Re: Biblical matters

Essentially, Brillo believes several thousand gods ard a crock o shyte. Baggy: several thousand + 1 Brillo did have faith that Ireland would win last night. Where's them beads? Interestingly, or possibly not, bead is the Anglo-Saxon word for prayer. In pre reformation days most people said their pr...

Re: Biblical matters

I think there is value in getting down to the semantics here Neil, but I'm not certain you've nailed it. Or at least I can't quite get my head round the idea that you do not believe I the big bang, in spite of expecting that particular hypothesis to be correct. Some people believe in things having ...

Re: Autumn Internationals 2016

The thing that struck me was the pace of that game. It was unrelenting, so much so that I never thought Ireland would be able to keep going for the full 80 minutes. When the ABs started closing the gap, I thought it was going to be a case of same old, same old. That Ireland finished the game on the ...

Re: Edinburgh V Ulster Positive Negative

Mrs Promenader isn't much into rugby, so what I do is record the match and watch it when's she gone to bed. Recent away games have become so depressing, that I've found myself pressing the fast forward button and watching proceedings at an extra fast pace. It doesn't change the outcome, obviously, b...

Re: Munster game

I have been saying this since we lost to Glasgow at home a couple of years ago after spending most of the second half in their 25 without scoring. But why the hell do we wait for a crisis before working a drop goal attempt and keep the scoreboard ticking over and particularly tonight when the score...

Re: Anthony Foley

Just a suggestion but if there was a desire to break into a mark of respect maybe a generous hand clap just in case any rendition of the Fields doesn't get the full works and falls somewhat flat.. Well shame on us if it does. Shouldn't. I think nearly everybody knows the first verse and chorus whic...

Re: Bordeaux v Ulster

We have only one forward who can carry a ball and that's Henderson. Ah You is alright but I'm pretty sure I'm fitter than he is. Not good enough and too easy to defend against. Quinnie said before the match that every pack needs 3/4 good ball carriers. We don't have that. Hendo is one. Ray can but,...

Re: Bordeaux v Ulster

One of the youngsters would have at least out their foot over the ball for that pen. They would never have had the balls to just tap and go. p's problem is brainfarts combined with not being good enough but not being able to realise it. The kick-off returned for a try was again stupid and no commun...

He's into running. I'd say he's a fair bit fitter than most of the contributors to this board.
That particular bar, I suspect, is closer to the ground than a dachshund's willy.

Re: Treviso v Ulster Sat 10th Sep

Fair play to the banner makers (I'm assuming Surrey Red Hand). Good display of support for our soon to be ethnically cleansed legend. >appl >appl I abhor the IRFU by the way. If you're referring to the display of 6 county flags at the match, I'm not sure Ulster Rugby would think the same. http://ww...
