  1. Cracking post that .....i think the level of non league footie probably across the country is higher than its ever been and part of that is simply that theres more money floating around than before even at that level.....yes theres still clubs struggling to survive but well run non league clubs these days are flourishing and naturally the players see the benefits of that....lads who were maybe on the fringes of pro football are happy to drop down a level as many of them are still making a living from the game,where in days gone by they would of most likely fallen away and gone to work in a war
  2. Comparing era's in sport is always a difficult thing to do theres just so many if's and but's to consider....i always like to think that the great sportsmen of any era could still do their thing talent wise in the modern era but attitude wise i doubt someone like George Best would even have made it as a pro in todays times.....even the likes of Tony Adams,Merson etc just wouldnt get away with carrying an addiction i remember Matt Etherington at the Hammers years back the club loaned him a substantial sum of money to cover a gambling debt well that just wouldnt happen in elite sport today.
  3. Couple of good 50/50 fights there i fancy Bivol in the big one he just seems a much cleaner fighter,punches in flurries with nice light footwork,copes well on the inside and has great conditioning......Beterbiev on the other hand does get hit a lot and at 40 odd his best days have to be behind him....smashing fight though 2 really classy operators and just what the division needed really.....Clark/Wardley is another good fight i was at the first one and it was a cracking little scrap ive got a sneaky feeling for Clark this time he seems to be a real student of the game and i think he'll of fig
  4. But why just pick on English men ? why not Scotland,Ireland,France,Germany or any of the other European nations that are being persecuted against their will ? What nation are you from mate ?
  5. Must admit i was pleasantly surprised about Dan Dubois id pretty much written his career off after the 2 bad defeats he had....from seeing a lot of him as a youngster it was clear he always had real talent and ability but he was just so mentally fragile it was hard to see him reaching the top,then when he jacked it in them few times i thought the only way he might end up getting the title was in a typical shoot out type fight which i thought Joshua might give him....but he actually boxed really confidently and made the fight quite easy.......Joshua just made too many mistakes and for me shows
  6. I think the game has always gone through tactical trends and changes,if you watched the 66 word cup final for example and compared it to an average 1st division game from the mid 80's its like chalk and cheese....likewise today compared to the 80's or 90's.... i remember what 10 or 15 years ago suddenly trying to get my head around little speed merchants tearing up the wing from a fullback position and having to call them wingbacks,then talking to olduns who watched football before i was born who refused to call them wingbacks as they was nothing like the wingbacks from their days. This p
  7. Some folk treat this gaff like a soap opera .....on and off i must have been coming on here 20 odd years and i barely know the names of a handful of members....how the f**k do some of you's keep up with different people and know if they've changed names or whatever ....getting chucked off and then coming back on in a different name is bordering on madness/sadness surely !
  8. " you lot " .........i take it you are not a white European then ?
  9. When blokes like me were banging on for years about there being a war on white people we got laughed at and called names........now folk are starting to find out the hard way. The basic " stand up against your government " attitude is no longer possible when the entire framework of a nation is corrupt against its own native citizens.....other white nations are starting to figure it out yet us in our determination to please people who hate us will roll across the line in last place finally working it out when we're the only ones left doing it !
  10. " Racist "....the word so used and abused that it no longer has any relevance to the original excuse it was hijacked for in the first place ! Have you ever been treated differently because of the way you look ? Ever been overlooked for a job at some point in life ? Ever been called a name relative to your skin colour ? Ever been stopped and searched by plod for no real reason ? Ever been chased by a group ? Your working class thats all.....get over it for f**k sake !
  11. Joshua will be as well avoiding Dans jab its a punishing shot......personally i think Dubois will just be a little bit too easy to hit though and Joshua is a reasonably fast and accurate puncher....cracking fight though and good card in general,proper British fight night like the old days....you have to hand it to Joshua he avoids nobody its probably the most competitive heavyweight fight out there at the moment.
  12. Personally i think theres a lot to be said for kids growing up in a City like London.....we talk like its gone downhill but it was always a shithole but its a shithole that teaches you a lot about yourself and about life in general,it puts you into situations where you find out if you can depend on yourself....stick a kid raised in rural Berkshire onto a rough London council estate and he wont be street savvy enough to cope whereas the council kid into a rural area will probably flourish.....my belief is that id rather have certain life skills even if i no longer need them....than need them an
  13. No pride these people.....flee from a shithole country,recreate all the squalor they left behind,then book themselves as " traditional " once enough years have passed.....silly c**t clearly isnt aware theres not a single part of Silvertown that the Tate & Lyle refinery cant be seen from !.......City Airport and Tate & Lyle still the two biggest employers in Newham. I'll keep an eye out for that documentary
  14. About 15 miles for me....born in Bethnal Green but lived in most parts of East London growing up from Mile End to Canning Town.....same as most chaps of my generation from the manor if you do reasonably well you move out to Essex and if you dont you stay put,i moved away over 20 years ago now but still have a place in just about the only respectable part left in East London.......ive always admired folk who stay in the area they was raised just seems something quite honourable about it to me.
  15. Dont know if you are still looking for a mill but know a chap with a real nice quality Firepaw mill for sale just under a grand,down here in London.
  16. Think i'll hold off my return to going down the Hammers just a little while longer with the run of fixtures we have coming up
  17. The better condition a dog is in the longer it will take to find the quit in it. We're talking about 2 completely different things......no dog can be held at peak condition for months on end......conditioning a dog is one thing,peaking a dog is something else again. Cricket and Tennis both use a bat and a ball but they are not the same sports
  18. Thats the Nye Bevan Estate,the area has had millions pumped into it,youth clubs,boxing clubs....the old middleweight James Cook received an MBE for the work he did there......you can take the ghetto out of the area but you cant take it out of the people !
  19. You wouldnt have a clue what you was looking at mate.....Mayfield was the greatest conditioner of his day.....but that was them days ! How is selling fighting dogs to other fighting dog men peddling ? None of them old timers were whiter than white when it came to hanging papers,selling curs and many of the other unscrupulous dealings of the day.....to pretend they came anywhere even close to their predecessors in terms of selling the dogs out is plain wrong. And i suppose the " bull " part of the genetic make up is supposed to take the blame for that ........see what i mea
  20. I aint got the rhythm for the steel drum so thought id give the old twerking a go but apparently my booty aint quite up to it.......f**k em their loss.
  21. Obviously im not referring to a Lurcher " God " such as yourself im talking about the thousands of mere mortals who have used Apbt blood......they wasnt accidental matings ! And as regards it being detrimental to the breed im not talking about that im talking in regards to the legendary dog men of the past,these men wouldnt even have known what a Lurcher was let alone a poxy f****n XL Bully.....their lifetimes works are being used to create breeds they never knew existed totally inferior to what they had around them at the time.

    Oasis

    Not much of a music fan myself dont mind a bit of Oasis but remember being on holiday once hearing an annoying Manchester accent in a queue behind me.....eventually turned round to see a geezer with one of them dopey haircuts i just looked at him and literally burst out laughing i couldnt help it and was none too subtle admittedly......he gave me a " whats so funny look " and i thought well f**k it im here now so preceded to explain to him how my old Auntie Rita back in the 70's had the exact same look and how i always presumed she wore a syrup......took it well enough the geezer ended up havi
  24. Only in a society as depleted as this could we find anything even remotely funny about such modern day catastrophes being sanctioned.
