Who is Peter Galvin?

He was one of the sickening self-obsessed tools on the Late Late Show who delayed me learning I didn't win €15 grand; the other was Turbidity.

OutlawPete

I liked his red socks and how they matched his handkerchief, subtle - but yet very effective.

Still looks like he bought his whole outfit for €12 in the Mrs Quinn Charity Shop though.

I took it the other way actually. Tubridy was giving a woeful interview, talking to a sportsman about fashion! I was looking at it thinkin "WTF is Tubs asking him this ****e for??". Did he even ask him why he had a camera following him around New York?? Hah and "so tell us about this reminder on your phone?". Well done Tubridy. Top notch stuff there.

No, more a big bit like a very accomplished GAA footballer and not some long grass piss artist.

yeah Tubridy was awful... shows him a clip of himself getting sent off... followed by copious loaded questions ... (paraphrased synopsis)... "so you're a footballer, and you like clothes, why ... why would a footballer like clothes.. that's really odd .. explain that to me"...

I thought the Juliette Binnoche interview would be his worst of the season, but he's managed to surpass himself.. RTE, please get a proper presenter..

Why do you guys hate me?

What subjects did he teach?

He came across as very nervous to me and I think he may have been getting a bit pissed off with Tubridy over the constant questioning on his interest in fashion.

Not sure I like tha "typical witless Kerryman" comment. We Kingdomers have a lot of traits that could be accurately attributed to us in general terms but being devoid of wit is not one of them. We tend to be good at the old verbiage. He doesn't seem so typical to me.

What he said!! poxy presenter, and he knows it himself now. At one stage he thought he could do it but obviously he can't. In fact seemed strangely flustered, any connection to th'other Ryan?

Self-praise, at which you excel, is no praise. Except within the parish, maybe

Well, I hate you because I once bought a gas cylinder refill from your Hardware Store in Swords and it was empty :mad:

nothing new here, iv never met a kerryman that wasnt full of themselves!

Galvin is a great footballer but a lunatic as well.

What self praise? I'll make a list a mile long for you of things I dislike about Kerry people. But we do, like Dubs, tend to be good at the witty banter.Galvin, judging from that interview anyway, doesn't seem to haven any talent for it. To say his lack of wit is typical of Kerrymen is incorrect. He came across as utterly boring and devoid of personality.

I'm not aware of what parish I live in. I don't care either.

Can anyone answer my question regarding what subjects he taught in school? I'd hate to think it was English!

skelliser

he taught geography

It's offensive to the gays to associate him with them.

Also they would never wear that outfit.

Tool.

He is livin' it up, and high-fiven down in Coppers as we speak.

Cool dude.

He looks like a younger version of Fagin from the 1968 Oliver! film.

I was fast forwarding through the late late as I had it recorded. Flew through that fella whoever he is and from the picture I saw, I thought he was an Al Qaeda member

Kev_ps3

Just watched the interview. Jesus he comes across as some wierdo. What kind of a man would wear that outfit he was wearing in New York?

eamon234

He'd want to go up a size in the skinny jeans fat-ass! Someone should tell him they went out of style about a year ago.

I don't even like people mentioning if i got new clothes on. I can't imagine how embarrassing that line of questioning would have been if he wasn't expecting it.

wyndhurst

It was always known the guy is a looper.
What was totally freakish was the New York clip of him prancing around in his gay outfit. Does anyone know which side he bats for?

He alledegly threw a duster at a child he was teaching, he quit being a teacher after the incident. Going by what I've seen of him he has anger management issues.

Well, at least he quit.

I'm 8 years out of school now, but in my secondary school there were 2 GAA players teaching. A couple of others who were big into GAA/coaching etc. Of all the teachers in the school they were the weirdest. They behaved strangely and were prone to violence. A duster? I saw that, and much more. I saw a second year pupil being punched in the stomach by one of these men. One of the others was a complete tool, prone to very weird tantrums.

And no one really said anything, it was all quietly tolerated. I thought dusters being thrown around was fairly normal based on my experience, but glad to hear people are actually shocked by stuff like this!

edit - I sympathise with this guy Paul Galvin on one thing though, and that is the judgmentalism of a lot of people here. We can be so parochial about everything, including fashion and how people look. The fantastic thing about a place like new york is you could go out wearing an elephant suit and no one would bat an eyelid. Over here if you wear the clothes he was wearing, it's automatically considered that you're gay, and it's sneered at. We're really very immature on many levels.

Hate all those people........pete galvin, richard tubridy, trevor farrell, phillip brosnan, frank flately, joe aherne......

Who the f*ck watches the Late Late Show?? :eek:

I cant believe we are paying for this ****..

You think people would be having a go at him as much if it wasn't for what he did to the ref in 2008, or to Cadogan this summer, or the duster throwing? Or if he took any responsibility for what he did, instead of saying it "didn't look well"? Or even if he just came across as a nice guy?

I wasn't talking about any of that though, just about how he dresses/looks/etc. Have at him for the rest, sure. Bonus points if people can do it without falling back to how gay they think he looks, though.

I always thought that if Roy Keane, Stephen Ireland and Eric Cantona were sitting in a room together and Paul Galvin walked in, there'd be a hell of a fight for the last piece of pudding.

Aye. My money would be on Roy.

I thought it was Mahmoud Ahmadinijad, President of Iran! Though Mahmoud dresses a bit better than western GAA infidels!

Daisy!

Absolute tool! Make him go away soon please. You just know he'll end up getting his own show on RTE :rolleyes::mad:

mickdw

Remember there was a newspaper article last year connecting him to the job on tv3 expose.
It was a joke at the time - kerry hardman for expose job but going by his interview last, its pretty close to the mark in terms of how he sees himself. Unfortunately, he is nothing but a thug, that fish hook thing is just a sick action. Should be criminal charges brought for such behaviour.

Who?

And why are you watching The Late Late show? What age are you? 50?

He did take responsibility - http://www.independent.ie/sport/gaelic-football/sorry-galvin-2238461.html. He got singled out for that this Summer, plenty of worse incidents were let go by others but he had to do the time.

That interview was painful. Yes Tubs he likes fashion, most football people already know this. What a woeful interviewer he is.

easyeason3

Did anyone else think he was pissed drunk???

I can't bear him. He doesn't have to say anything to annoy me, just the sight of him is enough to piss me off.

And what the fcuk was the story with the gaylord clothes?
If that's fashion then he should stick to playing football. I wouldn't let him dress a salad.
