Just got this in my email, if anyone is interested!

England v France

Sing at the top of your voice, shout like there's no tomorrow and roar with the crowd at The O2 this Saturday at 8pm.


The Big Match. Even Bigger

If you thought the English pack were big, wait till you see them 20 feet tall on the big screen. If you can't be at the Stade de France, be at The O2 for this free event.


From 6pm, enjoy the pre-match build up hosted by Mark Durden-Smith followed by live screening of the match. Kick off at 8pm.

Be at the biggest gathering of England fans outside of Paris, as you swell with pride singing God Save The Queen and Swing Low Sweet Chariot

For the hottest FREE rugby ticket in town text 'RUGBY' to 60505. But get in quick as there is only room for 5000 people.

I thought the Haka lost all its remaining credibility a few years back when, before the France v NZ game, some of the French players generally minced around a bit and blew kisses to the All blacks Corps de Ballet as they performed their risible pre-match routine...

OMG that was tense!!!! & I missed the first 20 mins thanks to Pizza Pan on Barry Rd taking so b****y long to cook a measly little 9inch pizza :-S. So in the event of jumping around the living room ecstatically I missed who, where & what time our lads will be kicking ass next weekend... Please enlighten me?


Cheers GG

Not this time mate.


Ancient Chinese proverb say: Key to victory is learning from past mistakes.

Ancient Andrew Sheridan proverb say: Key to victory is trampling all over Schalk Burghers face.

Was it not Confucius who said that, ?Pre-match sledging is much fun almost as fun as watching South African juggernaut trampling all over puny English rugby team whose pretty white clothes will need much Daz? to achieve whiteness once more after game.?


Although I am sure it is also written somewhere, ?Maketh sure that if thow art going to be a cocky bastard in the land of thine enemy that thow chooseth a seat near the door and wears thine running shoes for there are those who would administer a contritional wedgy which would greatly tear thine springbok underpants. Yea verily.?

I?ve got a few people coming from weird and wonderful places like Beckenham and Croydon to watch it in ED. I don?t know whether to take them to the CPT or the Plough. The Plough is easier for people to find I guess but I prefer the CPT.

    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here. 
    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect 
    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic. 
    • To be fair we are as hosed as the majority of other countries post-Covid. The problem is Labour promised way too much and leant in on the we need change and we will deliver it and it was clear to anyone with a modicum of sense that no change was going to happen quickly and actually taking the reigns may have been a massive poison- chalice. As Labour are finding to their cost - there are no easy answers.  A wealth tax seems straightforward but look how Labour have U-turned on elements of non-dom - why? Because the super rich started leaving the country in their droves and whilst we all may want them to pay more tax they already pay a big chunk already and the government saw there was a problem.
