Yep been there a few times mate as im up in mid Wales a few times per year.....fascinating when they sling all the grub down you see they're quite a powerful bird. Oh so theres no complicated eco reason then i was hoping it might have something to do with concreting them out of the countryside so i could add it to my ammo against the lefties Ive had the bins out watching them plenty of times but cant get any decent pics with my crappy camera,fascinating to watch though.....thanks for explaining chaps

Might be at risk of getting a raspberry blown at me here but if you dont ask you dont find out. Im noticing as the years go by ( and this year in particular ) how Red Kites are getting closer and closer to my home and i live 2 minutes from one of the busiest motorways in Europe surrounding one of the most highly populated capital cities in Europe.....5,6 years ago even we never saw one,like ever......now just stood in my garden i see them virtually every day in decent numbers ......how does that work,whats the reasons for it and does it have any connection to over population ( human ) and

Theres a lot of studies on head trauma being done at the moment personally i dont think fight sports have much more than a generation or two left......even heading the ball in football theres a big furore about that......this over protection of peoples rights will kill certain sports in time im sure of it.

Dillinger course it was....his owner used to walk that dog round the estate like he was the local celebrity ( the dog not him ) all the little kids used to jump about petting this scarred up little dog there was no secrets in Rotherhithe back then -
Weird that the ol woman just shouted out less than a minute ago " do you know who Willie Limond is "....... Shame that though i was told a while back he was preparing for a fight of some description,i cant imagine that would of been a good idea.....RIP anyway,good fighter.

All sounds a bit odd to me although technology isnt my thing granted, it sounds the sort of thing people without friends do !.....this message board caper is just perfect its about as close as i want to be to complete strangers

I just presumed the fact that he'd used the words " game " and " bulldog " in the same sentence he was referring to Apbt....or not ? Maybe its one of them where folks use certain terms in the wrong context but i think when you've seen genuine gameness up close to the point it makes you want to sob your little heart out you tend to get protective of the term. Wasnt it the black Stafford from South London who lost to Tug the dogs name escapes me .....Guvnor ive heard of just cant remember now its all so long ago -
Personally i think theres plenty of top heavyweights,even fringe world level heavyweights who would be a nightmare for Wilder.

No offence but i dont believe a word of it.....saw and heard of a few of the crosses years ago that showed gameness but never a pure Ebt....cant even recall a pure one that ever even had a match. -
Due to circumstances beyond my control im not allowed to travel outside Europe so in recent years we try to just potter about the nicest parts of Greece last year we did a little private yacht charter thing between myself and some close friends and wives etc it took us all around different islands and just stayed until we got bored and moved on....the captain was a really interesting chap who does 3 trips per year around the world on the Salina Tanker so we've got him and his crew booked again this year,we did it for too long last year and ended up with the last few weeks listening to women m

Thats a decent fight if it go's ahead....might finally show Wilder for what he is.
-
But he didnt....ive seen plenty of fighters want to quit but then get talked around by their corner....its what they're there for. Nigel Benn asked to be pulled out against Mclellend and went on to win an absolute dog fight,it happens.
-
Yes but doing it the way he does it is against the rules.

It could be hunting with dogs,racing with dogs,fighting,football or a hundred other subjects of basic common interest to men of similar ilk,this one just happens to be hunting but id imagine you could go on any forum of those interests and see similar general dialogue.

Diabolical,nothing in the first 5 !.....dont think ive ever had any better than about 3rd in the national.

That picture above is one of them Chinese ones is it not ? think they was selling them for about 400 quid at one point heard a few bad reports about them....they come in like a flat pack kit you put it together yourself......stick to Firepaw you can pick them up for 5/600 quid secondhand much better mills......quite like the look of these new mills coming out now with the rubber belting as opposed to slats they run just as fast as a slatmill without all the noise,bit more expensive though.....theres an Irish fella selling them i'll message you his number if you need it.
-
Yeah i love it been all over the island must have been to Pefkos at least 7 or 8 times over the years ive actually got a couple of quid in a little restaurant there.....wherebouts you going mate ?

All i really meant was most of what some people describe as players being fairies is just pure gamesmanship,you know all that anyway
-
Yeah i dont mind the Turks they're normally up for a giggle ive had some good laughs at that market i remember a few years back me and the mrs went with my pal and his wife they was all doing a deal for something or other while i was looking on another stall.....whatever the price was i forget say 50 euros the Turk had said to my mate " ok 50 Euro's and i kiss the lady "......im a horrible looking c**t at the best of times and my mate pointed towards me and said " theres her husband you better ask him ".....the Turk says " ok 40 Euros " .....its a shithole all around that market but its just a

Oh yeah i agree ive seen some of them big bull crosses,running dogs and suchlike in lovely shape....no im talking about these big am bulls/bandog/corso whatever there called type things i dont think ive ever seen one in good hard condition.

I'll investigate 2 secs.

Come on mate you've played sport,nobody likes the amount of simulation/cheating thats in the game but you'd have to be naive as f**k to think every footballer that falls over rolling around is a delicate little mincer......a cheat yes. And lets not pretend it didnt happen in the good old days when men were men its the nature of top level sport to try and get an edge over an opponent.....if you wanted to give a young lad " life lessons about physical and mental robustness " as you say then you wouldnt take him anywhere near elite level sport you'd take him down his local boys club where t
-
I kind of skipped over this as it didnt seem to warrant a reply but after reading it again f**k me what a funny world you must live in Probably the most brutal and punishing fight in the history of the sport and you're calling one of them a cur for crying out loud

Are we actually going to pretend that Fury just " ties up on the inside " then ?.....what would he gain from doing that ? Fury doesnt " tie up " he mauls......he doesnt " hold " he drags his weight down. Dont be afraid to say it he does these things for a reason and it works. Regards the Ali/Frazier bouts you are wrong,but such iconic fights just dont belong in a conversation about Tyson Fury sorry.

Was it the Liverpool/Newcastle 4 - 3 when Collymore scored the winner and Keegan just put his head in his hands....think that went down as one of the greatest games in Premier League history didnt it......wouldnt say that game tonight was far off.
