Flippen ek, I've made it very clear I'm not defending the footballer, read my posts and the posts they were in response too. Which part of this do you have a problem understanding...... I am not for one second defending the footballer, please read my comments again, and I am not talking about the case specifically, I am responding to some other general comments that have no specific bearing on the actual case. If a 27 year old bloke (footballer or not) and a 16 year old girl does not fit your moral compass then tuff, the law says its fine, argue with the Government, not me! That'l

I don't think that anyone is taking an 'incredibly moral stance' in calling Johnson for what he is, or for questioning some of the posts which have attempted to play down or even excuse what he did. Do you think a 27 year old father trying to get a fifteen year old, or even a sixteen year old girl into bed is okay..., because it certainly comes across as though you do? :laugh: Like I said, perhaps you should read what I said, particularly the bit you quoted and responded to. Just what has your response got to do with my comment? I quoted you as saying that some had tak

Another one for the Darwin awards!

The fact that he's a well known footballer makes it of public interest and ensures significant media coverage. It doesn't make the crime any different in my view. Still can't fathom why people are trying to play this dow

Barry Hines, who wrote the book 'A Kestrel for a Knave', which was the basis for Ken Loach's 'Kes', has died. I first saw the film probably late 70's as a young lad and it fired a fascination and love for the Kestrel and raptors in general that I still have today. Thanks for that Mr Hines - and RIP

Totally agree. The traits that are coveted in some breeds are just selectively bred body mutations and are tantamount to cruelty. Time the KC tore up the standards and started reversing some of these trends, and breed out the squashed faces, the sloping backs and the rolls of skin. Make them all look like dogs again.https://dogbehaviorscience.wordpress.com/2012/09/29/100-years-of-breed-improvement/

Doesn't matter what a 15 year old would do or want to do. The responsibilty for nothing happening lies entirely with the adult.

Congratulations England on winning the competition. I hope the French hammer you. ??

I think if my 15 year old daughter got knocked up by a lad of 16 or 17 say, it might be against the law but I reckon I'd say they were both at least partly responsible for their actions, and bollock them both for fcuking up. If she was 16, and 'legal' and I caught a 27 year old footballer and father to a baby sniffing around her, only after one thing, I'd break both his fcuking legs. It's not just about what the law says.., it's about what's decent. Johnson is a dirty fcuking nonce, plain and simple. Anyone who tries to defend him or excuse him in any way is just as bad in my book.

Real eye opener this thread. I can see now why that beast Saville got away with it for so long. And they say times have changed...

Just catching up with this thread. Got to say I'm staggered by the amount of people who've attempted to play down what Adam Johnson done. Would you in all honesty be okay if it was your own 15 year old daughter? Maybe not that surprised by the characters that are defending him mind. Nonce cnuts.

Some fantastic photos on here so far, by some very competent photographers. I need to get to grips with this photography lark. Best thread on THL by a mile...., keep em coming

A wee male sparrowhawk snapped sitting on the fence this evening. Let me walk up to about 10 yards away. Still couldn't actually take a decent photo mind

We watched our friends grow up together, and we saw them as they fell. Some of them fell into heaven, some of them fell into hell.

Looking to buy a new 7/8# floating line and wondered if anyone had any recommendations. Bought a SA sharkskin line last year and, whilst it casts fine, I can't stand the noise it makes when I'm stripping it so it's got to go.

Zebra toby - probably caught more pike on them than all my other lures and plugs combined??

no-one needs to be alone oh singing...

Ditto.

Think you're getting mixed up. Do mean you can smell a mackem bird from 10 miles? I'd reckon it'd be more than that ????

0/4 get in ?

It was Chevinfox that dug the book out..., he's the bookworm. Good stuff though. I for one have never really associated birds with a good sense of smell, although it seems that some do.

Interesting??

Arsenal, Spurs, Man City, Celtic

I could only guess but as carrion is a staple for most corvids why wouldn't they have developed a nose for finding it. Different league maybe but the turkey vulture has an incredible sense of smell. If you haven't seen the thing Attenborough done in Life of Birds it's worth a watch. Skip to about 15.50 on the clip below ?? http://youtu.be/ShPhYUQmRN8
