Interesting decision to play him against Wolves..as someone on another forum remarked:

That's like using your fragile gold necklace to chain a rottweiler

Interesting decision to play him against Wolves..as someone on another forum remarked:

he's in the middle with Fletcher and O'shea for that reason I think, I'm a little worried about our width today, park is so defensive and not a game breaker and obertan is capable of anything

[sligoboi]

What a fookin goal!!

[ArmaniJeans]

Wow, thats the drunkest I've been in a while. 6 or 7 beers after work and the guts of a bottle of vodka playing $6s and $15s on Stars and talking bolix here. Seem to have broken even over a couple of dozen SNGs which is a result.
And don't really have a hangover either. Result.

(wow, what a goal, 3-2)

[The Situation]

OMG what a fucking finish. How is he not first choice there??

A good friend of mine, Lucy Nuzum who is a photographer made the front page of the Irish Times magazine today, and a spread inside! I'm so proud. If you like it she has loads of other stuff here http://www.facebook.com/photos.php?id=212966703227#


Also, for anyone who saw the Elite Squad, (which is incredible!), they have made a sequel. I'm excited, although a little worried it won't be as good. There is also a trailer with subtitles, but I don't want to spoil the plot for myself

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PZw70BIMzBQ

1st one a cracking film,hopefully be as good

[thedini]

Definitely won't last the match anyways, hasn't even played a reserve game. Scholes to replace him at some stage to add a bit of creativity.

lol, a fair amount of drunkenness on here last night - well done to all participants! Some excellent drunken posts.

Spent the guts of an hour trying to work out how to get the most cooked food delivered to the house for the least amount of money. Ridonkulous amount of food making its way to the house as we speak.


/ also some cool enough words that don't exist in English: http://matadornetwork.com/abroad/20-...und-the-world/

Pizza places are the worst. Trying to work out what the best deal is a science.
I don't like them enough to bother.

[sligoboi]

Was just thinking re: Hargreaves. I remember hearing a while back Fergie saying that a lot of Hargreaves problems were psychological ie getting back playing after so long out and always thinking he's going to get injured. Could it be that he's gone to Hargreaves yesterday and told him he's giving him 45 minutes and that's that. Spring it on him so he has as little time as possible to get thinking about it. Probably not but it's just something that occurred to me.

[Sledgejammer]

OMG what a fucking finish. How is he not first choice there??

He should consider himself lucky to have not been subbed back off. Harrys inexplicable haterid of by far his best striker is pretty hilarious though...

[ComradeCollie]

Question: I have a 'Best of WPT Season 3 DVD' that I'm looking to get rid of.
I can't see anywhere on the box whatsoever what region it is.

I ordered it years ago, I may have got them to send me a multi region thing, maybe not, can't recall. It worked fine on my computer, don't have a standard.

Is there any reason that it doesn't say anywhere on the box what region it is?
Should I assume it is region 1 and they don't bother telling american's this because they know that they are the only region that exist and don't want to confuse them?

/confused.

It's almost certainly region free/region 0. I just checked the season 2 boxset, and the 2003 wsop dvds. Neither say anything about regionality, and both play on my ps3 which definitely won't play region 1 dvds.

New Zealand are very very good!

Anyone able to find Hotspur's wonderful art piece in this thread?
Have tried and failed.

I know some artist was mentioned, can't remember their name, might make searching easier.
Searching for 'art' and 'cunt just doesn't cut it.

[dannydiamond]

Sprinklers come on at St Andrews 2 minutes into the game.

[The Situation]

Hargreaves off injured, LOL

I remember hearing a while back Fergie saying that a lot of Hargreaves problems were psychological ie getting back playing after so long out and always thinking he's going to get injured. Could it be that he's gone to Hargreaves yesterday and told him he's giving him 5 minutes and that's that. Spring it on him so he has as little time as possible to get thinking about it. Probably not but it's just something that occurred to me.

Thats excellent. She's got some talent. Fully deserved.

Just spotted my friend in some of the "Yellow Bird" shots. She did the makeup for it, and now happens to be doing photography with me down in Limerick. She'll be chuffed about this too.

Anyone seen that Budweiser ad with the giant pool balls? What's the song in that ad?

[dannydiamond]

Actually, just on the Budweiser theme. Noticed that tonnes of pubs in Dublin still have Budweiser on tap! Is there some reason why all those pubs would still sell that stuff, or is it some elaborate practical joke? Was thinking maybe its because Guinness/Diageo forces the pubs to sell it by giving them discounted rates on other drinks.

It's one of the biggest sellers in pubs!

[Angry-Ball]

what time is the ireland game on?

[Hegzy]

United are all over the place. Hard to watch

[MegaSin]

IMO of course

[dannydiamond]

Are you serious???!!!

Yeah, unless things have drastically changed in the last couple of years, which I seriously doubt.
Irish drinkers are generally creatures of habit and it's hard to sway them towards different brands.

I worked in bars and clubs for years and it was always one of the biggest sellers.
Power of advertising perhaps, Budweiser is a huge brand.

[UraiseIfold]

Really hope Qatar host the World Cup now.

[Denny Crane]

Next time request it with capitals.

Also, there will be no same name different accounts, tyvm.

I think I'll introduce a new rule for renaming as well.

Spoil sport. Can we at least change the name of the site to "Crane, Pool and KevLloyd"?

Moreso in towns and cities..out the country it's not that popular. Guinness, Heineken, Smithwicks (for the Germans) and Carlsberg (if you're near the border) are all you'd need on tap in a small town or village

[Zuroph]

Budweiser is horrible muck but yeah, marketing and brand loyalty, they have it sewn up. Been years trying to get my mate to stop buying the shit, but despite the constant ribbing he gets for drinking watery piss, he persists.

[AdMMM]

I've noticed that it's not as big in Dublin as it is here in Waterford. It's my brew of choice when out on the beer much to my chagrin as it invariably invites people to comment on my piss water for the duration of the night.

[dannydiamond]

As I said before unless things have changed drastically, Dublin was where it was most popular.
