Re: Worst Signings Ever

1/3 Leopoldo de Chazal - the only Argentian prop who couldn't scrummage - Ulster did not know whether he was a LH or TH He couldn't speak a word of English which didn't help. Ulster had to hire an interpreter who was even used during matches, shouting instructions and so on, but when the play went ...

Re: Ulster v Worcester

Ug, they were terrible. Utter crap. If the last 20 months of Ulster rugby has depressed me this has done nothing to suggest we arent going to be fighting for last place again. Props. -------- Young anonymous . Court poor . In the scrum they occasionally managed parity but for the most part were pul...

Re: Ulster Fry

You are all a bunch of philistines! A proper Ulster fry has: Bacon Egg Sausage (pork) Potato bread Soda bread No leeks, black or white pudding, beans, mushrooms or other foreign contaminants. I must admit I agree with Gerry on this one. I must also admit that I do also sometimes like mushrooms and/...

Re: Positive Ulster

Reference Cables’ Concerned Caution Well, I would expect the pack to perform this season and indeed there does seem to be reserve strength there, but I remain concerned about our backs. Evidence so far is that we will win plenty of ball, but we seem devoid of ideas thereafter. Some of the early sea...

Re: Humphreys' fear for Ulster rugby's future

An example for me is the slight incline and shallow terrace on the prom side at Ravenhill as opposed to "the terrace" makes a world of difference in viewing pleasure. How the prommers put up with it i'll never know . I suspect they think it's worth it just to be away from the likes of the...

Re: Humphreys' fear for Ulster rugby's future

one slightly unique thing about croke is that the seats at the front are almost below pitch level. that exacerbates the problem of being far from the touchline. How can something be slightly unique?

Re: Funniest things you've heard people say at matches

Not what he said, but the look on colzo's face when there was no lager on hand and he handed over a nearly full pint of Guinness after about 3 sips of it - "I can't drink this"

Don't worry, colzo - you'll grow up some day!
