Channel 5 has 'no plans to show boxing at the moment'

[ILikeBeer]

And perceptions thereof... I watched the first series of Big Brother until the Scouser got his cock out and my girlfriend said "Wow, that's pretty big, is that normal?". I've never watched a second of it since.

That in a couple of lines is my problem with it. It's a show where a guy gets his cock out for the entertainment of the fans. If it was The Apprentice, I can see that at least there is some supposed skill involved in winning. (Though you do have to look hard to find it with some contestants.) Modifying your behaviour so people will like you and vote for you? Getting your cock out on television in the hope of getting votes? You'll never convince me this is a good thing.

Anyway, this is a boxing forum. My mind is not going to be changed on the subject. Let's get back to Channel Five showing boxing.

Is this the correct site for recovering boxing perverts? I was sent in this direction some time ago but I'm not sure whether I fit in?

I got a reply to the email I sent to Channel 5, which says they have no intention of NOT showing boxing again.

... and of course you believe them. Never trust a Company that uses double negatives !!
I'd prefer it if they had said "Have every intention of showing boxing"
Also the use of the word again. 2013 2014 2054 ?

Why do so many people believe the original tweet?

That was probably some idiot in the PR department told to "monitor Twitter" who probably just did a search on their own website. It was hardly the head of Channel 5 being caught out.

So why is the Degale billed cancelled ?
Only one reason because CH 5 pulled the plug.
Wake up and smell the coffee.

It could look that way, but it could also be a result of this review that was going on..... even MH has said this. They might not permeanantly be pulling the plug.
