DerekD Goldfish

both corect stil want to know when ireland won the home championship for the first time


and the oldest rugby ground in the world

whic of the top scorers mentioned became the topscorer a few weeks after the ending of a two year ban for match fixing

manonthemoon

Rugby was invented (Ithink) in the British Public School of Rugby. So would that be the oldest rugby ground.

Rossi was involved in match fixing

When you are talking about no foreigners with regard to Athletic Bilbao, its actually foreign in the sense of non-Basques.
They have won 8 Championchips, and been runners up 7 times.
Were Hungary not the first to beat England at home?

and the oldest rugby ground in the world

If its international rugby grounds you mean then Lansdowne Road is the oldest.

bucks73

The first time ireland won thehome championship (Ireland, England, Scotland, Wales)

They shared it in 1903 with England and Scotland but won it outright for the first time in 1914.

DerekD Goldfish

no flies on you then
rossi was involved in match fixing
landsdown is the oldest international rugby ground
ireland won it outright for the first time in 1914
ir reply to bateman's question ireland were the first team to beat england on english soil hungray were the first to win at wembely.(ireland won at godesion park (I know its the wrong spelling))

Pigman

Just to make a correction to one ambiguous question ... Lansdowne Road is the oldest SURVIVING international rugby ground in the world, which means it is neighter the home of the first international nor the oldest rugby ground in the world.

Anyway here's a Q : Who was the most fouled player in world cup 90 and who was the player who commited the most fouls in the same tournement? CLUE : Both players are very well known to Irish supporters.

irelandforever

was the most fouled player diego maradona

DerekD Goldfish

was the most fouled player hagi
was the most fouls mccarthy

Pigman

McCarthy is right, but Hagi is wrong

Keeks

Schillaci

Wolf

Pele used to get cut to bits due to the fact that they couldnt get anywhere near him.

Also McArthy? not too sure I was pretty sure it was the italian due that used to play for milan during the early 90s he was always known as an absolute animal.

But also are you talking fouls that you get caught for or just fouls?

Pigman

Schillaci's wrong too.

And if you're refering to Franco Baresi it's not him either, trust me, it was Mick.

Finallly, eh, a foul is anything the REFEREE deems a foul. Anything else would just be your opinion of what constituted a foul.
