It really is deeply saddening to read this final post. I'd very much like to believe that all shall be well, but I fear your new blog will be a short-lived and ultimately disappointing venture, if not something worse besides: the crown always lies heaviest when the king is much beloved. From this point forth there will be no separation between you and them, and one day you may well need to reclaim your own self from the spite. Your 'friends' will turn foe with time. It has already become a vehicle for telling a good Queen to #$*% off while spouting forth all the libel and abuse for which the BBC would not stand, and all this just because an imbecile can. People such as these were not meant to be free of restraint, as the decay in our society daily shows.
You may remember, some while before the lines became crowded with all the Blogdigtommies and Spitbiles, that in defence of an unjust attack, I suggested you were the last of England, and that getting rid of people like you meant we'd all soon be living in a world filled with the very man who has now been turned scapegoat for your departure. But unlike so many others since who have come to comment in what can only be described as a spiteful and scurrilous manner, I actually sat down and took the trouble to read his columns with care. What struck me was that despite being offended by his stylistic attempts, I could see that there was some gentlemanliness within the man himself. He stood up for what was right, even though he himself may have lacked the talent to make it ring true. I stepped aside from further comment, understanding that he had his own loyal audience who appreciated him on his own terms. That also ought to have been enough for this motley band of followers; had each remained to their own side, all might yet be well.
Howaaaaaaaaay robbo! Nice to see you ain't given up on the blogging! F*** aunty beeb! The independant blogger holds the future!
Looking forward to reading all your thoughts on ere! Bring on the WC and the 10/11 season! No way is Arsenal going to go 6 years wivout a trophy! C'mon the aaaaaaaaaaaarse!
If you insist on doing something like this, at least have the decency and courtesy to do it properly.

The least you could do is be thankful that here you will be able to carry on your hate mongering on this blog, if you chose to do so, without the do-gooders and standard-bearers over at your imperialist BBC.
It saddens me to say that your loyal audience has almost assuredly cost you your position here. They always went too far. They took delight in enticing and bearbaiting the mods with vitriol and nonsense, and even people such as myself, who empathised with their feelings on this point, could scarcely withstand the foul and all too cowardly method of their attacks. It was base and vile, played out like a game by a gang of ne'er-do-wells with far too much time on their hands and rather too little wit to use it wisely. Each and every one bears a chip on his shoulder, and each and every one views the world through a contorted lens. They cannot be honest with themselves, and this will prove a considerable problem for you with time. Your wit is beyond theirs, but their hatred is equal to the very worst our day has to offer. Even the reigning 'intellectual' of the bunch, a person who unashamedly uses your blog as a stepping stone into his own, posts entries that look like a demented cat had a fit all over the keyboard; to many he represents all that's wrong with modern education in that even a person with a degree in history simply cannot write. And always there's a person who has to be hated, and whether it's JDR or McNulty or even me, they have to condemn without once opening their ears to the truths they'll never be able to face. Without a common enemy, this abject state of perpetual discontent will eventually find its way to you. There's no other possible conclusion.
Their pictures now show us what a bunch of gormless little drips we've been dealing with all along, but regrettably, their contribution to this blog's demise has already been stamped and sealed for all the Robboless days to come. The BBC, its Chief Football Writer and even the mods had no choice left to them, and I regret now that I wasn't bright enough to heed Chris Charles's pleas earlier in the year. We all should have read the warning signs sooner. And so it is that these miserable little men, who cause so many to pick up and leave their broken country behind, have now put paid to one of the few genuinely truehearted voices that remain.
I'm forced to wend a way through manuscripts each and every day, which provides fair means of assessing what is and isn't readable. When at your best, your wit was sublime, while your similes are as acute and deftly-weighted as any modern author could hope to strike. In this area you're simply without comparison. You're better than the swallowing rabble: don't lose your voice to the deafening nonsense of their pain; if you do, you'll never get it back. And your voice is too precious to be lost in the depths of theirs.
Good luck, Robbo, but always watch their approach with caution. ___________________________
"Some of the other humorous elements of this site - Derek 'Robbo' Robson's blog, the Review of the Week blog and Quotes of the Week - will not be returning, as we continue to keep reviewing our editorial output."
So Cow is going to continue with his drivel on here... well done cow, we need someone to unite us against a common foe else we may turn on each other after a while.
How come you have secreted your profile sunshine, do you have things to hide?
Gaz - your mate just crticised my use of the English language - he directly criticised me - Im gutted - the thing is I was correct and he was a cock???
my guess is that Mexico are adept at keeping and passing the ball...playing it arsenal/barc/spain stylee... England just can't compete with that and rely on nicking a goal...
England's defence is shit... Milner is not a holding midfielder... and if England come up against a lot of teams of Mexico's height they will score from set pieces. Mexico should be in front, only through Green has England managed to maintain a lead.. utter shit.
I think I've solved our team's problems ... play our defenders as strikers and play our strikers as defenders .... we'll even have a use for Heskey's 'presence' then.
So according to the chief naysayers it was all our fault that Robbo got canned.
Anyone else like to point out to them that if the comments were the problem then the Beeb could have simply went pre-mod like McNumpty's attempt at writing.
I can't really be arsed arguing with them any more. Although I would like to meet Andre face to face to have a word.
Rooney doesnt look his usual self - at least we are playing better 2nd half - and Gaz violence never solved anything - flowerrs and chocolates maybe maybe not
Followingborohurts said... and Gaz violence never solved anything - flowerrs and chocolates maybe maybe not ------------------------------
Flowers and chocolates aren't the answer FBH. it's very difficult to batter someone with flowers. Go for half a brick or a baseball bat Gaz. Much more effective.
I hope Cashley doesn't get injured cause Baines aint no substitute at left back.. Gerrard must be fucking Capello 'cause the way he has been playing, it is the only logical reason he is still in the squad. On tonight's effort, Milner wont go to SA... as for the team performance, I repeat it was shit... 3-1 was very flattering.
Fair enough mate... I haven't bothered going back there... don't have mods here anyway... just hope some of the wankers come over... I see we have one joined up so far (coweslepe that is)
My oh my what language gentlemen! I will hold fire with my post-Beeb analysis, although if you catch me commenting after midnight, I can't be quite so refined.
That's what freedom of speech is all about Col... providing nobody is inciting violence, anyone can say what they like as far as I am concerned... providing they are prepared to accept criticism or worse from others.
With you on that one Bo. I was surprised by how many people defended Cow's rant over on the FBBC earlier. Think the mods were a bit over zealous in their last days in the job.
I appreciate the folk here for that Col... they do tend to defend anyone's right to speak. The mods at BBC went too far... The power that was invested in them went to their heads methinks.
Evening Trott. It's good here over on the darkside. You can call Thierry Henry a cheating weasel. You can even call GNev a cunt. Contrary to what you may have heard, the FBBC have not killed it and freedom of speech is alive and well.
I actually thought Walcott had a pretty decent game. He and Johnson were linking up brilliantly on the right side with plenty pace, causing their defence all sorts of bother.
Gerrard was below par i.e. his usual self in an England shirt. Capo shoul give him a rest and play Lamps behind the 2 front men.
Adam Johnson and A. Cole on the left will be brilliant as well.
11-30pm and the Mods are still awake and at work over on the FBBC. Shame they don't get their arses over to the sports editors blog and start going through the comments there so they can be published.
Of course the mods are awake Colch, since when have robotic overloards of doom ever needed sleep?
Oh and to agree with others, please try and persuade Andre over here. It'll be fucking hilarious when we take him down the pegs needed that the Beebs filters wouldn't allow us to do previously >:D
Just seen Andre's post on the Beeb version: "Niall, now is your chance to leave 'Robbo' behind and actually move on with your life. You have an excellent chance for some personal growth. Don't throw it away."
If anyone, and Robbo this goes for you too, needs some personal growth I've got a few emails I can forward onto you.
As an ex-lurker, i can say that being part of this crazy blog is even better than just reading it.
Its at its best when there are new posters, so stick around and enjoy.
Right thats the pleasantries out of the way. Which football team support and why the fuck do you hate Gary Neville, John Terry, Cashley & the Pet Shop Boys so much?

Look forward to JDR on the new blog and bye bye to AndreX
Does change of editorial direction mean that nothing funny is allowed and just WHO IS actually the BBC Sports editor. Has Mihir (I'm not a proper journalist) Bose reappeared to wreak veangance on those who got him sacked
Star, I walk around with my eyes closed most of the time... he was here while I was here but I never read any of his blogs... like I don't read any of mcnulty's. I occassionally read other blogs if the title take me fancy.
Robbo, I came up with a solution to our woes last night.
Play our defenders as strikers as King and Johnson can score some good goals and put some of our strikers as defenders.
Crouch's height would come in handy (as he demonstrated for Spurs with dealing with Delap's throw ins) and we'd even finally have a use for Heskey's 'Presence.'
Bo,I've never understood the stick England managers have been given over the years.We aren't a very good side.Never have been.I think 3 1/4 finals on the trot for Erikson was a very good achievement.Mind you,I don't believe anything our press write to hype them up...
seems a few of the robbo haters really just hated us... cool. That Andre what a cunt, thiers an advert for birth control right thier...
Cows, i think your a good guy, don't agree with you but you stand by your word and i can understand why you have your reasons for saying it... keep on keeping on hombre.

I'm guessing the fact I've changed my name back to something deliberately offensive six times now to spite the mods hasn't helped matters over there ...
As LABS menioned on teh goverment run site, any of yous see the darts last night, i never watched, firstly i never like to see an old mate doing well for himself, and secondly coz i aint got sky sports...
But taylor... fucking hell that chubbt bastard can throw some arrers...
I got Virgin Media and i got the big package, which has ESPN, which is good... couple of prem matches, and espn classic which are showing some great world cup matches at present... but i also just found out by accident that Liverpool tv is included... what a load of old shit that is!
Taylor man... wow... felt a bit sorry for wadey, but still proud of the lad...
Yeah i flicked through and i usualy just skim past LFC TV and dont really notice... but it turns out that its included... they gave JOhn Barnes his own show... its exactly as good as you would expect it to be...

