    I didn't actually back them against city,I thought it might be a bridge too far.I genuinely don't care,just so ecstatic that they won.I have been following the hammers for about 46 years and it's been a rollercoaster, I gotta take the good times,cos with the hammers they rarely last too long!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,538 ✭✭✭droidman123

    I rarely do football bets. But my goodness, if you had hit that 12/1 you'd be laughing your head off!!!

    Off the radar, had a pretty **** last few months, missus had a miscarriage end of May, found out at our 12 week scan and were due to tell everyone at bbq the next day so that was very rough. Then out of the blue a mate of 25 years took his own life in July so still trying to come to terms with that.

    The day my friend died we got confirmation the missus is pregnant again, 14 weeks tomorrow and have been trying to get a place in college so starting Cert in Computers tomorrow, nice to have some positivity.

    Cheers man, a lot better now she is pregnant again. Our 2 year old doesn't stop so he is great for taking our minds off things.

    Had a mouldy head on me yesterday. Driving around last night like a character from fear the walking dead, ravenous, wondering what to eat. Chinese. A steak. Settled on a 1/2 lb of bbq wings, Mexican burger and giant strawberry milk shake. Was then cured.

    Interesting stat to back this up.

    Clare is the only county where the senior hurling panel and senior football panel have the exact same players. Makes training easier and explains the lack of quality in both.

    I,d say all those injuries have caught up with him.he has had such bad luck in the last few years.I liked him as a jockey and I hope he does well in what ever road he takes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,681 ✭✭✭BumperD


    Yeah, he had rotten luck with injuries

    And he was crap the last 10 years or so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,681 ✭✭✭BumperD


    Was he that bad? Cannot recall him giving bad rides any more than the rest


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,775 ✭✭✭✭Slattsy


    Never really rated him myself

    Yeah, terrible, could never understand how he was ahead of Hutchinson.

    The last memorable ride of his I remember was Cee Bee in the Supreme.

    My car would not start for the 2nd time in 2 weeks. After a full day of running diagnostics, The only thing the garage found is that it happened on a Tuesday, same day as last week. It's like being at the mercy of Dawg the Bounty Hunter waiting to see how much they will charge me. Hate when mechanical , car or household stuff goes wrong, I wouldn't be able wire a damn plug.

    Hate that ****. I remember when it used to be mechanics working in garages. Happened a mate before, twice in the garage and twice computer says dont know. I mentioned it to my dad who diagnosed the problem in 2 seconds, he went to the garage with my mate and told the "mechanic" what was wrong, yer man never heard of the part.

    Your problem could be the millenium bug...

    Is flat racing nearly over? Pure dirt

    I know nothing about cars except where the petrol goes, I'm dreading when I change to diesel cause I know I'll put in petrol some morning.

    I had an intermittent starting problem before, just wouldn't start randomly, luckily my local mechanic knew that it was a faulty starter motor and changed it out, since then I've gotten 1 of these yokes and an app on my phone, it means I can do a full scan of the engine while I'm driving along so any intermittant problems will show up, it's also very handy for showing the actual speed I'm doing as well.

    Beer in the fridge and Indian ordered for later, might just pop 1 of the beers now
