Well, I've been had by yet another attention whore. It's just a shame this one doesn't have big tits and a dildo.

I think they're saying it was more experiment than hoax. It worked, it's got us lot taking.

Fair enough, it wasn't just a silly joke it was a social media experiment.

Re: British fighter making a shock comeback
I was driving to the Glasgow bill when this broke and in the space of 45 minutes a numpty like me got 26 calls and 32 texts.
Some were from posters on here some from people in the business. None from casual fans.
I dont do twatter or whatever it is. Too old wrong generation.

Didn't they run with a Curtis Woodhouse comeback tale last week too?
Re: British fighter making a shock comeback