Yesterday afternoon, after reading the last blog and posting what I’d thought would be a final comment, I cancelled the BBC account and was on the point of setting the whole Robbo thing aside. Then I received the notice that the post had been moderated, which in turn brought me back to the blog and the comments that followed.
Now the hijackers here haven’t quite picked up on this yet as they simply choose to ignore, mock and spew against the numerous comments posted against them, but if Robbo’s going to make this a successful venture, then those of us who aren’t cut from your particular cloth are going to need to stay around. It’s that simple. There needs to be balance. Robbo’s been ousted from a good job, and despite the fresh impetus that comes with striking out on your own, this has to be a difficult time for him. You can feel it in his responses. As our whole point here is, or at least should be, to support the freedom of speech that he’s championed for so long, we should all get behind him by not simply dousing hatred all over one another. It has to be this way, otherwise people like JDR, Andre and myself simply won’t bother dropping in, which means, in time, the blog would peter out and fail. This isn’t cowardice on our part: it’s merely a question of not allowing our own voice to be twisted and abused by prejudice and stupidity. My hope is that those who feel as I do will give the new blog a sporting chance, not just as silent observers (called ‘lurkers’ here), but as active contributors and supporters.
This obviously isn’t going to work with everyone. But for those ‘regulars’ who can think and see, I’m going to clarify my own feelings here as they’ve been deliberately skewed by Blog and Co.; take it for what you will, but I’d hardly be ‘hiding’ or falsifying here, now would I? This will not read kindly, but the intention is only to prevent the repetition of a lie. In essence, I’m doing what has been asked of me for the sake of preventing others from continuing on with accusations and bile in my name, as let’s face it, even my silence doesn’t do anything to shut them up. So please, let’s get this over with now such that all the ‘right wing’ epithets are placed into proper context. Say what you will and attack where you see fit, that’s all fair enough, but don’t turn me into something I’m not and then proceed with hateful comments based upon the wilful misreading. That’s all I ask. Starfire’s morning spew in the BBC blog should give you an idea as to why it was brought to an end; this simply can’t happen here or there won’t be a blog at all. It’s funny, but this is what is technically termed fascistic behaviour, and as always it would seem, it comes from one who can’t even spell it properly (‘faschist’). Hopefully, what follows will be enough, and afterwards we can get back to the football. This will be a memorable World Cup, and having had Robbo around for so long, it’s hard to imagine some of the banality it will no doubt contain without him enabling us to find the laughter inside it all.
I’m not a racist, nor am I in any way connected to the right wing of our society. The only politician I’ve ever admired is Al Gore; I wept when George W. became President. I have a problem with one extreme branch of one particular group of people, and not with the people themselves. My point, moderated several times, was that I hated to see our troops being abused when returning from duties abroad. Whether we agree with the battles they’re fighting or not should be entirely irrelevant. They put their lives on the line for us and ought to be afforded due respect. I feel the same way when I see our police and firemen being mistreated. It’s a question of decency not race. This is England. This is our home. Those who come here, as with America and Canada, should treat it as their home and respect that home. Our country is not respected, and the litter in every corner of every street and wood should tell you that. Other countries are not the same; other countries do not tolerate such contempt from within. It doesn’t serve any society to have an undercurrent of hatred festering just beneath the surface. My thoughts aren’t based on colour and never have been. Blog and Co. insist I’m being insiduous or deceptive and not saying what I really mean, but that’s simply untrue: I don’t say these things because I don’t feel them in any way. We have a problem in this country and we already have far too many people living here. It’s not that I have hatred for those wishing to move here, regardless of their race, I just love my country more. It really is that simple. There isn’t any other secret agenda.
And now to those who spew the bile. Adampsb is the easiest one to deal with. This one actually went so far as to call me a ‘homophobe’, even though I’d never said a word on or relating to the subject. Obviously, this thorny subject is one of his pet concerns, the reason for which might well be apparent to regular readers. For my part, as virtually all of my artistic interests begin and end with gay men, I couldn’t very well be thrown into the homophobe category. But that’s beside the point. As I’ve recently been forced to make a temporary move to the smoggiest, nastiest dirthole in England, perhaps you and I should meet. This isn’t a challenge, but rather a simple means of giving you the opportunity to say what you need to say; personally, I’d prefer you to say these things straight to my face. We can meet in any public place. You can be the man you need to be, and I’ll give you a crystal clear explanation as to why your degree isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on. Again, this is the gentlemanly way of doing things; if you don’t accept, then have the strength of character to shut up from this point forth.
The others fall more or less rather tidily into the useless idiot with too much time on their hands category. But there’s one who stands out, and due to this person’s unrelenting attacks against me and all the bitterness and bile those attacks contain, all sense of civility is necessarily set aside.
Blog will never leave the minepit in his mind. Comments like ‘sinister and creepy’ are borne of fear, the fear of a proper education, the fear of someone, anyone, being ‘better’ than him. I’m in a position to look into the psychology behind words. This man is as utterly transparent as any I’ve ever encountered. I explain myself having been misrepresented by others, but this person’s need to share every detail of his life reads like a constant cry for help. This person is dangerous. Very likely conceived as one, he’s lived his entire life as a drunken mistake. He’s one of the errors in life. This isn’t the type of person even the worst of you would wish to have a drink with in a pub. He feels his inadequacy in everything he is and everything he does. And so he gives us a daily barrage of how he feels about the world. He even goes so far as to insult the Queen and berate Cameron constantly before the man even has a chance to warm his ass in the chair. He spits upon ‘Oxbridge’ for no other reason than he was never bright enough to attend himself. He doesn’t give anyone a chance because he never really had a chance himself. He grew up in an environment where nothing was ever right, everyone else was always to blame, criticism was constantly being directed at every person and every single thing in front of him, and a constant stream of physical and mental abuse no doubt began every morning and sealed his eyes at night. And so in turn he himself must criticise everything before him, and if he’s unable to place a person in one of those pre-designed bins of understanding, he forces them inside anyway like the petulant little thug he is and will always be. Anything beyond his comprehension is ‘right-wing psychodrama’, even though he’s far too thick to know what it means. Had he any wit at all, he’d realise that he himself is everything he supposedly hates. Just because you vote labour and spout the party’s worth at every opportunity, doesn’t mean to say you’re not the worst type of fascist.
Now this redresses the imblance. It should end here. You’ve said your part in bursts and insults over the past several months, and now you’ve had your full response. For heaven’s sake, have the guts to leave it there. You will not win a battle with me.
As so many of you have pointed out, we can say whatever we want here, but that doesn’t mean we always should. There are some people who just don’t fit. If there are attacks, as there have been in the past, then the likely responses are going to hurt us all. Robbo can’t keep this blog running without our help. He’ll need to get sponsors to help meet the basic costs in time, and aside from those offering remedies for erectile dysfunction, it’s hard to see any wishing to be associated with us under the present set of circumstances. There’s a reason why a blog with so many views has been cancelled: please, understand this reason before it’s too late. Banter will always be healthy if our differences are respected; this blog shouldn’t be reduced to a desperate chatroom for a select few who have nowhere else to go. I wouldn’t want to see this venture fail, but it’s going to be impossible to sustain without everyone’s full support. For the good of us all, try to bear this in mind.
Ta Cow... quite right that we need a bit of Blog-tension to keep this boat floating. And if we keep it in the spirit of feverish disagreement rather than name-calling I'd be more than happy. In the meantime, those of us that have had even the mention of the word dung edited out of their contribution can delight in the cheerful use of the occasional expletive till the novlety wears off.
Wait a mo. Cow, you've managed to post up some more critical analysis here of other posters and while you've got the absolute right to stand up for what you believe, the value of your contributions are going to be undermined if you continue to indulge in character assassination. Let's try and keep the subject on footy, eh? Otherwise your fear that this blog will rapidly dwindle in the glare of petty name-calling and back-patting will come true.
Oh and - this blog is meant to be fun... you know light-hearted...
Cows, mate... part of me wants to agree with you and another wants to disagree with you... i am by no means intelligent, i have a national diploma in music technology and bad GCSEs, i belive that life is too fucking short to get involved in any sort of serious politial debate and the errors of the past should be left thier. But i live in the heart of this shitty england you hate, and thier are flowers growing out of the shit mate i promise you... but thier is also a lot of shit...
anyway, fairdoes for coming on here and standing up for your self... one small thing, you said that firefighters should be resepcted, you may wanna look into Blogs day jobmate, haha...
and if you want the inside scoop on life in shitty england, peep this mi amigo... comicaly tragic...

