Not staged, not sure why anyone would think that, man just lost the head. Could went up had a quite word with him there and then or after it. Think he tainted his Oscar, its hardly been mentioned. Good Job Frankie Boyle (The Bollacks) ever host the oscars, he lite everybody up.

Yeah,  totally tainted  ::)

There was a couple on the radio as I was driving home who suffer with the same condition... for a woman to suffer losing her hair it's a big thing, not just the physical but how you cope with it mentally is what they weee saying, snide comments and slagging was common practice.

They both condemned the slap but had mixed emotions about it. The best thing he should have done had he not cracked up was to call him out when he had the chance, heat of the moment stuff the Armagh game had worse going on.

Armagh must have been playing themselves.   ::)  Smith will be worried about losing the oscar, probably pulling his hair out.

Smith initially laughed at the GI Jane 2 remark, then looked over at the wife and she'd a face like thunder. Smith was probably as pissed off with his own initial reaction and needed to save face with the wife.

Rocks "joke" was probably in the ha-penny place when you think of what Gervais has said in the past.

The girls that had this condition who were talking on the radio said themselves that they embarrassingly would have laughed at the crass comments made at them to not make a scene and always regretted afterwards, so they were not surprised with how he initially reacted and then reacted.

Either way he has said sorry to Rock, his Oscar is pride and place in his downstairs toilet
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

I would say the 10% automatic add-on is very unusual for a hotel.

However, not overly surprised by the price for the scone and a cuppa. This is a 5 star hotel, you're paying for the ambience, location, decor, etc, etc. And probably to brag to your pals "Oh I had afternoon tea in the new Cashel Palace...". I'm sure it's not much more expensive, if at all, than Adare Manor, Westbury, etc. Plus you would receive a menu with prices before you order. So my conclusion is that the person who chose to go there, chose to order, and afterwards chose to complain on social media, is a knob.

Exactly. It amazes me the people that do this, they rock up to these places complaining the prices are not the same as the Circle K down the road and yet knew this prior to going.

It's their "look at me" post to show they were there there but trying not to look as obvious as the "checked in at etc etc".

Pretty amazing statement from Staines Town FC in England...

QuoteStaines Town Football Club (STFC) regrets to announce that pursuant to third party breaches of Section 54 of The Modern Slavery Act 2015 and other information that has come to light, we are forced to temporarily suspend all primary operations including but not limited to competitive fixtures, until a thorough investigation into the practices of Downing LLP has been concluded by the relevant authorities.

In the first instance, STFC has an obligation under The Modern Slavery Act 2015 to ensure that our business and supply chains are free from human trafficking and slavery. Our actions, as a full member of The English Football Association (The FA), are compliant and fully concur with The FA statement on Slavery and Human Trafficking (See attached below). This statement and the adherence to The Modern Slavery Act 2015, has also been adopted by every other National Football Association within the United Kingdom and its major member clubs.

Of particular interest to those involved at all levels of football, both within the UK and globally, it has also come to our attention through both substantive and vast evidence from various sources, that Downing LLP, who control and fund the operation of our Landlord, The Thames Club, may be involved through its other holdings in the financing of large scale bribery and corruption. This includes the current funding of a Swiss Bank with international operations that has been found guilty in the United States Federal Court of conspiring to launder over $36 million USD in bribes to officials within the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) and other football federations.  These bribes were in furtherance of a scheme in which sports marketing companies bribed football officials in exchange for broadcasting rights to football matches...

Follow the link above, it gives the full statement. It reads to me that they believe Downing LLP are trying to run the club into the ground so they can develop the ground. So Staines have tried to purchase land elsewhere (wheatsheaf park) and setup a new club which has been blocked. It looks like they are trying to gain assistance in this new club setup and using the slavery to grab attention
That's how I read it anyway

QuoteSTFC believes that the strategy of Downing LLP, (who seem to have proven via its investment holdings in a business that was found guilty of the bribery and corruption of FIFA officials, that they have no regard whatsoever for a community football club or for the greater good of football), is to execute the purposeful and controlled decline of STFC and thus realise the land value at Wheatsheaf Park through development. We have spent vast amounts of our own external capital, with almost no operating income at the Club, to secure the future of STFC through the purchase of the freehold at Wheatsheaf Park, which has thus far been blocked at every turn.



We are also obligated to comply with the legislative position within the provisions and stipulations of Section 54 of The Modern Slavery Act 2015 and as a result, we must reiterate, that until the necessary government and institutional investigations have proven beyond reasonable doubt that Downing LLP is not funding modern slavery, and that STFC, its business and supply chains, are free from human trafficking and slavery, we must temporarily suspend our primary operations until the conclusion of this process, which we expect to be treated as a matter of absolute urgency.
Hasta la victoria siempre

Spotlight last night about a sham/scam fertility and wellbeing centre in the Lisburn Road.

Genuinely unbelievable stuff.

Exploiting desperate couples who are in a horrible situation. Didn't see it all but am I right in saying she's not even a doctor?
