  1. I don't understand why people blame Cameron and the Tories for the ban. Now lets make it clear, if there was only two choices on the ballot card, 1,Vote Conservative, or 2, stick pins in your own eyes; I'd have no hesitation in saying pass the pins !! BUT it was the Tories who voted against the Ban, but were out voted by the LibDems and Labour !! I honestly believe that if Cameron had a majority, he would overturn the ban, but I doubt they ever will get a majority, especialy with the rise of U£ip ! Cheers.
  2. Cameron CAN'T overturn the ban; as it would need a free vote in parliament, and as the Tories don't have a majority and depend on the LibDems backing, he could never get a majority vote, as the LibDems would vote with Labour to defeat the motion, in other words, keep the ban ! Cheers.
  3. I dont f*****g care if we win or loose you daft prick, You just would not understand ! Lol lol.......... Didn't Liverpool used to be a big club? Lol lol........ Yes, until wee Kenny spent about a trillion quid on shite players; and donated £35 million to the Mike Ashley Benevolent Fund !! LOL !! Cheers.
  4. Maybe you should of voted Tory and things 'may' have been different Chartpolski ........ The things I hate about the Tories far out wheigh the things I like about them. I remember the Miners strikes and the de-industrialisation of the North !! So I guess they'll have to do without my vote !! Cheers.
  5. I've never voted Tory in my life, but they wouldn't of banned Hunting; Cameron rides to hounds, and if it wasn't for the fact they don't have a majority and have to depend on the LimpDems to get legislation voted thru', the Ban would have been repealed by now ! Cheers.
  6. I've got the book, and I'd say it's more of a "coffee table book"; something to thumb thru' and admire. It's certainly not a reference book, and I doubt it was ever meant to be. I think I paid £35 for mine, money well spent in my opinion, but like anything else; it's only worth what YOU want to pay !! Cheers.
  7. I wasn't "some rich people" who banned coursing, (as part of The Hunting Act, 2004); it was the Labour Party, the party that is supposed to be for the working man !! LMFAO !! Even though most of the Labour Party are rich, especialy the b*****d who was then PM ; Blair. Cheers.
  8. Couldn't CMW simply have printed a disclaimer ? Something like; " These are the words and views of Poacher Watch, not the views of CMW and it's editors" ?? Cheers.
  9. Well that didn't answer my question, but to answer yours; I'm lucky enought to live in an area where hunting is still tolerated. The tabloids do a good enough job of sensationalising hunting and coursing, exagerating and twisting the facts, without any help from a weekly magazine that is supposed to support us ! I can see your situation in defending CMW, but they did thereselves no favours with that article, and hopefully it will reflect in thier circulation. Cheers.
  10. Who is giving the bad publicity ? The "very small minority"; or the CMW and Poacher Watch ?? Cheers.
  11. Penny; I don't think this post is about what the CMW DOESN'T print....... it's about the article on Poacher Watch, which states that ALL poachers are violent thugs; which they most certainly are not !! Perhaps a bit more thought and proof reading by the editors may have helped ? Cheers.
  12. Only had a couple of runs, in small paddocks, Steve, and caught nowt ! LOL ! But it was a good trip !! Cheers.
  13. The local landowner, who was also the Master of the Beagle Pack, took me out for a couple of runs, and I did a bit fishing on the Grand Canal; an excellant trip ! Cheers.
  14. I went over two years ago, with a few others off here; Hollyhead-Dublin. I couldn't believe that no one looked in my motor, either going out or coming back !! I had two lurchers with me and no one was interested, just waived our passports out the window and drove straight thru' ! Left the dogs in the motor on the ferry, and they run huge blowers to remove the carbon monoxide, so the dogs are ok. Cheers.
  15. Might be the same lot who robbed the chemist shop of SennaPods; they're still on the run !!! Cheers.
  16. Some things won't change; Lurcher men, Terrier men and Ferreters will continue to buy this rag, (and probably be the biggest section of Field Sportsmen who buy it !!); Lurcher men, Terrier men and Ferreters will continue to contribute articles to it, wether for payment or some sort of "kudos"; CMW owners and editorial staff will continue to think of, and treat Lurcher men, Terrier men and Ferreters as second class Field Sportsmen, and, in the case of this article, as violent criminals !!!! Only when we all boycott buying or contributing to CMW, will the owners realise who pays thier wages and
  17. "Time will tell I suppose"..... I wouldn't hold my breath, mate !! Cheers.
  18. has that dog got a white coursing collar on? The staff of CMW are so lazy, useless, biased, un-informed, that they simply use a file photo on that report ! The pic is obviously from a LEGAL coursing meeting, but hey, I remember an article about the Waterloo Cup, in the CMW, that had a pic of two SALUKI'S wearing red and white coursing collars !! I also remember when one of the CMW staff, (a "lady" many of us know), made a massive fuss about a couple of free tickets to a game fair, and was shot down, but is still a big shot on the CMW staff ! Anyone who buys or advertises or writes for t
  19. As I said mate, he only had the odd roe, he was mainly a hare dog, and he did very well on them. He had a decent racing career and won plenty races, including being runner up in the British Open, which had well over 100 dogs running. Cheers.
  20. HE LOOKS A REAL UN CHARPS ATB BUNNYS.. WOULD HE BE FROM BILKO HENCE SWIFT HAWK MOSSFIELD MARGARET . ATB BUNYS No mate, he was Blue Boy X Zarwood, local bred dogs. I did have dogs from Bilko, Blue Peter, Darley Fly, Haymaker, Yorky Boy, Blue Fawn. To me, the greatest Non-Ped ever was Daisy, by Bilko, out of a greyhound called Frozen Kill. She was the greatest Scratch Dog I have ever seen, and I was lucky enought to slip her, and her brother, Robbo, on a hare, and she murdered it ! The dogs today are doing faster times, but Daisy simply won every race she ran ! My brother had a
  21. is it still legal over there to run hare? what did you like best, uk or out in the sand coursing? Anything is legal in the Middle East, if you know the right people !! LOL !! You might think there is a massive difference between running a dog in the desert and running on frozen stubble.... but once that dog is slipped, the adrenalin takes over and it's dog against hare !! I love it wherever in the world I am ! Cheers. I'd love to go over! Direct flight, Newcastle-Dubai. Then just go into the Mirage Hotel and ask for Hamed Ghunaim !! He's a genuine bloke who will
  22. Here's a pic of a Whippet, (Blue Prince), that I had in the late 60's, early 70's. 21" and around 35lb. He raced on saturday and sunday, and wednesday evenings in the summer. He also worked most days on hares and even took the odd roe; Cheers.

  24. Here's a pic of him after he had run a hare in the desert. They went across a pool of crude oil that was covered in a thin layer of sand; the hare skipped across it.. the Saluki didn't !! LOL !! cheers.
