‘Ole aardvark’ is an anagram of Leo Varadkar.

It’s true.

  Fairplay?
  
  Would you be saying that if you found out the jersey was paid for by his expenses?

  @Mick Varadker is paying for the trip himself actually despite being Minister for Sport. http://www.irishtimes.com/newspaper/ireland/2012/0609/1224317568371.html

  Susie ‘please tell me why he is so great”, ha I don’t think he is so great at all actually. Its just nice to see a member of our government out there supporting the lads. My opinion of Leo and Fine Gael isn’t great to be honest but this article is NOT about the household charge, the fiscal treaty or anything else that the usual people on this constantly moan about, it is about FOOTBALL so give it a rest for once and support IRELAND. COYBIG!

These are exactly the type of comments that the poll was about the other day. A public figure wearing a jersey to support his country in a football game and all people online can do is spit out filth through commentry.

Ho old is this man? Someone told me he is in his early 30s, which I find very hard to believe. He looks a least 45.

  When you think that Michael Collins was 32 when he died and this ”gentleman” is the same age …. hard to understand what he gets paid to do ? Any way .Suffice to say that I do not like this person so I will not comment on him any more . . .

Let’s all chip in and put him up with Seanie for €550 a night in a flash hotel and maybe he might . . . . Just might agree a little reduction on the bailout
