The Dew Drop Inn Virtual HEC Final Rugby Pub, Twickenham

First topic message reminder :

Chin chin and 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 pub has arrived in London this week for the Heineken Cup final so has stocked up on cucumber sandwiches ( - KRD ) and Pimms.

The only rule in this pub is one of mutual respect for everyone in it, oh and no defacing the pictures of Ruan Pienaar, Stephen Ferris, Jonathon Sexton, Rob Kearney and Jonny Wilkinson (the five nominees for the ERC Player of the Year award), Nigel Owens the HEC final referee or Adam Powell (captain of Llanelli RFC who are playing Ponty in the Welsh club final on Friday). The CCTV snaps of Prop_Lyd and the other Cardiff Saracens players on tour in Croatia are fair game though.

We will be. If you remember you were going to come up for New Year this year. Even though you let me down, I will be going down to drink with you this New Year

Aye Rava, the two big meet ups in December (UK and Dublin) had me broke come January.

I think that Ulster thread is a lost cause now, tensions are too high and people are soon going to be saying things that they will later regret

Billy are you coming to the final this year. Or next year in Dublin?

Next year Staggy, made the choice to go to the long white cloud this year

MUCH better bet.

Far more exotic than Lahndaan

(EDIT; Rolling eyes at the thread. Not at you Billy!)

Whats up Notch?

Lucky Notch, i didnt want to you

Sure I called that about an hour and a half ago on that thread



Notch how you getting to Richmond from Heathrow??

Yeah but i tried one last time to bring humour to it Hughie.

I know, I know....... .....

Yes, i posted that and then I realised it was quite ambiguous.

I'm not sure Hoog, we need to put our concerted plan of action into place. I understand you can get a bus to Feltham Station and then a train. I'm less familiar with the tube links.

What would be helpful are directions to the triple crown once we get there.

Can I request to be banned please?.... I'm having a bad week on here.... .....I think I've been posessed by GG ....

I think i'll have fixed the Ulster thread. Nothing halts an Ulster thread like talking about flags!!

Quick questions
i) Who is actually going to the Amlin Final ?
ii) Who is going to be watching it in a pub near the Stoop ?

Stag you are one baaaaddd person

Im convinced it will halt the thread. Just you watch.

Penfro, apparently if you are able to show your HC Ticket you will get £10.00 off the admission price to the Amlin Final.

Anyone else watching the cricket?

RAVA - I might take them up on that unless I can get someone to watch it in the pub. Are all the other 'Auld Fellas' going to the game ?

Finally somebody is agreeing with me

Afternoon all. Finished work now. Gym then home.

Was thinking about Saturday on my way from Oxford to Swindon earlier and what songs will be played after Ulster win. I remember Elbow - One Day Like This from last year and they played that Titanium song and Beegees - You Win Again after Crosskeys' Swalec win. All songs that I like. Hopefully Twickenham will serve something good up for the old memories.

Oh Stag!

Yea Rev, maybe they will just put on the remix version of "Stand Up For The Ulstermen"

Glas has just been called a troll

Yes, the other Auld Fellas all have tickets for the Amlin, but PcPete is meeting us beforehand so would be around to head to the pub to watch it with

My aul pair are staying in Twickenham so no doubt I will end up headed to Twickenham with everyone after hampstead. However I will not and I repeat WILL NOT be going mad Friday evening. I want to be in flying form for Saturday

Down in flames

Ah Hughie, you should know better than to put the mockers on yourself like that. I said the same last year, we all did. Serveral jagers and verses of Monto later we were all pickled.

Ahhhhhhhhhhh this week has just got even better: got a flat, g.f got a job, going to Croatia and......my sister has just got engaged and I've been asked to be best man

all round!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excellent, Prop! I've been lucky: three brothers-in-law and I get on well with all of them.

This is brilliant:

excellent news Prop!


ha that's brilliant Lucky! I've just tuned into the cricket now, love love love TMS.

I haven't really got into the cricket today. I'll watch the highlights tonight, that should do the trick.

PM for Hoog

Rory you're too kind sir! .... I was tempted to jack in my account in a tantrem earlier.... but thankfully Anscombe has come and taken the heat of me..... ......

I reckon a blinking Leinster supporter organised for that text to be sent to try to distract Ulster!!!!

We have them worried lads!
