    Surely the Police have better things to do than this

    It all fits nicely with the current 'trendy' narrative of 'Virtue Signalling' being of more importance than dealing with real crime that affects peoples lives daily. Those elderly folk who have been mugged, or had their houses broken into, those who have had their cars damaged by feral youths...

    Songs that just make you feel good.....

    The Laughing Gnome by David Bowie. Quirky song that rarely gets mentioned when covering his career hits. First released around 1969 then a hit again in the early 1970s. I loved it as a kid and so Bowie.

    DUP leader Jeffrey Donaldson

    He’s always been a hardliner when it comes to politics from the unionist side. I saw him in Parliament last year when he walked past me at an event. He had a very self assured, arrogant sort of look on his face.

    Just been watching all of Mike Tyson’s knockouts on YouTube

    Whilst Ali was the greatest of his time and had such flair and technique when it comes to raw power Tyson has never been matched. I recall watching his fights in the 1980s and they would rarely last more than a few rounds. On at least one fight he lifted his opponent off the floor with one of...

    Most bizarre find?

    Agree with you there. I've met quite a few so called 'Celebs' in my charity work and she was by far the most unfriendly and curt of them all. I haven't met James Corden yet and do not wish to!

    God Advice!

    Reminds me of my all time favourite comedian Groucho Marx. He had been invited to a posh society dinner and the Roman Catholic Bishop of the area stood up and said 'I would like to thank Groucho for bringing so much fun into this world' In response Groucho stood up and said 'And I I would...

    “Stakeknife” dead

    Correction yes. He was driving home from work with his brother who was injured. He drove into the ‘Killing Zone’ a truly awful coincidence he was wearing the same boiler suit as the IRA team. The SAS took no prisoners that day. It was shoot to kill and they took out 8 committed terrorises that...

    “Stakeknife” dead

    Its been stated by ex army servicemen who controlled spies that McGuinness' was a British agent and his code name was 'Fisherman' because he liked fishing. The department who controlled spies motto was also 'Fishers of Men' coincidentally. To convince people of this they said that's why so...

    Worst Boro player/manager/chairman inteviews?

    If I recall correctly didn't Strachan once say he was going to go home and hang himself when the interviewer asked him how he was feeling after a defeat? Totally inappropriate attempt at humour and not a good listen tbh. Remember when Steve Mc went to work in Holland and he adopted a faux Dutch...

    “Stakeknife” dead

    Correct. Both titles have been used but the book is the spelling Stakeknife. A dirty war in which neither side exactly covers themselves in glory with the behaviours that went on. The British intelligence service and the IRA are both mightily relieved now he is dead. His behaviour was a...

    Brighton fans stabbed in Rome

    I saw Allo in Guisborough a few weeks ago. A big lad. I’ve heard that story as well. The police are no better than the cowardly fans. Thugs.

    Brighton fans stabbed in Rome

    Horrible cowardly Italians. Only attack innocent fans. The Brighton fan going to hospital after being stabbed then went to the match and was applauded by their fans. Good for him. The same happened to our very own 'Allo' against Roma. He was stabbed before the match when they attacked our fans...

    How many of us NEVER saw a game at Ayresome Park?

    The crazy thing about watching Boro at Ayresome Park in the 1980s was the amount of football violence, depending on the opposition. It was not unusual to be stood watching the game and at the same time the police would be hitting the away fans through the wire mesh fence with their truncheons...

    For a laugh, predictions for next season

    Gates at home will have reduced to 17 or 18,000. Remember those days? Plenty of nice red shiny seats on night games to look at. Derby and Portsmouth will have been promoted and with a sell out away support they will beat a lacklustre mid table team, ie us, at the Riverside. History repeats...

    The promotion charge starts tomorrow

    I like to see myself as being a positive person but I am also a realist. Rearrange the next sentence ‘stand cats a don’t we chance the play offs of making’ We will be lucky to get a top ten finish, we don’t score enough goals and are too inconsistent. The teams above us are Miles ahead. I...

    The curse of oak island.

    Haha. I agree. Strangely enough I’m quite addicted to the Bigfoot hunters, the GCBRO Gold Coast Bigfoot Research Organisation. They are as mad as a box of frogs. Running around in the woods in the middle of the night with guns that would destroy a tank! Haha. One minute they are saying hush and...

    We require 11 wins out of 14 for playoffs

    Will be lucky to finish 10th. Play offs beyond our reach now. Let’s focus on playing well and getting as many points as we can. Less pressure then. We just don’t score enough goals.
