    Haven’t seen the full film for a few years now, it’d be good to see it on the big screen. I remember the first time I watched it as maybe 10 year old. At the time I was obsessed with Kestrels, as barring a very occasional sparrowhawk, they were about the only raptor I ever saw. I still feel the same way watching kestrels now as I did then, so much scarcer now though.
  2. It was definitely a close fight. The judges unanimously agreed that Usyk won rounds 1, 8, 9 and 10, and Fury won rounds 5, 6, 7 and 12. The other 4 rounds were scored 2/1 in favour of Fury (rounds 2 & 4) and Usyk (rounds 3 & 11). I scored it 7 to 5 in favour of Usyk but could see how a few rounds could be scored either way depending on what (who) you like. What clinches it for me is that Usyk came forward for the vast majority of the fight.., which I’ll always favour, and the knock down which might have been a stoppage, and ‘without a bell’ would have been the end of the fight. Would
  3. I still find myself singing this to myself from time to time
  4. I’d like to see it again but I thought the ref might have stopped the fight before he called the knock down. There was nothing coming back from Fury at that point.
  5. Only Fury fan boys saw that. The rest of the boxing world had Usyk a clear winner.
  6. Who cares. Load of shite. Get the fighters in the ring and get on with it. Edited to add, this is fcuking ridiculous. How many songs is this cnut doing!!!
  7. Changed my mind on this a few times but I’ve now got a feeling Usyk might stop Fury in the second half of the fight after knocking him over a couple of times. Think if Usyk can keep a high tempo to his work he’ll tire Fury and maybe draw a mistake later in the fight.
  8. So it turns out he weighed in at 223lbs and not 233! The minute people thought Usyk had come in very heavy they were making all sorts of predictions, punters would be laying bets and odds would be changing. What a fcuk up!
  9. Never took his jeans off. I reckon he had rocks in his pocket. Bookies rightly favouring Fury in my opinion. His size advantage almost makes this a mismatch on paper. Usyk though smaller is by far the best boxer Fury’s ever faced, so interesting to see how he copes. Hopefully it’ll gel and we’ll get a classic. I’m even going to pay for it without complaining lol.
  10. Nah, with Fury’s height I can’t see him landing low on Usyk.
  11. Been watching a crow smash a starlings nest in the house next door all day. Taken three chicks out the nest (that I’ve seen) so far. They don’t help themselves the racket they make. Nature can seem cruel at times.
  12. Beat him by UD same as Fury did first time. Maybe if Usyk had a couple more pointless fights against Chisora he’d have done better?
  13. I absolutely do, and have debated the state of the EPL on here before. Probably accused clubs of selling their soul, where in reality it’s been slowly pilfered away by people whose only motive is to maximise profit and market share and who give zero fcuks for the man on the terracing or the integrity of the actual sport. The game changed forever with the advent of subscription tv early 90’s. Apparently the EPL is now the ‘best league in the world’. I don’t dispute that it has some of the very best players and managers in the game.., a game which has changed a fair bit tactically and with all t
  14. It’s coming! Said on here years ago that I see a day that we see say a Man U v Arsenal league fixture played in Vegas, or Chelsea v Liverpool live from Beijing in the middle of the night. The more that club ownership moves from people who actually support the club, the less football will give a fcuk about the real supporters. Fifa exploring impact of playing domestic matches abroad WWW.BBC.CO.UK Fifa are examining the impact of moving domestic competitive matches...
  15. Not just the BBQ they’d asked that they keep windows closed when cooking meat! I’d do and say nothing and simply carry on as normal. It’s giving an inch to these entitled fruit cakes which has caused all the problems. Eating meat is entirely natural for us as a species and no-one has any business getting in the way of you doing so. Hunting is the other cheek of the same ar$e.
  16. A teacher once told me I’d be no good at poetry due to my dyslexia. So far I’ve made two jugs, a vase and an ashtray…, so fcuk you Mrs Collins.
  17. A new study found mosquitoes the length and breadth of Scotland due to ‘warmer weather’. They love a bit of scare mongering do the BBC. Remember 30 or more years ago fishing in the Southern highlands and getting bitten to death by ‘continental style’ mosquitoes, so they haven’t suddenly just arrived. I’d rather have mosquitos any day than the clouds of our native midgies I’ve had to endure.

  18. Stuck the nut on a lad half his size and came off looking worse. He really is an attention seeking clown.
  19. Have high PSA for my age (51) an enlarged prostate and blood in my piss. Just waiting for a date for an MRI to get it looked at. Had a cystoscopy on Friday which ruled out bladder cancer. I’ll give the nettle root and pomegranate juice a try. Cheers.

    Oh well. O’Sullivan’s tournament to lose now.., or so it would seem.

    Snooker

    O’Sullivan has turned into a bit of a bellend. On his game, like all elite level sportsmen, he is an absolute joy to watch. In recent years though I think his ego has got bigger and he now talks a fair amount of sh!te. Fast becoming snookers answer to Tyson Fury.
  22. Not even sure what this is, far less why I’d need one!

    Vets

    Daylight robbery is the name of the game now. I reckon most pet owners take out insurance in case they ever have to visit the vet, as they know it’ll cost an arm and a leg. Vets know that the insurance companies are coughing for the bill so will rinse it for everything they can get. The ones that suffer most are those that can’t afford insurance nor the bill when they wind up at the vet. Think it must be what healthcare in the US feels like.., and where the UK is heading once they start selling off the NHS. Happy Friday everyone

    Fancy Trump. Selby, Brecel, Williams, Carter all out. Robertson didn’t even qualify.
