Official Boxing Thread...
Frank was great but his very low body fat meant he had very little stamina and tired very easily. Once he was tired his glass chin came into range.

Said he wanted to more or less make his opponent a cabbage. "I will be unhappy if he gets up after 10 seconds. I would consider that a loss." http://utv.vo.llnwd.net/o16/talkSPORT/audio/current2016/talkSPORT-20170302-130644.mp3

Roots 2016 (BBC 4) . Watched final episode tonight. Excellent and great idea to have different directors for each of the four two hour episodes. Far better than the original 70's series and well worth watching.

Shrewsbury 0-2 Wanderers
Its deffo Shrew. As an aside I have been told that Shrewsbury is a town thats worth spending a weekend in. Don't know if this is true.

After what I heard Haye say today on Talksport, I believe the boxing authorities should immediately remove his licence for good.

Could Somebody Explain
No, its the prosecutor deciding they did not have the evidence they had at the point the prosecutor decided to prosecute the case or the defence disclosed evidence just before the trial that meant it wasnt worth going to trial.

Could Somebody Explain
Could be one of many things. Perhaps a crucial witness changed their mind and refused to testify or as you say crucial evidence was lost. Agree though that its scandalous that the accused is named before the trial.

I dont listen until H&J come on at 1pm. Awful is being kind.

First episode of Broadchurch was very good. Our Haley is a great actor.

This Weather.....
Severe weather warning from the Met office for snow over East Lancs and West Yorks today. So far only some sleet.

I reckon the £ will make a difference. As an aside I remember travelling back from Wales after our 2001 pay off final listening to both Talksport and 5 live when pundits and callers alike reckoned we would struggle to reach 10 points!

Car Insurance
I swap every year. The insurers gamble with introductory prices that most punters won't continue to switch and auto renewal is part and parcel of this. Just renewed mine as Churchill sent me a letter saying they would auto renew on 22 March at £120 more. I then tried four search engines and found one at £30 less than last year with lower compulsory excess and better free add ons. It pays to change every year.

Todays Games
Should have been 3-2 that. Considering Huddersfield have made 9 changes to their normal first team I have to say they have played some impressive stuff going forward. The guy in the head band Billing is immense. A good bet they will finish top two or win play offs.

Shame, Huddersfield looked quite impressive for 20 mins. Seem to have retreated and now being blown away.

Good cup tie. This ref seems to be oblivious to hand ball in the box. Three blatant.

I will no doubt watch it, but that trailer looks like more of the same type of plot.

A Quarter Of A Century Ago Last Sunday
I was shell shocked and the long drive back was all about ifs and buts with my four passengers. If Mark Patterson had found row Z with his clearance it could have been so different. However, Neale would probably have kept his job at the end of that season and our journey with Rioch might never have taken place. I heard a urban myth that Neale was so shell shocked he was seen sat in his car on Burden car park until first light. As an aside I remember it being T shirt weather outside the pub near the ground.

Parky - As Good As We Can Expect Or Not ?
The happy clappy Coyle said something along those lines at a charity do when my wife questioned him on the absence of Muamba in the starting eleven. I disagreed at the time and disagree now. Its a team game. A well organised, well drilled and motivated side can achieve much more than it constituent parts. I have witnessed this many times in my 47 years watching the game.

New Driving Law
See I don't see a problem in taking a call with a proper cradle or in built blue tooth set up. To me its no different than talking to a passenger whilst driving. Its the texting twats and the ones trying to set up their mobiles as sat navs whilst driving thats the issue.

Aye, after last years "outrage" there was bound to be some sort of PC tokenism and a film about a gay black man ticks all the boxes.

Recent Filums I've Watched
Hidden Figures. 8/10. An interesting story of NASA's pool of human (black female) computers.

Yet many on this site would not acknowledge far greater players such as Silva at City and Iniesta and Messi at Barca. Yet some self centred tool who knocks in a hatful against lesser teams is revered? What a load of fucking shiite!
