[1632]

f**k ME IS ANYONE LISTENING TO THE b**tard BEING INTERVIEWED OUTSIDE THE ENGLISH PARLIAMENT?  SOME LEGAL REPRESENTATIVE OF THE BRITS....OH DEAR GOD, THE ENGLISH ARMY ARE REPRESENTED BY THE SCUM OF THE LEGAL SYSTEM.  HIS NAME IS STEPHEN POLLARD AND IT'LL  BE A WHILE BEFORE HE HOLIDAYS IN IRELAND, I'D SAY.

What was he saying?

BBC coverage

1632 Stephen Pollard, a solicitor representing the soldiers' who appeared before the Saville Inquiry tells BBC defence correspondent Jonathan Beale that Lord Saville does not have justification for his findings and accuses him of cherry-picking the evidence. He says that Lord Saville's conclusions are not sustained by proper analysis of the evidence. "There is just as much evidence for the opposite conclusion," he says.

Dec what's the last day these tips have to be in, want to hold off a few days until I see as many 1st round games as possible.

The deadline is when the first game starts, South Africa v Uruguay at 7:30 on Wednesday. Everyone will have played their first game by then.

Standings half way through the first set of games.

Ok, kickoff in a couple of minutes, I will close entries now. I will put up the fixtures for the second set of games in the next day or so.

Still time to get an entry in if you are interested.

under the bar, you are missing a result between Netherlands and Slovakia there should be 2 results you list 1 draw

Tony Baloney, you have 2 draws between Greece and England, there is only one game

RGUO8, you have 22 results for 16 games

[dec]

World Cup tips competition

Scoring system
Group games 1 point for correct result (Correct result means name the winner or 'Draw')
2nd round 2 points
QF 4 points
SF 8 points
Final 16 points

Format: username and then the results of each game seperated by commas, country name or 'Draw'.

Example
dec,Draw,France,Draw,Argentina,England,Slovenia,Serbia,Germany,Netherlands,Draw,Italy,Slovakia,Ivory Coast,Brazil,Chile,Spain

Note the username as the first thing on the line. It makes it easier for me to handle the results in a spreadsheet.

Hardy you would be lieing if you were to be disregarding it as a taboo. We all know the history, and clearly there is strong foundational element of nationalism within the Cumann Luthchleas Gael.

There was never sectarianism. Nationalism ≠ catholicism.

Not overtly, but there is sometimes the assumption that everyone involved with a club is Catholic, for example whenever club celebrations or a pitch opening include a celebration of mass.

How would people know individual members were "protestants", anyway? I don't think anybody gets asked, so labelling somebody as "protestant" can only be an assumption.

Knowing whether someone is a prod or a taig is the national sport of the six counties.

New Giants/Jets stadium gets the Super Bowl in 2014.
