Just saying - I'd love to be the owner of the company with the contract to remove confidential shredding from the American Department of Justice. That company must be making a mountain of money at the moment.
19 Dec 2025 20:27:53
Trump administration is absolutely lawless. Congress isn’t sitting atm hence delay in enforcing the law. Which Trump knows. Quite a few will be thrown under the bus for this but Trump may well survive.

Just out of interest, who else will be watching the end of Jake Paul in the early hours of tomorrow morning? 🌳.
19 Dec 2025 17:19:46
Not me ducky i'm more rupaul xx 🤣🤣🤣.
19 Dec 2025 19:06:47
Not me either Winter. The outcome is more certain than a Cornish person choosing a pasty over duck a l'orange.
19 Dec 2025 19:10:32
Duck and Saville orange pate, from a famous supermarket brand. i'm addicted 🤣🌳.
19 Dec 2025 22:52:51
You know what. Muhammad Ali or Cassius Clay as he was known then. Was a bigger price to beat Sonny Liston than Jake Paul is to be AJ.
How crazy is that.
This should all be over inside 2 minutes.
Anything over 2 rounds and something is well dodgy.
Can't blame AJ or Eddie Hearn for taking the fight/ money. But can't believe any responsible body has sanctioned the fight. It sets a very low bar. Boxing is a sport. But it is not a game. People can get seriously hurt.

For all you betting folk out there, here’s a tip for the starting day of the American war with Venezuela …. I’d go for this Friday, entirely coincidentally the date the Epstein files are released……🤔🤔.
17 Dec 2025 13:55:02
When hiding "Bad News", in the past, it was a picture of a flying saucer or The Loch Ness Monster on the front pages!, I hope it's not got to the stage where it takes a War to distract the public🤷.
17 Dec 2025 15:51:15
The great 'peacemaker' of out time starting a war, Stokey? I don't believe a word of it. TACO Trumputin is an upstanding bloke with the best morals and principles the world has ever seen. He would never start a war.
17 Dec 2025 22:29:08
The only peacemaker coming into this equation is the LGM-118😉🌳.
17 Dec 2025 23:08:49
Why oh why oh why?
17 Dec 2025 23:53:05
Exactly DTP, the greed of rich men, f***ing stinks🌳.
18 Dec 2025 14:31:30
As a retired cop, I still can’t believe the USA have elected a multiple convicted fraudster and adjudicated rapist as President. How can he be in any way, shape or form fit for Office?
18 Dec 2025 16:36:34
TACO has shown himself not to be fit for office on multiple occasions in is first presidency and US Presidents generally operate outside the legal boundaries anyway so it should come as no surprise that someone as insidious as this cretin has got in power.
Putin wouldn't have wanted anyone else to win which is why he helped him in 2016. Someone as weak as Trump is Putin's best chance of winning in Ukraine and we can see that happening.
18 Dec 2025 21:51:41
Stokey you could say the same about quite a few of your ex colleagues 🤷🏻♂️.
19 Dec 2025 10:30:35
2tone, I only came across one bent cop in Notts in 30 years ( and he was jailed) so a strange remark?
19 Dec 2025 14:23:18
Colin gunn had a few on the take.
19 Dec 2025 15:28:44
More on the being ‘fit for office’ stokey, I wouldn’t let most of the coppers go to the shops by themselves let alone protect us.
19 Dec 2025 20:35:21
DTP, the bent cop was taken down along with the Gunns. “Quite a few” is a gross exaggeration.
I2 tone I retired in 2009, so I can’t comment on the fitness or otherwise of Police Officers. I do know that the veterans were forcibly retired to save money leaving a new cadre of inexperienced Officers most with careerist ideas of their own rather than serving the public “without fear or favour “ which was the ethos when I was working.
I think my senior Officers had your back and got the job done instead of playing at politics and wokery. This old school attitude filtered down to the lower ranks I think perhaps in a way that it doesn’t nowadays?
19 Dec 2025 21:22:34
He was the one that took the hit stokey
Takes more than one to get away with what he and his gang did for years
By the way stokey I did a job about three years ago for a operations policeman and he actually said it was easier to police when the gunns ran bestwood,
Since then it becomes a turf war and police got no idea what to do about it.
