Mexico, on the other hand, are the full package, hateful fans, hateful team, world class cheat as head coach, the pet team of the vicious FIRFUCs in D4.
LOOK, ...........all you have to do is look at the treatment of 34 year-old Visa Novisa who left Mexico when he felt like it, came back when he got bored, then compare that to saintly 32 year-old Ruan Pienaar, bought into not only club but his surroundings and wanted to settle for the foreseeable future, turned down a kings ransom to chase a much bigger contract in France. Novisa got another contract, Pienaar told to get lost.
Mexico, second only to Ireland in D4, none of the rest really matter, though of course there is a vested interest in not allowing the Turnips to bankrupt themselves with their stupid tale of two cities and pishing of cash against the pair of walls.

Re: Mexico 2018/19
I certainly have, I have thoughts on everything.........and seldom keep them to myself. It was Kenneth Tynan, allegedly the first man to say fu'ck on TV. who when writing with the marvellous drunk Brendan Behan in mind said: If the English hoard words like misers, the Irish spend them like sailors; and Brendan Behan … sends language out on a swaggering spree, ribald, flushed, and spoiling for a fight. I try in my own way to do the same with my thoughts.Leargas wrote:Any thoughts on the creeping Leinsterification of Ulster?BaggyTrousers wrote:I have no hate for Turnipstanis nor Westies, notwithstanding them both giving Ulster the rounds of the kitchen.Leargas wrote:What about turnips and westies?BaggyTrousers wrote:Have I mentioned I hate Mexicans?

However I digress, Mexicans. I have said in these virtual pages many times, if a Mexican plays for a team other than Mexico, I lose all antipathy for them, unless of course, we talk of Cullen & Jennings who went to Tigers and came back even more accomplished cheats, Cullen a grandmaster.
And so when Tony Ward years back went to Munster, or Andrew Conway, Tadgh Bierne following more recently, any number of them including J Cooney to Connacht and now a stream of them to Ulster, they may be mexicans born & raised but they are not Mexican players, hence, they are fine with me.
I no more care if a Mexican comes to Ulster than I do a man from Bloemfontein or the two from Mossel Bay, from Nelspruit or Potchefstroom, just as long as they pull on the jumper and play to their best in it. Even if a man is from England, he is not necessarily doomed...........once he manages to escape, isn't that right Lionel.
It was Behan who once said of an acquaintance, "he was born English and remained that way for many years", Brendan didn't hold it against him, neither would I.
So no, no issue with anyone coming north, we are in a parlous state, Ulster cannot be picky about a players background ...... unless of course, he is innocent of rape.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.
Re: Mexico 2018/19
Baggy the fact is that 70% of Dubliners couldn’t tell you which Province Dublin is in . Having only an interest in Dublin GAA and any Team wearing green and calling itself Ireland .
What was annoying about Cullen was he could cheat with immunity because they gave him the Captaincy but it was the presence of BoD which diffused an air of arrogance and smugness into the bulk of the squad . And several of those players still have that sense of entitlement about them because they had receive a blessing from BoD .

But Sexton/ringrose/Henshaw/ Kearney ( by 2)/Gilmore Etc plus a sublime back row difficult to contain.
They amazingly lost 4 or 5 of their own lineout, having at the end of last season not lost one in 5 matches ( Cronin throwing).
They will be a handful for UR unless we get them when the Irish internationals are unavailable.
And Boggy, I am disappointed. I thought you were trying to reform and restrain yourself.
But the psyche shines through.
I wouldn't need to know very much to know more about rugby than you evidently know.
Tosser.
Just to remind you of your predictions that Dragons were useless. Only marginally less useless than UR as it turns out.
At least they have worked out what you are supposed to do at a lineout, as opposed to the complete shambles that we organize. We should decline throw ins near the opposition line. Is this the jumpers......the calls.......or Rory's throwing?

Re: Mexico 2018/19
Watched the Leinster game -- Their toast always lands butter side up -- if Ulster had gone for Lowe's Try -- any ref we get would blow and bring it back for not taking at the proper spot -- and another of their trys had a suspiciously forward pass and even if it wasn't in similar circumstances the ref would have called it forward had it been Ulster --
It was a good win for them but as I say they seem to get the rub of the green more often than most.
