  1. Trouble is, they don’t breed strikers any more do they mate. I’m probably way off but a the moment I can think of Haaland & Solanke……most others are basically goal scoring wingers. Cole Palmer is a goal scoring 10 from what I can see of it…..so is Kane in reality. See, I have always believed that a proper striker needs to be one horrible b*****d, they would kick a baby out the way to score but academy’s have not been manufacturing those for a long time…..these 8 stone midgets are never strikers, they just ain’t physical enough. Edited to add: Nunez could be but Liv
  2. That’s where I nicked that phrase but it actually fitted quiet nice with what I was trying to convey. He told me that in the POW camp they would steal potato peelings which were well on their way to being rotten out of the kitchen waste heap, I suppose after that, everything’s a rump steak ! Lol
  3. I’m glad you got the joke mate, I was waiting for some stick from someone ! Lol
  4. Necessity I’d imagine does wonders for the menu. My old man would eat things that would make a goat puke but that all came from growing up in a family of 9 in the 20s & 30s and then 5 years in a pow camp in the war……it became almost like a party trick to make everyone scream, but he also knew what mushrooms to pick in fields and stuff like that. But mouldy bread, any type of game or offal or squirrels or anything odd….not a bother, he’s make a meal out of most of it.
  5. The other year we was at the coast and me and kids collected limpets, did them with some garlic butter and sea weed when we got home….very nice they was too
  6. But seeing as boats exist……then?
  7. To be fair, the British isles food culture (including ireland) is f****d…..go to Paris and there’s fishmongers and greengrocers and butchers and all of it looks fantastic. There is a fair movement of people (many of who are English) here now buying places that enable them to feed themselves and doing so…….
  8. With that fin pattern they look like the same family as pike, so same prep.
  9. Well in that case it’s good for my back…..
  10. Life motto……Clothing optional !
  11. This what I don’t understand about the Irish famine, nobody is more than 3 days walk from the sea which incidentally they had to walk to in order to board the boat to Australia or America ?……was fishing banned ?
  12. And you are walking Dusty !……
  13. You’re welcome Denver !……city by the bay !
  14. You wouldn’t believe the absolute dipshits I used to aim out of our lake mate which was always colourful seeing as the ticket was £300…..Carp fishing is an industry and I personally never wanted anything to do with all the bollocks surrounding it. However, when it comes to antis and banning it, we was dealing with antis on the bank nearly 40 years ago when I was a kid…..no mobile phones then so they used to get the shit kicked out of them if they didn’t leave. But fishing just don’t convey the same imagery to the public as a fox torn to pieces by a bull greyhound or a terrier with it
  15. I believe the garfish is of the Mackerel family but people don’t eat them because they are put off by their green bones, they are perfectly edible. As for carp, never tried it but the chinks and Eastern Europeans seem to love them and the reason we have them in the UK is because they were originally the food stuff of monks who kept them for precisely that reason. But I think a lot of it is that people don’t really want to prepare their own food, I was on a fishing trip a few years back in the Atlantic off the Sligo coast. We caught loads of mackerel and pollock but when we got b
  16. Great sentiment but all based on a false premise…… The bit the author is overlooking is that firstly, the two main party’s couldn’t give a flying f**k about the average British bloke, his way of life or what he thinks. Secondly, these Party’s are made up of people who think in exactly the same way as the antis think, who care more about “scare words” and saying a bloke in a wig is a real woman…..they don’t care about the ex miner or shipyard worker, they f***ing loathe him in reality. Why the f**k we, not just as hunting folks but as British folks, keep trying to appeal to peop
  17. I agree on Rashford, that lad needs another club and a fresh start.
  18. Do you think he has the players to defend the space though mate ?…..I don’t think they could cope with the likes of Liverpool or City if they tried that. Given that he obviously don’t want to play low block shite, I think that is all he has in the locker at the minute otherwise they would just get played through ?
  19. I can imagine the conversation “I’ve arranged your stag do……it’s Toxteth !”…….underwhelmed wouldn’t even begin to describe it ! Most lads are out buying silly hats and t-shirts for the event, I bet you was all out getting stab vests and tetanus shots ! Lol
  20. All this talk about replacing Ten Haag mate, I actually think he has is doing an amazing job……he is digging out little results, bringing in young players, playing some entertaining football and all with a toxic mess of a club he inherited and is having to try and put right on the job……I genuinely don’t think he gets enough credit for just what he has done far and is doing there.
  21. Obviously the days before you went a bit up market mate ! Lol
  22. Have you ever been to Toxteth ?……f***ing hell, makes Beruit look like Beverley Hills ! Lol
