mate stop being sensitive. Normally i like reading your posts but saints defended the headline (which you could have been fishing with) but you fired the shots when you called him Tommy Robinson

edit: nothing to see here seen you've resolved it

Tommy Robinson - solid British name for a solid British bloke ..... although his real name is Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon ... not quite so "solid" <whistle> <laugh>

Nah, he was Scottish Ern, from Dumbarton.

Ireland wasn't a nation back then anyway, it was split between different tribes and chieftains.

It's the British that treated them unfairly Ern, particularly since the reformation, but thanks to Paddy we can still have a good time on his patrons day.
I've never celebrated Paddy's day, never would. Guinness is ****ing gopping.
 
totally disagree about the argies.

It's because they don't move the ball well at all which is why messi drops so deep.

Then the greedy little ****er wants to take on a few people before releasing or assess all his options rather than moving the ball quicker. They'd be better off leaving him up top to burst pass some and slam it in

Yeah, I agree with this. Great as Messi has been for his club - and that greatness is undeniable - his performances for his country illustrate how over reliance on one or two World Class individuals, can sometimes be detrimental to a team's performance.

It's for that reason I am quietly optimistic about this England side. Harry Kane aside - and he seems a pretty humble chap - there doesn't appear to be one genuinely World Class player in that team. And that's a good thing, or can be; no trying to shoehorn Gerrard and Lampard into the same side, no trying deperately to get the ball to an underperforming Rooney, etc. Just a bunch of improving youngsters willing to play for each other, and do what the coaches ask of them.

If you have never drunk 12 pints of the black stuff on Paddy's day, and had your lot down on an Irish winner at Cheltenham, you really haven't lived <ok>.

Waking up with a Guiness hangover, ****ting pitch black molten lava, with your pockets full of losing betting slips, and no memory of the preceding 24 hours, is another character forming experience no man should miss.

Love a pint of the black stuff m'self ... purely medicinal of course <whistle>

Nope sorry, not convinced. If that's living then you're welcome to it mate.

Off on a slight tangent, anyone tried Guinness Hop House lager?

Bloody lovely but it's on the string side of ok and gives you a right head **** the next day.

Nice stuff the hop house, it's everywhere now.

Guinness also do a golden ale that's lovely, had it on tap in a local pub recently.
