TOMMY BOWE IS a very, very busy man.
So busy, in fact, that he can’t even bring himself to consider adding some coaching strings to his… eh, bow, for a £2 million salary!
🎬 @JacobStockdale & @WillAddisonB3 were manning the phones in the Ticket Office this week.

As they spent a couple of hours thanking Season Ticket holders for their support, they also found time to prank call @TommyBowe... 🙊

Over the past few years, Ulster have pulled out some interesting stops to promote their season ticket sales, but Jacob Stockdale impersonating CEO Jonny Petrie is the pinnacle of the genre.
Though the young wing can barely stop himself roaring laughing, he manages to maintain an even Scottish accent – or so we thought – during his call to Bowe and when forced into a second job offer to Ireland’s second-most prolific try-scorer, he draws an exceptional excuse from the Monaghan man.
“I’m busier than ever at the minute between the television, my clothes and shoes and stuff.”
It’s only after Stockdale steadies himself for a third query that Bowe can tell he’s the butt of the joke.
There was no codding John Cooney.
First attempt didn't go so well... @JCooney09 😂 pic.twitter.com/PlFj2DN0gA

Does that mean they paid off the first guys contract in October and have now rehired him while now having to pay off henrys contract? And all the while zero improvement on form! What a mess
So basically we’re going to be stuck with that boll!x back on Sky soon.
Villa dodged a bullet there
What about Henry? He was on a three year contract!! Does he get paid for that in full? What an absolute croc of shxt.
Thought Henry would have. The sense to start managing at the lower leagues and work his way up.
So you’re so sh*te at your job, you are fired after a few months and the guy you replaced is replacing you… good job Thierry.
Handball Henry. Karma is a bitch.
