I just see a thing that I feel needs nipped in the bud and that is the obscene display of artwork on players arms on some the Cavan football Club teams. I feel that this sort of thing is more associated with a particular type of supporter(across Channel) who views going to games as an outlet for being loud and abusive to other fans. I always remember the first Man with a Tattoo that I saw was a man returning from being on the Boats. He was described as a mind boggling bore about al the big Cities he seen ( all be it from the water) and the rough seas he endured. He had all his arms covered in art work ,, Well I hope the Gaa clamp down on this obscene display ... I see Love across the fingers of players or on the arms art like ...Love Mary... or Breffni for Ever...or the old hammer and sickle or Harp seems to be a favourite

ring liveline and have a chat to the other old fogies about it..

I'd nip in here occasionally to see what's troubling the great man and he rarely disappoints. This hasn't gone quite as anticipated so a revisit to the divisional teams issue could be on the cards.
I just wonder could the Gaa Referee be part of the solution if he were t say to a player cover up (Send him to the line ) ie these Tattoos covered as the may cause a distraction to opposition players trying to read " LOVE MARY" HATE or indeed to see fellows with Ex partners or indeed one fellow had his ex Wife's name badly embossed with a message to all new suitors attached.
Let the Gaa at County level be a forerunner in curtailing this obscene display of artwork before it gets out of hand excuse the pun

I see that that the Irish Government is prohibiting a lot of the Ink used in Tattoos . Perhaps if the would ban a lot of the words used it would also be beneficial. A lot of the stuff on players bodies is a distraction to other [players
