  1. Max is right its none too pleasant......an endoscopy its called ive had 2 in the last year its no fun im afraid.....both times i opted for the knock out but it dont knock you out your still gagging like f**k and feel like your gonna die ......go for the spray if i ever have another one i will.....left me with a sore throat for a week or so.......best of luck.
  2. What cracks me up about the national side is how otherwise loyal football fans can be so honest..........a Leeds,Liverpool,West Ham fan can say " we are shit " with no hesitation about England.................while in the next breath saying " Liverpool are a great side " ....or whoever it might be. Thats our trouble we all loyally " support " our clubs but have no loyalty whatsoever when it comes to our country....well most of us anyway.
  3. Baw that is possibly one of the most backward statements you have ever come out with !..........Why is a national team a strong indication of how good that countries league is ..............The English premier league is one of the top leagues in World football,the national team is far from that............The Germans are a great national side but only recently is their league coming up to scratch.......Italy,Argentina and Brazil are some of the greatest sides in the history of International football but their leagues are relatively poor.I know you have a constant desire to slag English footba
  4. Greg what you say is true in many ways.............but we are talking about a very rough part of the east end of London not stockbroker belt Surrey.............if you could ask 100 normal everyday families if they would rather be back in 60,s Bethnal Green or todays Bethnal Green i guarentee you the vast majority would prefer the 60,s...........so things couldnt of been that bad could they.
  5. No......but to use such a word as " nonce " you better believe im going to have to be 110% sure before i use it as i know and understand the consequences of getting it wrong !............Some people dont mind throwing serious words around based on heresay. I tend to go with common sense and the words of literally hundreds of people of that exact era in that exact area my own father included that ive heard say they had no idea at all about any sort of " noncing "...........they say yes Ronnie liked young boys.............but its funny how over the generations the age of these young boys see
  6. Simple......you bring out mandatory insurance policies and good old fashioned dog licenses............no insurance you lose your licence.....own a dog without a licence your banged up. Same as cars.....if you want to own a Ferrari and live in a big city your premium is ridiclously high......if you just want a bog standard run around your premium is low..................same theory applies to high and low maintenance dogs. Doubt it would ever happen but makes perfect sense to me.
  7. That will be the day.....Kennel Club registered breeds like Staffords & Mastiffs on a banned breeds list,it will never happen !............Only those Pit Bull mongrels and a few other breeds that have never even stepped foot on British soil are on the banned breeds list
  8. If you look at it logically instead of the film/malicious gossip etc.........the Krays employed hard " take no shit " type of men.....big strong men who were respected and feared in equal measures....... are we to believe they were so fearful of a couple of 5 ft 10 inch brothers that they would turn a blind eye to them being paedophiles ?......That respected people like Freddie Foreman or the Lambrianous were too petrified of 2 brothers to say " no thats wrong "..........you think hard uncompromising men would be ok working with and for kiddly fiddlers ?...........I think sometimes stories and
  9. Baw that is possibly one of the most backward statements you have ever come out with !..........Why is a national team a strong indication of how good that countries league is ..............The English premier league is one of the top leagues in World football,the national team is far from that............The Germans are a great national side but only recently is their league coming up to scratch.......Italy,Argentina and Brazil are some of the greatest sides in the history of International football but their leagues are relatively poor. I know you have a constant desire to slag English foot
  10. You know for 100% fact the krays had sex with children ?.....if your not being swayed by films or malicious gossip etc then wow you must of been at the heart of the inner circle to know that information.....and if you was why didnt you stop it !
  11. Its funny how money changes peoples outlooks............as an International football team we have never been anything above top 7 or 8 at best.......before 66 nobody felt we had a right to be the best..............after 66 nobody felt we had a right to be the best................but now the last 10 years since the " millionaire footballer " era we suddenly think we should be the best.......just because wages increase dont mean our expectancy levels should increase with it.
