Right result. I think too many personally dislike Terry for the 'Bad Man' he undoubtedly is. But he charactor wasn't on trial. Besides Anton's behavior was real bad to say the least. In fact disgusting. His words were worst in fact and should have had a slap. He swore and insulted and tried winding Terry up big time. So he can dish it out but can't take it eh!. Terry replied with truth. Anton didn't know oat till his girl friend and Agent told him, then pushed him to take action. Should have had handbags at dawn and got over it

They will do, but will cut across if able at the wash. That's why the NRCC is called the East Coast Club.

true, Witters whole make up and frustration of being a guy no one liked worked greatly against him. very true, but that doesn't deflect from the point he was classes above Hatton, which Hatton well knew of course. What got up my nose was the fact that A. witter offered to fight him for nother and Hatton have all the purse, or his purse be donated to charity of Hatton's wish. But Hatton side stepped that to abuse, or make up flimsy, silly excuses. Like Dempsey who had a answer for not fight any one with breathe left in them... even excuses like 'He treats his wife bad' My son - in - law went Las Vegas, etc. and many other times with Hatton, and his fights etc. Thinkst the sun shines from his back side.... But has said to Hatton 'You mustn't bad mouth Witter.... etc. And Hatton hadn't ever got a realistic excuse for not fighting him. Best was the ludicriss statement he put out 'That he didn't think Witter deserved it, him making money off him fighting him'! Struth Hatton didn't need to fight Witter to make money, that was the very bottom line. Also Witter, unlike Eubank, a realy unheard of and not like fight for his first 16 wins, could change, or invent an image. If one doesn't fit into the media's way of thinking, then you have a very tough and long road to pound. possibly the best scenario one can think of is the Henry Cooper and his love of the british people. Far better and more deserving fighters were underrated via the media, and 'Our Henry' was heralded and built up wonderfully via the media. Others , well... So give Hatton his due, and no more. He earnt his money, wore his heart on his sleeve and was Public's pin up boy. THAT should never have been at the detremental expulsion of a better fighter, namely Witter.

Just ask Me, Mayweather pulled out of his fight with Witter. And refused it afterwards a few times. Now I don't doubt for a minute that he didn't think he could beat Witter but knew it would be a long hard fight against a real puncher and could get caught and possibly put away any time. So why risk it? Like We said to Minterand on his deaf ears 'Why fight Hagler? The best you can hope for is a very long hard night and a points win.... Though unlikelywe all thought! Pride went before the fall there too. So who can really blame some for ducking the one that could cost them £millions, and reputation legacy? No one really. Does Mayweather think the Pac Man would beat him? Of course not, I doubt that very much, Niether do I, but he has too much to chance to lose I guEss. Easier and less precarious fights for good money about than put it all on the line. Who knows after his prison stretch, and Pacs debatable loss.... No, I think it mighjt be his swan song and then only when he is more certain to win. After all niether need the other to make money! But pride etc. ...

He wore his heart on the sleeve for sure. Over rated and very well handled and managed that's for sure. Won't ever see him fight again in the ring of that I'm sure ... I know, never say never, But of course Witter, though real old now, is still around, and suprisingly won the title last time out, so Hatton will never come back. Whats the first thing Hatton used to insist on when having an audience? 'No questions regards Witter' then abused the better man. Only way to try and save face eh! Like Calzaghe and Froch when he rather pack up and relinquish the title than fight him ... yet had the balls from afar to insult Froch BUT still wouldn't come to fight!. Something that Froch never did, for he pateintly waited and abided his chance that never came. Would have thought more of him if Like sibson, and many others that said 'I'm not fighting him.... and TRuth' etc. Or been hoest and said, 'Well Witter the Hitter is awkward and a class boxer, and If I lost to him, which i doubt, It could well cost me £millions....' Ok that would service as truth and pulled the knowleageable fans on his side. As it is, he has thenm desturbing nights of A. knowing he ducked him big time, B. the better man, and C. though he'd lost he would now wish he'd foughtb him.... But then thinks of the money he earnt and rolls over with a smile on his face and says 'Stuff him, I've got the three wheeler of Del Boy' which he has. lol.

Yep, one for next season eh! No need to send again of course. Indeed from reports of racing this season, and the losses, I fear that many will have a depleted team for next season Old birds Mind I can't help but feel that this season has been a boon as too many lofts carry far too much fodder. Yes of course some good and proven birds have been lost, a bridge too far and sent once too often etc. But must be good in the fact that now many will be breeding off of prove birds of homing ability. Next season or two will tell about the racing ability. But I'd wager that racing will have gone up by quite a lot in merit. A far better stndard will be reached. JMO.
-
Northants has rain sparodic. Very over cast and cold. Think that they may well be coming over this way. Good luck to all who sent.
-
Cleansed and with just one / two tops, wraps with a very thin cloth / mesh. Then wraping with sellotape. This will strengthen into a split. 2-3 weeks, soak in soapy water to remove. Have joined back a leg that was busted next to the body, plus many others unfortunately, sin
-
Why. Will be in better shape and condition than when sent. Won't hurt them none whatsoever as past holdovers -10 days even and longer, have proved. Only ones that want them brought back would be Widowerhood flyers I guess.

