The Dew Drop Inn Virtual Rugby Pub

First topic message reminder :

Welcome to the virtual rugby pub - a place where you can come in for a sly beverage and discuss whatever's on your mind, or just eavesdrop on the regulars if you fancy a break from all the rugby chat.

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the collage of great current props' pictures on the bar. We've got Castrogiovanni, Beast, the Franks brothers, Mas, Tonga'uiha, Roncero, Cian Healey (as demanded by Hughie), Stevens, Murray, Mike Ross, Adam Jones and Steenkamp all in action. Graffiti's a banning offence

So pull up a chair....what'll it be?

Ah Dreamer, the Patagonian Welsh. It is an amazing story. An enclave, built on a dream by a Welsh Nationalist.

Penfro must have relos there.

I knew that Mrs P. I know you have a naughty side mind.

At the end of the Falklands war I met a Welsh speaking Argentinian it was quite surreal.

oh sad news about the one miner MrsP, thank goodness they were able to rescue one though.

and no worries I knew who you were laughing at!

Glas - Ha perhaps in a parallel universe. We were going over today all the different ways you can ask/answer a question depending on what is being asked or what tense is being used. I have never managed to remember/learn them properly and I still couldn't manage it today! It doesn't half confuse me

Just seen that they have rescued one miner but sadly the other has died.

A highly qualified Doctor/Consultant. A superb parent and mentor. An English language smart orse - like Our Kia... A young babe...

But.. a disaster with anything electrical and in matters of Diplomacy. Complete and utter disaster.

Practice makes perfect.

Quite a dancer I hear.

The best of it is, as most of you will have noticed, I can't spell for tofey!

I do know how to spell McIlroy though!

Practice!

Or is it Practise?

Manure have fallen apart a bit (Man Utd). Gone from 2-0 up to 2-2. Man City are 2-0 down.

My course is hard work. Doing a lot of running in my boots, so my legs know about it. Carrying a 20kg Bergen ain't fun either.

All the best to the two miners. Ah sheet. One didn't get out?

Hope all is well for everyone in yer.

It's Tovey.

On this site...maybe practiZe. CentEr. IdoliZe. Farrah Faawcet Majors. Instead of Tap

Hate Yank kulture pollushawn. I really do.

Look, I pay my secretaries to spell for me, right?

well I can't spell and I've an English degree to my name, so spelling can hardly matter that much, right?

Rev - just seen your post, didn't even realise Man U were playing tonight but that's a horrible scoreline for them! Really hope they can get another goal or I'll be a bit

Rev! Yeah man. How can we ever forget Herself, our Cari, Kia and Swanny - dancin half-naked on de pub-tafels? I wont. Ever.

Glad we spiked their drinks that night. It was a great idea by you. Fair dinkum dude. Respekt.

How are you pal? Or does it scare you not to be ignored? Quantum Leap.

Hear hear Dreamer!

Does anyone know why Gibbo has gone all Gangsta on us?

3-2 Basle now. Man Utd are really all at sea

Brick wall, noa dsss

Ha. Gibbo, it does take some getting used to having to respond to somebody

nooo Man U what is wrong wit you??

Nos da Glas.

Ok, I will desist. Sorry pal.

3-3. Ashley Young. About 4 mins of injury time to go

No need to apologiZe buddy!

Thing is MrsP, with you, I always will. Even when I tink I'm roysh.

Well you see Gibbo, there is a difference between thinking you're right and being right!

Im a Ladyboy woman. I'm always right.

And if Im not... I can always go F meself. Sorted.

Just watching Bwitans new Labour Leader on the BEEB . He makes me want to puke.

Praktisz.

Not watching.

Not interested.

Apart from the politican induced nausea, howsaboutya?

Ah I'm grand pal. Looking at jobs in the World Super Power that is India. Lots of rupees. And I love their culture and the people.

We'll see.

Long commute of a morning all the same.

Easy. RyanAir to Pakistan. Walk the rest of the way.
Its cheap and enlightening.

Fulltime obviously (even Sir Alex couldn't wrangle this much injury time). Both sides had chances to win that right at the death.

I am sweating a bit about getting back to Rodney Parade on Friday. I might have to go in my uniform just to save time <yikes>

Motorcycle Emptiness has just come on in the pub. Great song. Loves it.

Rev.
I loves you I does.

Rodney Parade. In full-uniform. Need a pic. Really need a pic on Faceache.

You babe.

Haha. I hope it doesn't come to that G.

Real Madrid's first goal v Ajax was fantastic. Fitting tribute to their opponents. Shame Ronaldo's name is against it

Anyway, night. Best sleep before my beastings tomorrow.

Reminds me of my stepmother's cooking. She taught me more about cooking than she will ever realise

Just got in from Asbo's London based regs birthday drinkies. Nice to meet up with Hoog, kiwi, RiskySports, and the man himself again. Plus injuredyetagain - a suitable moniker given some of the unfortunate things that happened during his rugby career.

A pleasure, as ever, guys.

 Hound what about the Ulsterman

You there Rav? Tell the skirt-wearer I miss him. Left him a message today.

And mind His Hugness.

Eeeeeek...rava. Apologies, but you hardly got a squeak in amongst the Sco**ish rugby doom and gloom.



And ye were stood next to me most of the evening!!

Bad

Off to my basket so I am.

This Tevez thing has really kicked off. Lot of abuse flying about the show on Facebook. Serves Man City right in a way since they tried to play hardball with his transfer over the summer, not that I'm trying to condone his actions. Daft muppet.

Evening all ......................... just got up to see all this stuff on Tevez sounds funny as hell .

It's come back to bite them. If a player wants away you have to let him go. Nasri? Arteta (great call by Moyes)?

Tevez wanted away and City wanted their pound of flesh. Now they suffer. Overshadows a poor poor performance btw.

Think City are probably the only club who could afford to just keep paying him and let him stew in the reserves . Be interesting to see what happens next

So Willy. Give in to the ugly one's demands - even though he pledged himself 5 seconds before he changed his mind?

Phhoke im. Let him stew.

English football is so phooked.
Who's next to throw their rattle out of the pram? Van Persie? Suarez? Torres? All those English players?

They are in it for de muny. Nothing else. If it doesn't suit them, they are gone. God Bless Zola and Bergkamp. Spot de differ?

Living in a bubble. Sometimes think Premiership footballers have no concept of how fortunate they are. Think it's literally unbelievable a player refuses to play on that kind of money.

Amusing though, given the massive billboard Manchester City paid for to goad their rivals when they 'snatched' Tevez from under their nose. Once again Ferguson is left looking like one of the shrewdest judges of a players character in the game.

Watch Kenny at Liverpool. He has Kuit and a few Scousers who will always be solid. The rest... foreigners - he will choose carefully.

He will build from the bottom up too. That is essential. Not just for De Pool. But for English football. Fergie is busy with it too. He always was.

Snap.

Cant knock Ferguson for the players he buys , he very rarely gets it wrong

And funnily enough he tends to get it right when he lets them go. Very few players go uphill after leaving United. Maybe only Ronaldo.

True. Fergie knew to keep Giggs and to lose Keane when his engine was spent. As well as his ego overstepping his intelligence and usefulness.

Lost Stam (he told the truth about the Neville Bros not being real live singers - just dickheads). Lost Van Nistelrooy at the right time.

He is the best manager since Jock Stein and Bob Paisley.

Funny thing is... they were all born and reared yards from each other.

Fergie learned from them. Big Time.

Pains me to say it but Fergie is a great manager ranks up there with the best ever
