    I was joking because our midfield is ****, perhaps some of you lot should be on the short bus.

    Oh right, it is just Minibuses have a wide variety of uses:

    - In a public transport role, they can be used as fixed route transit buses, airport, flexible demand responsive transport vehicles, share taxis or large taxicabs. Accessible minibuses can also be used for paratransit type services, by local authorities, transit operators, hospitals or charities.
    - Private uses of minibuses can include corporate transport, charter buses, tour buses. Schools, sports clubs, community groups and charities may also use minibuses for private transport. Individual owners may use reduced seating minibuses as cheap recreational vehicles.

    So I didn't automatically make the connection between the minibus and people with learning disabilities. In retrospect, it required lateral thinking that proved beyond my intellect

    So we've gone from midfielders to minibuses to mentally handicapped people to Molly Malone?

    A 'tart cart' sounds more interesting.

    It's a rather tasteless analogy if you ask me.

    Perhaps this is why most Americans just stick to fart jokes. Surely then I should do something with Cockles and Mussels.

    You're probably right but Anthony might not agree!

    Just on the ticket request, there was a genuine estonian on ybig last week and apparently they're only taking up 300/400 tickets, so there will be plenty of spares.
    On other thing to consider... a few fellas have been ringing the ticket office, chancing the arm, and being offered tickets. It's worth a shot
    Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!

    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.

    I like high energy football. A little bit rock and roll. Many finishes instead of waiting for the perfect one.

    Right lads back to the match, sure isn't this what the thread is about!?

    I have watched a load of highlights of Estonia on the net and am not in least bit concerned by them.
    They were very poor against ukraine at home last month losing 0-2. Their defense was dodgy and conceded two soft goals.

    I reckon they will field this team against us on friday. I have included their clubs and positions in that countries top division.

    Pareiko (Wisla Krakow - Poland 6th) - Duff scored aginst him last week in the europa cup.

    Stepanov (Gomel - Bulgaria Not in top division)
    Piiroja (Vitesse - Holland 4th)
    Kruglov (Rostov - Russia 10th)
    Jaager (Aalesund - Norway 9th)

    Puri (Papa - Hungary 10th)
    Kink (Gyor - Hungary 2nd)
    Vassijev (Amkar - Russia 12th)
    Klavan (Az Alkmaar - Holland 1st)

    Saag (Silkeborg - Denmark 8th)
    Ahjupera (Gyor - Hungary 2nd)

    They have a couple of decent players in Klavan and Vassijev. But I really believe we will have too much for them over both legs.

    Confident of 1-0 win away and 2-1 at home.

    Never eat yellow snow!!

    Greetings from Estonia, lads.

    Never mind the intrusion to your backyard. I've just been reading this thread for some time now and enjoyed it. I'll leave when our clash is over. Anyway, if you have any questions about our team or anything related to Estonia, you can post em' and I will try to answer (objectively!).

    Glad we got Ireland. A nice set of fans you have! Also, your team is considered very playable by estonians: http://waterfordwhispersnews.com/201...2012-play-off/

    Plus, I suggest you not to get overwhelmed about the friendly between Estonia and Ukraine. That wasn't our best squad out there and all the player's minds where on the Slovenia-Serbia game held on the same evening two hours later that would decide our fate in the qualifying group. Vassiljev couldn't even convert a penalty because of that as he said after the match. That game was forgotten before it started.

    Little something from our forums:


    Cheers!

  27. Thanks From:
