    Wannabes tbh.

    You should hear the accent on IB when she's in Dublin, and the difference when she's in Wickla.

    Embarrassing isn't the word for it. :pac:

    Will he be bringing his music with him?

    Perhaps we should ask him directly, he's on Boards.

    They are getting rid of Gilroy?

    I don't believe it, that Claire one I can understand getting the chop, but I always liked Ger Gilroy...maybe he'll be back on Off The Ball hopefully.

    Hmm, Tom Dunne doing the Breakfast, interesting.

    I liked when he used to fill in for D'Arcy.

    It's not the breakfast show he's getting.

    he's going up against D'Arcy/Tubridy/G Ryan

    Good news this, I like Tom Dunne.

    Tom Dunne is going to the mid morrning slot 9 to 12.So Ger is alright.

    Anyone see the the Olympics highlights show last night on RTE 2, they showed the women's hockey semi-finals. Germany/China game looked excellent, but what tarnished it was some dude called Frank? commentating. Shouting his head off, like yer man commentating on the basketball but about 20% more psycho.
    When the clip was finished, good aul' Bill shouts 'That was FRRRAAAAANK with the hockey' lmao.

    I think delija what he is saying is the when compared to women's volleyball - girl's jumping up and down all over each other, rolling around in the sand, giving in to the bi-curious tendancies - men's volleyball just doesn't cut it.

    As for Gah not being 'manly' looking to the rest of Europe - we give 30 men big sticks and send them out to war, helmets optional. Grrrr.

    I feckin love the Olympics. I can stick on the tv at any hour of the day and there's some sport on. Doesn't get much better than that.

    Personal favourites this time round have included - Volleyball (Indoor and beach, men and women), table tennis, handball, water polo, hockey, swimming, athletics, weight lifting and all that velodrome indoor cycling stuff. Quality.

    What date is the game???

    I have been offered tickets for the Pool Manc game at OT. Only problem is they are from a Utd official so they are in a Home area. As a pool fan would it be ok to be in with the home fans?

    Apologies for the 'on topic' post.

    That game is down for the 14th Mar but could be changed for TV.I know a good few lads (liverpool fans) who were at the game last your in Old T,but it was easy for them to hide as we did not have much to cheer in that game.

    Struggling big time today at work. Got a couple of fillings at the dentist yesterday and still fcuking sore today.
    As well as that I have 2 ingrown toenails, one on each big toe and i busted one playing football the other day. Pissing blood out of it and then had to do some hacking at the nail to try and put it right.
    Then some fcukwit stood on my toe at the train station this morning. He apologised then looked at me funny when i almost died with the pain of it.

    Roll on the weekend which seen as i work in Belfast, is a Bank Holiday!! Wooo Hoo.. Surfing in Sligo will probably be on the agenda.

    I understand sports like waterpolo and volleyball sucks to you coz they dont have tradition in Ireland,but we playing it for decades and we are very successfull,thats the point,i bet it would be very popular in Ireland too if you were top 5 on the world in it for decades
