Return to the Planet of the "Hey Euro's its that time again" Thread.

I know where that is. There's an Irish theme pub just off the square called the Dubliner that my colleagues and I have been to a fair number of times during my visits to Oslo. Decent food and beer and occasional Irish folk music IIRC.

Yup, that's the one. Gotten myself shitfaced on numerous occasions there. :embarrassed:

Fun story. A mate of mine had a brainmelt and walked in there with a Rangers shirt on once. Luckily had the wits to get out before he got himself killed. :grin:
 
Just passed on Prince tickets at the Roundhouse. Managed to get 4 in my basket but couldn't get hold of anyone to confirm they wanted them and they're £85 quid a pop. They're asking for photo id with the tickets to get in so would have been hard to shift and didn't want to get stuck with them. Fuck, could probably have sold them at the door to people who could have just walked in with me. I bet it'll be epic :(

Damn, that's a shame
 
The interview on Friday was probably the worst interview I've ever done. I thought I'd made it fairly clear in the other thread that I'd totally fucked it up?

Anyways I have been off reasonably shitfaced since. :embarrassed:

If you think your man had a lucky escape Dexter I'll trump that with one I heard a while ago.

There's a local dude called Tam who is by all intents one of the world's great drunks. He's a very nice bloke (he once gave me a tenner to go and buy the Legion of Doom wrestling figures) :thu: but one of those shambolic types that amazes you how he managed to reach the age of retirement.

Tam is a major loyalist, pretty sure he was into all sorts in Ulster during the height of the troubles.

As a result his arms are covered in UDA tattoos.

Tam is a hefty chap and likes to wear vests in the Summer as his size makes him a bit of a sweaty bastard.

After one of his full on benders he found himself being chucked out of a taxi in the middle of the Gallowgate, pretty much the most hardcore Republican / Celtic part of Glasgow.

Luckilly for Tam his brother in law is a taxi driver but being the days before mobile phones Tam realised that he needed to find a payphone, if he could swing a drink into the act then all the better.

He stoated into Baird's bar (which is literally world famous as a Celtic pub and was shut down not too long ago due to Republican / IRA links)

This is one of those places where everyone turns to see who walks in and as soon as they saw Tam (UDA tattoos on full show) the barman shouted: "Have you not got the wrong pub mate?"

To which Tam, in the way only one of those archetypal booze maniacs could do, shouted back "That depends pal, do you sell lager?"

The barman split his sides, phoned Tam's brother in law (hence why we know the story) and told him he could have a pint then he better get the fuck out before he was lynched from the nearest lamp post :grin:

:facepalm:
 
Morning all :Wave:

On the subject of bigotry: I am still disgusted with my cowardice in refusing to have a drink with, and walking away from, rather than confronting the team of sore losers who we trounced on Sunday who were jabbering on amongst themselves about how we were "losing our club", as we have had an influx of (mostly) players with South Asian ancestry. I'd rather 'lose my club' to our new members than to a bunch of fucking racists.
 
It doesn't sound too bad. I think they got the message anyway that they should maybe have shut their mouths.

If you feel really bad about it, consider writing a letter. Then they'll know how you feel.

Or torch their club house or whatever its called.
 
:grin: I joked to the guys at our club that when we go to play these lot at their ground I might turn up in shalwar kameez.
