To the Australian Beer gut sat outside Franklins today...

...and you know who you are, you filthy mole.


When you're mate asked if you had watched any of the paralympics, you're reply of


"Why would anyone want to watch that shit, a bunch of spastic cripples..." you said it so loudly and laughed so wildly that your great big fat white gut, feel clear out over the top of your grubby jeans.


Keep your redneck Queenslander (judging by your accent) thoughts to your self.


Berk.

He has probably totally missed the irony - his "bunch of spastic cripples" are much fitter than he is and *much* closer, physically and spiritually, to the British competitors who won medals in the Olympics. Of course many Aussies are currently labouring under a massive inferiority complex anyway since "Team GB" tonked them so thoroughly at the latter event...

Keef, I don't know of anybody who thinks like he does. I don't keep company with arseholes.

i think simon is saying that discrimination against paraomplypians is as bad as racism?

If you are reading this pigman, then make sure you are in the same place at the same time this weekdn and we can meet up for a quiet one.Im sure I'll recognise you.

Madworld you do tend to jump down people's throats without really reading what they were trying to say. I don't keep company with arseholes either, but that doesn not change the fact that lots of people won't really give the paralympics the time of day, and lots of people will laugh at the term spaz or cripple.


That's the world we live in, like it or not!


For my part I do lots of work with blind sports charities, and sit next to the England Blind cricket team manager every day at work. Sorry if I sound defensive here, but I feel like you're suggesting myself and Simon are on the same page as the drunk Aussie bloke.

There are 2 formats. The international game uses a normal sized ball with a rattle in it, and it's bowled underarm (although some of them are feckin fast!!!). The domestic game in the UK uses a larger ball (biiger than a cricket ball but smaller than a football), also with rattles in it, this is bowled overarm like normal cricket.


The new England captain Matthew Dean scored a century in his debut as captain (against the West Indies) about a week before KP did it.

Sorry AFN - are you making out that since I work the advertising industry I'm a... 'filthy mole', 'swine', 'immature', 'arsehole' 'pigman'?


I'm astounded to think that a toilet mouth is the making of a gentleman.


Is this how we do it? Having exhausted the scorn we can pour those who may deserve it, we then extend our aim to spatter our diseased prejudices over any other target of our choosing? What a shame.

blind cricket, excuse my ignorance, but are the players totally blind or partially sighted. How big is the bat if they are using a bigger ball, is the ball as hard as a normal ball and finally is there someone calling direction of stroke as i can,t imagine the players would have much reaction time.

Advertising Industry? Sorry i thought you were just opposed to the rituals of the Catholic Church, had no idea that you also offer spirtitual redemption through object fetishisation.


But no in answer to your question i was just pointing out the fact that the popularity of the event is specifically linked to the viewers which in turn is linked to the advertising and prominence of the scheduling within a tele-visual context. if the audience ain't there then advertisers won't sell. We are all complicit within this little capitalist conundrum.

    • He seemed to me to be fully immersed in the Jeremy Corbyn ethos of the Labour Party. I dint think that (and self describing as a Marxist) would have helped much when Labour was changed under Starmer. There was a purge of people as far left as him that he was lucky to survive once in my opinion.   Stuff like this heavy endorsement of Momentum and Corbyn. It doesn't wash with a party that is in actual government.   https://labourlist.org/2020/04/forward-momentum-weve-launched-to-change-it-from-the-bottom-up/
    • I perceive the problem.simply as spending too much without first shoring up the economy.  If the government had reduced borrowing,  and as much as most hate the idea, reduced government deiartment spending (so called austerity) and not bowed to union pressures for pay rises, then encouraged businesses to grow, extra cash would have entered the coffers and at a later stage when the economy was in a stronger position rises in NI or taxes would have a lesser impact, but instead Reeves turned that on its head by increasing ni which has killed growth, increased prices and shimmied the economy.  What's worse is that the perceived 20 billion black hole has increased to 30 billion in a year. Is there a risk that after 5 years it could be as high as 70 billion ???     
    • That petition is bananas.   If you want a youth centre there pay the landlord the same rent a Londis would and build it yourself or shut the f**k up to be honest. Wasting our MPs time with this trivial nonsense is appalling. If your kids are still out at 1am on a school night you've got bigger problems than vapes and booze and hot sausage rolls. 
    • There used to be a better baker than Gail's on the same site immediately before Gail's pulled their financial muscle.
