    Ask for it in forum requests. See how far it gets.

    Might be the only thing dumber than the Doping thread in the Soccer forum which descended into the "Oh Barcelona or Spain are clearly on it" thread, certainly no shortage of dopes over there anyway.

    I'll be straight with ye: meant a thread similar to the TV shows thread here. It does get a bit repetitive at times.

    So, I'm on a crazy run of good luck right now, in terms of football bets. Put €5 on my PP account on Monday, and now have €75.

    Monday - Backed West Brom Double chance. €5 returned €15
    Tuesday - Celtic vs Juvi; backed 10 corners (€7.50 returned €15) and Juvi -1 (€2.50 returned €10)
    Wednesday - United vs Real; lost €5 on RVP Wincast, but an inplay corners bet of €5 returned €11, meaning that was a profitable night.
    Thursday - Pool's game gave me a corners bet win (€5 returned €10), followed by a Bale wincast (€5 returned €20)
    Friday - Balotelli wincast prediction of €7 returned €23

    5 days, five nights of profit. Maybe I'm getting better at deciding what bets to follow on the tips board, but this is the best streak I've been on :D

    Good work but withdraw half it now because a losing run is always around the corner

    Know there's probably a DVD thread but was in town earlier and Dealz on Henry St have a few WWE DVDs. All are €1.49.

    Best of Raw Vol.1
    Eve of Destruction
    Best of Survivor Series 87-97

    Had the lot on VHS. Nothing too mind blowing comparable to most WWE DVDs but for less than a fiver ya can't go wrong. A great buy to maybe introduce nieces or nephews to some attitude era goodness.

    go into the user cp then into edit options and it is at the bottom of the page.

    I feel very safe in the knowledge that I never "sold out" and remained with the original skin always.

    Anyone know why Apple have changed the style of their offical headphones?

    Have been getting them in Argos for years now, but went in to pick up a set and they've changed the shape of them. The old ones don't seem to be available anywhere now :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,888 ✭✭✭Charisteas


    See that some media are saying Blade Runner suffered a roid rage attack. How long before Benoit's name comes up?

    They changed the shape to make it more in the shape of your ear. The were charging 40 in HMV iirc for them which was fair steep I think.

    Does EVERYBODY in Donegal wear a replica jersey.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 15,238 ✭✭✭✭Diabhal Beag


    Got in the door and there were 4 people in Donegal jerseys. Picked a bad month to go dry.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,773 ✭✭✭connemara man


    Galway is going to be fun this week alright the oblig thread about it is picking up in the Galway City forum

    They used to be €35 in Argos, but I never mind paying cause they worked for far, far longer than a cheaper pair, AND the remote is brilliant :D

    Why do they have to change everything though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,773 ✭✭✭connemara man

    wearing a Donegal Jersey or other GAA jersey and getting langered

    Sounds like Sundays between June and early September.

    Yeah you can put an ad up for free but can only bump up the ad every 30 days.

    Highly recommend Adverts.ie.

    It's not only free but so quick and easy to put something for sale.

    Compared to ebay which takes about an hour to list something, then you got seller costs, percentage of the final value selling fee, and paypal fees.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,050 ✭✭✭✭cena


    That is good to know. I really need to sell this ds 3d


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,526 ✭✭✭glenjamin

    Meh I'll be sticking with my Xbox for a few more years. Don't have enough time to play many games as it is so not dropping €400+ on a new console next year.

    Was going to ask about this, cause I'm in the middle of developing something I want to sell.

    My main worry with Adverts is the size of the audience and how easy it is to sell something. At least Ebay has a massive global consumer base.

    Same deal here but with Playstation. I dont use it enough to warrent that kind of money. GTA V is on PS3 so that will do me until GTA IV, or whatever follows RDR/LA Noire. Those are the only games that would push me to buy one so I think I'm safe for a while.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 42,605 Mod ✭✭✭✭Lord TSC


    Ps4?

    Moar liek Netflix Device 2!

    No, seriously, that's all I use my PS3 for nowadays.

    Yeah ebay has a worldwide consumer base which is perfect if your developing something in mass production. But for general household items such as books, dvd's, can't go far wrong with adverts.

    If you're developing a single product, you could always try and sell your product for free on adverts listing the minimum selling price you're willing to sell at, and if no luck after a certain time frame, stick it on ebay.

    I'll be watching the Sony conference. No intention of buying one anytime in the next couple of years, but will still watch.

    I'm interested in the power and new IP's. I ain't getting it near launch unless our sheep start having golden lambs I won't getting a Xbox or PS near launch. Still a bomb of 360 games to play and my backlog is SCANDALOUS.
    Milan keeping Barca out, don't get why Niang isn't playing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,628 ✭✭✭Ando's Saggy Bottom


    Puyol looks like one of D'Unbelieveables with the bandage on his head.

    Meelan doing well so far.

    Edit: lol 2-0. Muntari the mutt scores!

    I'd say gtr came all over himself for the first time since the Leinster Final.

    I'm only after removing myself from my roof.
    But as a smarmy fan Barca should know better than underestemate Milan after what happened them nearly 20 years ago.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,469 ✭✭✭✭GTR63


    Kinda hope we get knocked out tonite. I just hate the europa league even its tune is kinda gack. The only actually good team that could up its status then is out (Athletico). The rest is a graveyard of teams that used to be good like Inter, Lyon or Ajax.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,526 ✭✭✭glenjamin


    Nobody will care about winning the Europa League until they change it so the winner receives a Champion's League spot.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Music Moderators, Regional Midlands Moderators Posts: 24,126 Mod ✭✭✭✭Angron


    Yeah, as it stands nobody really gives a toss about the Cup Winner's Cup (if that's even what it's still called).

    Edit: Super Cup, that's the one I was thinking of.


  • Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 22,854 Mod ✭✭✭✭Bounty Hunter


    Just back from Moulin Rouge and what can I say, it was quality and different. We were probably the youngest couple there but really enjoyed it and don't think we will ever forget it.

    Would recommend it to others though yes it is pricey


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,064 ✭✭✭✭eh i dunno


    Anyone see the new die hard yet? I enjoyed it
