Schemozzle on the Beaufort Scale

Sir, – The Carlow GAA spokesman Tommy Murphy once gave a live update on Carlow Kildare Radio (CKR) where he used the term “schemozzle” to describe an on-pitch fight.

The presenter of the Sunday Sport show, Tom Dowling, asked how Murphy spelled "schemozzle ".

Murphy’s instant reply was “r-o-w”.

– Yours, etc,
