Personally I’ve got not sympathy as it’s the choice they made and it’s better they get hurt.

My only gripe is that they don't reverse over the scumbags afterwards

I have no idea why you would expect me to show compassion to violent street robbers who get hurt during their arrest, Bovvers.

Changing news topic - it must be time for West Ham to change its name. Clearly supports the slaughter of pigs, which isn't good for them. I suggest this as PETA have writtenen to Wool Parich Council asking them to change their name - apparently shearing sheep is cruel (although the name has nothing to do with sheep)  -

I guess PETA members must have nightnares if they visit the Cotswolds, and see the villages of Upper and Lower Slaughter - perhaps they could drop the S to make PETA smile

A good news story to warm the cockles of your heart: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-south-scotland-46357130

 

Oldest surviving England player (aged 95) gets his England shirt back after it had been missing for 50+ years.

Someone borrowed it for a charity event in the 1960s, washed it, stuck it in her loft and forgot about it

That's her story, anyway - a thief racked with guilt for decades who finally cracked in the face of divine punishment, I reckon.

 

Must admit that I'd never heard of Ivor Broadis, but he scored twice for England at the 1954 World Cup.

Missing shirt was from an England v Scotland match in 1953, a 2-2 draw in which he scored both England goals.

It’s not like you to be that cynical, Alf.

As someone who's experienced moped robbers first hand, I found this extremely cathartic to watch.

No need - a steer is a castrated bull. 

 

 

I feel sorry for the person who had to tell him he was going to be castrated, then. :D

Just to clarify I don't actually hate you, Buce.  You seem like a lovely fellow regardless of your views on Finnish people's rights to self-identify as Scandinavian.

But, Carl, who would educate you if I didn't?

 

You'd just stumble through life in perpetual ignorance.

Well, that's good, Carl.

 

It's a heavy burden that we educators bear but bringing knowledge to the ignorant has its own rewards.
