WE KNOW MICK Wallace TD is a big Italian football fan but he took his devotion to Serie A to a different level today when he wore a Torino jersey for the debate on the Social Welfare and Pensions Bill 2013.

The Wexford TD once held a season ticket to the Turin club’s bitter-city rivals Juventus and his Wexford Youths football team wear pink in honour of the ‘Old Lady’ so it’s a bit strange he’d choose a Torino top.

What do you think, is it ever okay to wear a rival team’s jersey?
