Lock them up and throw away the key for having a couple of thunder bolts painted on them? That's a bit harsh don't you think, especially seeing as most Germans of the post war generations wouldn't have a clue what the symbols were, such is the extent that some of German history is hidden from them?...

Best thing for me so far has been seeing the so called whipping boys having a real go and playing some really good stuff at times. Iran & Angola both showed some good stuff without any cutting edge. After watching our rather lame attempt on Saturday, it was a pleasure to watch Germany, Portugal and ...

Pretty much anyone can get caught up in trouble and occasionally be wrongfully arrested but these two k*obs have no such excuse. Lock em up and throw the bloody key away.

Ive just won the league with Newcastle after 5 seasons. The hours I put in fully justified my triumphant shout of "yes" and subsequent punching of the air. Well thats what I told Mrs G anyway.

Started 12 months ago and just started playing again this year. Absolute bobbins at it but enjoy it nevertheless. I'd be up for a TW open as long as I can play off 28. Best ever round was 115 on Bolton Muni so I've a way to go yet!

I dont see why people on good terms and conditions shouldnt protest when those very conditions are under threat. It upsets me that some peoples response to this is "I dont get that, why should they?" when there response should be "They have good terms and conditions, why cant I?" and then organise t...

I rarely read fiction. My bookshelves are full of Lonely Planets. I never look at them after I've been somewhere but am always reluctant to part with them. Bill Bryson's "A short history of nearly everything" and John Pilger's "Hidden agendas" are ones I dip in and out of along with a book called 'T...

To my shame I have to admit that I wasn't aware there was a live music scene at the D&P. Dont go into Bolton TC much but I used to pop into the Man & Scythe the odd Saturday for my fix of live music. To try and help Mofgimmers I'll get my ass down there and support it in future. See you in there? An...

At least until she speaks anyway. Please tell me you're joking about wanting Nikki to win DW. What an awful whining ...

Definitely endure my job rather than enjoy it. I Used to enjoy it but not anymore. I know I should leave but the moneys good, the colleagues great and I'm well aware that there are lots of worse places I could be. Tangos description of life as a Security Guard makes me thankful for what I've got. On...

Like Cowdrill I was another 'Jonny cum lately' :roll: so went for the first Bolton player to score a goal in the 4th division, and for some reason lost on me now, swapped the lead letters around. If i'd gone for the scorer of the last ever goal in the 4th division I could now be called Sobbie Ravage.

In second place Bruce Rioja for continuing the penguin theme. He might have been flogging a dead horse but it made me laugh.

However, the winner is Soldier of the White Army with his "Erm Tony, why do you insist on dragging that poor soldier around by his todger!!"

Over to you SotWA..