19 Dec 2025 23:33:36
No DTP you are wrong mate. My extremely reliable information is that when the Gunns were taken down they cashed in all their chips with a view to having sentences reduced. They squealed like a stuck pig ( if I dare use that phrase). I knew the lad who was bent and he was a right thicko who got in way over his head and started to believe his own publicity. There were some attendant disciplinary matters for failing to supervise him but nothing criminal.
Your Officer who relied on the Gunns doing his job for him sounds a right idle “uniform carrier” and needs looking at, unless you were taking things out of context.
For example, when I was Hyson Green flats resident beat Officer for 2 years I was told by people that knew that it was the drug dealers who stopped the riots because an influx of Police hampered their operations.
It’s was a bit like the words of Bob Dylan’s song
“Now Joey stepped up and he raised his hand
And said “we are not those kinda men
It’s peace and quiet that we need
To go back to work again “.
20 Dec 2025 01:23:03
DTP if that's true we are in the shit.
They were running half of Nottingham and most people knew it.
Should have been collared much earlier before they gave the Police an open goal.
Thats what happens when people keep getting away with stuff, they keep pushing the envelope. Would have saved a few innocent lives.
13 Dec 2025 14:57:59
Just thinking what a wonderful Santa The Donald would make.
🏆🏆🎅🏽🎅🏽🎅🏽.
14 Dec 2025 01:42:23
Used to like and stand up for you carlo, never ever again. Sad as the rest. Dtp was right on you.
14 Dec 2025 20:12:28
You still haven't seen through your messiah yet then, Bowie.
14 Dec 2025 22:30:16
Why why why do you lot just keep bleeding american politics? Like a cult on here.
Swear everyone is sick of ya. Just sad.
14 Dec 2025 22:45:47
I thought you were OK Bowie but I, m totally bemused by your reaction to a bit of tongue in check banter totally.
14 Dec 2025 22:48:17
Look who starts it Bowie
Say no more
He says he's a forest fan, but you won't hear from carlo after a superb team performance, because he can't find anything to have a go at about the club?
Lose next week and he'll be back, with a couple of others.
15 Dec 2025 00:03:05
Its because you said something negative about Bowie's orange messiah, carlo. He can't stand to see it.
15 Dec 2025 02:03:44
As it's xmas ravers, I'd actually help ya may take me n santa get your head outta ya arse. Carlo it's not tongue in cheek these lot are bombarding American politics for no reason. And posts like yours just egg them on.
15 Dec 2025 07:55:55
😭😭😭😭.
16 Dec 2025 20:30:49
Prick no football just boredom. Schizophrenic.
12 Dec 2025 21:05:13
Film 4 tonight, American Gangster, one of the best films this century👍🌳.
12 Dec 2025 21:25:30
Aye up tv guide now 😁🤣🤣
Goid job your on it winter we might have all missed the chance to watch a repeat of a repeat 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
12 Dec 2025 22:03:22
Deer hunter winter.
12 Dec 2025 22:05:35
Great film! 👍.
12 Dec 2025 22:26:17
Bowie there's so many mate, but i do love a good Scott film, always gritty and generally a fantastic cast. Deer hunter was last century. 🌳.
12 Dec 2025 22:30:34
I don't know what it was about the Deer Hunter, but I really couldn't get into it. Honestly, I found it a bit boring.
12 Dec 2025 22:40:47
You need to watch one flew over the cuckoo's nest winter 😁🤣🤣.
12 Dec 2025 23:10:27
Like me Gangsters "Old School", "Get Carter" Micheal Caine BBC 2👍.
12 Dec 2025 23:12:26
You need to get a life DTP 😴🌳.
12 Dec 2025 23:20:16
Excellent film.
13 Dec 2025 00:00:39
Now, there's a film I love DTP. Ahh, juicy fruit.
13 Dec 2025 18:51:03

{Ed001's Note - sorry mate, can't put that up, we have been given our final warning in terms of thing. They are really clamping down on it and would genuinely take the sites offline if we get caught recommending avoiding copyright infringement.}
13 Dec 2025 19:26:04
I understand ED001, cheers anyway 👍.
{Ed001's Note - if they stopped ripping people off, they would find people would be less inclined to try and find ways around it. But we have to abide by the rules, sorry.}
17 Dec 2025 15:53:28
Anyway dtp, geordie classic 👍.
11 Dec 2025 21:32:35
Job done tonight. Not brilliant, but good enough.
As a total aside, for those of you interested in the subject - I've been using any (rare) spare time that I've had over the last 6 months to investigate the Jack the Ripper case. It has intrigued me for years.
