  1. I don't know why because there is no logic to it but I get the feeling that Scotland will beat England tomorrow. I have this vision of English ill discipline returning and they will also be over confident after last week and the Scots will feel they have something to prove in the final game especially as it is against the Auld Enemy.

    As I said, no logic there, just a gut feeling

    Crikey, next time you get a feeling let me know and I'll be sure to back the other side if this is anything to go on.

  2. The best player in the world is Richie McCaw, of that there is no doubt, and I am no fan of the AB's or Canterbury, Wales are a little over average, and the minute they face a slightly inform team they crumble.

    Now I'm not saying England are better, no in the slightest, but they will be, England are re-grouping and learning all the time, to demolish France like that means the talent is there, it's just bringing the discipline and teamwork together.

    I'm still wondering who this Ingerland rugby team are?

  3. Nope didn't say that Gringo, there is a long way to go, a long way, and I do think if England had played with the discipline the had against france they would have beat the taffies, no doubt and the Irish...

    It'll come, it's a time for rebuilding. And I don't see anyone calling "Ingerland" World Beaters, whoever "Ingerland" are, isn't that a football team?

  4. Well, looking at Englands performance against France, I wager a replay between England and Wales would be a totally different result..

    England being runners up in the last world cup, were did Wales finish?

    Wales are OK, but not as good as you make out, all teams are beatable, and England especially are going through a period of rebuilding.. stronger and stronger every match.

    Oh and by the big 3 nations you mean NZ, SA and England?

  5. But I have a feeling the Argies will join the Southern Hemisphere's Tri-Nations, it kinda makes more sense, being in the Southern Hemisphere and all that.

    It's a possibility. But to be honest, I think the Argies know hand on heart that they'll get trounced royaly most years, just like the northern teams do, but they will fancy their chances at a more steady improvement in a 7 nations.

    Same scenario as Italy though, and I don't think the Argies are as bad as you think, they play some very good rugby.

  6. So were these 'scabs' deserving of their fate then, your use of language suggest you might think so. Was it justified to murder men going to work to feed their families then or no?
    Of course it's not justifiable, and as mentioned above you can't tar a whole industry because of the actions of two.

    These people weren't your everyday murderers (not that I know what everyday murderers look like) and if the strike hadn't happened would probably have lived their lives without blood on their hands.

    They were desparate, their lives and livelihoods being quashed at the whim iof a mad woman in london. They were wrong, undoubtedly - but when people are driven to such actions you need to question the underlying cause.

    This wasn't simply a fight over some coal pits. This was the witch vs the workers. Unfortunately the witch won thanks to her supplicant MPs who passed the legislation and the booted mob she was able to hire from the police force.

    Couldn't disagree with that more..

  7. Scargill and the Unions were to blame, scumbag strikers prevent good, honest grafters from working under threat of violence, total scum, Thatcher got it completely right.

    Socialist scum holdig the country to ransom..

  8. Eh, what have Everton done to upset you now rogers?

    Thought it was Liverpool and Spurs that had your ire.

    I don't hate Everton at all, they are just too close for comfort, and it's Mr Rogers to you.

  9. Snowy, the thing is the argument for losing business is used in every attempt to tighten up regulation

    Min wage - would lose jobs to toher cheaper countries

    tighter regs - lose business to NYSE

    it is the typical free market argument as you know,for the free market to work it needs somehwere to be cheaper and less deregulated

    yes we all wanted that because we wanted £2 pairs of kids jeans from ASda, eh guess what they are produced in far east sweat shops

    we wnate all the benefits of a free market and not the negative, take house prices for example

    now at least we have a chance to redress that, but we won;t because as soon as a new reg is published we will hear screams from business on how it will cost them money

    Seriously, I am so glad you're not chancellor with opinions of that nature.
