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 pictures of
ST DAVID, THE Prince of Wales and WALE'S CAPTAIN

Happy St David's day

Well you know where we are Gibbo. Haven't put the tent up yet but that will only take ... ...an hour or two!

Prop, so long as you don't mind sharing the tent with the mad Dutchman.

Not sure my nerves are going to withstand the second half of Arsenal v AC Milan!!!

Arsenal were superb in the first half, fully deserved the three they got.


Hope they win this now

Cari,

How long was it after Gibbo visited Cardiff before you could go into any of the local shops without getting strange looks?

Hi Cari darlin. Not long now pal. I have a full weekend planned for you. Hope you are practicing your cycling girl.

BELIEVE! Must watch the counter-attack bud. Be patient. It is only 1-0 now with 40 mins to go. That's the way they have to think.

This is brilliant. I pray they win for you.

Van Persie to equalise. Wallcott to finish it.

noooooo Chelsea just scored


Trying to watch two football matches at the same time is very hard, the Arsenal score is incredible though! hope they finish the job off now.

+1 - Go The Gunners

Sorry Rav, missed your vraag while I was being slagged by the Pedantic-Twins. MrsP and PJ.

In on Thurs night. Out on the Tuesday aft. Ma's 83rd birthday on the Sat. Dying to see her.

Getting slagged must be a P thingy. Prop is at it as well sometimes.

I'll probably see you on Friday evening some time. I've the Flowers ordered for the Ma

Imagine your poor mother having to cope with your arrival into this world and her only 18years old!

I have no idea what you're talking about...



... just like those poor shop assistants.

Pair a jokers all roysh. Verree funnnee.

PJ,
This Pub was founded on mutual-respect and unrelenting pish-taking. It still Rocks.

Oooooohhhhh arsenal living on the edge, how Milan missed there I don't know.


Milan look like they have a goal in them, I hope not but it looks like it might be coming

Since Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain got slowed up by injury we've not looked the same side. The kid is going to be some player!

Danish back

Ah there's a shame you couldn't find some tidy bacon.

Yeah Hugs, they look like they want to finish it now.

But Arsenal have been magnificient. No matter what happens.

AC Milan at 3-0 down, after the humiliation of the away game? Arsenal would be mad to even question Wenger after that. Best footballing side next to Barca.

hope not either Hughie. If Aresnal could actually pull this off....would just be incredible.


Really good show has just started about Solar Storms on BBC2 but can't stop watching the footy. God bless the i player.

He is special. England have some brilliant young technical players coming through. At last. Just need to intensify the ground-roots effort.

Ahhh I never slag anyone off!!!!! Surely you oldies would have forgotten any insults by now anyway?? I mean it's been almost a month since i've abused MrsP!!

And I'm sure I can cope with a tent....or bring my own!!

Oh dear. This is dangerous. Zlat is a cheat!

Justice!

It most certainly does.

The young pup gives me cheek and then asks if he can come and stay in our tent??????

Go on Glas, don't leave me hanging bud.

MON Arsenal! ONE last surge. Engineer a free kick. Anything. 11 men attacking. Go for broke now.

It's over man, we just ran out of steam.

Gutted but proud of the effort the team put in out there tonight.

Cig moch Cymru

DO it!

Arsenal. Such a performance so unlucky not to go all the way. Pride restored though

I was pointing out how nice i'd been!!!!!!!!!!!

Just goes to show you never can tell with this side. On fire. Now to get that 3rd Prem spot. Must use this momentum. Best football side in England.

"Surely you oldies would have forgotten any insults by now anyway?? I mean it's been almost a month since i've abused MrsP!!"

You have a lot to learn young man!

Ah I didn't mention you for the forgetting insults.....could have been Rava and Gibbo...............

This performance shouldn't be used to mask the deficiencies though Gibbo. The fact that we are clearly heavily reliant on an 18 year old who has only played 9 first team games has to be a worry.

We have some talent in the squad, but Wenger needs to find the missing pieces of the jigsaw that will see us challenging for honours again.

Must check that out Dreamer. It has more to do with the recent weather varitions than Global-warming. Thanks for the heads-up.

Yanks speaking about sawker on my link. Its not proper. They have NO idea.

Interesting sidenote with Oxlade-Chaimberlain...

Whilst on Southamptons books as a youngster he played rugby for his school, and was offered a trial with London Irish, but Southampton wouldn't give him permission to go.

How different things could have been for him.

Much worse you mean?

Sounds tasty Glas, I'm quite partial to cured ham - but does the back bacon grill or is it best left cured?

Prop,

There is that!

So long as you weren't including me in that age bracket!

Don't thank me, thank Twitter and Mr Brian Cox Tisn't on BBC2 Wales otherwise I'd have missed about it all myself.

Now would I do a thing like that???!!!

The question is how can Arsenal keep hold of RVP ozzie??


They need to restructure the whole business plan of the club if they want to keep him. Will they do it to keep him??

They haven't done it for other players, but for RVP? who knows, would be a big risk.

It can be grilled if you soak it to get the excess salt out and leave it to dry overnight. Bit of a faff but it's worth it.

We used to kill and salt a pig at home. Then we had central heating put in. When we were kids my dad used to tell us the fat was white meat so we'd eat it (it was mainly white meat). We also had chickens and I can still remember the colour of the yokes.

I really doubt that Wenger will break the wage structure to keep him.

I can't see us challenging for honours in the near future to be honest, and that's not me being defeatist, it's me being realistic.

We have as good a starting team as anyone in Europe, but even losing 1 player huts us badly as the gulf in class between 1st and 2nd choice players is absolutely massive.
