1. Excuse for a pint

2. Great day for the parish

3. Sort of like a Reverse Thierry.

4. How did ireland win if he caught the snitch?

5. Snitches get ~~st~~witches

6. I choose to think he saw the writing on the wall and went “screw this, I’m ending it now while the scoreboard looks a bit respectable” while cursing out his shite teammates

7. Ireland’s exclusion from the Quittich World Cup PS2 game is one of the nations great betrayal

8. Ah fuck off.

9. Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

   The problem with Bulgaria is they always try to walk it in.

10. I always thought the snitch was such a cop out for tension in the books. Like just have it all ride on a single player, Harry, in a head to head.

11. My irish partner pointed out that in the hp universe there’s a ministry dept of magical games and sports Comprising the quidditch teams of great Britain and Ireland

    In jk rowlings mind ireland is still colonized

12. Krum should have been kicked off the team immediately for this. Gave up on a 2 score game in a world cup final. 0 respect for his teammates