--------------------------------------
As usual you are off your trolley. I called you a homophobe as you seemed at the time to have a problem with gay artists (possibly they said you were ugly and wouldn't go out with you) my user name. It ain't PSB for nothing.
As for Blog not leaving the minepit and spitting on Oxbridge you may not have realised it but he is an exaggerated character as was Winston Carruthers and Konnolsky. For all yo u kno wBlogdignag could actually be an Oxford graduate but chooses to mock it due to his experience there. My own comments are a deliberate parody as a right-wing 80's music liking United fan. Even JDR is unlikely to really be as pedantic as he pretends to be (and unlike yourself actually became reasonably likeable)
If Al Gore and his Inconvenient Truth (the main one being that he made up half of his research) then that says everything about what sort of person you are, dealing in half-truths and whispering campaigns.
You are a bitter twisted person whose soul is as empty as Shylocks
Cheers Cowes ... wouldn't have gone on my little tirade if the Mods hadn't been so heavy handed in the first place.
Action, reaction and so on ... fact of the matter is the mods are a useless lot who can't take a little criticism, can't work out what 'Defamatory' means and if they and the BBC are going to get rid of the few things I enjoy, then I as a license fee payer am going to protest in a variety of ways as I am entitled to do so.
i liked Shylock, that man got fleeced by them lousy crackers... they treated him like cack, he got a chance for fair revenge, after they needed his help... them they stiffed him on a technicaltity... antisemetic cack...

Just like to assure you all that i am an ignorant cunt in real life as well, it aint a character, i've always been meself, a cunt...
Ah well, could be worse I suppose, he could have called me Catholic ... I'd have been really offended if he likened me to them and not just dick'eads like Nick Griffin and co ....

That also ought to have been enough for this motley band of followers; had each remained to their own side, all might yet be well.
It saddens me . . .

Is that you H2? Or are there 2 Arsenal fans in Holland?
It saddens us all Cow. To read the absolute drivel you write.
ReplyDeleteCow, you peace of shit!
ReplyDeleteI did try to post your drivel in its entirety.
The least you could do is be thankful that here you will be able to carry on your hate mongering on this blog, if you chose to do so, without the do-gooders and standard-bearers over at your imperialist BBC.
This is great, without the Beeb weasels to protect him we can tell Cowpoop how much of a wanker we think he is :D
ReplyDeleteIt saddens me to say that your loyal audience has almost assuredly cost you your position here. They always went too far. They took delight in enticing and bearbaiting the mods with vitriol and nonsense, and even people such as myself, who empathised with their feelings on this point, could scarcely withstand the foul and all too cowardly method of their attacks. It was base and vile, played out like a game by a gang of ne'er-do-wells with far too much time on their hands and rather too little wit to use it wisely. Each and every one bears a chip on his shoulder, and each and every one views the world through a contorted lens. They cannot be honest with themselves, and this will prove a considerable problem for you with time. Your wit is beyond theirs, but their hatred is equal to the very worst our day has to offer. Even the reigning 'intellectual' of the bunch, a person who unashamedly uses your blog as a stepping stone into his own, posts entries that look like a demented cat had a fit all over the keyboard; to many he represents all that's wrong with modern education in that even a person with a degree in history simply cannot write. And always there's a person who has to be hated, and whether it's JDR or McNulty or even me, they have to condemn without once opening their ears to the truths they'll never be able to face. Without a common enemy, this abject state of perpetual discontent will eventually find its way to you. There's no other possible conclusion.
ReplyDeleteTheir pictures now show us what a bunch of gormless little drips we've been dealing with all along, but regrettably, their contribution to this blog's demise has already been stamped and sealed for all the Robboless days to come. The BBC, its Chief Football Writer and even the mods had no choice left to them, and I regret now that I wasn't bright enough to heed Chris Charles's pleas earlier in the year. We all should have read the warning signs sooner. And so it is that these miserable little men, who cause so many to pick up and leave their broken country behind, have now put paid to one of the few genuinely truehearted voices that remain.
I'm forced to wend a way through manuscripts each and every day, which provides fair means of assessing what is and isn't readable. When at your best, your wit was sublime, while your similes are as acute and deftly-weighted as any modern author could hope to strike. In this area you're simply without comparison. You're better than the swallowing rabble: don't lose your voice to the deafening nonsense of their pain; if you do, you'll never get it back. And your voice is too precious to be lost in the depths of theirs.
Good luck, Robbo, but always watch their approach with caution.

Evening Star, come and join in my new game on Robbo's FBBC blog
ReplyDeleteFuck me Robbo !!!!, put the little cartoon fella back up, your frightening me kids !!!

Hmmmmmm, Maybe this chap can explain exactly why Robbo and Chris Charles were axed!!!!
Get on the link and ask questions - I know its too late but lets -
ReplyDeleteFIGHT
G'day all.
ReplyDeleteSo Cow is going to continue with his drivel on here... well done cow, we need someone to unite us against a common foe else we may turn on each other after a while.
How come you have secreted your profile sunshine, do you have things to hide?
FBH, I imagine with your new conservative government all humour will be banned in England sooner rather than later.
ReplyDeleteIve got a bad feeling about tonight's game - injuries wise.....
ReplyDeleteAndre has showed up for one last hurrah on the other blog.
ReplyDeleteAnyone think he'll come here?
Can I make it my xmas present that he does.
Hey Robbo, at least here I'm not gonna be pre-modded. Or is that so? If then, fuck the MODS!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood evening guys!!
Who is andre Gaz.. he's new to me.
ReplyDeleteJDR just turned up - and that Andre - odious twat - but entitled to be such???
ReplyDeleteBo - he is a wum on Beeb version mate
ReplyDeleteI see the Plank called Chiles is fronting the ITV show
ReplyDeleteGood news - JDR Said
ReplyDeleteCuriosity will probably get the better of me and I may drop in and see what changes and improvements you decide to initiate
Wow, even JDR has some nice things to say about the last blog.
ReplyDeleteRIP Lord Charles and Ray Alan
ReplyDeleteWTF?!?! JDR's opus got referred.
ReplyDeletePoor guy was actually being nice, though he was slagging McCunty off.
Thou shalt not call McNumpty a cunty.
ReplyDeletePlease do everything in your power to get Andre over here.
ReplyDeleteHe really really hates me.
You're right, of course Gaz. He is plainly a plain cunt. :P
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking Zoot is preparing an epic to go out in a blaze of glory with.
ReplyDeleteHehe I've noticed Gaz.
ReplyDeleteGaz - your mate just crticised my use of the English language - he directly criticised me - Im gutted - the thing is I was correct and he was a cock???
ReplyDeleteErm, did anyone tell Mayes the Beeb can track IP addresses before he went on about dodging the license fee?
ReplyDeleteHey on telly - how did they make sure the people in the red area of the flag wore red and the whtie area wore white -= clever - v clever!!
ReplyDeletehehe, I finally did it ... I called henry, Terry and Griffin a bunch of dirty, thieving cheating weasels and got away with it ... and with premod.
ReplyDeleteI listed them in 132 and then referred back to it a few comments later with my insults and slander ....
ReplyDeleteI WIN!!!!!!!!!111!
Star - your work over there is nearly done!!! I salute your indefiufhbitly whaterver
ReplyDeleteOnce the premod's off FBH they won't know what's hit them.
ReplyDeleteCROOOUUUCCCHHHHHHH!!!
ReplyDeleteThis lad green looking good
But so are the Mexicans - hoppe that they arent in WC
Are Spurs gunna win the WC?
ReplyDeleteBout time they won something ;)
ReplyDeleteI think Spurs had more different names on the team's score sheet than anyone else last season.
Walcott looks quick - but thats about it really
ReplyDeletenot much mention of the Engerland match..i haven't been watching, is it really as dull as it sounds...?
ReplyDeletewibble
And it's 2-1 ...boo! England are shit! etc.
ReplyDeleteWalcott's always been quick FBH, not much point though if he can't do anything with it.
ReplyDeleteBit like saying you have a 12 inch dick but suffer from premature ejaculation really.
heyyy..how did you know.....
ReplyDeletehttp://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/sporteditors/2010/05/from_swindon_town_to_cape_town.html
ReplyDeleteDont forget to ask questions lads
my guess is that Mexico are adept at keeping and passing the ball...playing it arsenal/barc/spain stylee...
ReplyDeleteEngland just can't compete with that and rely on nicking a goal...
we're all doooomed
England's defence is shit... Milner is not a holding midfielder... and if England come up against a lot of teams of Mexico's height they will score from set pieces. Mexico should be in front, only through Green has England managed to maintain a lead.. utter shit.
ReplyDeleteBit of a reality check - we dont like pace or the ball on the deck - daft eh

