  1. I've got that IBS too bird. Irritable b*****d syndrome, it seems to get worse with every passing year.?
  2. Get a greyhound over her but don't tell the Mrs. When the pups arrive just act dumbstruck and mutter something about escapology or an immaculate conception. Worked for me.?
  3. Looks like a Great Dane nipped over the wall too when the bitch was in season.?
  4. I think Nicola Sturgeon will conduct a vote whether she has government permission or not. I think the ' braveheart effect" will swing the Scots into backing independence. What does BJ do then? Appease the Scots by keeping the Barnett formula and giving goodies? Or does he think f**k you and remove the Barnett formula and further punish the Scots for their uppityness?
  5. The heavyweight scene has got really interesting over the last couple of years. Some genuine fights to look forward to and new contenders emerging all the time. We'll never get the seventies scenario again but at least it's more entertaining now than it has been for a generation.
  6. And Scotland. This morning's result has released a seismic change in UK politics. It's going to be interesting.
  7. I don't know mate, maybe some clubs have approached him but he wants to stay put for the moment. Perhaps chairmen think foreign managers have more ability than English managers. Maybe he would only be tempted by an offer from one of the big 5. He's only 42, time is on his side. I think eventually he will have to accept that he's achieved all he possibly can with Bournemouth and he will feel the need to test himself at the next level.
  8. Fair comment, but let's examine his recored. He achieved promotion from the bottom league having being deducted 17 points. He then achieves two further promotions and has established Bournemouth firmly in the premiership. He's had a lot of injuries this season and, I grant you, suffered a run of defeats recently, but I would back him to establish the team in the middle of the table before the end of the season. He's the brightest young manager we have, I'm sure he's destined for bigger things.
  9. I can't believe a big club hasn't snapped up Eddie Howe. His CV/work ethic is out of this world. If Ollie doesn't cut it our place, Howe would be my first choice manager with a five year contract. Eventually old farts are replaced by ambitious young bucks. I think he's not only destined for a big club but also England manager.
  10. Slap on the sun screen factor 50. Gingers are more susceptible to skin cancer.?
  11. Usyk is devastating at cruiserweight. Do you think he is a serious threat to these giant heavyweights?
  12. Presumably you understand what the banjo pluckers are saying then? I bet it's just as much bollocks when it's translated.?
  13. Joe Joyce would quake in his boots if he tangled with these boys.
  14. Sometimes the truth hurts.?
  15. Welcome back wondered where you'd been. Don't always agree but welcome anyway.lol.
  16. Wilf I think the tories conned the british public with austerity packages. No other country bore down on the poor and the disabled like the tories did, meanwhile the rich got a lot richer. In Iceland they imprisoned some of their bankers for their part in the crisis. We let our lot carry on taking the piss. British workers still haven't recovered the same living standards as they had before the banking crisis, no other country is in that state. Corbyn I grant you is a bit of a wanker, but I think he is basically a decent man. Politics isn't a case of black and white. I genuinly believe i
  17. In one of his Spectator columns Johnstone described working class men as "drunk, criminal, aimless, feckless and hopeless and perhaps claiming to suffer from low self esteem because of unemployment'. His arrogance is breathtaking. This is a man who described his £250000 annual fee for writing a weekly column in The Spectator as "chickenfeed". His £145000 cabinet members salary as "inadequate'. When informed that the Confederation of British Industries were terrified at his chaotic brexit plans. He said "f**k business". That's your jobs and small businesses lads! This is a man who was sack
  18. Yes a lot of greyhound blood in those deerhounds.
  19. My head says Joshua. My heart and love of the underdog says Ruiz.
  20. Bill Doherty used to course with his Doxhope deerhounds. I'm sure he stated that some of his dogs could take brown hare. Be interesting to know if he has any footage or photographs.
  21. Competitive coursing is like alcohol, it brings the worst out in some people. People even go apeshit at lurcher shows if the result goes against them. All three are best avoided if they bring out the worst in you.
  22. That all sounds familiar. Unfortunately we once told the bookie our dog wasn't "trying". We ran him behind a mini van on the sands to tire him and fed him loads of tripe. We thought that would slow him down big time. Damn me the bugger won the race! The bookie thought we had double crossed him and was literally after our blood.? Took a lot of diplomacy to get back to normal with him.?
