I'm looking at my own team, still trying to figure what can/could be changed around, and the Sky Sports Super 6 is back as well.

Fantasy Football is grueling, a lot of effort goes in and that's why I tend to stay away from it.

eh i dunno

First year I'm not bothering. Takes too much time and effort

I hate how Fantasy Football makes me happy when players i don't particularly like but are in my team do well.

Not going to bother this year.

I tried fantasy football before, but it was a lot of work. Fall behind one week and it can be a potential nightmare to catch up.

What involvement do you have in Hockey and what got you into the sport? We had a brief discussion about Hockey before in which I said that I didn't see it blowing up here but thinking about it, I'm sure it could get popular in Ireland

I am a level 2 coach. internationally reconsigned coach. Got into it cause of the mighty ducks first movie. Even support the mighty ducks team, not called that any more cause Disney sold the right for the past 20 or so years.

Got my first roller blades at the age of ten from my nan. Got a hockey hockey stick not long after and still use the stick from time to time.
This year a coaching course came up and I didn't think twice about not doing it. I just love the sport.

The figure skaters of Ireland are so doing well winning competitions world wide.

It's short notice I know, but I've set up a fantasy football league for this forum for anyone interested. Here's the code:

1402740-524620

If we could get 8-10 that would be pretty good.

I may as well give it a go to make up the numbers at the very least, thanks for setting it up!

Originally called mine The Midnight Express but once I joined the league I realised I was the only one with a Wrestling reference and quickly brainstormed a new name. I'm disappointed that BH didn't name his "Bounty's Babes".

Is this Fantasy Football worthy of a thread? I would imagine so.

How many are in so far, I'd say it's grand staying in off topic. I'll join when I get back from football later.

Anyone have any idea when universities send out course registration forms for the incoming 1st years?

Angron

Not too bad, Longford Town got a draw in Dundalk. 6th looks to be as high as we'll get this season, but for the first season back up I'll happily take that.

Shamrock Rovers keeper Craig Hyland had a nightmare in last nights Dublin Derby vs St Pats.

A new store has opened in the upper half of GameStop. Imagine forbidden planet but without comic books and the major collectibles. They gave out €25 vouchers to the first 40 people in the door (as well as a goodie bag with posters, key chains, plush toys and a mug). Used the Voucher to buy a Thanos money box and a batman notebook. Good stuff and they didn't cost a penny!

Looking forward to Comic Con tomorrow to unload my actual money at the stalls

IDIOT ALERT. IDIOT ALERT (Me):o

Lads I need a new TV, prepared to spend some money, 90% of telly I watch is netflix, streaming sites etc, is their any advantage to get a smart tv over a hdtv? Big difference in cost.

Sorry if that is a stupid question.:o:o

Just buy a normal Full HD tv and a chromecast. Best of both worlds for much cheaper, and most smart tvs "smart functions" are terribly laggy and never maintained.

Nah the prices aren't too bad really. Pop Vinyls for about €13, keychains and knickknacks ranging from €3-€17 and then some cool household items and shirts from about €20 up

Anyone see gomis celebration against Chelsea today? Crawling with the dreadlocks, reminded me of Balor
