It's all a load of Cannonballs in here! This is the virtual Arsenal pub where you can chat about anything except football. Be warned though, like any pub, the content may not always be suitable for everyone.
How do you think I feel?!
I live in RUGBY, so I have to put up with the "Engage" ,"Ooh Ooh Ooh", shit everytime I fancy a pint when the Eggchasing is on. I/we also have to listen to all the bullshit about Rugby fans being so friendly and non trouble making,( a bit like the Bin-Dippers),and how they can't stand Football. These will be the same people in England Football shirts at the next Euros and World Cup. WANKERS!!!

No, Mr Dunne. No, it is not.
But enjoy the free grub and piss up! Just make sure you get that arse tight to the wall - when those towel flickers get a few beers on board they get very into exploring people's arseholes with their thumbs. According to Spuddy anyway!!
wouldnt be going if it wasnt free as we are in dublin tomorrow for the weekend without the kids which i booked months ago so heading to the foggy dew for a few scoops, my fav dublin pub
The way I see rugby. A load of huge men jump on top of a ball in a big pile. Eventually the referee blows his whistle for an infringement by one of the teams, an infringement that no one could see or understand. The huge men then all stand up and form two lines facing each other. The ball is given to one of the smaller men who then kicks it directly into the stands. Now a smaller bunch of the huge men form two lines facing each other near the edge of the pitch. Another of the smaller men then throws the ball over the two lines of men. Some of the huge men lift another of the huge men in an attempt to catch the ball, The one who catches the ball falls to the ground and a load of huge men jump on top of him in a big pile. Eventually the referee blows his whistle for an infringement. Repeat for eighty minutes or until everyone is asleep.
The scrum in rugby right now is just a complete joke. Far too many resets and penalties, often arbitrary which nobody can fathom.
Think England will turn Ireland over tomorrow, and if they do that's game over in terms of the Championship. England will cruise their last two games, whereas even if Ireland win they could get beaten in Cardiff in a fortnight.
Good win for Wales, although I can't help but to feel that a (partial) recovery has papered over the cracks and in the grand scheme of things will just prevent the change in approach and style that is required.
Scotland losing to Italy at home is a shock. Although I never bought into the talk of a Scottish revival before the tournament, Italy are as far away from the rest as they were 5 years ago.
free food and beer for 2 hours before the game yesterday thanks to my free tickets not the best game ever but ireland won and thats all that matters taking your beer to your seats is not a good idea i got more drunk as the game went on , football has it right with no beer at your seat
There was a lot of sport on TV last Sunday..at half time I think during the Arsenal v Everton game I was flicking through the channels ..I accidentally came across this Oierland V England Rugger game.. I watched for about thirty seconds. During that time a caption came up on the screen displaying the collective weights of both teams or maybe it was the "pack " of both teams.....With all due respect how can the weight of a team or one section of that team be relevant in any real sport ?
i like rugby tbh, not that league rubbish but the union game but saying that it is well down my list as proper football will always come first and then i do like my GAA and go to as many cork games as i can during the summer.