ReplyDeleteBit of a reality check - we dont like pace or the ball on the deck - daft eh
------------------------------
Why would you, when the deck is as shit as it is at Wembley? they'd be better off playing at Central Park at Sittingbourne for fuck's sake.
Walcotts pace has given them trouble FBH... Where are King and Ferdinand... and Milner and Carrick may as well not be there.
ReplyDeleteI like King but got causght out of position and overcommitted at least once
ReplyDeleteNice one Jonno
ReplyDeleteI think I've solved our team's problems ... play our defenders as strikers and play our strikers as defenders .... we'll even have a use for Heskey's 'presence' then.
ReplyDeletemy stream has lost its signal. no idea what is happening now.
ReplyDelete3 1 now Bo - Johnson blidner - cut in from the right win and shot from outside the box into top left corner from his left foot - v good goal
ReplyDeleteI caught that goal thanks FBH... was a goodun too... I'll try to pick up another stream.
ReplyDeleteSo according to the chief naysayers it was all our fault that Robbo got canned.
ReplyDeleteAnyone else like to point out to them that if the comments were the problem then the Beeb could have simply went pre-mod like McNumpty's attempt at writing.
I can't really be arsed arguing with them any more. Although I would like to meet Andre face to face to have a word.
Rooney doesnt look his usual self - at least we are playing better 2nd half - and Gaz violence never solved anything - flowerrs and chocolates maybe maybe not
ReplyDeleteFollowingborohurts said...
ReplyDeleteand Gaz violence never solved anything - flowerrs and chocolates maybe maybe not
------------------------------
Flowers and chocolates aren't the answer FBH. it's very difficult to batter someone with flowers. Go for half a brick or a baseball bat Gaz. Much more effective.
I've never punched anyone in my life. I've always thought violence never solved anything.
ReplyDeleteBut for Andre...
That was the most expensive substitution ever - cost Citeh 1million
ReplyDeleteLewis
ReplyDeleteThe turnaround time on your bbc blog is painfully slow - hwy have you sacked Robbo Robson?
Many thanks in anticipation of your reply.
Sent the abiove to
http://en-gb.facebook.com/lewis.wiltshire
I hope Cashley doesn't get injured cause Baines aint no substitute at left back.. Gerrard must be fucking Capello 'cause the way he has been playing, it is the only logical reason he is still in the squad. On tonight's effort, Milner wont go to SA... as for the team performance, I repeat it was shit... 3-1 was very flattering.
ReplyDeleteHey Col, is that you... got started on the fosters early mate... you type well fer yer age too.
ReplyDeleteThat Lewis blog is worse than mcnulty's.. I posted a comment on there at 7.51 and it is still awaiting moderation.
ReplyDeleteNormally get started on the Fosters around 11am and finish around midnight and I still type better than FBH.
ReplyDeleteThere are certain letters that FBH takes offence at, he tends to leave them out every now and then.
ReplyDeletelol
ReplyDelete(twats)
I saw you got modded over on the FBBC earlier Bo. What did you say?
ReplyDeleteWhere is FBBC Col... lol
ReplyDeleteThe Fucking BBC Bo. From the day they announced Robbo and CC were getting punted I am refusing to refer to them as anything else.
ReplyDeleteOK found it... no idea why they modded it Col... this is what I posted.
ReplyDeleteMy Last Post
Good luck Robbo... we'll all be waiting for you at the new blog mate.
I've been waiting for Star's last effort but he has either been banned or he just couldn't be bothered trying to outwit the mod w a n k e r s anymore.
Type to the regulars at the other blog... bye BBC.
maybe they don't like wankers mate... they are not alone there though are they.
Fair enough mate... I haven't bothered going back there... don't have mods here anyway... just hope some of the wankers come over... I see we have one joined up so far (coweslepe that is)
ReplyDeleteMy oh my what language gentlemen! I will hold fire with my post-Beeb analysis, although if you catch me commenting after midnight, I can't be quite so refined.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure I saw JDR on here the other day as well. Should make for some lively debate if there are no mods to keep things civil.
ReplyDeleteRobbo please reply to Andre on the Beeb blog and try to get him over here
ReplyDeleteIt'll be fun!!
Just been over to the sports editors blog. there are posts from 3 hours ago that still haven't been modded.
ReplyDeleteThat's what freedom of speech is all about Col... providing nobody is inciting violence, anyone can say what they like as far as I am concerned... providing they are prepared to accept criticism or worse from others.
ReplyDeleteWith you on that one Bo. I was surprised by how many people defended Cow's rant over on the FBBC earlier. Think the mods were a bit over zealous in their last days in the job.
ReplyDeleteBloody Hell, have you all moved in already?
ReplyDeleteEngland looking good eh, another 8 jammy 3-1 wins and we'll be World Cup Winners again!
I appreciate the folk here for that Col... they do tend to defend anyone's right to speak. The mods at BBC went too far... The power that was invested in them went to their heads methinks.
ReplyDeleteAll we need is to have to play 8 teams who's average height is 5'2" and get half a dozen corners a match and we are certainties Trott.
ReplyDeleteEvening Trott. It's good here over on the darkside. You can call Thierry Henry a cheating weasel. You can even call GNev a cunt. Contrary to what you may have heard, the FBBC have not killed it and freedom of speech is alive and well.
ReplyDeleteNow then, lads, all the stuff out of boxes?
ReplyDeleteAnd admit it, who broke the vase?
I cannot tell a lie Spit, it wasn't me.
ReplyDeleteYo Bo, so, we just need to play Korea (North and South), Mexico, Japan, China, Paraguay, Vietnam and Denmark under 11's in the final. Easy.
ReplyDeleteColch, I tell my Kids that I'm all in favour of that freedom of speech until we disagree and then they can furgeddaboutit.
And for fuck sake, put the empty beer bottles aside....
ReplyDeleteJeeeeeeeeeezz. this place needs a house keeper.
Thats what you get when you bring a bunch of footy fans to help you move.
Now where's the carton with me pants?
You got it Trott... if we come up against a side with height though, we are fucked mate, no doubt about it.
ReplyDeleteI travel light Spit, the transition was easy fer me.

