    Yes, I'd highly recommend them. Have used it for years without a single problem. Good signal all the time, cheap rates giving me what I need. They're owned by 3 now, so I'd imagine they operate on the same signal

    Thunder, Ben Portsmouth, Iron Maiden, Kiss (in Birmingham), Airbourne, Download Festival (in Donnington), Aerosmith, Guns n Roses (in London), Alter Bridge, ZZ Top.

    I have an outside chance at U2 tickets and am waiting for the Metallica announcement too!

    I LOVE LIVE MUSIC! :D

    So Metallica have announced the Euro leg and Ireland is not included in the 2017 or 2018 leg

    Going for Glasgow on the 26th Oct

    Teams I bolded are who I would like to see in the semis. Would be a fantastic line up.

    Dortmund and Monaco should be a hell of a tie

    And for the second time Ireland has become the 1 in the 18-1 denying a second team from setting a new record!

    Chuck Berry passed away this afternoon.

    Passed the interview, placing 70th nationally. No idea where that leaves me on a regional basis though.

    Delighted, you'd be surprised how fast you may be placed.

    Im still waiting on my results...... :confused:

    Congrats on passing your interview Gerry..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,959 ✭✭✭diusmr8a504cvk


    Congrats on the interview Gerry!

    I met Cork City manager John Caulfield at Limerick and Finn Harps last Saturday. He was awfully nice and let me take a photo with him :)

    Watching Soccer Republic on RTE2 and it's very bloody sad listening to them talk about Derry City's captain Ryan McBride, who passed away yesterday at just 27. Horrible. I always consider League of Ireland fans to be quite like the Wrestling Community, tight knit and a bit cultish, we all have our own favourites and villains but ultimately we're in it together. :(

    I think love him or hate him depending on your political IRA views, he did good with the peace process, he did seem to go downhill fast since his retirement - RIP

    I hope his funeral goes off peacefully

    I would like to see a biopic film of his life

    He was there scouting Ogbene :D

    looking forward to a few bottles and the Ireland game tonight. Cant see us winning as were missing a lot of quality through injury and suspension (Brady, Arter, Duffy, Murphy). A draw would be a good result but Wales need to win this to keep there hopes alive

    Still well up a bit watching Bradys goal vs Italy in the Euros :D:D (one of the best sporting nights in my life the county was hopping that night)

    100% agree, it was mental. I remember going to work the next morning and Put 'Em Under Pressure was on and the car next to me had it on two and we were all singing it out loud at the traffic lights. Unreal.
