what a trying and turbulent 2020 for so many but Iโm in completely admiration and awe of my amazing wife who was diagnosed with breast cancer at start of lockdown and is now recuperating following chemo and radiotherapy treatment - here she is mid treatment with the heir..1/2..
just heard Martin Keown correct himself on bbc commentary - initially said โman of the matchโ then corrected himself โsorry, player of the matchโ - the worldโs gone..last time I looked it was 11 v 11 men on each team

Think of all those you may come into contact with that have underlying health issues whom, if they contacted C-19 due to your decision not to wear a face covering, would be in a life threatening position..
Had the absolute pleasure of meeting Vusi Thabethe on the Old Rail Trail between Moate and Rosemount as he walks from Galway to Dublin to highlight the plight of those living in direct provision in our country - a true gentleman

A sad day for the Athlone Hammers as one of our original members John Farrell died yesterday morning..thankfully, his love of West Ham lives on through his son, Conor, a season ticket holder at the London Stadium
#RIPforeverJohn
honestly Iโm at the end of my tether with our fanbase..canโt just appreciate the away win today..have to be at each otherโs throats..canโt just revel in three points that moves us into 7th..yes, thatโs right 7th!!! Can you recall the Avram Grant days folks?? I rest my case!!
Just arrived today, new garb for our local Hammers Supporters Group here in the heart of Ireland! Great timing ahead of โEl Massiveโ on Wednesday!!

Fergal from one journalist to another (obviously not as esteemed) thank you so much for the daily information you are relaying to the nation..albeit gloom laden in nature for the majority
for the third successive season I get to hop on a plane and travel to London to see the Hammers in knock out European action..as a teen growing up in Ireland and subject to much jest Iโd not think Iโd witness such times as an avid supporter of the club..roll on tomorrow and..1/2

Nigh on 40 years supporting the Hammers - silverware of note not yet won during these times - so today is extra special as a long suffering and die hard Irish Hammer - let the European roadtrip commence and yes, COME ON YOU BEAUTIFUL AND MAJESTIC IRONS โค๏ธโค๏ธ

Ryan takes a lot of flak as a presenter but on matters Covid-19 he has been on point not just since the showโs resumption two weeks ago but during the nationโs lockdown in Spring ๐๐
this man gave me the third best night of my life on June 7 2023 and for that he will be remembered..3 consecutive seasons in Europe too, growing up as a young fan in 1980s Ireland I never thought Iโd see the day weโd win silverware..but time for pastures new..thank you Moyesy!

Why canโt there be one day on here when the Moyes In/Out brigade are not at each other, always trying to get one over each other, itโs so boring now..am I to assume when a new manager is appointed thereโll be similar commentary when results donโt go our way? If so, Iโm outta here

Why are NPHET continuously scaring the public with their wordage? It is to the utter detriment of mental health in our country - I know you have a job to do Fergal but reading a headline like so would make you want to hibernate

senior football selector duties concluded yesterday with a winning performance over Killucan to ensure the clubโs senior status was retained for 2022 - due credit to the players for an inspiring display yesterday - now onto the junior championship QF!
So emotional tonight..itโs been too long - over 40 years an Irish hammer and finally a European Final - why we do it, the ups, the downs (too many to mention), but tonight weโve done it! Letโs see this through now Hammers!

Good lord Iโm still reading negative comments from Hammers after an AWAY win in PL..no matter who the opposition is when you get an away win itโs a great resultโฆcheer up lads ffs
Can we all not just appreciate the three points without all this back and forth? The wins have been a rarity so savour them! ALL that matters is we survive, end of! Donโt care if we bore out 3 more 1-0 wins! Get us over the line and reset under new management next season