So many potential suspects. I've looked at them all in depth and with my ex-Int Corps head on, I plumb on a guy called Albert Bachert/ Backert as the killer.
Mrs Legolas got me really thinking about this ages ago when we watched a documentary about the subject. Stokey will know all about this - she said that in the majority of murder cases the victim knows/ trusts their murderer.
Albert was a complete narcissist and loved the media attention around him being a member (and then leader) of the Whitechapel Vigilante Group. As such, he went out at night to 'protect' the local prostitute community. They would have trusted him. Albert also showed up at various Ripper murder scenes 'trying to help' the police. Very much an Ian Huntley character.
Do you own research if you're interested in this Reds. I'm convinced that this guy was the Ripper.
11 Dec 2025 21:56:14
I've watched many programs on theory from historians lego about Jack the ripper
All might have some credibility, but the bottom line is it will never be solved,
11 Dec 2025 23:02:40
Of course not DTP. But we can, however, piece together scraps of info from the time to at least come to a reasoned judgement. I've read a couple of books about the Ripper in the past and also seen a couple of documentaries. Albert was only mentioned briefly as a possible suspect in each.
I've done a load of research and I'm convinced it was him. For me, what his former landlady said about him was very telling.
11 Dec 2025 23:41:55
All ill say is put your evidence forward to a a media group to investigate.
12 Dec 2025 03:13:18
Can see it now, the residential recreation area of the care home, who done it? Lego with his Sherlock Holmes cap on, DTP with his Harry Potter specs on, both of them studying the cards. Then in comes Stokey "Cluedo" 🌳.
12 Dec 2025 06:23:16
The majority of murder victims do know their killer but serial killers are a completely different type of murderer. They kill at random at opportunity and kill strangers not people that they know. Who Jack the Ripper was will never be known.
12 Dec 2025 10:51:25
I'd say it was you winter, in the closet with your French kickers and suspender belt on, and strangulation using your bra 😁.
12 Dec 2025 11:51:57
Hey, Red Robin I taught Clouseau all he knew. I once managed to detect a foul smell in a 💩house I’ll have you know! 😂😂😂👍.
12 Dec 2025 15:44:18
DTP you are looking in the mirror mate😉.
Stokey, you guys could be called the "napping murder club" you can use your superpower to talk the other two to sleep then solve the crimes gently nudging Lego and DTP back to the waking world just in time for Nurses coming to change DTPs nappies. Think there's a book in there somewhere. 🌳.
12 Dec 2025 17:53:49
Carry on crapping with Sid James playing you know who!
12 Dec 2025 19:01:29
Very good Winter! Your posts on this did make me giggle. I can just imagine though, as probably the youngest poster on this site, you being employed as a careworker having to look after DTP, Stokey and myself in that old folks home.
Having to wipe our arses, listen to constant reflections back to 'the good old days of '79/ '80', as well as our inane dementia-ridden ramblings on Jack the Ripper theories.
12 Dec 2025 19:49:03
Legolas I’ve instructed my wife to keep me on that ventilator in the nursing home for as long as possible because I’ve only got to keep breathing in and out to keep the pensions money rolling in ………I certainly wouldn’t want any feckless youngsters getting their grubby mitts on it…. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😇😇.
12 Dec 2025 20:22:19
The achievement is getting to be an OAP winter and getting some of our taxes back 😁.
12 Dec 2025 20:29:35
I knew you reminded me of someone carlo
It's the nose 😁🤣.
12 Dec 2025 21:39:12
Lol, sorry gentlemen i couldn't help myself. Trust me i'm definitely not carer material, pretty sure you need patience for that sorta career and mines solely concentrated on our club🤣🌳.
12 Dec 2025 21:42:56
And DTP i know i knock it but i honestly have the upmost respect for the older generation. Bants and all that😉.
Lego 79/ 80? You lot would be crowing about 58/ 59 FA cup victory😋🌳.
12 Dec 2025 22:32:06
I was only two then winter
Remember it like yesterday 😁🤣🤣.
12 Dec 2025 22:38:06
This is the sort of banter I like - keep it up Winter! Have you finished your homework tonight and brushed your teeth before bed?
I hope, being Cornish, that your marriage with your sister is going well.
12 Dec 2025 22:47:39
I know you do winter, but don't go soft on me now.
