How is if arse kissing? In that situation my mates wouldn't grass me up and would lie for me but they certainly don't kiss my arse. It's loyalty amongst friends.

I'm sure all those people who were acting as Harrison's mob are still there now the money has dried up. That's real loyalty.

The atmosphere was one of hilarity. if I did someone is an attack like that, I would hope I had friends who would see there was a problem and help me out. Rent a mob dick heads who love being associated with the champ aren't friends, in my opinion.

My point is, they would probably be his friend even if he'd never boxed. He's that way out himself. I've got mates who would do anything to support me, even when I'm in the wrong, and I'm not a champ, far from it!

I've been lucky enough to have mates like that and when iI got really lucky I got friends who would rebuke me when I was in the wrong.

Mine would back me in a fight, but still go mad with me later if I caused it.

Id back my mates when they were in the wrong 99 times out 100. Obviously there would be exceptions in extreme conditions but I'd stand up for them and then tell them the next day that they were wrong. I would fully expect the same in return.

Although people acquire hangers on as they rise to fame I would imagine that there are quite often people around who were there before it all started.

I really don't like being referred to as a 'Jock'. Are you Irish by any chance?

You might want to look into suing the Mickey Mousers for your hurt feelings mate - such comments have no place in society let alone the workplace.

I've been called a lot of things in my life worse than 'Jock' but that term tends to get my back up. I find it quite arrogant and belittling. I'm sure most of the time whoever is using the term doesn't mean it in that way though.

It's just a name. I upset people all the time without meaning it... A bloke in my taxi said he was Kurdish, I replied "in Turkey", he went mental, I threw him out of the car. I was making small talk with a guy up here for the races from Wolverhampton and said "where are you from, pal, Birmingham?", he lost the plot, I thought I was going to have to hit him.

Fair do's, I have never heard of anyone taking offence at the term. To me, it has always been like Scousers, Manc's, Geordies, Taff's.

However, if it is a word that causes offence, I will not use it :TU:

Sky hyped up the ‘McCullough was fighting in U.S. arenas, but he’s had his last few in smaller venues in the U.K. to get him ready for this David Vs Goliath clash’. It was almost exactly the same as David Goliath if you removed the catapult, the outcome and the fact that God wanted David to win.

I don't know anyone Scots who like the term 'jock' same as I don't know any Chinese who like being called a chinky etc etc.

As for when I was in liverpool, after a while I ended up smacking the labourers for doing it, cheeky squeeky voiced pudenda that they were.
