Have to agree. Whatever happened to that much vaunted backline?

Surely we can give the bloke a chance!
I know some fantastic people who are civil servants, other wonderful people with health care backgrounds and a few with both strings to their bow.

I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but we need to stop this talk of "realistically having a chance to win the Parker Pen." Left in the competition are: -Glaws -Clermont -Benetton -Embra -Sale -Lions -Sharks -Connacht I'd fancy all 8 of those sides to beat us in our current state. And given we ...

I’m not sure that Ireland produces too many decent head coaches True enough, although McCall and O'Gara, and Cullen are doing the business at the minute. Any interested in coming to Ulster?

The draw resulted in the top four teams facing each other in the first round, followed by the winners competing in the quarterfinals. Moving forward, seeding is necessary to ensure fairness. Sent from m...

They also opened a new one in Forestside last year. Bet it's not as good as ours. >TT Better class of clientele though. There's no Poundstretcher in Lesley Forestside old boy :lol: Best feature of Forestside. Last Friday of each month, noon, mobile paper waste shredding service. All proceeds to cha...