Wait. was Arsenal pülaying tonight?
how did I miss it?
Spit it may well have been Arsenal... only thing missing was the passing.
ReplyDeleteSo England are like Arsenal without the passing.
ReplyDeleteNow there's a confidence inspiring vision before a WC if there ever was.
Wait. was Arsenal playing tonight?
ReplyDeletehow did I miss it?
____________
Same way everyone misses Arsenal playing...
They're usually asleep after 15 minutes
Arsenal without the passing...
ReplyDeleteConstipated toddlers?
I didn't think you were commenting on football matters Gaz.
ReplyDeleteI actually thought Walcott had a pretty decent game. He and Johnson were linking up brilliantly on the right side with plenty pace, causing their defence all sorts of bother.
ReplyDeleteGerrard was below par i.e. his usual self in an England shirt. Capo shoul give him a rest and play Lamps behind the 2 front men.
Adam Johnson and A. Cole on the left will be brilliant as well.

ReplyDeleteI didn't think you were commenting on football matters Gaz.
ReplyDelete____________
I'm not
I'm talking about Arsenal!!
I suppose you're right Spits
ReplyDeleteIt has been really exciting on our last couple of visits to The Emirates
11-30pm and the Mods are still awake and at work over on the FBBC. Shame they don't get their arses over to the sports editors blog and start going through the comments there so they can be published.
ReplyDeleteOf course the mods are awake Colch, since when have robotic overloards of doom ever needed sleep?
ReplyDeleteOh and to agree with others, please try and persuade Andre over here. It'll be fucking hilarious when we take him down the pegs needed that the Beebs filters wouldn't allow us to do previously >:D
Is it me or does this site refresh quicker than the Beeb too!?
ReplyDeleteAll we need is Charlesy to set up shop and we're sorted.
Just seen Andre's post on the Beeb version:
ReplyDelete"Niall, now is your chance to leave 'Robbo' behind and actually move on with your life. You have an excellent chance for some personal growth. Don't throw it away."
If anyone, and Robbo this goes for you too, needs some personal growth I've got a few emails I can forward onto you.
Question: Are we still doing 3 in a row = boring?
ReplyDeleteCos if so.....BOING!
Good blog on the beeb, dunno why they got rid of it.
ReplyDeleteOh well, prob better on here, more personalisation and colloquialisms allowed.
Welcome Luke
ReplyDeleteAs an ex-lurker, i can say that being part of this crazy blog is even better than just reading it.
Its at its best when there are new posters, so stick around and enjoy.
Right thats the pleasantries out of the way. Which football team support and why the fuck do you hate Gary Neville, John Terry, Cashley & the Pet Shop Boys so much?
Oh dear ... my premod's just been lifted .... hehehehe
ReplyDeleteThere fifteen on the boiing over there, sure to get me terminated any moment now, but i've made a screen copy to keep for posterity's sake.
ReplyDeleteTry modding that one mods!
And for those who want to see the version forever unsullied by the hand of Mod:
ReplyDeletehttp://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p2/pinkmarshmallow2006/rantage.gif
I've also loaded a copy on my blog.
G'day all
ReplyDeleteQuite a rant that Star... You want to hope Robbo doesn't get offered his old blog back... it'll take years for you to return mate... good one.
I don't just burn me bridges Bo ... I semtex the support pylons and lay out TNT across the walkway just to do a thorough job ;)

