I note this article doesn't mention his trainer (in the early years before they split), Barney Eastwood. Should it? Dbiv 02:10, 5 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Why not? I remember Eastwood. Besides, with that last name.....he he, you know, like a certain spaguetti and action movie hero named Clint.....I just wasnt sure whether Eastwood was Barry's manager, trainer or promoter. "Antonio in every corner Martin"

Adrian Dunbar

in the article its states that Adrian Dunbar is a protestant, I'm not sure that this is true. I dont want to change it yet as he possibly however, I dont think he actually is - can anyone confirm? "User:Vintagekits"

For users outside Northern Ireland and the border counties of the Republic -- obsessing over people's religious denomination is a fraught exercise, especially when the people in question have made a conscious effort to transcend sectarianism, as McGuigan has worked hard to do. There's an ugly WP tendency to slap a "Religiousdenomination Sportsperson" category on everyone in sight, and doing so in this context may have implications that you don't fully understand.

Sentence.

- "During most of his career, McGuigan divided his fights between Northern Ireland, Ireland and England." - "During most of his career, McGuigan divided his fights between Ireland, north and south and England." - "During most of his career, McGuigan divided his fights between the Republic of Ireland, Northern Ireland and England."

To be honest none of these sentences look good. Surely "between Ireland and England" would be best, linking to the island of Ireland?
