"Roarke"

Joseph Mazello. Has been in some really good things over the years. The Social Network. The Pacific. Bohemian Rhapsody.

Quote from: Mourne Red on Today at 08:22:57 PMIdiotic from Digne.. The theatrics of the team conceding the penalty has annoyed me a lot this Tournament

It was very like what they were (justifiably) up in arms over Paraguay's behaviour against them.

That'll not help Lamine's dodgy hamstring.

Live I thought surely he can't have given away a penalty and then on the replay couldn't believe how badly he just booted him!  ;D

That was an atrocious tackle from Olise.

Didn't realise Bruce Buffer was doing team introductions  ;D

Really harsh on him. Remco had been dropped and ends up taking 12 seconds on him in the last couple of hundred yards, plus the bonus. He'll still go backwards in the high mountains though.

Del Toro losing a chunk of time was a surprise. Maybe a little chink of light for other teams.

Christ Carla never ceases to amaze. She spent last Friday in a courtroom as a solitary Orangeman challenged the PC's Drumcree ruling?! Did she not see the photo of this year's protest of approximately five lads? What a dedicated public servant she is!

Would be very interested to hear exactly what it is she wants in the curriculum.

I'd be very surprised if it's a blockage tbh, as it feeds front and rear windscreen as well as headlights but everything is worth a try I guess.

I can access it with the usual DIY tools and the bog standard jack but fitting a whole new pump is a pain the arse if it's just a fuse that I can't figure out  ;D

EDIT: Hmmm, Gemini suggesting I've made a balls of things and it's two different pumps, one for the wipers and one for the headlights.

Pretty sure no pump noise but hard to tell because it takes a second or two to kick in and then I have the wipers scraping over dry windows. Have managed to get a look at it and it "looks" ok, no signs of blockage around the pump or anything in terms of gunk. It's getting and rear washer and fact I can't find dedicated fuse is annoying me.

2020 Skoda Karoq wiper fluid not coming out of either front or rear wipers. Reservoir is full and no obvious blockage or leaks. Wiper fluid pump doesn't have a dedicated fuse and no other electrical problems. Pump most likely knackered?

He's talking about Davy Byrne.

He always has been and the fact that he's not particularly interested in hanging around to cling to the chance of maybe matching the lads with 9 AIs says a lot about him too.

Can't think of so much as a whiff of controversy about him. Nothing. Just seemed to keep quiet and get on with it. Given he came from a club that wasn't founded until five years after he was born, his has been a truly remarkable career.

The only shame is that we didn't get to see the hurler he could have been!

How would non award of Dublin goal have been changed? As has been said many times, the replays DO NOT show the ball crossing the line.

Do we want referees to look at a replay and go "ah yeah, sure this is probably what happened, I'll change my mind"?

It's simple. From open play, you can't already be in the square when the ball is kicked. Once it's played, you can stand wherever the hell you want and play the ball.