  12. You say we are shit....but who are you comparing us to Spain and Germany ?.....The worlds greatest international sides................yes we are a long way behind those nations but you could just as easily compare us to inferior nations as compare us to nations better than us.................but then i suppose we wouldnt be English if we didnt slate our own
  13. I dont think you can compare the poverty and conditions of being skint in post war London to being skint today though mate.
  14. He might say it straight........he states the obvious in as controversial way as possible.....thats ok but its his basic demeanour and complete lack of personality...........i could sit listening to that lad Gary Neville all day he has an infectious passion to go with his clear knowledge of the game that makes him an interesting pundit to listen to.............Roy Keane comes across like he doesnt really like football and doesnt want to be there.
  15. 5 big strong aggressive dogs in a pokey little house in a heavily populated area,surely theres got to come a time when some sort of authority must step in and say no..........some folk need protecting from their own stupidity sometimes.
  16. If you cant get a job,cant afford to eat and clothe yourself these days you can run down the social............................you couldnt then. Theres a famous old East End saying " If you cant sing and dance you fight or kick a ball.....................and if you cant do that your a criminal " In other words,getting money through crime wasnt a " career choice " back then like it is today.
  17. I was under the impression a nonce was someone who abused kids.........benders having consenting sex makes me feel as sick as the next man but to compare it to child rape is just daft ! As for anything good to say.....ive got more respect for a couple of skint young lads going out getting money any which way ............than ive got for a couple of skint young lads sitting on their arse waiting for a dole cheque every week!.............But then i spose it depends how you look at it lifes easy if your skint these days it wasnt then.

    Cancer

    Stone me and im sitting here whingeing about a back ache !!......Good luck to you boy,please god you get an all clear.
  19. Was a bit grim.................we just seem to back up and back up till we,re defending on the edge of our 6 yard box i dont know if its a confidence thing or what...... As for that Roy Keane i dont know why they have that miserable c**t on there as a pundit he clearly dont want to be there he looks put out every time he has to talk !
  20. Its a different world now Wilf......years ago if you was at it....you still needed some kind of quality....be that physical or mental...... Today its simply a case of " whos willing to go the furthest ".............today a weak minded 9 stone spotty teenager with zero personality can be the most dangerous and respected guy on the manor..........for a little while. Those old timers however nasty still had very basic human qualities physical or mental......which is what gave them longevity.
  21. My opinion is that the genuinely " horrible b*****ds " dont last...............and the decent people regardless of how they earn dough....do last. Thats only a theory based on very basic belief in my fellow man in that ultimately you get what you deserve. People like the old timers spoken of here.....Mclean/Shaw/Richardsons etc all but for tragic illness lived out a good life to a decent age...........the " horrible b*****ds " tend not to reach retirement.
  22. Lennie Mclean,Roy Shaw......and many others like them worked for a living.....straight or crooked they earned money....................................gangsters dont work they live off people who do work.
  23. Over the years ive heard a thousand different tales from a thousand different people about Lennie.....hence i judge by what i see with my eyes and hear with my ears.............i stood next to Lennie ( well behind him most of the time ) along with his cousin Johnny Wall and Dave Sackett for 2 years on the door of The Hippodrome,Equinox and Ronnie Scotts and never once did i ever see him out of line....yes he was plenty aggressive regardless of size but he wasnt paid to weigh people before dealing with them..............Lennie was an old time club bouncer not a trendy doorman.....and there was
  24. The problem is people get the term " gangster " confused with people just out to get money......far as im concerned the only East End gangsters theres ever been were the Krays little firm,simply because they set themself out as a gang from the start............everyone else who was just out chasing money got labelled a gangster !! Lennie Mclean would turn in his grave if he thought he was getting labelled a gangster.......i had the pleasure of getting to know Lennie over the period of a couple of years in the early 90,s and a kinder more polite and generally funny man you would never meet....
  25. Brawlers are just not suited to the amateur " points make prizes " scoring system.............plenty of good fighters have had poor amateur records so i wouldnt let it bother you too much.
