Still trying to remain
positive and on message but after the Georgia game there is only
one thing to say. What a heap of crap!
That's the match report over with, now back on
message. At the end of the day Ireland are still unbeaten and
if they win their next two games they will go through to a quarter
final against Scotland or Italy. From there who knows?
You can still make a difference by polishing
the lucky shamrock - you'll continue to bring luck to the sainted
Eddie and his men. If it hadn't been for all the shamrock polishing
on Saturday night Georgia would have won - look what happened
to England! As Mystic Keg said on Saturday night,
"When the stunted back-stabber is stabbed in
the back and BO'D learns that the role of captain means responsibility
on the pitch then Ireland will win the World Cup."
Until this prediction comes true you can do your
bit. If you polish the shamrock you will save the world cup.
Ireland
needs you!
Polish the shamrock, save the World Cup!
Please note we have removed the Red Hand so that Ulster are
not accused of stealing Ireland's luck when they beat the Ospreys
on Friday night.

New Friends
The FRU were delighted to make new friends from Canada, France,
Spain, Dublin, Cork and Londonderry during our trip to the south
west corner of France for Irelands opening two matches.
Stately
Homes! He's over fifty and frisky - he's
Stately Homes!
One of the things about Ulster Rugby that The
FRU really appreciate is all the good friends we have made over
the years (apart form Boys on Tour - wimps!).
This year we have been particularly pleased
to make the acquaintance of the legendary Stately Homes,
Ulster supporter, bon viveur and general man about town.
Stately has kept us enthralled over the past
few weeks with his tales of daring do and his past exploits
in the minefield of romance.
Of course, with several pints being taken at
the time, we took his tales with a pinch of salt - until now.
Imagine our delight and surprise when one of
our reporters, on being identified as being from Ulster, was
surrounded by the Stately Homes Fan Club (Biarritz)
Branch.
The Statelets last met Stately
in October 2005 and were
The Statelets wait for the day that Stately Homes returns!
keen to pump our reporter for any news.
However once the Pastis, and then the teeth, came out our reporter
made his excuses and left!

Letters to the Editor.
Dear Ed,
Just wondered if you could put in a word for your friends at
Lady Panthers RFC when they're over on tour...Get them a match
v's Eddie O'Stunted's boys after their awesome showing in the
RWC.
Then again, Eddie might not want to risk his chances of being
appointed next Lions coach...
Yours etc.,
