    In all fairness,from what i was told he was more than a touch naive in his business dealings and didnt just lose money......its often the way when gullible sportsmen come away from sport and think their name is enough to carry them through,it just dont work like that boxings a ruthless ol game but nothing compared to business......sadly some folk find out too late its happened to a number of ex fighters unfortunately.
  2. Ive a pal whos a real cheapo got married a couple of years back and has been wearing a £ 5.99 stainless steel wedding ring out of Argos ever since.....looks exactly like white gold and still as good as new.
  3. I know a few folk who use the The Dogfood Company they,re round Sudbury way i know they deliver to Clacton/Maldon sort of areas.....depends how much your spending i spose.....probably got a number somewhere if you cant find them

    Ok.....dont know about the personal training i was just told he,s in the fitness game....i know he was tucked up in a few business ventures when he came out of boxing and that his son was a bit of a loose cannon running round with gangs and thats what led to depression etc......im only repeating what i was told so who knows i never knew the man but told he,s a nice enough fella so hope he continues to move forward.
  5. :laugh: ...i came out the flats mate on one of the biggest toilets of a council estate in east london...................but thats no excuse for being a f**k up is it.

    Last i was told he had a book deal that got him out of trouble financially and is now back in the fitness game.....that depressions a f****r of an illness !
  7. Too right ive never seen what hard drugs do.......most people with half a brain distance themself from shitbags........if you surround yourself with shit people....shit is usually what you will get.......you dont need experience to work that out its common sense for most folk.
  8. Scotsman who has very little interest in football commenting on a football topic says even more
  9. Totally agree......if people took responsibility for their own actions and their own decision making instead of always blaming others for decisions they themself make life would be far more simple..........i used to fight at football but f**k going to war in Afghanistan thats not for me.....................one doesnt lead to the other,we make choices,simple............................and who,s Frank
  10. Something very fishy about that article..................had the shit kicked out of him by 3 lads,one of them done him round the cannister with a blunt object................and all he,s got is a black eye and a bruise on his lip ......what was it 3 eight year olds !
  11. If i thought my kids were at risk from a scumbag of any sort in my own area..............id do whatever it took.......if my kids reached a certain age where they didnt know right from wrong id have to take responsibility...........and thats coming from somebody who totally failed as a parent i must add .....but like i say,we all have to take responsibility for our own failings. No excuse for shitbags selling gear to kids,but again.......sometimes you got to do whatever it takes.........if there was a kiddy fiddler living at the top of the road you wouldnt just gamble on the hope your own kid
  12. As with most kennel block type set ups your big issue will be drainage.....and not just the immediate vicinity ( away from the kennels ) but where it all ends up......ive seen some great looking set ups that winthin 6 months were being uprooted and redone to accomodate correct drainage. With a dog in each of those kennels your talking about 7 dogs in a space of 16 x 12.....and thats without the shepherd......thats a lot of dogs in a small area....id forget a roof.....id want as much air swirling around as possible in that sort of space......as long as nothings made of wood and you keep up goo

    Cocaine,steroids and stella i could live with.....being a social worker/counsellor/keeper of the peace........sod that i wouldnt last 5 minutes these days.....my hats off to you sir anyone who can stick that game for as long as you have gets my vote....... a couple of years was plenty for me........
  14. No its not their fault its their parents fault........................adult human beings have to take responsibility for themself and their kids mate thats just life..............its too easy to blame another adult rather than facing up to our own failings.....but that takes character,of which very few people really have sadly.

    new years eve

    Not a big drinker myself and i cant stand overweight little pricks running round thinking they,re Tarzan just because of beer so i,ll have a few friends round to the gaff....hopefully in a good mood after a nice away win at Derby
  16. I totally agree......if every adult human being stood by their own choices we would have less of a blame culture in this country.......we want to blame the girl who gets raped because she wears a short skirt,we want to blame the drug dealer instead of the person who chooses to take it..................adult human beings make choices if they make the wrong one take it on the chin and make better choices for the future dont go blaming others for your mistakes.....

    Kindle?

    My mrs is exactly the same mate......im always saying to her " no way have you read every word on every page "..............i bought her one some time ago she hated it,especially on holiday where the suns constantly shining on it.......she also prefers what she calls " the feel and smell of a good boook " but then your mrs probably aint as scatty as mine so hopefully it wont be money down the toilet.
  18. Clearly youve never been to birmingham or london then lol.Also plenty of chinese are married to british white people I'm sure there are,but i've never seen a chinese man with another race of girlfriend/wife Must admit ive no real problem with the chinks they keep themself to themself........by and large they stick to their own Blans right you dont see many chinese going outside their own people certainly not compared to other races.......they dress normal,try to speak our language and like the English traditions footie and a bet etc.....forced to share our country id rather share it
  19. I agree with this......sometimes the proof is in the pudding....some of the fittest most well looked after no expense spared dogs ive ever seen grew up on and lived on chain set up yards,often with multiple dogs.........having a dog on a chain is no excuse for letting shit build up or not socialising a dog thats just bad animal husbandry regardless where they are kept.....id rather a well kept dog on a chain than a poorly kept dog in the house.......the chain,likewise the run,is merely to stop the dog running away i fail to see how it makes a dog more aggressive unless the dog is neglected or
  20. Yep i get what your saying mate and your right,especially the example about Special Forces etc that was a good one .......but i personally dont class dedication/drive as a skill......a skill is something that cant be taught you just have a natural talent for something...you may go your whole life without ever even knowing you have it,but its there.......dedication/drive if its there will usually surface in some other form it dont have to be sport some folk are just born naturally more driven than others.......drive with no skill is useless if your in a sport that requires skill........drive w
  21. The thing is mate,your talking about traits and qualities within athletes who have already reached the top.......Roy Keane didnt reach the the very top of his sport by lacking in any of the qualities we,ve mentioned........this is my point about how a sport like football is far " more of a sport " ( for want of a better saying).......than cycling......Roy Keane had bundles of skill/talent..............he also had bundles of drive,commitment and energy................the lad Cavendish had every bit the drive,commitment and energy Roy Keane had......but what skills does he have in a sport that d

    Just out of interest....Jones actually beat Kirkland Laing twice the first fight at Wembley Arena wasnt as convincing as the second but he was still somebody Laing just couldnt get past......Kirkland Laing was one of those misfit types you just want to get by the scruff of the neck and demand he dedicates himself.....although he was from Nottingham way he was a Duff/Lawless fighter so trained most of his career out of the Royal Oak he wasnt a well liked man,not because of his arrogance or his general weirdness....simply because he was so damn good !!.....i remember people like Lloyd Honeyghan

    Kindle?

    :laugh: .....Excellent......the amount of people who are going to get a kindle for their next birthday !.....talk about technology gone up its own arse......do what i do Jigsaw,stick with the normal everyday bookcase !
  24. Drove up to Birmingham yesterday for the Hammers game a few pals of mine handed me an envelope with a " special christmas gift " ..................having opened it up the first words i saw were " thankyou for sponsoring an East African child " ....................hence,i am now sponsoring Memiki from Rwanda for the next year !!!!
  25. All this thing about a dog on a chain will be more aggressive blah blah blah.....what nonsense......ive kept dogs on chains,in runs and on cable lines.....cable lines i always found best followed by chains then runs last......a dog on a chain will have far more room,can see the world without looking through bars,and will feel far more close to you than being behind the door so to speak......think how many times you walk near or past your dog over the course of a day your much more likely to have a quick little pet or play about with your dog on the end of a chain than you are having to open a
