? Maybe organise a Benefit Night? A morale booster? They could probably do with some support…
Oh I think most of them will be quite happy!
Anyways, let’s switch to reviewing the weekend GAA!
Suits me! I didn’t get to John Corcoran’s (Menswear) this morning (regularly the location of GAA debates)!
Suits! I see what you did there! Anyways, a great win for St Brigid’s!
Brilliant!
Hard luck on Strokestown…
Agreed! Still, they’re Connacht champions! It’s been a great season!
As for you and I, we had an eventful Sunday…
Yeah, well let’s not detain our readers…
We set off for our first GAA game of the New Year, and by 2 pm we were sitting comfortably in the stand at Orchard Park, Elphin! Wonderful! So sparsely populated!
Yeah, just a pity for us that the game had been switched to Bekan… and we hadn’t copped that!
(They pause to check if any more Premier League managers have been sacked, or any more presidents deposed)
Any plans for tomorrow, my friend?
Nah, nothing in particular… I’m still on holidays from work, so I might just relax….
RELAX? But it’s D-Day!
Huh?
January 6th. END OF CHRISTMAS. I checked!
Well I…
It’s D-Day! D for DECORATIONS! Take-down-the decorations-day! Unavoidable! Lights, baubles… trips to the attic…
Oh, ahem! Maybe I’ll go to work after all!