Look forward to JDR on the new blog and bye bye to AndreX
Does change of editorial direction mean that nothing funny is allowed and just WHO IS actually the BBC Sports editor. Has Mihir (I'm not a proper journalist) Bose reappeared to wreak veangance on those who got him sacked
Just what is the story about Bose anyway? I rocked up just after he left.
ReplyDeleteAre you saying it is insulting to ERASURE Adam... I tend to agree with you mate.
ReplyDeleteMorning all.It seems the bbc Robbo blog is building up to quite a nasty crescendo.Shame.It would be nice to let the old boy go out with some dignity.
ReplyDeleteRight.
ReplyDeleteCoffee drunk. Check.
Car hoovered. Check.
Foul mouthed, childish, expletive tirade left for the mods to peruse on the old blog. Check.
Time for some fan fic writing methinks.
Star, I walk around with my eyes closed most of the time... he was here while I was here but I never read any of his blogs... like I don't read any of mcnulty's. I occassionally read other blogs if the title take me fancy.
ReplyDeleteG'day Jack... I haven't been back there since my last post (which was modded by the way.) I'll hang around here until the regulars turn up mate.
ReplyDeleteThe Eagles were total crap on Sunday Jack... if you haven't watched the highlights don't bother.
Is Carrick the limpest little lettuce leaf or what?
ReplyDeleteHe shouldn't go to SA on last night's performance anyway... neither should baines or gerrard.
ReplyDeleteBo,I noticed a 17 point lead in the 3rd quarter soon turned into a 35 point defeat.Fitness issues again?
ReplyDeleteBo,I think Capello is a lucky general.Again a very poor performance and yet a flattering 3-1 win.
ReplyDeleteStar,I assume you'll approve.Just put Chris Cornell on in the shop.
ReplyDeleteNot really Jack, the Saints just turned it on for ten minutes... that's all it took... but the eagles were dreadful all day.
ReplyDeleteEnglands win was very flattering mate, I could hardly believe my eyes when they were two up... Mexico were by far the superior team.
ReplyDelete6 unanswered goals I think.Are St Kilda contenders?
ReplyDeleteRobbo, I came up with a solution to our woes last night.
ReplyDeletePlay our defenders as strikers as King and Johnson can score some good goals and put some of our strikers as defenders.
Crouch's height would come in handy (as he demonstrated for Spurs with dealing with Delap's throw ins) and we'd even finally have a use for Heskey's 'Presence.'
Bo,I've never understood the stick England managers have been given over the years.We aren't a very good side.Never have been.I think 3 1/4 finals on the trot for Erikson was a very good achievement.Mind you,I don't believe anything our press write to hype them up...
ReplyDeleteHehe a cunning business ploy there Jack ... play some music to get the metal heads in and get their long locks cut.
ReplyDeleteNice one :)
In business terms nothing gives me greater pleasure than taking great swathes of hair and reducing it to short back and sides....
ReplyDeleteI don't think the saints are contenders Jack, they have a couple of players to come back from injury but they were almost as bad as the eagles mate.
ReplyDeleteI think we grossly overestimate our (England) team Jack... our expectations far outweigh the teams quality.
Have to leave for a short while... catch ya later.
See you soon Bo.

ReplyDeleteWell fuck me, the last post is robbo classique...
seems a few of the robbo haters really just hated us... cool. That Andre what a cunt, thiers an advert for birth control right thier...

Well 3 hours and 20 angry e-mails later and that's profile #35 deleted.

ReplyDeleteBlasted mods didn't waste much time changing my name back .... soon remedy that one hehehe.

ReplyDeleteI've gotten so used to Capello putting him second on the team sheet Robbo I just assumed he was on the pitch ... somewhere.

ReplyDeleteThe Darts was awesome RBA. Two 9 Darters and a 10 Darter. Quality.
ReplyDeleteA man who won the lottery has purchased Liverpool FC.....His delighted wife said "God knows what he would've bought if he got 4 numbers"!
Does McNutly pre-mod himself?
ReplyDeleteTaylor man... wow... felt a bit sorry for wadey, but still proud of the lad...
ReplyDeleteYeah i flicked through and i usualy just skim past LFC TV and dont really notice... but it turns out that its included... they gave JOhn Barnes his own show... its exactly as good as you would expect it to be...

