Re: Rugby Union
Well I can help you with that one - 2004, when Saesneg went from heros to zeros
Still, in the words of Kelly Jones...
Quote:
We don't wanna be,
Your enemy,
But when we're on the field,
It's red, white and green,
Got beat by the Irish,
Got beat by the Scots,
The French had a struggle,
But you're the one we want,
We want...
As long as we beat the English,
As long as we beat the English,
As long as we beat the English, we don't care
As long as we beat the English,
As long as we beat the English,
As long as we beat the English, we don't care
We don't care

Re: Rugby Union
Just back in. Was at the Bot in Belfast to watch the game, atmosphere was great almost as good as being at Croker. Great game. If only we had kept our concentration at the end of the French game.

If I could make my little winkie face bold for you I would?
He is a good kicker, hense his offer to go and play American Football to help out with their kicking.

That's true and you haven't heard me gloating about our past glories have you. I may be born English (albeit with a fair bit of Irish blood in me) but I'm not arrogant and don't believe in the sort of bigoted stereotypes you seem to. |
