    And yet you have been three times on your latest return.

    Seems to me you are incapable of learning and so if you get banned again and you can't come back on you will no longer have the sympathy of the few other users of it who remain. It's obvious you'd seen we thought it was ok for you to come back so did but you're once again blowing it for yourself.

    We don't tend to ban visitors to this board because we're not ****ing children but, for the record, EC is banned becuse he's an utter prick and Ossie is for generally being an illiterate ****wit who we can barely comprehend.
    Drogs and Purley and SW and most of the Chelsea posters are fine, we've got to allow a mixed board and not turn into the insular ****e that is the Liverpool board.

    DL is a cock but he's amusing and so can carry on posting his ridiculous babble so we can laugh at it.


    As can BBF. <ok>

    Well I've got man flu to top off a **** weekend of golf.

    Played Saturday with a hangover, driving was rubbish, putting was better than normal went round on 100, played again yesterday, with the onset of man flu, drove well, played round the course well and putting was shockingly bad.. Pitted for bird twice, ended up with double bogey each time, putted for par four times made double bogey 3 times and only made one par.

    Am going to do lessons , they have a special off with the junior pro, £80 for 6 half hour lessons and 2 9 hole playing lessons.. Going to do it next month.

    Yeah, all fine. Just waiting for the call, which I expected today but it hasn't come yet so in limbo once more.

    Leaves me up here in Hereford so will be going to that Barrels tonight for the match, there's nothing near where i'm staying.



    On topic though, I would definitely recommend a lesson. Or, come up to Hereford and I'll run through a couple of things at the range, THEN if it doesn't feel right have that lesson!! I was too cold and disinterested last week, my heart sunk when I saw the course and that was that.

    It was £7.50's worth though, just.

    Played well Saturday though, two three putts and a bit of poor luck on the last cost me the three shots that the round would have warranted I think, which is always the case. I am playing pretty good though with loads of scope for improvement so am happy with it all. Was till a couple under to the h'cap so not too shabby.

    Another slice of history re written by a supporter of Liverpool FC



    This takes the biscuit though.

    The reason we were banned from Europe was Heysel. Which was caused by supporters of LFC.

    It wasn't Thatcher, although under the circumstances I'm sure she very much agreed to the ban.

    I find the thread that I got this quote from utterly distasteful.

    The only death I would remotely celebrate would be Gerry Adams, and the fact that Thatcher took that hateful piece of ****ing **** on is one of the reasons I can't find it in me to hate her.
    To have a load of men dancing on this woman's yet to be dug grave is sad. Completely ****ing sad.

    Totally agree.. Was arguing on FB all night last night with one of my mates about her.

    My opinion is those who hate her come from illiterate uneducated back grounds whose parents blamed her for their jobs going down this ****ter as quite clearly the government should be responsible for propping up badly performing car industry making inferior products at a loss whilst also spunking tax money on propping up inefficient loss making coal mines. Just to keep unions happy who essentially ran the country.

    My opinion she was a legend. I found it massively distasteful celebrating someone dying of a stroke. My grandmother was a ****ing nazi for fu ck sake, she also died of a stroke, cause for celebration?? I don't ****ing think so. ****s.

    As to blaming her for clubs being banned from Europe. Words fail me..


    Didn't see your previous post re golf. Wouldn't mind a trip to the range with you. Though will do lessons starting next month.

    There were a few people rallying to go to one of the celebrations on FB last night. One mate of mine, I know him to be a big old school labour supporter and Thatcher hater, 'shouting out' to go to one in Bristol.

    Predictably enough it ended up in a mini riot, no doubt perpetrated by people who would die at the thought of going down a mine to graft. Probably at the thought of any work, the ****s.

    Then there was the party in Glasgow, as shown on the BBC. Bunch of student ****ers celebrating the death of a woman they know absolutely **** all about, let alone a women who had any impact whatsoever on them. At all.
    They were in Glasgow of course, where they still get free educaton paid for by the taxes of the massive English population, unlike their English University counterparts who now have to pay through the nose for their education.
    Did the Thatcher government impart these charges on them I wonder? No, did it ****, there were grants in those days, students were effectively given money to go to University.

    She did plenty bad and plenty good, which would sum up most governments and prime ministers I would suggest. The country was on its knees under labour before she tookover, completely and utterly ****ed.
    But we'll forget that shall we, let's all have a party instead.



    As for golf, I woud be more than happy to show you grip, stance, set up, swing take off/plane etc. etc but only before a lesson. Once you have a lesson you have to do only that, any further messing would **** things up really.

    There was a really good article on the pool board about thatcher, written by a Geordie. They've deleted it.

    As to golf, what you proposing?? Range here a few pints and crash here?

    This. Britain had been going down the toilet for decades before Thatcher came to power. We got bailed out by the ****ing IMF in the 1970s. Yeah, everything was rosy in a country with the same fiscal stability as Greece and Mexico.

    She did what any sensible person would do and killed off the underperforming industries rather than try and keep propping them up with public money. Almost ironic how they rail at how hated she was and how she destroyed the country whilst ignoring the fact she was comfortably elected three times.

    Pointless trying to argue with them tho' - like trying to debate the merits of the free market with the Communist Party - they'll shoot you before they try and listen to what you have to say. Even I'm not wasting my breath on them.

    Yeah, certainly. Bit unsure of my whereabouts though, I'm pushing to go into hospital this week as next week I've got a Belfry trip I won't miss. As such, could be a couple of weeks.

    There's a bad situation abound, could be in the ossie this weekend and it's the ****ing masters!!! Will have to wrestle the other inmates for the remote control.


    Swarbs, I won't contribute to that thread either as I would not be able to bite my tongue and so would be banned once more. I don't agree with a lot of what Thatcher did, or more how she went about it, but I do on many fronts.

    Anything other than a celebration of her death would not be acceptable though.

    My mate and his mate are a pair of pot smoking conspiracy theorists.

    They tear apart everything and how it's all wrong then offer up no explanation of how it should have been different. They're forever moaning about the banking sector, the way the world is based on debt. Yet think thatcher got it wrong by not helping manufacturing? They moan about corporations and conglomerates yet sit their with their Japanese phones, Apple Macs pc's with windows on. Cars on finance houses bought with mortgages. Watching Japanese tv's. ****s.. I'm now being told my arguements are hominem and I should be ashamed.

    We are having a short break in Valencia. Glad to have escaped the Thatcher hysteria for a few days. Unemployment is high here but the people want to work, they'd probably welcome a few Thatcher policies unlike the work shy wannabe freeloaders who celebrated her death (actually it was probably their children at the parties last night, brought up on half truths about how they aren't living in the lap of luxury because she encouraged people to work for a living instead of sponging an existence).

    Weather's nice.

    Gotta love the irony of people looting at a street party full of people who claim Thatcher was wrong.

    "I think we have gone through a period when too many children and people have been given to understand "I have a problem, it is the Government's job to cope with it!" or "I have a problem, I will go and get a grant to cope with it!". You can add a new one to that: "I don't have something I want, I will go and nick it".

    The biggest irony is most of them are useless wasters who weren't even around when Thatcher was in power. Just like the last set of riots, they see a chance to cause trouble and steal stuff and jump on the bandwagon. Worthless tossers.

    Totally, utterly and completely wrong. Never over-generalise.
