The initials are too much to take in on a Sunday morning BR. Luckily UUB didn't score 40 or I'd have thought I'd been made unemployed. That would have made Sunday Dinner with Mrs Trousers, for whom I work free of charge, a frosty experience.

Let hope they aren't watching in the reverse view as so far it hasn't been a great view from our team"
Hard to feel much joy and confidence but. I keep on telling myself that it is early days yet.

[BaggyTrousers]

Bless you, much simpler for old people.

It's all part of Doakies masterplan to confuse the opposition

Watched jour de rugby on sunday, oyonnax have a v decent looking pack. Were loving the catch and drive option from the lineout. Looked like a decent ground - interesting how much of a factor the plastic pitch will be?

[BaggyTrousers]

Un plastique ? Quelle horreur ............. je dis merde a les emplacements plastique . Deux emplacements plastique dans le meme groupe? Il est un désastre . Ce ne sont pas juste et il est tout simplement pas seulement , deux emplacements en plastique ? Je suis abattu. Foutre.

Are their plastics much different from the plastic we practice on out the back at Aquinas? (Apart from size)?

[rocky]

No, they aren't Grumps. As I understand it, that was one of the reasons they were so keen to get a plastic pitch installed there.
I believe there was consideration given to installing one in Ravers but the IRFU said no. Since then it isn't looking just as good for the plastic pitches - not lasting as long as expected and coming out as pretty expensive to maintain and replace. I imagine we will get a Dessa pitch eventually, when we can afford the initial outlay.

Haut Bugey?????????? Is that a play on my name? First bloody BT, now the Frogs. Damn their impudence.

[BaggyTrousers]

Les Plastiques sont "en TV" a 1.30pm v Clermont. I'm recording it for a wee gleek later.

Just thought all SKY viewers should be aware.

[BR]

ST 37 - 20 Castres
USO 24 - 41 Montferrand

[ruckover]

Toulouse's great start aided by the fact they've lost just four players to the World Cup.

I'd we cut down on some of our wild signings I am sure we could afford it, also in the long run we will save on maintenance .i mean if Exeter can afford one!
