IRISH OLYMPIAN AND national 400m record holder David Gillick has brought out a new cookbook.
So we did what any self-respecting sports website would do and challenged the former Celebrity MasterChef champion to a cook-off.
The42‘s deputy editor Niall Kelly bravely stepped up to the plate under the assumption that boxing rules applied and, if he won, he would be crowned the new Celebrity MasterChef champion. Unfortunately that’s not how it works.
As the challenger Niall got to choose both the location (Whitefriar Grill on Aungier Street) and the recipe (the all-in-one breakfast from David’s book).
With such an advantage, he couldn’t fail. Could he?
Gentlemen, start your hobs:
Superb knifework from the boy Kelly — but would it be enough to carry the day?
You can watch the video in full here as we also chatted to David about the importance of proper nutrition for athletes and non-athletes alike.
And if you’re desperate to know the result of the cook-off, SPOILER ALERT: the lads called it a draw and David retains his MasterChef title.
A utd thread and the first 5 comments are all ABU….. First season out of the top 4 in almost 20 years and were written off, I suppose when were back in the top 4 we will be accused of “resigning Howard Webb” :-)
I think it’s more the fact that United won last year and this year with the same players they have been shocking! It’s embarrassing to call themselves champions!!
Chin up kev
Every non Man Utd supporter hopes he will be given time.
Arsenal, Chelsea and City have made it interesting? Yes, but does it hurt him that much he can’t even admit Liverpool have been just as impressive? United under Moyes have no chance at winning anything! But I agree, give Moyes time! It’s working wonders for everyone else :)
Damn straight! Give him LOADS of time. Maybe next season they can push for the Europa???
Lets not get ahead of ourselves here. Let them get 6th next season before they even think about Europa. They can dream tho
He did something right though signed Juan Mata
If he fails to beat Olympiacos over the two legs, then it’s time to go. Either look for Jurgen Klopp or someone with true success
Andre Villas Boas is available.
Why would anyone want to go there? Klopp is managing a champions league side and a team that are far better!!
In one way Dave though, Klopp is being pillaged by Bayern Munich. Strategy there seems to be to just buy out the rivals best players!
True, but he has only one team picking off the better players! United have Chelsea, City and even Arsenal getting ahead as the players choices!! And the original statement is still true that United are not as good a team and Klopp would be taking a backward step!!
Two things Dave. 1st off tell me one player Arsenal have signed that United wanted in recent years? Secondly, why would anyone go to Manchester United? If you are seriously asking that question then you know very little about football.
Time to drive them into the ground #lovinit
Love the way Liverpool fans think it’s all lovely and roses in the Liverpool camp, with them doing so well and all, even though the only difference between them and united has been 11 points this season… Hey least united will be in action next Wednesday… I mean is there even a difference between the managers in terms of silverware??? but no, Liverpool to dominate for the next 20 years!!! United to hopefully not be relegated!!!
David Moyes wont last 6 years at Manchester United.
Ok, will settle for 5 :)
I love the way 16 people have red thumbed that comment. If you think United have too much class to sack Moyes you are deluded!
A true united fan clearly. …
