Commiserations Wales

First topic message reminder :

If they do not quite do it, of course please accept my heartfelt condolences - and I hope my countrymen accept an unlikely victory with good grace.




Added Bit:

That was really squeaky bum time. Massive heart from the Welsh to fight back like that.

I didn't mean everyone is obsessed, but there are clearly a few who take a special interest.

Not much. Although Gwlad does  seem to talk a lot about England.

Yes I'd say most posters aren't overly interested but there are a few who clearly are a bit too interested.

Good god Tiger pull that stomach in stick that chest out and march forward like all good English men do.
Chatting to Eddie yesterday and he alluded to the awe he had for us English men, so tall so handsome and so dam good at everything.
So it is about time you remembered you're heritage.

See the quoted post is what happens when a carer turns their back on their patient for five minutes, and has forgotten to invoke the parental lock on the computer.

Is that name of yours a reference to the colour your eyes seem to be going? And is that froth I can detect around your mouth? Sounds serious but I would guess the symptoms should subside after around 36 hours.

It may get worse before it gets better though

I think that LT had a premature ejaculation on this forecast.
 But didn't stay to clear up afterwards.

Premature - I think he was the fella behind Englands last aborted Grand Slam DVD a few years ago
The guilt and pain must be unbearable on top of the RWC. Should've been a Lion instead of a Tiger, he'd still be posting now even though I know he's perusing the site maybe waiting for an olive branch They don't like it up 'em Pike - Here kitty kitty!!

Wow

Well I am a real doctor, not one of you medic types who don't really have the right to use the title. But then I am only really qualified to fix any maths equations you might be having problems with.

My son is maths PhD .....well next couple of months.

Legend of a post.

Some posters on this site really have the breaking strain of a Kit Kat

Congratulations. Its a big deal. Just tell him not to hang around in academia any longer than he has to - unless he enjoys the politics or wants to use it as an excuse to get overseas

hates uni Admin he'll be off to business start up or hopes so

eirebilly wrote:Some posters on this site really have the breaking strain of a Kit Kat

Yes and the 2 finger snack version at that.

Well done Wales for a fantastic fight back.
like in RWC ... true fighting spirit.
Fortunately England held out just. ..This time.

Well played Wales, great game.

Cheers Tighthershead

Ok London Tiger.......you can come out again now.
Oh and well done Wales on an incredible fightback.

Are you not even going to say Well done England.

Oh wait England beat a  very poor Welsh side.    and not the Wales number 1 team.    I get it.

Yep, I'll second that. Fair play to Wales, fought back from a potential routing, something England didn't quite manage to do in 2013!

I know your spelling is atrocious, but can you not tell the time at least? That post is way before kick off. Have you learnt what is required for a triple crown yet, seeing as you're acting so clever?

As an England fan who gets drawn more into these spats than I should I'd say that personally I only have a real problem with two Welsh posters, and one of the sweetest things about today is that at least one of them will probably 'disappear' for a while. Amongst all the shouting there have been a lot of decent measured discussion (and an escalating argument over Billy and Talupe around which everyone more or less agreed but still managed to fight - reminding me of me and the mrs...)

I'd add that its worth remembering this when you guys react to, say, maj's post above because its aimed at our friend from Vancouver not the rest of you.

I'll react to madge, as he has no reason to act as clever as he does. When you don't even understand what a triple crown entails, should you really act like he does?

Least most wums are able to make their point correctly, bar Hersh who is unfamiliar with a certain thing and madge who is found wanting on more or less everything.

If you are looking for something to get offended by you'll usually find it

lostinwales wrote:If you are looking for something to get offended by you'll usually find it

Yes, I am offended by his pretence of being clever. Think that's fair, because that cap certainly does not fit.

hmmm think you're just not getting madge

What's to miss?

Or, as i believe, it is petty to get offended every five minutes.

There is a group of posters on here who take their opinions soooo seriously and seem to think they have some proprietary right over this site (and what is and isn't 'offensive') they look to become offended at every turn and frankly i find their mock outrage just as offensive.

And this same group indulge in what i often think are offensive comments themselves but nothing ever gets done about that.

Gwlad I have to agree with you here too. Pooly, Hoonercat, Hammersmith and some others are said posters. After their failed attempts to shout you down and undermine your arguement with petty insults they resort to complaining like children. Very sad that having a different opinion to these lot classes you as a WUM.

Both of you continually troll and deliberately spoil threads with your paranoid nonsense. I avoid anything that you post on because of this - its ruins these boards the constant trolling. I visit and post much less on here simply because of your trolling ( and a couple of others)

My old Welsh Cornish mate Ruby.
 I invited LT back....it is now safe to return to the scene of his OP. 
I have a preorder in for the DVD and T-shirts Ruby. Let me know, how many you need. And a pint of Doom Bar is on its way.
Brilliant Welsh counter attacks at the end btw, Well Done Wales,  but fortunately for England not enough to turn over the result.
And Mojo Itoje....what a find.

What are Wales going to do about Cuthbert? He is ok with the ball in hand but defensively he is a nightmare. Surely Amos should be ahead of him?

Sorry Billy but I think you attributing far too much skill him.
