      Well Micky, Bob will be pleased. You’ve hereby enabled him to cross off another off his “is he a multi?” list. Because with words like that, you are definitely not Arky. :lol: [/quote]

      Phew! Thank heavens for that Griff. I was beginning to have doubts myself.

      :shock:

        Let them have sleepless nights, tossing and turning worrying about other people’s grammar, because it’s turning into a pedant fest on this forum.

        You are quite right Mr Bob…………..the pedantic, grammar, spullllang, oration thingy should have remained on this thread alone, as I said earlier some people need to take a ‘chill pill’.

        There are others that suffer from a certain ‘paranoia’ – unfounded I may say, and there are others that have taken the ‘jocular flavour’ of this thread into other threads….and that I believe is your gripe – I concur.

        What this thread has shown, however, is the need for benevolence, commitment, courtesy, devotion, faithfulness, impartiality, knowledge, loyalty, moderation, openness, respect, wisdom and of course………………………..

        ……………..Eloquence.

              Don’t flatter yourself; but hey…………………..it’s got right under your skin though, hasn’t it?

              You just keep thinking that way.

                It would appear that you are determined to become an adversary?

                If you disagree with my point then that’s ok but it looks like you are trying to prove how intellectually superior you are and unwittingly prove my point.

                Supposition…and assumption

                Why do you say “it would appear that I am determined to become an adversary?” – look…….read my posts.

                Don’t overuse exclamation marks!!!!

                Yes, I disagree with your point – that’s my point………………..ok?

                I have nothing to prove…………….get it?[/quote]

                It took you quite a while to come up with that response and I have no idea what it means. Did you break any keys whilst typing?

                Big fish and little pools spring to mind.

                Goodnight[/quote]

                You are obviously not as clever as you try to make out then.

                I have other boards to comment on (if you are interested that is) and your reference to ‘breaking keys’ shows you up for who you are……

                Not at all an ‘Owd Git’ but a Troll from the ‘ol days who wants his/her 15 minutes of fame……go on then………….

                deny it.

                    I blame the left wing pinkos of the fifties and sixties for the parents we have of today….

                    Captain Pugwash…….a subtle cartoon for the younger generation had characters such as…

                    Roger…the cabin boy
                    Seaman Staines
                    Master…bates

                    No wonder this generation is mixed up…………………. :shock:

                      Mr Owd
                      You do your argument (opinion) no good whatsoever. If the person (sex indeterminate) as I said , puts on this board their opinion why then does anyone replying become, in your opinion, an adversary?
                      I’m saving the rest for later………

                      As an ex-serviceman I am ‘fondly’ reminded of this..

                      “Short words are best and the old words when short are best of all.”

                      Winston Churchill

                      Remember in these days……. and in particular ask those who are young to understand.

                        ………….John would be in for fifty quid just for starters. :shock:

                          I agree with most of what’s been said….when the real competition starts we will see whether Fabio has got it right or not. I think it’s all turning into one big mind game – no-one wants to show their hand too soon (all but Brazil who I believe are already in South Africa with a fully declared team getting proper practice in).

                          Bring on the competition……………….I can’t wait.

                          i was going to start a thread about the same but my last ‘world cup thread’got hijacked by the grammar gestapo

                          You really must learn to start your sentences with a capital letter you know…………. :D

                            At the risk of upsetting some contributors to this forum, there is no excuse for bad spelling; dictionaries are cheap and spell-checkers are free.

                            A person’s intellect is judged, rightly or wrongly, by his spelling just like his social standing is judged by his clothes or his car. I don’t necessarily agree with this but it is no use pretending otherwise.

                            I remember a young man with green hair being interviewed on television. He couldn’t understand why he was failing all his interviews. The colour of his hair should have had no bearing on the outcome at all but ………………………..

                            Mr Owd

                            I disagree there chap; intellect is not judged by good or bad spelling – it’s what you have to say that determines your effective intelligence.

                            There has been banter on the board recently and those that engaged knew exactly what was going on (as they had the wit and intelligence to deal with it) however, those that feel the need to jump on every grammatical error or spelling mistake just out of sheer nastiness are merely masking their own inadequacies and showing us their total lack of social skills.

                            I admire anyone who is prepared to share an opinion, however radical, and back it up with good solid debate – it’s just the nasty trolls that get on my p@ps, the uneducated, ill-informed, back-biting wannabes – as my good ‘ol mum used to say…..”if you have nothing nice to say don’t say it’

                            So remember the idiom…………….

                            ………………”clothes don’t make the man”

                            ;)

                              The guy is obviously a few cigarette coupons short of a toaster !

                              and a couple of pages short of a green shield stamp book for the 5 pack of ‘Airfix’ planes kit.

                              For you older ones out there………….

                              it even included ‘The Hun’……….. :)

                                The Hillsborough tragedy was caused by a combination of many factors & so to blame it on terracing is naive (IMO)

                                Agreed. Why blame inanimate concrete when there are thousands of drunken scousers to blame? :shock: [/quote]

                                But Griff,

                                aren’t they one and the same…………….?

                                :shock:

                                  And don’t start a sentence with a conjunction.

                                  :)
