Cork’s iconic GAA stadium Páirc Uí Chaoimh looks set to be renamed SuperValu Park, in a motion that will be presented to the Cork County Board later today.
And DTTN understands that this exciting sponsorship deal, which in no way undermines years of sporting tradition, is just the tip of the iceberg with more exciting innovations to follow.
Local GAA Star Micky McMichael was in disgrace last night after being barred from Chancers nightclub following a physical altercation with a young woman.
McMichael (22) was
partying with friends in the local hotspot, displaying the legendary discipline
that saw the local team lose in the first round of the championship again this
year.
“It was my round.”
said McMichael “The place was jammers and there was only one lad serving. The
queue was two or three deep, and I was bursting for a slash.”
Displaying a level
of fortitude previously unseen by most observers, McMichael stuck it out for
ten minutes, before spotting an opening to the left of the bar area.
“The spot was
mine, but as I went to nip in, your wan appeared from nowhere and made a dash
for it.”
Showing more
aggression than he has all season, McMichael braced himself, and stepped into
his opponent with what he termed “a fair shoulder.”
The contact sent the young woman sprawling, face-first into Chancer’s famously sticky carpet. McMichael showed no contrition, as he stepped forward waving a fifty euro note to secure his drinks order.
The young woman
suffered severe facial bruising, but is expected to make a full recovery.
Despite being barred from Chancers for life McMichael remained unrepentant.
“It’s not my fault she hadn’t planted her leading foot,” he
insisted. “I’m just pissed off I didn’t get to drink the pint I’d paid for.”
