Thinking about the class thing, surely the vast majority of rugby supporters, clubs and players in Ireland are middle class?

Young Munster maybe an exception.

[Raoul Duke III]

Mind you, aren't all soccer supporters meant to be working class sons of the proletariat?

And then Jose complains about Old Trafford being like a morgue....

[shrapnel]

Well yeah being middle class they're the ones that can afford to travel, but we're talking about home atmospheres here.

There is no difference any more between lower middle class and working class other than manners

[Raoul Duke III]

You're all west Brits!

You're from a republic, stop calling the working poor working class and the working well off middle class, ya soup taking bastards

Bad when a lad from the West, who qualifies for a British passport is calling YOU a west Brit

Still some work to do. Big conversion by Farrell there.

[shrapnel]

My youngest, in my mind, is a ridiculous rugby talent. Only 10, but such a good rugby brain, and tackles like a truck, without an ounce of anger. If he gets past his laziness (very French), it's great to think he qualifies automatically for France, England... Or Ireland

[Raoul Duke III]

That's the game. In fairness to Saracens, they put it up to us but fairly one-dimensional in attack.

Could be sweating the dream final now.....Leinster-Munster. ONE TIME.

[Raoul Duke III]

Did the commentator just say Racing-Munster is in Bordeaux?

There'll be more red there than blue!

...Fuck Lazare, some difference this year compared to the year of the documentary...No one even came close this year...

Brutal conditions apparently. The Irish lad completed two loops but missed the cut off on the second one. Likely because he broke his shoulder a bit into the first loop.

Looking forward to reading his race report.

[luckforsome]

Any appetite for The Masters Golf comp thing this year? Thank post if you'd be keen and il get it rolling.

/Thanks whoore.

...Are you gonna be running something for this, or are people going for the one NicNic linked?...

[Strewelpeter]

It's a class thing. We've been here before. Teams with a lower class following always make more noise.

This is Ireland we don't have class, only money and education to categorise us

The West African family 3 doors down have been in full-on party mode for about 10 hours now, tunes blasting since mid Sunday afternoon.

At the risk of going slightly Jack90210mode it would have been nice if they'd slipped a note through the door to say the entire cul-de-sac would be blocked off with cars randomly strewn across the road and gangs of the womenfolk in floral headdress all jabbering at about 100 decibels so they could hear themselves above the row of speakers in the garden blaring out their favourite tunes.

I sneak me head out the front door every now and then, part disapproving, part hoping for an invite. Neither look having any effect.

That the non-stop rain is keeping most of it indoors is kinda mad, what would it have been like otherwise?

Have you decided on a bet for us to put on yet to make us both rich, young RiggerJnr?
I'm older so you'll need to reach a decision in the next 15 years or so.

Edit. It pains me that you said 'could of' instead of 'could have' by the way.

Huh? It seems like you think the Easter Bunny and Jesus are connected in some way?! What exactly to you think is the religious symbolism of the bunny?

We definitely do Easter eggs - it's just the actual 'easter bunny' character. I'd wager less than half the people on here had an Easter bunny as a kid - it's definitely not as widespread as Santa anyway

I thought you didn't do eggs lol. As for the bunny, we had it around as a kid. But you got one egg from him and we used to get the buns which we called hot cross bunnies! (as kids we did, not in general)

Santa, Tooth Fairy and Easter Bunny were all things we grew up with. But the least popular/known was def the bunny.

No clue how the bunny came about. An Easter chicken would have been better to market since they at least laid eggs!

[MrsFlushdraw]

Talking of April Fools, just after I posted on IPB I sent a group message between myself, Tony and the two eldest. A while back Willie did his predictions and said Tony would run off with a young foreign chick..

So I message to say that we were telling them by messenger as we didn't want Aimee to hear right now, but Tony had met a girl through work who was much younger and after he gets back from Cancun for his work trip he was moving in with her! I said Aimee has met the girl and named her. The eldest shit herself and the son guessed straight off it was an April Fool he said he got a fright for a second before he realised the date.

Inconsiderate neighbours up banging on the walls at 3 am. Lucky for them I was up playing the bagpipes at the time.

Had a big family dinner yesterday where my daughter made a nice creme brulee for desert, very well made and tasty but made even sweeter by playing an April fools on her Sister by giving her a perfectly presented dish but with scrambled eggs under the crispy sugar instead of custard. Her video of the victim politely putting down her spoon and wondering WTF is that would only be better if the perp hadn't been in hysterics laughing from the start

[Trippie]

Did another podcast interview, would appreciate all the clicks in the world that you have to spare. Talking about seasonal planning,patterns of play & tactical periodisation.

I can't imagine this being even considered possible as a prank in Munster households.

Folks, I've two tickets for Arcade Fire for this Friday, 6th April at the 3 Arena that I can no longer go to. Face value is 172 quid but happy for them to go for 150 to a regular on here.

Was looking forward to it but after just coming back from a three day wedding, we've decided to head off to Ibiza for a few days to chill out so won't be back in time for it.

PM me if anybody is interested

Doubt it, it's all about taking the chance and getting that McGregor rematch I'd say. It's exactly what the ufc want now too obviously. 6 days notice, keeps his belt, has feck all to lose taking this chance and everything to gain.

Head of CPS Alison Saunders not having her contract renewed. From the commentary I've read she had a particular focus on sexual crimes often without enough evidence leading to cases collapsing etc. Not sure if she would have been directly involved in the decision to charge in the Belfast trial but interesting timing none the less.

[Flushdraw]

Pardew sacked by West Brom after 4 months. Lol football

He did need to go tbh. 9 successive defeats and 10 points adrift of safety. They look doomed, but best to get a new manager in to see them through and get an idea of the squad. His last 29 games in the Premier League have been 2 wins, 7 draws and 20 defeats, but no doubt he'll be back in a Premier League hot seat in the near future.

I think Pardew has run his race in regards to getting a Premier League job anytime soon. Expect him to take over a National side probably from the Middle East or something soon