Personally in reality I think much worse things are aimed at folks regularly without offence taken. Evra can call Suarez mother and sisters whores, cheap sluts and easy rides that will *expletive removed* anyone, and then go and cause hassle because Saurez retaliates and uses a word spoken every day in his country, indeed most of the world. The Fa were bang out of order there when asking Saurez if he wanted to press ahead with his case. He said 'Nah' part and partail of the game and best let it drop'.He thought it would all be forgotten and paid no heed. But Evra - who has done similar before and after, went ahead and pressed charges. I think he is scum, and I'm not being racist ( if I really wanted to upset him I could call him a Jock lol The FA, shouldn't have asked Suarez but gone ahead any way if they were concerned... Or at best brought it out in Suarez's defence, which they failed to do, and then didn't let that be used even or aired. No wonder Liverpool, and Daglish were peeved To say the least. Now when I'm called white trash and honky lol I let it slide... If they insulted my sister and mother like that he'd got a flipping good slap. Would definately had his mouth cleansed and new teeth. But stating a colour, or ethnic is bad, worse! I don't think so. I further believe, as with Evra, it is just a card being used to gain unfair advantage. Blumming adda, if I call Sir Alex a Jock, or a Scot, am I being racist... Just being truthful lol.

Just trying to catch the headlines. Would be sadden to see any Scot take umbrage at that! Of course some will, they just can't help it. Any swipe at the English is justified eh!
-
Walter behave. Besides I think you'll would find that most of the English want shot of Scotland . A great drain of our cash. Yet how to do it gracefully is the problem. Alex wants to leave, but with the English still sponsoring them, pouring cash into their coffers. Most Scots want to stay part of UK as it is now. Even after the vote in 2014 or 2020 or whenever we get it they will still be a part of the UK. Just independantly ruled and no money hopefully from England eh!... they ain't so daft after all now are they...
-
Gosh, try to give the poor jocks a bit of credit... nearest to a Scot title win they will ever get most likely, and they don't want IT LOL. No he didn't win at Wim before. Was the first title in 75 years for a jock, some Buster geezer in 1938.... Mind has been 35 years since the English have won a singls title there I believe... Could be wrong, but .... Ah darn could google it, but not interested at all really too.

Won't make a scrape of difference how many are going different ways. About time ALL bodies got together and saved costs, and the fanciers money, by all taking each others birds.

Well that was his best chance ever and he blewit. Well the truth is he wasn'nae good enough. federerr is possible way down on the slippery slide downwards, so .... Certainly not the force he once was, but still played very well by all accounts - never watched it myself. one of the few sports I've never been in the slihtst interested in. Murphy will never have such a good chance again, that's for sure. So realistically he'll never win at SW19 that's for sure. Many good and eager youngsters coming through too. Mind, his brother, did win a title, abeit in the doubles, without Andy of course as he has changed partners. Seems to have worked too. So he did well and no one seems to have noticed. Well done Johnathon.
-
Me too. Like I say, I don't wish him ill, indeed I hope he wins. But I wouldn't pee in his ear if his moddled brain was on fire. He is full of it. A wealthy snob with an unwarrented axe to wield, let alone grind. plus I certainly wouldn't down any Brits moment of glory, be it an First class A$sehole or not. I shouted my self hoarse time in the Olympics when the Welsh girl won our YES our' first gold, likewise with Hoy and then Pendleton alike. Even cheer the home side at soccer, rugby etc, and the individuals too, but if against a English opponent, then ofcourse they comes first. Like you say, back to enjoying the pigeons.
-
Exactly Tammy. Me too. Gulkie, you should read the facts regards our pasts. The English didn't fare any better under English rule than the Scots Irish Welsh did etc. And umpteen thousand Scots... be a few million actually, are in England working, getting a roof over their' heads and education etc. etc. Never see any clambouring to go back. Indeed in the vote for independance seem the majority want to stay as it is! Like a Scotsman said in Mini Scotland (Corby)not so long back. 'It's a flaming disgrace, they have never been o Scotland, yet call the English at every chance possible after thir parents owe their very being to the English. they are down here working .... etc. They certainly lined the streets and waved wll to the Queen 3 weeks ago. Shows vast amounts or stupid ignorance doesn't it from a few small minded idjuts I guess!
-
Yep Georgie, and very anti English as his record shows.... was great last year him back tracking and bowing to the queen after promising ... lol. So Georgie never mind Boiling my head, time yours started educating you... You can read I take it lol.
-
Think it best the racist stays Scottish. Don't wish him not to do well, and all power to his elbow. But personally I don't want to be a part of the Brittish he is. A rich spoilt racist.
-
Best fancier ever told me.... Send him. Same as most good flyer wouldn't hesitate today. After all it's not far, so should be more than fine.
-
Without a shadow of doubt, as most good fanciers whom have flown both state that Lerwick is by far the hardest race anywhere. I myself have no doubt also to it. Many believe that lerwick is possible the hardest race any country included. Was ata moot last seasons end, when some National flyers were asked the same question. Every single one said (All five) Lerwick. Like one said, Pau returns soon forgotten, now if one has a good lerwicke race, then they will alway remember that and mention till the day they die.
