FSA "off topic" thread - No discussion relating to FSA or Soccer - please read post 1

FutureGuy

Hi all,
We have received a number of requests relating to the introduction of an off-topic thread on FSA. We have a good community here and so myself and Mr. Moon have decided to give it a go.

A few rules...
1) Please refrain from using foul language, acting the maggot or doling out insults. As Bill and Ted said, be excellent to each other.
2) No discussion relating to FSA.
3) No discussion relating to soccer - that's that the soccer forum is for.
4) No spoilers for any tv show/film - take it to the correct forum

If we think things are going well, we will make it a permanent fixture on the forum. However, if we feel that it is more trouble than it's worth, it will be closed.

Provisional license applied for. The roads of west limerick are said to be "no longer safe"

Ireland win the toss and will bat first v Pakistan

Cricket, F1 and MMA fun night to be staying up for some sport!

KevIRL

Early wicket

stirling gone for just 3

KevIRL

3 gone now. Need to steady the ship

KevIRL

Great knock Porterfield. Real captain stuff. Pity we haven't managed to get a decent partnership with him though. So far anyway

KevIRL

Review. Looks plumb though

KevIRL

Inside edge. Phew

KevIRL

238 the target then. Reckon its about 30-40 too short for even an outside chance.

A few early wickets though...

KevIRL

A deserved win for Pakistan. Such a pity that they didn't beat West Indies earlier in the tournament though!

Great tournament for Ireland, but they will be disappointed not to make the knock out stage. Fantastic achievement to be in with a great shout up to the final game though even more so when you consider our poor bowling attack. 2007, 2011, and now 2015. Its no fluke, we deserve to be at this level, please don't unfairly restrict us for 201

Some end to it. Unbelievable day. They should do this every year!

They do. The final day is always 3 games back to back. Just not always with so many teams in with a shout of winning it.

I meant the whole score difference angle. I know about the 3 game back to back thing - I unfortunately remember Paddys Day 2007 when chasing an extra try against Italy but then conceding one cost us dearly.

I thought Madigan's miss and Sexton's two might cost us today.

Score difference applies each year too when teams finish level? Think I am completely missing something here....

I basically meant its a pity not every year ends like this with all the drama. Never seen a day of rugby with teams just going for it like today.

They should bring bonus pts for 4 tries into the 6 nations like the Heineken cup.

Then you might end up with the winners of a grand Slam losing the title. The rules are fine, it's the mindset of players and managers that needs to change.

Pretty much every sport would be the same if you had a "highest scorer wins" day.

Imagine a Hurling/GAA/Soccer day like that. Would be great viewing, but wouldn't be very fair unfortunately (as in the best team mightn't win the title, just the one with the weakest final day opposition).

We got quite lucky that we were playing Scotland on the final day rather than France. Imagine if the roles were reversed, England could have done some serious damage against Scotland.

Have organised a swap for FIFA on PS4. Looking forward to the manager mode with Blackburn.

Anyone recommend any good young players to pick up cheap when I start?

Anyone interested in a couple of tickets for the Poland match on Sunday PM me?

Word of advice, book two hours at a go, time flies when learning.
Great fun too.
Kicking myself for not doing it years ago.

Ah the good old days of an attractive and winning French team... Don't want to rub salt but Vincent Clerc last min try in Croke Park was decisive too

.

Sorry for bringing back the bad memories my Irish friends but the French game I've seen tonight after this year 6N has me depressed with the level of "disablement" the 2 major French sports teams currently have

:rolleyes:...

A bit like the Irish team under Jack Charlton you will have to start making use of the granny rule!

That, or take up hurling. :pac:

Meanwhile in an even weirder part of the Internet Finn Harps manage to annoy One Direction fans, always a worthy thing to do...

I didn't know you could become a moderator without even having a driving license:D

And it stops when you are doing your test.

The longest 30 minutes of my life;)

Good luck to both of you, driving a car makes you free. And broke, too...

Would agree re the test. I was very well prepped for mine but the tester was an arrogant arsehole. For some reason when he got into the car, he asked me to take off the seat cover on his seat! My instructor that gave me lessons couldn't even understand that.

That made me even more nervous. Before the test though, a girl sitting beside me outside the office was rabbiting on to me, while we were waiting to be called, about how she was chancing her arm at the top of her voice and that she didn't mind having to repeat!

I, on the other hand, loudly rebuked that it was vital that I got the test for my job!