Truce and touche, for Robbo
ReplyDeleteYesterday afternoon, after reading the last blog and posting what I’d thought would be a final comment, I cancelled the BBC account and was on the point of setting the whole Robbo thing aside. Then I received the notice that the post had been moderated, which in turn brought me back to the blog and the comments that followed.
Now the hijackers here haven’t quite picked up on this yet as they simply choose to ignore, mock and spew against the numerous comments posted against them, but if Robbo’s going to make this a successful venture, then those of us who aren’t cut from your particular cloth are going to need to stay around. It’s that simple. There needs to be balance. Robbo’s been ousted from a good job, and despite the fresh impetus that comes with striking out on your own, this has to be a difficult time for him. You can feel it in his responses. As our whole point here is, or at least should be, to support the freedom of speech that he’s championed for so long, we should all get behind him by not simply dousing hatred all over one another. It has to be this way, otherwise people like JDR, Andre and myself simply won’t bother dropping in, which means, in time, the blog would peter out and fail. This isn’t cowardice on our part: it’s merely a question of not allowing our own voice to be twisted and abused by prejudice and stupidity. My hope is that those who feel as I do will give the new blog a sporting chance, not just as silent observers (called ‘lurkers’ here), but as active contributors and supporters.
This obviously isn’t going to work with everyone. But for those ‘regulars’ who can think and see, I’m going to clarify my own feelings here as they’ve been deliberately skewed by Blog and Co.; take it for what you will, but I’d hardly be ‘hiding’ or falsifying here, now would I? This will not read kindly, but the intention is only to prevent the repetition of a lie. In essence, I’m doing what has been asked of me for the sake of preventing others from continuing on with accusations and bile in my name, as let’s face it, even my silence doesn’t do anything to shut them up. So please, let’s get this over with now such that all the ‘right wing’ epithets are placed into proper context. Say what you will and attack where you see fit, that’s all fair enough, but don’t turn me into something I’m not and then proceed with hateful comments based upon the wilful misreading. That’s all I ask. Starfire’s morning spew in the BBC blog should give you an idea as to why it was brought to an end; this simply can’t happen here or there won’t be a blog at all. It’s funny, but this is what is technically termed fascistic behaviour, and as always it would seem, it comes from one who can’t even spell it properly (‘faschist’).
Hopefully, what follows will be enough, and afterwards we can get back to the football. This will be a memorable World Cup, and having had Robbo around for so long, it’s hard to imagine some of the banality it will no doubt contain without him enabling us to find the laughter inside it all.
Making liars think
ReplyDeleteI’m not a racist, nor am I in any way connected to the right wing of our society. The only politician I’ve ever admired is Al Gore; I wept when George W. became President. I have a problem with one extreme branch of one particular group of people, and not with the people themselves. My point, moderated several times, was that I hated to see our troops being abused when returning from duties abroad. Whether we agree with the battles they’re fighting or not should be entirely irrelevant. They put their lives on the line for us and ought to be afforded due respect. I feel the same way when I see our police and firemen being mistreated. It’s a question of decency not race. This is England. This is our home. Those who come here, as with America and Canada, should treat it as their home and respect that home. Our country is not respected, and the litter in every corner of every street and wood should tell you that. Other countries are not the same; other countries do not tolerate such contempt from within. It doesn’t serve any society to have an undercurrent of hatred festering just beneath the surface. My thoughts aren’t based on colour and never have been. Blog and Co. insist I’m being insiduous or deceptive and not saying what I really mean, but that’s simply untrue: I don’t say these things because I don’t feel them in any way. We have a problem in this country and we already have far too many people living here. It’s not that I have hatred for those wishing to move here, regardless of their race, I just love my country more. It really is that simple. There isn’t any other secret agenda.
And now to those who spew the bile. Adampsb is the easiest one to deal with. This one actually went so far as to call me a ‘homophobe’, even though I’d never said a word on or relating to the subject. Obviously, this thorny subject is one of his pet concerns, the reason for which might well be apparent to regular readers. For my part, as virtually all of my artistic interests begin and end with gay men, I couldn’t very well be thrown into the homophobe category. But that’s beside the point. As I’ve recently been forced to make a temporary move to the smoggiest, nastiest dirthole in England, perhaps you and I should meet. This isn’t a challenge, but rather a simple means of giving you the opportunity to say what you need to say; personally, I’d prefer you to say these things straight to my face. We can meet in any public place. You can be the man you need to be, and I’ll give you a crystal clear explanation as to why your degree isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on. Again, this is the gentlemanly way of doing things; if you don’t accept, then have the strength of character to shut up from this point forth.
The others fall more or less rather tidily into the useless idiot with too much time on their hands category. But there’s one who stands out, and due to this person’s unrelenting attacks against me and all the bitterness and bile those attacks contain, all sense of civility is necessarily set aside.
The worst of us all
ReplyDeleteBlog will never leave the minepit in his mind. Comments like ‘sinister and creepy’ are borne of fear, the fear of a proper education, the fear of someone, anyone, being ‘better’ than him. I’m in a position to look into the psychology behind words. This man is as utterly transparent as any I’ve ever encountered. I explain myself having been misrepresented by others, but this person’s need to share every detail of his life reads like a constant cry for help. This person is dangerous. Very likely conceived as one, he’s lived his entire life as a drunken mistake. He’s one of the errors in life. This isn’t the type of person even the worst of you would wish to have a drink with in a pub. He feels his inadequacy in everything he is and everything he does. And so he gives us a daily barrage of how he feels about the world. He even goes so far as to insult the Queen and berate Cameron constantly before the man even has a chance to warm his ass in the chair. He spits upon ‘Oxbridge’ for no other reason than he was never bright enough to attend himself. He doesn’t give anyone a chance because he never really had a chance himself. He grew up in an environment where nothing was ever right, everyone else was always to blame, criticism was constantly being directed at every person and every single thing in front of him, and a constant stream of physical and mental abuse no doubt began every morning and sealed his eyes at night. And so in turn he himself must criticise everything before him, and if he’s unable to place a person in one of those pre-designed bins of understanding, he forces them inside anyway like the petulant little thug he is and will always be. Anything beyond his comprehension is ‘right-wing psychodrama’, even though he’s far too thick to know what it means. Had he any wit at all, he’d realise that he himself is everything he supposedly hates. Just because you vote labour and spout the party’s worth at every opportunity, doesn’t mean to say you’re not the worst type of fascist.
Now this redresses the imblance. It should end here. You’ve said your part in bursts and insults over the past several months, and now you’ve had your full response. For heaven’s sake, have the guts to leave it there. You will not win a battle with me.
As so many of you have pointed out, we can say whatever we want here, but that doesn’t mean we always should. There are some people who just don’t fit. If there are attacks, as there have been in the past, then the likely responses are going to hurt us all. Robbo can’t keep this blog running without our help. He’ll need to get sponsors to help meet the basic costs in time, and aside from those offering remedies for erectile dysfunction, it’s hard to see any wishing to be associated with us under the present set of circumstances. There’s a reason why a blog with so many views has been cancelled: please, understand this reason before it’s too late. Banter will always be healthy if our differences are respected; this blog shouldn’t be reduced to a desperate chatroom for a select few who have nowhere else to go. I wouldn’t want to see this venture fail, but it’s going to be impossible to sustain without everyone’s full support. For the good of us all, try to bear this in mind.
Ta Cow... quite right that we need a bit of Blog-tension to keep this boat floating. And if we keep it in the spirit of feverish disagreement rather than name-calling I'd be more than happy.
ReplyDeleteIn the meantime, those of us that have had even the mention of the word dung edited out of their contribution can delight in the cheerful use of the occasional expletive till the novlety wears off.
Have become The Ressurectionist on the bbc - see if you can guess which one is me
ReplyDeleteStill can't believed the banned Adam now .... what a bunch of pricks.
ReplyDeleteCoweslepe.
ReplyDeleteI accept your truce with good grace,and offer one in return.
I do hope we can all move into this new blog with(cliche alert) a clean sheet.
Wait a mo. Cow, you've managed to post up some more critical analysis here of other posters and while you've got the absolute right to stand up for what you believe, the value of your contributions are going to be undermined if you continue to indulge in character assassination. Let's try and keep the subject on footy, eh? Otherwise your fear that this blog will rapidly dwindle in the glare of petty name-calling and back-patting will come true.
ReplyDeleteOh and - this blog is meant to be fun... you know light-hearted...

As usual you are off your trolley. I called you a homophobe as you seemed at the time to have a problem with gay artists (possibly they said you were ugly and wouldn't go out with you) my user name. It ain't PSB for nothing.
As for Blog not leaving the minepit and spitting on Oxbridge you may not have realised it but he is an exaggerated character as was Winston Carruthers and Konnolsky. For all yo u kno wBlogdignag could actually be an Oxford graduate but chooses to mock it due to his experience there. My own comments are a deliberate parody as a right-wing 80's music liking United fan. Even JDR is unlikely to really be as pedantic as he pretends to be (and unlike yourself actually became reasonably likeable)
If Al Gore and his Inconvenient Truth (the main one being that he made up half of his research) then that says everything about what sort of person you are, dealing in half-truths and whispering campaigns.
You are a bitter twisted person whose soul is as empty as Shylocks
Cheers Cowes ... wouldn't have gone on my little tirade if the Mods hadn't been so heavy handed in the first place.
ReplyDeleteAction, reaction and so on ... fact of the matter is the mods are a useless lot who can't take a little criticism, can't work out what 'Defamatory' means and if they and the BBC are going to get rid of the few things I enjoy, then I as a license fee payer am going to protest in a variety of ways as I am entitled to do so.
I won't sit idly by and be silenced by that mob.
i liked Shylock, that man got fleeced by them lousy crackers... they treated him like cack, he got a chance for fair revenge, after they needed his help... them they stiffed him on a technicaltity... antisemetic cack...
ReplyDeleteSAVE SHYLOCK...
How speaking my mind is deemed fascist ( I don't claim to be a perfect speller) I'll never know.
ReplyDeleteKudos to you anyway Cowes, that's the first time I've been called that by the way.
