World cup questions again!!

So we have Denmark, Croatia, Italy and Switzerland as our options, fixtures set for the 9th/10th/11th and 2nd legs 12th/13th/14th. Now, do we play our home leg or away leg first? Can we know which of the 3 dates we will be playing?
I want to open up tabs to all 4 countries at the time and book a flight the second it is confirmed

Last time they had a further random draw for who had the first leg at home, it wasn't predetermined by the seeding.
Which doesn't help narrow it down for you I guess.
You could have an Italy venue issue as well, not sure if they have to decide a ground in advance of the draw.

[NewApproach]

Also gambling industry ..pays fuck all tax.

Have you any information to back that point up, or is it just a random, ignorant throwaway comment?

[AndyFatBastard]

I will block every motherfcuker. Arguing is only going to give frown lines.

Oh, so you want to be able to throw out your opinions without ever having them critiqued? I see.

Yeah had noticed that with Italy and changing their venue every game, would just book a flight to Rome and drive to the other place for a couple of days though to be honest.
The 1st/2nd leg thing is a bollox though, if flights are dirt cheap I'll just book both and waste one.


Also, will be looking for 1 ticket for home and away games if anyone knows of any going

If you are happy to travel after flying, 1 flight with onward plans would cover Italy, Croatia, Switzerland. Bologna, Milan or Venice to cover a few bases, so to speak.

Be a bit of craic anyhow.

I think the italy game is a choice between san siro in milan and the new stadium from Udinese. Milan is the favourite I believe.

Shout out to ONE TIME (Fergus) as his little girl got her first call up to the full International squad for the World Cup Qualifier against Slovakia. She signed for Shelbourne during the summer and played all 3 recent U17 European Championship qualifiers (Won all 3 and she got on the scoresheet in 1). Proud (er) daddy moment!

I would be immediately withdrawing her based on the haircut of the coach:

Hanging up on your colleagues, screaming matches at meetings, this academic world has a bit more bite to it then I thought. Ive never had a screaming match in my 17 years working. Never any upside imo and so many better ways to achieve your goals.

Just left an hour and 10 minute meeting that should have been a 3 line email so that we could have all agreed that she can waste her own time doing busy work but there is zero chance anyone else is spending days writing process docs that will never be read.

I was screaming on the inside before pretending I have a call to go on, can still see the glazed looks on peoples faces in the aptly named board room.

If I wanted to open a Degiro account how would I go about it?

Don't have an Irish account anymore which probably makes it a bit more difficult.

What are my options?

Thanks in advance.

Anyone?

[Keane]

Anyone?

Can you not just open a Vanguard account?

[shrapnel]

just watched cardboard gangsters. Not a bad little flick and pretty enjoyable. Feels like a spin off of love/hate to a certain extent but that's not a bad thing.

I have a Questrade account here for ETFs but buying international stocks is ridiculously expensive.

Caucasian is only used in America, so maybe your manager is watching too many yankie detective shows.

Big fan of black people in europe being randomly called African-American. Surprisingly common, maybe for the same reason as Caucasian is. What is the right term now? Black, I think?

Friend just rang she is vaping 5 years, in her job today (clerical in a hospital) they had a health and wellness day yolk. They all got tested for Diabetes, BMI, other stuff etc .

All the smokers were pulled aside to blow into the machine thing.Her friend a smoker hit 12 on the machine. my friend came up as a non smoker 1-6 is rated as non smoker she was a 2. Thats fantastic to hear. Shame its not out there in the media more.

One hates to use the words 'mindblowing' needlessly, but this is mindblowingly inane. Kids not doing religion have to sit in the religion class and can't do homework or other practice on subjects during that time as it might mean they get ahead academically of the kids doing religion.

This isn't some weird interpretation of a policy, this is the actual written policy.

The written policy is from the Diocesan advisor, not the state he says 2 schools took him up on it. I doubt it's true on the ground. ETBI tallaght definitely don't make you...you do need written permission from guardians though and for them to meet with the school. I was just looking at ETB dun laoighre to see if i could find out on their fb page ..but i can't ...it's mad though..http://www.ddletb.ie/Second-Level.aspx?search=1&view=0

Not at first. I was surprised at first stiff and lost but you came across as fresh and natural...even though you said you were hungover. I didn't feel so awkward when you said you were hungover actually..less pressure..so the way i ended up 'remembering' it was different. It became more comfortable in memory. And I thought it was a nice thing to do...
