    True, I want to change my vote to:

    Ruu with a Willie O'Dea moushtache.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,281 ✭✭✭PullMyFinger!


    Early polling would seem to indicate that have a 3 horse race between Brian Cowen, Chuck Norris and Pighead. Political correspondents are anticipating a bloody battle, no man is expected to ever be the same again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,044 ✭✭✭gcgirl


    Pighead all the way :D:D

    As for Biffo no way!

    Scared of the opposition winning your poll?

    Care to correct your fundamental error on the other two threads before I do it for you?

    I sincerely doubt that RTE or the Indo would be so downright idiotic as to make such a ridiculous statement. You on the other hand still don't even realise your mistake!

    There were 159,000 persons over the age of 15 unemployed in 1997.

    There are currently 2,095,000 in employment.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,620 ✭✭✭Grudaire


    2 million eh!?

    Right this a farse of a thread, but on a more serious note the runnings between Lenihan and Cowen.

    So... C'mon Trevor!

    I voted for Alex Ferguson. He supported Blair/Labour though :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,528 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy

    PullMyFinger! should throw his own name into the ring. His grasp of simple maths is as good if not better than Bertie's.
