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.

This is the first Pub of 606v2's second year, here's hoping for another good one.

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the pictures of Augustin Pichot, David Campese, Mal O'Kelly and Jim Williams above the bar!

It's legit...just worked out it may be due to parental controls on Blackberry which I had set up.

Good so you sorted then

Hey, Cari, how are you doing? Long time, no speak.

Oh Holy Moly - Himself at home, so Milan v Lazio on the box. Arghhh! How much bl**dy longer??

I'm guessing you are about as much of a fan of the footie as I am then Puma?

Excited about the trip to Dublin?

Interesting article.

Sorry, I was so bored I didn't finish reading it. *yawn* Does it ever get on to the religious bit?

Bore da by the way.

"But I learned it's not simply a case of the terraces frightening a gay player from coming forward. Max Clifford, the celebrity PR guru, pinpointed the role of agents and their perception that an openly gay player would be a weak commodity in the transfer market.

"If by their star coming out, it's going to affect their earnings, then they won't want them to do it," says Clifford."

Bore da pawb / good morning all. I overslept by precisely two hours and three minutes this morning. I usually use the alarm on my phone, which when it's turned on will go off every weekday morning at 5 am, but lately I've been pressing 'dismiss' instead of 'snooze' by mistake, so I've gone back to my old alarm clock. The alarm on that needs switching on every night, which I'm not used to doing so I forgot to do it last night.

Cycling to work in daylight was strange.

He does in the end, but he does spend an awful amount of time trying to build up some Ulster v Rest thing alright.

THE GUIDE

LATEST HOLBY CITY UPDATE - Mam(my) has managed to get out of the chair and go for a little walk (with a frame)

The first Premiership footballer to come out is going to have to be brave as hell to do it. You can understand why they're reluctant.

I actually thought it was an interesting interview. Don't see the problem with it whatsoever.

I certainly can but I don't think lowered wages would be the main worry. I was more highlighting the way agents saw it.

im amazed there hasn't been an openly gay top flight football in all this time.

That was actually an interesting viewpoint, Munsty. It's the first time something Max Clifford has said has made me think!

I don't know Stag, those yellow ones are quite 'flamboyant.'

I know it’s not the premiership but isn’t the Real Madrid (he certainly WAS at Real) player Guti openly gay?

Was he didn't know that. Guti the Creator. Btw mickey great potential news re: Thorn

tennis tennis tennis!

c'mon Murray!


And morning all/bore da, it's a beauitful Friday today. Clear skies and it's cold and crisp = perfect day.

+1

Actually, maybe I just made that up. says on his wiki that’s he married… disregard.

Yeah, I don’t think we could have found an older dog for a longer road but in fairness he’s still got it. would be a fantastic stop gap, hope it bears fruit.

Like us with Will Chambers just plugging a hole. Still hoping for Nonu

Guti married Arancha de Benito, a Spanish television celebrity, on June 22, 1999. The couple divorced after almost ten years of matrimony, having had two children, Zaira and Aitor, but remained close friends

Garth Thomas was married

Being married doesn't mean anything I don't think.

So was Oscar Wilde.

So was Elton John.

So is Gibbo.

Murray broken already, get a break back straight away please!

me thinks I'm going to struggle to concentrate at work this morning.

So Will Chambers is gay?

Has Murray lost to Djokovic yet?

Morning all.

Hwueh weuh weuh…

Not yet Ozzy, he's 3-1 down in the first set, but that was about 10 mins ago, the Beeb are sooooo slow updating.

Will be tough for him to beat Djoko.

break back! 3-2, Murray serving next

urgh okay tis 0-40, Murray's 1st serve has vanished (surprise, surprise...)

Murray just doesn't have the mental strength to beat one of the top 3 in the semis or final of a grand slam.

Shame of him, he is unlucky in some regards to be around with 3 of the best players of all time.
