There are mistakes and then there are out-and-out howlers – and this slip of the tongue from Sky Sports presenter Clare Tomlinson falls into the latter category.
Tomlinson was updating viewers about the outcome of yesterday’s All-Ireland final and she accurately reported that it was a day of “high drama in Croke Park”.
Less accurately, she referred to it as the All-England final.
Oh dear.
To add insult to injury, this isn’t the first time a Sky Sports presenter has done this – we had a reference to All-England Champions Dublin last year too.

C’mon folks, if you want us to take Sky’s GAA coverage seriously, you’re going to have to get the basics right.
