Re: Petrol Prices 2009/2025- post updates here
Still is 154.9 at Go on Grand Parade today. Diesel still 15p/litre dearer. Interesting to see that their board no longer advertises heating oil prices.....

Re: Fridge Freezer
Well, not yet heard from him, so perhaps he (a) doesn't do PMs, (b) has already plighted his troth with Argos wrt to a F/F or (c) just doesn't want the one I have to get shot of (with projectile markings in the freezer door).... He'll also need to have found someone to have done the trailer bit - di...

HWM, have PM'd you on this....HwoodMike2umate wrote: ↑Fri Aug 05, 2022 1:55 pm Have two fridges so have managed without a freezer for about 3 months but will probably head to Argos in Sainsburys ((H’wood) tomorrow for a new fridge freezer unless anyone is getting rid of one in the next 18 hours.

Re: Cricket season
Had I gone for them myself, and not sent Mrs justinr73, I’d be fuming. Were the two lads not running the 'order your beer here and then we'll call you when it's ready to collect' bar from the side door of the scoreboard ? There last year for the ODI v Zim and very useful. Definitely an improvement ...

Re: Ireland ? in New Zealand
These days any report, whether in a 'quality' newspaper such as the Irish Times, or the 'boards' (e.g. the 42), seems to spend almost as long claiming red/yellow cards were missed and/or warranted than actually report on the points scoring activity. There also seems to be a tendency that Leinster lo...

Is it worth driving there? Feasible from Canada although Mexican toll road prices would probably eat up all your savings.....

Re: Player Farewell 2022
Nothing more to add to what has already been said about Sean Reidy - for a player who wrote to all the provinces asking for a trial (so his Wiki page has it), he's done more than enough for Ulster and put plenty of effort and grunt into improving both on and off the pitch. A really crucial player fi...

Re: Vote early, vote often.
Wee Jamie will be off his nut. The fools in the video will be too stupid to notice. Wee Jeffwy will be threatening to pull out of the union in protest.🙄 BTW, you seem to have an obsession with wee Jamie Bryson. Numerous times you have randomly brought him up? The clue is in the name, Big Al. StandU...

Re: Heineken Cup 2021/22 Other Sides
Solids, fully appreciate what you say - even if we do have the good fortune to watch a team that wins more frequently than it loses. It's important (IMO) to note that winning more games than you lose is a feature of league winning teams rather than a bug. After all, that's what separates top from bo...

Re: Heineken Cup 2021/22 Other Sides
The best team won and won well. That's four seasons Leinster have been undone by physical opposition. Sarries, Exe. La Rochelle and again La Rochelle. We need a new Brad Thorne or else sign Skelton. The URC is not fit for purpose and I say that even if Leinster hammer their opponents over the next ...

Re: Ulster v Sharks Friday May 20th 7:35pm BBC2NI / TG4 / Premier Sports 1 / URC TV / Super Sport
Not sure I have the mental fortitude for a Ticketb****d 'booking fee' of 9%..... another reason to wish Edinburgh all success.... you can get a ticket for that without any 'tax' (as the UR website so accurately puts it). Btw, the 'booking fee' on season ticket renewals is less than 1%....... I know ...

Re: Heineken Cup 2021/22 Other Sides
Thank you Cormac and D4 for the thoughtful posts (Dave, you're absolutely right - neither were from you. My apologies). Picking up a couple of the main points made: 1. It's hard to class a €2m subsidy to the wage bill of a club as ' a red herring '. It allows that team to retain the services of 6 pl...

Re: Heineken Cup 2021/22 Other Sides
There are nowhere near as many central contracts as you might think there are. Porter, for example, is only just moving on to one from next season, replacing Healy, who's downgrading to a provincial contract. Furlong, Ryan, Sexton, Henshaw and Ringrose on central deals too. All of Doris, vd Flier, ...

Re: Heineken Cup 2021/22 Other Sides
I appreciate that it is difficult for fans of the other provincial teams to endure our dominance and I would like more competition too. But it was superb rugby yesterday from both sides. Our speed of pass and recycling is something to behold. d4, if 13 from 15 are full and regular starting internat...

That include the park n ride from Pirrie Park? Unless UR hire replacements from Belfast Bus, I would think it does, and also scuppers the Montgomery Road P&R too. But that's not an insurmountable walk. You may already be aware of this, but most of the time we used Pirrie Park P&R, we'd aim ...
