This thread has been on here for a few hours …

Where are “Spud Bashers” … bleating & b*tching?

Anyhow I have waited long enough I have toilets to
clean.

Have a great day forum, I will continue thinking of provoking debate and stirring the pot to create interest in this excellent forum.
:TU: :TU:

It is good to hear from you.

To be fair, and perhaps I’m only speaking about me, I’m probably a bit long in the tooth to engage with the stirring I think it’s a combination of several things 1) Cost of living, I think lots (well me anyway) need to be head down working ridiculously long hours to justify my real life me, cannot dedicate the time to either writing articles or spending time to respond to bites/ruck 2) Boxing is such a marginalised and expensive sport to follow it is hard to fully engage…I’ve still got a massive fight collection of dvds but I cannot remember the last time I saw a fight live….radio yes, but not a tv/stream fight as live. 3) as we read about your health issues and strong fight, it puts getting worked up about a topic into perspective.
Thank you for the kind words…. If I were totally honest Parkinson’s has properly f*cked me up, it is a hideous condition. But I wont stop fighting.

Today has made me smile … seeing some old faces has been great

Think most of the contervesional and boxing forum personalities have moved to social media like Youtube channels, facebook and podcasts. I dont think the big boxing insiders read forums has much as they did pre facebook etc. Most people who post on boxrec are a Boomer

Spud, I know a bloke can now marry another bloke but I still think it is only one at a time.

Or is it first cum, first served, for your hand in marriage?

Such a classless post, Gio. Disappointing, but expected. You’ve reminded me to drop you a line though on IJL. I’m looking forward to it.

What’s the best way to get hold of you? I’d rather listen to your bullshit ‘live’ than contrived responses via email.

First as tragedy, then as farce. Or so said that Karl Marx fella. He was out of shape too so it works.
