I suggested white pinestripes like we had in the 80's and some other member came up with this. I think its a winner.

Good win. Probably didn't deserve it either but we defended well and Ireland didn't take their chances. First time we have had back to back 6 Nations wins since 2001. Was some atmosphere the last 20 mins. First time I have saw us beat Ireland so thats good. Need a win against Wales in two weeks.

England are looking good for the Slam. Will be a hard game against the Welsh in the last game though. Got a ticket for todays game. Reckon we can beat the Irish by a couple of tries. They have about 10 players out and a rookie at 10 that can be bullied. Hopefully. Scotland to win by 12 points.

Hagler vs Hearns - The War

Did we ever get to see their "dossier" of referee bias against them that they said they had and threatened to show it? Mind that, that was a laugh.

Got a ticket for tomorrow and managed to get into some hospitality thing before and after the game. Free booze and food. Can't complain. I think we will struggle tomorrow. Italy have done this in the past, won a game but the problem is they don't back it up with another result. I think that might change tomorrow. Will be a tough yin. I will go for Scotland/Italy draw, Ireland win and a France win.

I just watched How The Calcutta Cup Was Won 1990. Utterly pumped for this and the Rangers game now. Believe!

I have a tie thats gold with blue and black diamonds/squarea on it. Label says on it "Exclusively designed for Rangers. Made in Italy" with a red, white and blue stripe. It was my grandads who was a big fan and my gran gave it to me after he died. It also came in a box with the Rangers crest on it. No idea where my grandad got it. Must be a good few years old, maybe from the 90's - early 00's. Still in great condition as I have only wore it a few times.

Betting on there being a red card in this game. Head is saying a draw, heart is saying a 2-0 win for us.

Stuck a Scotland and Rangers double on for tomorrow. 40/1. Weird that the French have left out Parra.

I will guess David Villa to Man City...

Great PR in all fairness. I've always liked him. Model pro.

New BMW advert for England out today. This is fucking awful. Terribly cringeworthy. Just fires me up even more for Saturday!

Was on his twitter before he quit cause he was gettibg pelters haha. Some quote. I wid use it if I didn't have tattoos.

De Luca is awful. Cost us games quite a few times. Main one was England in the World Cup in 2011. Also last year in Cardiff with his sin bin. More bad than good. Loved this from him though. Asked recently why he did not sport any tattoos on his body, De Luca replied: “Because you don’t put a bumper sticker on a Ferrari.”

I will stick my neck out and say there won't be a Grand Slam at all this year. Ireland have the best draw on paper. Wales vs Ireland is a huge first game for them both. Wales lose then they have 3 away games in a row? Heads will go down if that happens.

So you are saying Wales vs England, last day of the fixtures, both will be chasing the Grand Slam and England will win it? In Cardiff? Off yer rocker. England will finish 3rd or 4th.

Agreed. I will always love football more than rugby. I like them for different reasons and I always think both games could learn from each other in ways.

Can get a pint at games. Nowhere near as much diving and rolling around the ground that footballers do. Refs are more respected. Touchline try review system in place. Harder players.

Rugby is better than football in quite a few ways.

Starts on Saturday! We play England away first. Then we are at home to Italy, Ireland then Wales. Finish up with a jaunt to France. Got tickets for the Italy and Ireland games. Our team against England 15 Stuart Hogg (Glasgow Warriors) 10 caps, 1 try, 5 points 14 Sean Maitland (Glasgow Warriors) uncapped 13 Sean Lamont (Glasgow Warriors) 71 caps, 8 tries, 40 points 12 Matt Scott (Edinburgh Rugby) 7 caps 11 Tim Visser (Edinburgh Rugby) 5 caps, 4 tries, 20 points 10 Ruaridh Jackson (Glasgow Warriors) 15 caps, 2 conversions, 2 penalties, 2 drop-goals, 16 points 9 Greig Laidlaw (Edinburgh Rugby) vice-captain 13 caps, 2 tries, 11 conversions and 22 penalties, 98 points 1 Ryan Grant (Glasgow Warriors) vice-captain, 5 caps 2 Dougie Hall (Glasgow Warriors) 39 caps, 1 try, 5 points 3 Euan Murray (Worcester Warriors) 49 caps, 2 tries, 10 points 4 Richie Gray (Sale Sharks) 27 caps, 1 try, 5 points 5 Jim Hamilton (Gloucester Rugby) 41 caps, 1 try, 5 points 6 Alasdair Strokosch (Perpignan) 30 caps, 1 try, 5 points 7 Kelly Brown (Saracens) captain, 52 caps, 4 tries, 20 points 8 Johnnie Beattie (Montpellier) 16 caps, 3 tries, 15 points Substitutes: 16 Ross Ford (Edinburgh Rugby) 63 caps, 2 tries, 10 points 17 Moray Low (Glasgow Warriors) 15 caps 18 Geoff Cross (Edinburgh Rugby) 17 caps, 1 try, 5 points 19 Alastair Kellock (Glasgow Warriors) 47 caps, 1 try, 5 points 20 David Denton (Edinburgh Rugby) 9 caps 21 Henry Pyrgos (Glasgow Warriors) 3 caps, 1 try, 5 points 22 Duncan Weir (Glasgow Warriors) 2 caps, 1 conversion, 2 points 23 Max Evans (Castres) 32 caps, 3 tries, 15 points We have a decent team on paper. Hopefully having Visser in there helps with our try scoring. Really need Jackson and Weir to be on form though. So glad De Luca is missing the full thing! So shite he is. Predictions? France or Ireland to win. Scotland to finish 4/5th.

There was a guy on Talksport last night suggesting that Hazard should have "tickled the ball off him". Haha. I was pishin myself at the image of that.

I still can't get my head around this. A 17 year old ball boy. Whit is that all about? An absolute riddie. Wid be like having a paper round when yer 25.

I always liked the cuckoo clock we got from some Dutch club.
