Madam, – While I was delighted to see rugby analyst Liam Toland’s mention of the sole Leinster flag dangling from a balcony overlooking the Shannon in Limerick city (April 17th), I wonder whether he stopped to consider that the “brave man who proudly advertises his persuasion” might actually be a fervent Leinster woman? Having seen this fine flag at close quarters, I can vouch for its owner’s gender. – Yours, etc,
