Theophilus Moore was an absolute genius. So much so that his knowledge of mathematics and astronomy earned him the nickname 'The Irish Merlin'.

In 1764 he published the first Old Moore's Alamanac, to offer his predictions for the future. A tradition that continues unbroken to this very day.

Having been printed for over 254 years, and with Theo obviously not around any more, where do the modern prophecies come from? 

Well they now have a mysterious in-house psychic. Wanting to remain anonymous, all we know about him is he works in the stock market and lives in Dublin. Very cryptic.

With the release of Old Moore's Alamanac 2019, Dermot and Dave wanted to find out about how accurate last year's predictions were and learn what we can expect to happen in the new year. 

The Alamanac's editor Elaine Kavanagh reveals how Ireland will win the Rugby World Cup in Japan, the Mayo ladies will win the All-Ireland and more royal babies.

This is the closest thing to having a real-life Gray's Sports Almanac from Back To The Future II in your hands. So it's a fiver well spent!
