And football is a game of no wits played [mostly] by half-wits.

Half is a bit generous John - maybe just the 'f'!

So all football fans are basically idiots then, is that what you are saying?

BIZ. Of course not!!. I'm not at all sure how you interpreted my post as perhaps meaning that. I was referring to players, and didn't mention fans at all!! :S :S :S :S . I must confess that I don't like football, or golf, or big game hunting for that matter, but I would not denigrate the people who watch them [except hunting!].

ok lads simmer down....

interesting to see that Wigglesworth has been called up i personally thought that Dan Robson was going to be chosen but as Eddie Jones said, we make the call not you.
will be good to see if Care starts or wether he is on the bench

No simmering down required! I merely asked Jem to clarify what he meant and he's done that. I was obviously misreading the meaning of his post and I wanted to know what he meant.... simple! :thumb:

AshBailey you're really looking for trouble.... :ninja:

i reckon it'll be close but i don't think that Wales are on form enough to be able to come out on top. i know Scotland were a walkover but England might be a harder nut to crack.

looking forward to it tho :thumbs:

ONCE IN A LIFETIME OFFER

England v Ireland March 17 St Patrick’s Day Twickenham

A friend of mine has two tickets in a corporate box for England v Ireland 17th Mar. He paid £300 each, but he didn't realise when he bought them months ago that it was going to be the same day as his wedding.

If you are interested, he is looking for someone to take his place.

It's at Marylebone Registry Office, at 4.30pm. The bride's name is Nicole -- she's 5'4", about 8 stone, quite pretty, has her own income and is a really good cook.

Let me know!

Damn. Sadly [or otherwise,] I am already married to someone with private means. I call her Lady Penelope from time to time. Anything to get a good slapping!. :) :)
