So we really do have to give them credit for that. Fair dos.

But thats just the only up tick in the plus column on the checklist of ruggerby union's offences against humanity.
A bit like saying, "Well the SS did have cool looking uniforms."



Here, Bas.

What is happening in the case in Belfast?

Have the rugger buggers been convicted or acquitted?

I see there in some controversy because their team captain came to court to support them.
Alex Young, Howard Kendall, Andy King, Timmy Cahill, Dixie Dean and Mike Parry.....we'll never see the likes of them again.

Had a debenture seat for Murrayfield for 10 years and saw Scotland against all the home nations and the Southern hemisphere giants.
Was at the winning of the Grand Slam against red hot favourites England in 1990
Been to Cardiff Arms and Twickenham,
All enjoyable days out and a good bevy. and good craic .

But agree with most on here that the TV coverage especially on BBC is overpowering and once again the English media bias surfaces even when England aren't even playing.
Hate Inverdale with a passion and he epitomises what is wrong with the coverage that turns a lot of people off.

Internationally I have never wavered and we have a chance at home against a super confident England side-see 1990

Since then... 3 wins out of 27, and you wonder why England are super confident ?

Extraordinary moment just now when Haid (adopting his obnoxious fake cockney “argument” accent) confronted Goffy about the rugger tomorrow.

“Ya goin’ corporate?” he sneered.

As opposed to Haid and the working classes paying 50p at the turnstiles at Twickers.

Have we got the fucking Welsh today? Fucking hate Welsh rugby fans (I like the Welsh generally). I'm not even particualrly fond of English rugby fans, but the Welsh are irritating as fuck and after a few beers turn well fucking nasty.

We?!

Given that you appear to hate literally everything, I assumed that your one redeeming feature would be a hatred of rugby.

But no.

Just going down to watch the derby formerly known as the 'Two bald men and comb derby' - now that title rests in Merseyside - and just know that while it's on there will be a stream of degenerates and weirdos coming in to ask when the gay noodnickery is starting and pissing us off.
