Putting in "News" as it is, well, news

Good news:

But,

At the link just above there is the predictable row about names, but surely the bigger issue is that "Casement" Park

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Casement

needs to be renamed? Ok, his son may have gone to my school (!) but surely this is inappropriate ...

Lansdown Road is now known as a Aviva Stadium, so not reason why Casement Park cannot get a sponsor. The Semtex Stadium has a ring to it  😲

Yes a sponsor would be a wise more and I suspect that is what will happen.

Wags in Dublin btw refer to the Aviva as the Palindrome ...
