  1. Same here.. Just shows how kids brought up with country ways find dead stuff no big deal......my daughter would of run a mile at that age ! Nice picture.
  2. Ive got a bunch of nutty Scouser mates coming down tomorrow......for the first time ever i,ll be happy for them to take the 3 points being that my little Hammers are all safe and tidy mid table ....ive always had a soft spot for Liverpool so dont want to see them drop points at this stage.......still cant see anyone other than City taking the title though.
  3. So how many world champions was that again Max ?...................NONE ? I could give you a list of legitimate world champions out of the East End............and if you want to add contenders to the list as well......................................but i just cant be arsed to be honest.....i dont think i need to prove what the East End has done for British boxing......anyone who has even a little bit of knowledge on the sport already knows
  4. What is atmosphere Max ?......Noise ?...................I can walk into the backyard of the Bricklayers Arms and watch 2 rough boys fight for 50 quid and get an atmosphere like that..............atmosphere is about more than just noise....... Im probably a bit biased towards the York Hall as i fought there myself a few times,but many fighters who have fought there will say the same,its a special place.......ive been in there when its full up.....and near silent !!!..........it is a scarey intimidating atmosphere as a fighter,you know there is knowledgable eyes on you up close,you know the
  5. Max................have a look at the Ringside program this topic started about................listen to what boxing experts say about the York Hall.....then you wont have to take my word for it
  6. How many world champions have come out of Hartlepool Max ?.................simple question.
  7. You are trying to compare domestic fighters with world champions !!!!..................If you cant see how ridiculous that is then you are clearly too lost to work it out ! Of course there are other parts of Britain.......but Hartlepool comes way down the list when it comes to boxing talent........ive been all round the country over the years and met hundreds of different people involved at all levels of the sport,ive never heard anyone talk about Hartlepool as a specific area for boxing talent.....ever !........................so again,to compare it to the East End is just being silly.
  8. I saw the fight years ago yes it was a good little scrap..................but theres good little scraps taking place in small halls all round the country the only reason you are obssessed with it is because this one happened to be in Hartlepool !!!..................Go down the York Hall or hundreds of other small halls round the country you,ll see these kind of scraps every week.......thats the trouble with wearing blinkers Max you only see whats in front of you ......look around you once in a while Comparing a small hall domestic scrap at a local venue..... to a superfight in Las Vegas
  9. I,ll have my usual few housewives bets ..............Balthazar King and the old boy Tidal Bay Ive never even had a place in a national in 30 odd years doubt this year will be any different but its all good fun !
  10. Max i dont really understand this constant desire you have to compare Hartlepool to the East End of London all the time.....but some of your statements are outright bizarre and they are getting worse.....the fact you have felt the need to jump all over this thread with Hartlepool this and Hartlepool that shows a real lack of knowledge on the sport if you are seriously implying it compares to East London for boxing talent
  11. Keep your eye on Johnny Garton he wont win it but he,ll make things difficult for lads who think they can.......little Millwall shlaaagg !!
  12. Only a complete idiot would mention Hartlepool in the same sentance as the East End when it comes to producing fighters..............you dont need to apologise for that its quite funny.......the funniest part is you dont even know when you are wrong
  13. So............are you any the wiser what it is yet ?....................I hate topics like this you get right into it and all curious..........................then it falls away into a load of jokey piss taking ..............come on we need a satisfactory ending
  14. Its amazing how an artist can capture that glint in a dogs eye......i had a few done by somebody years ago that to anyone else they looked identical,but to me having owned the dogs there was something missing and it was that certain look that only the owner would be familiar with.....................cracking pictures whoever did them is obviously very talented.
  15. Ive realised birds couldnt give a shit what is pleasing to our eye.......they seem just as happy having a bath in a paint roller tray as an expensive purpose made bird bath from the garden centre ............my guess is the breeding season will indicate how happy they are with their surroundings.........but by the looks of it a lot of thoughts gone into them aviaries Fireman doubt theres anything more a bird could want for in there
  16. around forty quid fella atb bunnys. Dont know where you do your shopping when i was looking a while back i didnt find any under 100
  17. Thats because if i know im wrong on a subject i can apologise.....some people cant do that................................thats what makes them silly
  18. Just tradition really mate its a piss poor area where there was never nothing to do except fight,thieve or kick a ball.......... naturally when young lads see there elders being succesful at it they strive that little bit harder to rise above the shit of their surroundings.........it was always a harsh area where nobody wanted to back down and with that competetive nature it tended to produce some good fighters........i suppose fighting is just accepted and necessary in some areas......our father was a fighter so me and my brother did it was just a natural progression........think a lot of Eas
  19. . Be gnasher !!!!!!! Sitting here scratching my cannister trying to work out what that means
  20. He,s silly...............................................but he,s not that silly ! Incidentally.......if Martin Bowers or his brothers get their boats in on it........they are innocent of anything they are accused of doing .............I know old man Mickey May gets some good words said about him......and rightly so.....i hate the word " legend "......but at West Ham Boys Club he is certainly that......as was Jimmy Murphy god rest his soul.
  21. You can walk a kid into any gym in East London with a pair of plimsolls and a vest and he,ll be taken seriously..........i presume it works the same in other areas.......get him in there mate good/bad.....win/lose.......its a positive step in any young lads development
  22. You have to favour the South American countries on their own path i fancy the Argies to lift the trophy............England will do well to get out of our group,which i think we have a good chance of doing now the pressure is off.
  23. Im glad he,s going to Forest i feared he might be turned into a bit of a yes man with the England set up but as gte said it will be good to see some young English managers coming through and testing themself.......hope to see them back competing at the top over the coming years.
  24. For any boxing fans this weeks Ringside program tonight is dedicated to East End gyms West Ham BC,Peacock,Trad and looks at fighters/trainers young and old from this area,a few good old friends of mine have a say about why the area is such a hotbed for boxing talent.......Sky Sports 3 at 9.30........the only drawback is dosey Dyer gets in on the act.....but still should be an interesting watch.
  25. " 3 x 12 for the best part nothing heavy " " 3 x 8 sets " etc etc etc Its the perfect example of being dictated to by numbers !..................let your body dictate your training not numbers.............you are not going to have the exact same strength/energy/aggression levels every single session............one day you might be able to push out 10 reps,so do you stop at 8 when you can squeeze 2 more out ?..................another day you may only be able to do 6,so do you force another 2 out and possibly injure yourself just to abide by some numbers on a sheet of paper ?...........
