Hilarious stuff. I was tempted to sign up so I can pitch in but I just cant be bothered!

Saints fans are not wild about us either....

Jealousy is a terrible thing.
Given the jubilant "in your face English whinging losers" postings I have seen on a couple of the forums (fora?) I browse I actually think the residents there are taking the mocking very well. Yes Leinster are the best side around at the moment but some of the triumphalism is very Munster circa 2008/2009. It doesn't take long for the wheel to turn.

Can't we just rave about how good Leinster are at the moment without mocking the opposition supporters?

Quick rave about the company in the car on the drive to and from Leeds. Conor, Paddy, Richie and Nick made a long journey great craic. Considering most of us were meeting for the first time in T1 Dublin and Leeds Car hire stand it could have been a deeeeee-saster! But instead it was mighty. Great tunes Conor! Well played. :D

Similar enjoyable experience for me. Except we didn't have any music and the radio wasn't tuned. :lol:

The Tigers board looks to have had posts removed/edited. I can only assume it's their success in the past that has made them a magnet for the drunken (judging by the time/language) posts from opposition supporters.

One or two gems also popped up on 606.

606 is a forum for people who are too profoundly stupid to use google. it is on the same level as 'munstermicko's comments on farelly's drivel in the munsterpendent. so it doesn't really count in my eyes

the tigers forum is interesting. some informed posters but for the most part a community of bigots, at least when it comes to leinster. their success in the past is just a reason for hostile jealousy now. having said that i haven't seen any obnoxious leinster posts on there, the fact that a leinster comment is removed means nothing

i think the point i was trying to make in my earlier post is that i disagree with you, and from what i have seen there is a widespread hostility toward leinster (especially among the english clubs fans). this fills me with confidence that we are on the right path, long may it continue

That was a great trip , helped by some stellar driving by yourself, especially the return leg. I don't know which story was funnier the crashed Garda car involving the Chinese takeaway or the deportation from the USA for punching a cop in the nuts! Superb :D

Haha, you're nearly as bad as me. Seeing as H-Cup weekends are normally so much fun I was seriously thinking of getting a hotel room in Dublin and going 'away' for the weekend!

BBC4 has been doing a Punk Britannia strand tonight, its been brilliant. A great documentary on Pub Rock and its links to Punk Rock, followed by a documentary on TOTP in 1976, then another brilliant documentary about TV Smith/The Adverts, and now Ian Dury and the Blockheads and Dr Feelgood in concert to be followed by an hour of Stiff Records at the Beeb!
