pint bottle and pint glass of ice is great.erdinger beats it


agreed. :cool: ,roll on finishing time

[Schumi]

definition of beverage - "noun: any liquid suitable for drinking"

So I would. :D
Hmm, not sure that I would :D

[Maz]

On a warm day, perhaps even after a game of 5-a-side, your only man is a pint of mi-wadi orange with ice. Down the first half, sip the rest.

Agreed but would prefer the old orange and pineapple mi-wadi myself!

[sorbothegreek]

I think it 's just got something over the more aristocratic Robinsons which always seems to leave me more thirsty after drinking it than before.

its a gimmick to use so that you drink more of it to cure the "thirst" the previous glass has left you with....before you realise it your bottle of robinsons, mi-wadi etc is gone and you're off to buy another one.

Same as those restaurants that put loadsa salty stuff on food that makes you thirsty!

or those "pub crisps" which are pickled with salt which you see in the bars

(but they're lovely with a nice cold pint of bud) :cool:

Bulmers' proper name is actually Magners and it is called Bulmers here because they also have a Bulmers Cider in the north & UK made by someone else and it is complete ****.They also have Bulmers in Australia and it is a bit closer to our Bulmers and is known as Bulmers Red Cider but you just can't beat the original which is made by Showerings i think.

[fosterdollar]

can't get magners here - so it's bulmers. And it's pish no matter what name you give it anyway

[Pauro 76]

Jeez working in a pub in the UK can confusing. People give me strange looks when someone asks what cider we have in the pub, i say Bulmers instead of Magners.... and when people ask for a packet of cheese and onion Walkers crisps, often find myself giving them the green packet. (Salt and Vinegar!) weird country....

[Wiseguy]

Yeah tell me about it.I lived in Southgate (N14) for 8 months and worked in a pub called The Rising Sun and they drank some weird sh1t.I had the pleasure of seeing a guy getting stabbed to death outside Holloway tube station.Frightened the bejesus out of me.It's a great city if your young free and single though.

[fosterdollar]

...and not getting stabbed to death

dont like walkers.taste crap.and the colors on the packets are all wrong. red is C&O, blue is S&V etc.theyre proper colors.
for anyone confused bout bulmers/magners the bulmers.ie website explicates in detail

How can anyone be confused? It's sold as Bulmers only here. That's all you need to know. And that sometimes if you see Magners on tap then it's the same as Bulmers. Jees it's only two names. Hardly fookin rocket science.

Yeah but, in the UK every can of cider seems to be made by Bulmers, but they all taste like shít. Can be confusing, if you're a bit píssed on your 5 litre Boddingtons (RIP - Fook interbrew) keg thingy :D

Tempting as it is to say that i searched through the thread and counted the numbers of posts i have to admit that clicking the number of replies on the thread list gives you a breakdown of the posters on each thread

never knew that :cool:

[monkey magic]

cheers! for what it was worth any other way we can keep it goin??

[fosterdollar]

...wwwooops sorry, forgotten what i was going to say.

[monkey magic]

ive been thinking, what if we abandon all new threads on the ltfc board and just discuss the issues here?

sure, we'd all look like a bunch of illiterate, technically inept plebs, but sure its a small sacrifice...

... and besides, we should be proud of our longford heritage... :D

[the 12 th man]

2 of the 4 booked last night (o conner & ferguson- (jasus ref what game were you watching)) :(

[Maz]

No way did Barry foul for that free kick...........terrible decision!

[Sonic]

:eek: :eek: :o The refs fault again SURPRISE SURPRISE

[Maz]

Never said it was the refs fault, if you bothered to read posts elsewhere about the game but that free kick wasnt a free kick but its part of football we'll get over it!!

[De Town]

Lads, the Hattrick thread is only 3 posts behind this thread after I will have posted this :(

[the 12 th man]

:eek: :eek: :o The refs fault again SURPRISE SURPRISE

it was a ridiculous decision.thats all.
these yellow cards add up and end up comming back to bite yer arse later in the season :(

[Sonic]

but really what is your point.both team have the same officials.we know they are crap but start blaming the team not the officials.its every single gme you guys go on about the refs poor decisions.You think being an el fan you wud be used to their ineptness by now.Every game i expect these tools to make a mistake or 10 but they are equally as bad for both teams

do you honestly think that anyone on here is blaming the officials for our performances ??. unless i'm mistaken thats what your saying.

it was simply pointed out that there was a bad call on a booking on barry ferguson and thats about the strength of it.

the players and management are responsible for our play, nobody else.

[Sonic]

True, we just don't have the strikers !

Oh and who signed 3 of our 5 strikers oh YES Matthews!!!
It all boils down to him simple as.

[Maz]

Pointless arguin with him, No matter what point you make its turned on matthews......hilarious and very repetitive!!

[Sonic]

I am right though.I listen to valid arguements but Matthews a good manager you guys are aving a laugh. :D :D :D

[Maz]

No you dont listen at all......We posted about a free kick......and you turn it around as per usual!

[Bosco]

Sonic,answer this.If matthews was sacked tomorow,who would you get to replace him?Its easy to say "oh,something needs to be done,sack matthews" but I havnt heard anyone come up with a good replacement and dont even think about saying pat dolan,hes a good manager but he bankrupts every club he goes to and thats the last thing that needs to happen to ltfc after all the hard work that has been done.I am not for matthews being sacked or against it but I know that something needs to change and if Jim Hanley decides that alan has to go and that he can bring in a suitable replacement then I will support that.But the fact is that if matthews goes,the likelyhood is that we will be taking a chance on whoever replaces him.There just isnt that many good managers in this country.Look at Bohs,they sacked Kenny last season because results werent going there way,now they are relegation candidates while kenny is challenging shels at the top with derry.Bohs are being laughed at for letting kenny go and I dont want to be in their position next year.There is noway you can say that matthews isnt a good manager.When he took over all we wanted was to stay up,it was the season after ballybofey and our team had been taken apart with the likes of stewie and mcnally leaving.He took over,built a whole new team,brought us to 4 cup finals,winning 4 of them,brought us to europe twice and gave us our highest league position

[Maz]

Agree but the answer will be turned around again.....

oh look the 900th post on the thread!

[Finny]

Vinny For Player manager you know you all agree
