So he is Philippine?

That's a shame.

Would have much preferred Francis was sacked for being a simple pirck.

I'd say a brave few people who object to what they call 'cancel culture' only really do so when opinions with which they agree are censored. This is Neil Francis! Nobody has ever agreed with his opinions.

Luke Fitzgerald was also on with Francis and to date has not disassociated himself from the remarks, Luke is another grade A prat that specialises in moaning about Jacob Stockdake.

If he had left it at the David Beckham hair cut but the Tan is real not bottled like some welsh players . A step too far on the plank of public opinion

Counter Culture is not about standing up for something it is more a resistance to having something stuffed down your throat the big humourless Pill of Public Conformity,

Bad taste humour is fine as long as it actually funny-- cheap shots which miss the funny bone are cheap shots

I have no need for Fitzgerald to disassociate himself from remarks he did not make.

But it is the wright woke thing to do. To expect everyone to stand back in horror in mass agreement and assume everyone who fails must be in agreement with the statement rather than just see it as a sad attempt at humour which falls flat with a single laugh from the Gods and a few boos from the stalls.

What annoys people -- five catheters in and four out in 3 days --- any movement thereafter must be performed with a little tenderness

What annoys me - people at sporting events looking glum and despondent or racked with tension during a match who then....

Forget all about that and start acting like a lunatic just because they see themselves on the big screen.

Absolutely. I said exactly the same thing to my daughter during the Euro final (I think?). That's the first Wendyball game I've watched from start to finish for about 6 years btw. Have to say, it was worth it. :cheers:

If Ulster were in a similar sudden death situation in a major competition ( it's a stretch, I know :lol: ) I wouldn't give a flying feck if I was on a big screen, much less acknowledge the fact. How would you even know if you were on a big screen if fully engaged in the action :scratch:

The lack of clarity is deliberate -- there are those who read and post here would recognise me if I provided too much information.

2 clogged with blood and had to be removed one was in, removed, and all was well in the land of rumn for about 18 hours when problems arose and I was told to go to A&E at the Royal where the first clogged and the Dr goes I need a bigger catheter -- fine except the wife started to laugh the other side of the screen

Life is hard for those the wrong side of 70+++
