Has boards layout changed completely in the last few hours? Or is it because I'm overseas?

I think it's because your overseas. Overseas don't support the legacy site which is being phased out.

Agent Coulson

It's a horrible ugly crap new layout.

Bounty Hunter

Assuming yer all talking about the one I immediately changed back to "The Legacy" site from a couple of months ago. Not a fan at all, although I do use it on my phone

Kerry very unlucky but Dublin showed why they are champions never giving up, not panicking etc. Still think Mayo will beat them on the 18th sep

It was a great game. I thought we were going to cruise it after the first twenty odd minutes but then Kerry came back into it to lead at the break.

I fancy we'll win the final.

https://twitter.com/OOCVince Is this what the "OOC" of Mr. OOC means?

Ha ha ha! That twitter is phenomenal. It only does video clips so I'm sure WWE will strike it down when it gets too popular Saddened it didn't have OOC's Vince impression OHMYYYYYGODREEEEERRUUUUURRRUUUU

ps O.O.C. stands for "Out Of Character" From our e-fedding days, there was an in-character forum (where you cut your promos) and an out of character forum ('backstage' where you chat about the shows, discuss/help each other's promos). Steve was always OOC

Convince this rascal to get flight insurance for going to Merickay in winter please. It's Aer Lingus but I've never flown somewhere when I know it'll be absolutely baltic.

Hey DB - you rascal you. Get you some flight insurance, you rascally scamp. Also, travel insurance in general. Don't be one of those "I never thought it'd happen to me" statistic guys.

Travelling to USA without travel insurance is just plain stupid tbh. Its not that expensive and should something bad happen and you end up in hospital over there you are covered. If you are not covered, you may need another mortgage.

plus 1..... for the sake of 100 quid (at most, im sure you can get it much cheaper), it could save you a bundle if anything bad ever happened.

Nothing ever bad happened me but if it does, depending on the country it can be very costly.

Lord TSC

My brother got bad kidney stones out of the blue in America a few years back. Having the insurance saved our ass in a massive, massive way. One of those things that I never go abroad without.

Great to see Limerick FC promoted back to the Premier Division, looking forward to seeing the big teams again.

Diabhal Beag

Cheers lads. Found out it's only 50 bean. Dunno why I thought it was 300-400.

Amazing to think the road to russia 2018 starts next Monday so soon after the euros

We travel to Serbia and this is a very tough start. A draw would be a good result. Austria play Georgia and Wales travel to Moldova

2morrow we say farewell to the legend that is Robbie Keane. A great player for us although he had a few mares in the Jersey he gave his all and was a great captain. All the best to him for the rest of his career

Agent Coulson

It would be great to see Robbie stick in a hat trick tomorrow and finish his international career in style

If you're ever looking to have a pint with a semi-friendly face when you guys play Bohs home or away PM me on here.

And to see his usual goal celebration in an Ireland shirt one last time

ShagNastii

Brilliant that he is getting such a send off. I'd imagine it will be such a moment for him.

One of our greatest. If you think of Robbie Keane- one think of him in no other jersey than an Irish one.

And the L.A. Galaxy ad in the indo was just some gesture on their part. Some homage to the man who captivated a nation back in '02

The big guy who always paints himself fully green for the ireland matches (you always see him on the tv), is he the same guy that paints himself blue for the Dublin GAA matches ???

always wondering

How close are Ireland to hosting a real NFL game ??? The college classic is on today in the Aviva

ERG89

Fair play to Tipp. Won comfortably today. Was surprised it was so decisive.

I went to the Bears vs Steelers in croke park in 97. Just a pre season game though :P

ShagNastii

Dan Rooney- big time politician is the US, Irish Ambassador to the USA and owner of the Pittsburgh Steelers is seemly pushing hard for it I believe.

Think it was Newstalk's Off The Ball that interviewed him if I'm correct.

Been a lot of college football the last few years so they're definitely dipping their toes. Looking at the rip-roaring success that has become NFL @ Wembley I'd say it could only be a matter of time.

PTH2009

Quite enjoying 'all or nothing' a season with the Arizona Cardinals. Not a huge American football fan either

Congrats to Tipperary on both there senior and minor AI wins brillent performances and a great year for Gaa there with the heroics of there senior football team

Hopefully Waterford beat Galway nxt Saturday in the Under 21 final

Kankan14

Working nights has meant I got to see all the us open tennis. Such a great sport. The only killer now is do I fight sleep tomorrow morning and stay up for the Manchester Derby or try a power nap before it. Danger there either way is I'll be too sleepy to take in the game properly whichever I choose.

Has anyone here gone over to a premier league match? Im hoping to go to old Trafford for a match and wondered how easy hard and expensive tickets are

There's a thread about tickets where lads swap and share and sell them


Generally getting tickets isn't too difficult but don't expect to get them for Liverpool arsenal etc. aim for a lower level team/fixture
