Well DM , with an attitude that "it's likely to be a big defeat" I am wondering if you are from Laois?  The natives here are friendly and your cash will be safe. That said, they might be a bit passed off around 6 pm when they find a surprise in store.

Always had a soft spot for Laois. Some ding dong battles with them in the 00s . Reckon one of the Leinster Finals played which I think we won by a point or two was one of the most enjoyable games I was ever at.
Watched an U21 final in Thurles some years ago when Laois imo threw away  an AI v Cork. Remember it because I actually was genuinely peeved that they lost.

Having said that in long list of counties that don't like us they probably are at the head of the queue.

Ye lost an All-Ireland Final to Cork as well because ye left Conal Keaney on the bench and watched the game disappear
before your eyes when he should have been brought on.  But all that was then and this is now.  I think once the auto-feeders are checked and working in the cattle sheds and we have a full head count on the bus our lads will come up and give this a lash. Look at it this way, ye are probably playing the third best county in the country on Sunday, while at the same time if we did win we would not be going out saying we will win the next five All-Ireland's in a row. Also, Laois and Dub's are able to stir a nice bit of slagging between each other and I like that, except when ye start pointing at the scoreboard.

Nothing has changed, nordies still rule and a thread about next Sunday's game between Laois and Dublin is turned into a debate about Dublin and fooking Derry about half a century ago.  Can someone tell me why Dublin are odds on to win by about 40 points or why I am hearing "if we get out with less than a 12 point loss it will be a good result??

Well be the holy smoke ?  Is there any point in Laois turning up at all? The current poster boys, albeit in possession of Sam because Mayo got the yips when it was handed to them on a plate, have not alone this game won but this years All-Ireland the way ye are chattering on here. Wait 'till ye see the start to this game and the Dubs defense like an oul wan at a Lidle check out trying to keep up with the checkout operator because once the first two go over and Dub's can't catch up panic will set in.

For the last ten years I've been listening to "Laois are too light" (or too fond of the beer) and if we put out an Under 7 team in the Feile some poor child would be used to take a swipe at Colm Parkinson or Billy Sheehan. Well it's foooking pay back time and even if we put out our second team (Parnell's) you can be guaranteed a better fight than some of the has been counties that stretches meaning of delusion beyond all bounds, particularly Tyrone, Donegal, Derry, well any Ulster team really. 

The other thing is this bullshit about us being a small county with high emigration. For fooks sake, we are not in the middle of a famine or going around in our bare feet so spare the sympathy, we have as good a team as most and better than a lot and what's more we are unlikely to end up playing with thirteen players because our goalkeeper goes out and gives somone a fung up the hole for no reason at all or one of our forwards loses the plot over the slightest dig. 

Paddy Power should give us the same odds in football as has been given to our hurlers to win the Leinster, 100/1 and maybe Peter McKenna should have arrangements made for Croke Park staff to have little food parcels as handouts when our poor destitute supporters arrive on Sunday.

Just saw this now and any suggestion to move Laois into Munster will be resisted with the same ferocity if you tried to take a pram from a Moore Street trader. Our current hurling is the best thing to come out of Laois since Har Ramsbottom & The Escorts Showband got their first gig in Barry's hotel. Cannon fodder for Cork and Tipp ? Not gonna happen. What they should do is move just one county from Leinster into Ulster - Dublin. Cork should be barred altogether for throwing yesterday's game.

I think the young lad on the left is a young O'Driscoll

I doubt it but if there is anyone on here going to Croke Park tomorrow for the All-Ireland Intermediate and Junior Finals I have four Premium Level tickets here that I can email you.

Have not been here for a while but in the tradition of us Gaels I just though I'd look out for you and Hardy in case ye were going to Birmingham anytime soon.

Garth Brooks lives in that hut over the Nally.

I got one of these tables for €50 at Auction Xchange on Sandyford.
Great for getting from Ballyknockan to Blessington across the lake if the cops are about.

I know a company that were PUT INTO receivership for a very small amount of money because they could not pay a VAT return. The reason they could not pay the VAT return was because they were owed almost double the amount from a state department for over two months previous. The reason they could not get paid from the state was because they did not have a tax clearance certificate. The reason they did not have a tax clearance certificate was because they owed vat and round and round......

Eventually, with the loss of seven jobs along came the liquidator and changed the locks, sold off all the stock and equipment. The owner of the company was effectively bankrupt and a liquidation went ahead. To add to his mental stress, about three years later he received a bill from the liquidator for the cost of his services. His house is worth about €360,000 and guess what the amount of bill was? €180,000.

And the liquidator was???

Good man Dinny, fair balls to you, no long winded "I think we should start a thread about ...." just go and do it like you have done. Deffo for a sticky and long may it last and many may it help.

Return trips to the moon are all booked out by Tyronies, it's the only place they have a chance of getting silver/

The missus bought a Paperback,
down Shepton Mallet way,
I had a look inside her bag;
... T'was "Fifty Shades of Grey".
Well I just left her to it,
And at ten I went to bed.
An hour later she appeared;
The sight filled me with dread...
In her left she held a rope;
And in her right a whip!
She threw them down upon the floor,
And then began to strip.
Well fifty years or so ago;
I might have had a peek;
But Mabel hasn't weathered well;
She's eighty four next week!!
Watching Mabel bump and grind;
Could not have been much grimmer.
And things then went from bad to worse;
She toppled off her Zimmer!
She struggled back upon her feet;
A couple minutes later;
She put her teeth back in and said
I am a dominater !!
Now if you knew our Mabel,
You'd see just why I spluttered,
I'd spent two months in traction
For the last complaint I'd uttered.
She stood there nude and naked
Bent forward just a bit
I went to hold her, sensual like
and stood on her left tit!
Mabel screamed, her teeth shot out;
My god what had I done!?
She moaned and groaned then shouted out:
"Step on the other one"!!
Well readers, I can't tell no more;
About what occurred that day.
Suffice to say my jet black hair,
Turned Fifty Shades of Grey !
