The Leinster guy is my cousins husband (top guy) and he was taking the piss all night about recruiting your top players for Leinster so it was hilarious when this guy kicked him up the arse! Particularly as he's quite 'handy' (ex bouncer) but he decided his pints were worth more than a fight! The guy who kicked him was just taking the mickey and probably didn't realise how hard he licked him!

At lunch yesterday everyone in my and his families were taking the piss saying it's been coming for years ... gob shite!! He's a top bloke! I keep cracking up when I think about it!


Good stuff delighted to hear the only damage was to his pride, and not the pints... ;)

Windsor... So am I! I am sure 4Dogs and the others I know will appreciate any effort.
BTW I've fallen in love with this song:


Because of



S4P: Was a Leinster supporter who got a kick in the bum. He wasn't hurt at all, was a lad messing, but as I said he was quite indignant. He gave them a piece of his mind alright and they skidaddled.

Glad to hear you enjoyed yourself. weather was good and we had a good game of rugby, couldnt ask for more.

i really really really loved the band in the clan bar after the match, made a great game alot more special. everyone was there singing along and had a smile on there face.

fingers crossed we'll meet each other in the group next year.

i hope the biarritz supporter who got kicked, was hurt and that it was only a tip of a kick.

Our supporters loved Galway and we were just so sorry about not getting down on Thursday (a 5 hour delay at Biarritz and then missing our connection meant that only 16 of us got over on Thursday night - was actually Friday morning when they got to Galway - with the rest not arriving till 3.30pm on Friday.)

Looking forward to seeing as many of you as possible next week ...

Thanks again.

Also to the guy who kicked my cousin's husband up the arse as he stood with two pints of guinness in his hand (therefore defenceless) cause he'd said he was a Leinster spotter, down to sign Mick McCarthy for Leinster ..... GOOD ONE!!!


I remember him telling me this story. He was quite indignant.

Was great to have you guys over Windsor, ye were an absolutely superb set of fans and not only did you do your club proud, but Pays Basque and rugby in general as well. There may have been quite a few newbs at the match on Friday night and the craic you and your friends delivered will hopefully have helped to convert them to life long fans.
