  1. trouble is, in todays climate 10.10 is 10 meters behind the winer,,, no wonder you couldnt find him with my spelling of his name....... i took me a few attempts in the end i just left off his last name
  2. hes certainly in the right country to get the best out of those dogs simmo
  3. listning to michel johnson takinking about him,,, he is of the opinion hes to big,,, and i think he might be right
  4. heres a few more pics of him gnash http://www.bing.com/images/search?q=harry+aikines&qpvt=harry+aikines&FORM=IGRE#x0y0
  5. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Aikines-Aryeetey ile see if i can find some better pics
  6. cheers for that gnash,,, i honestly never new,,, i realy did think he was clean,, perhaps it was just the fact he had such a lean slim physique,,,,, and his style of running very relaxed,,,, think i sterotyped him cos of his physique... i knew gear was more common than the athleats let on but that was a suprice.. i said ealier about harry atcins arreete,,,,, take a look at this kid,,,, hes a fecking monster,,,looks like the fella from the green mile running down the track
  7. Johnson was not the brightest spark and didnt have clued up folk around him,and got caught twice..................Lewis was a bright intelligent man with the best team around him to offer him the best advice ( and cover ups ).....and didnt get caught once,officially anyway. Physically they was both doing the same.......yes Lewis was using.....our Linford Christie got pushed up to a silver medal......and he was using as well !!!................Some folk are better organised and more knowledgeable than others.......Johnson was just a scapegoat thats all. thats a bald statment gnash,,sayi
  8. think those sloapy backed things are somthing the kc breeders have made popular,, and isnt that the reason for the poor hips in gsd..
  9. do you think the shepherd added abit of stability/easiness to train to the mix tomo? i never seen it from a pup,, just as an adult..... but on paper you would think so..... but bull terreiers are quite inteligent anyway its just alot of owners cant be arsed to train them.. the suprising thing about that particular dog was how athletic it was,,, it was far lighter in build than most big bull cross types,, it had more of a 3/4 type build,,,, like i say i liked it ,,
  10. a lad i knew had a bull/grey x gsd/grey about 20 years ago,, seen it take rabbit, fox , and fallow in the same night,, a very deacent dog
  11. keep your wig on fella,,, its my land and i wanted the numbers,, simple as that, that being said a few spots we did leave the nets of,,,, as is evedent if you look at the pics again............ and that open ground you mention,,,take another look at the steepness of that scree side we were ferreting is that all right for ya sweet heart
  12. very true bunnys,, and as you say put to a grey will no dowt put that fault right,, just thought it needed pointing out as evryone was great looking dog ect,,,, without properly looking at the animal.... now all they need to do is put it to the correct greyhound stud dog
  13. here you go type in your postcode,, and the destination postcode,,, it will give you the best route http://www.theaa.com/route-planner/index.jsp
  14. Put simply the stronger the muscle the better it works to its maximum efficiency.......ie,explosive power = speed and heightened reflexes. Ben Johnson got caught.....Carl Lewis didnt..................physically there was little difference. not shure i know what you mean there gnash,,,,you think lewis was using??? as for physicly they were like chalk and cheese,,,, lewis ran beautifully,, very relaxed , flowing type of moovment,,, whereas johnson was all power.................or do you mean physicaly almost the same speed or talent
  15. they look ok to me Tomo, 3rd pic she looks square to me,( not ) down sloping down like alot of show stuff you see about. She as nice healthy shape, and back to geyhound they should be spot on anyaway yes i agree har back is streight ,,,, but im on about her pasturns,,,, the bit above her front feet to her anckle,,
  16. :laugh: love the irony of your post,,, and your username :laugh:
  17. it does have a nice streight back that black bitch,, which is nice to see,,, but it does have steeply sloaping pasturns
  18. yeh thats kinda what i was getting at,, i donrt like the fact the courts made us have to change,, just cos the rest of the world only ban for 2 years.... its our rules and thats that.....or it was.. i always thought he was alright to be honest ,, and think he should have just got 2 years ,,,,, but banning was our way... if he does get a place,,, and knocks harry atkin arreete out,, it will be sad for the kid...........but has anyone noticed the size of areete,, the kids huge ,,, he realy does look like bodybuilder..............i might be stereo typing,, but if he aint took owt,,
  19. whats evryones thoughts on this topic??? what anoys me is the court overturning our olympic comitys ruling,,, we had rules in place and you abide by them.... i dont actualy mind hes back in ,, the fact he had gear,,,or i should say got cought..... how many more dont get cought... its just this court of arbitration that overturns the rules
  20. two very good old vids,,, and still better than most modern day attempts at filming lamping rabbits,,,, romany is the man to ask,, think he ran with alot of those chaps
  21. to answer your question skycat,,, i would say its the last 25,,years or so that foxing with lurchers has become real popular.. but like you say im shure lads with lurchers have been catching them well befor that,,, but possibly more like you say just odd ones here and there. but dont you think that lurchers have always taken them,,, maybee they were always expected to take them ,,, after all in in other countrys there lurchers (saluki, sloughi ect ect) were expected to take anything ,,,, so maybee hundreds of years ago lurchers or any sighthound type was expected to take them ,, to pr
  22. as always stan,,, :laugh: :laugh: ,,, rotwieler :laugh: ,, class
  23. :laugh: ,,,,so come on kid give us your opinion,,,,
  24. or where any thread starts with wanting other peoples opinion on a subject,,,,,, they put their own opinion up first,,,
  25. you see my point,,,, you "doubt" but you aint tried,,,, i think most dogs you wouldnt be able to,,,,,,,, but until you TRY you wont know,,,,,, i bet theres a lot of chaps that would be scared to try just in case there dog did stop,,,,,