12 Dec 2025 23:15:03
Lego for gods sake shes not my sister, shes my cousin. DTP sorry you just don't get me hard. 🌳.
12 Dec 2025 23:16:29
And DTP that makes you 2 years older than my mum🌳.
10 Dec 2025 18:19:48
Anyone read about FIFAs attempt to cause world war 3?
Egypt vs Iran in Seattle, same weekend as the cities Pride celebrations, conservative Muslim nations bringing possibly thousands of supporters to city, what could go wrong? 🤔🌳.
13 Dec 2025 07:51:52
Fans from Iran probably won't be allowed temporary visa's with Trumpty as he thinks he's in charge of the World Cup. He might try and move the match to a different state.
14 Dec 2025 12:49:44
It just makes me laugh Ravers, its not like they have had years to plan this world cup and consider potential outcomes and conflicts of interest. Apparently there will be a huge show showcasing all that's good about pride during the prematch etc. Bet that's going to go down especially well to the millions watching it in Muslim nations. 🌳.
{Ed001's Note - most Muslim nations couldn't care less. It is as much of an issue for most Christians as Muslims. Senegal considers itself secular, but homosexuality is illegal there, nothing to do with Muslims. You really need to get out more.}
14 Dec 2025 16:52:20
Bit rude ed, think you need to get out more mate.
Two conservative Islamic nations, Egypt being one and Iran the other, who both have a huge footballing fanbases. Just because you live in a rich forward thinking Islamic country try walking down the streets hand in hand with another bloke in Terran and see where that gets you.
Having spent several years in Islamic countries that definitely aren't forward thinking i can see their being uproar. 🌳.
{Ed001's Note - you really haven't a clue. You do know nothing about this at all just Islamophonic nonsense. It is very common amongst Pakistani men, for example, to walk hand in hand with each other when walking together. You do know what religion they are right? You are always picking fights on here, abusing others and posting homophobic comments, you really are not in a position to criticise anyone.}
14 Dec 2025 18:09:49
Did someone get out of bed on the wrong side today? So much for neutrality. 🌳.
{Ed001's Note - I am not here to be neutral, nor am I here to continually delete your posts abusing other posters who disagree with you.}
14 Dec 2025 18:19:48
I've asked multiple times if there is an agenda against certain posters and definite favour to others and i think my point is proven. 👍🌳.
{Ed001's Note - you mean that I delete your abuse rather than ban you shows favouritism to others? You really need to go and think about the stupidity of that suggestion.}
14 Dec 2025 18:21:56
PS, i have some driving to do then i'm going to enjoy my evening having watched our magnificent performance today. Cheers Ed👍🌳.
10 Dec 2025 13:23:47
Carlo, I’ve been going to the bog for 50 years mate but it doesn’t mean I’m a great fan of it 🤷🏻♂️😂
Constantly moaning about things you can’t change is very likely to get you down and the people you mix with-enjoy your time and moan about things you might be able to change-it’s not all bad.
10 Dec 2025 22:38:28
Brilliant 2 tone 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
09 Dec 2025 20:29:09
New case arrived in my email inbox earlier. A 37 year old Veteran living in a caravan with massive debts after a nasty divorce. The finance company now wants to re-possess his caravan. Can you even imagine this just before Christmas?
I'm onto this tomorrow. Try to help others this Christmas Reds.
09 Dec 2025 20:56:12
Move his caravan into your back garden. 🌳.
09 Dec 2025 21:21:49
Now, there's an idea Winter. They'd have to get through the Terminator to get to the poor chap.
10 Dec 2025 18:20:09
Well done Lego. What sort of a country are we becoming if we can’t provide for our veterans and the vulnerable. Good work mate 👍👍👍.
10 Dec 2025 19:24:32
Thanks Stokey, I appreciate it mate. But, as usual, I'm not posting this stuff for personal recognition. I'm posting it in the hope that it will inspire at least one reader to 'go the extra mile' in helping others.
IMO, it is a national disgrace how badly Veterans are treated after being 'used' and expected to put their lives on the line serving this country. I'm still amazed and disgusted that so many Veterans have to rely on charities to even survive post-service. UK politicians, past and present, of all colours should collectively hang their heads in shame on this subject.
10 Dec 2025 23:02:31
Just brilliant lego, no other words 👍 probably as a veteran, will end up on streets. As immigrants cosy up to top hotels this xmas.
08 Dec 2025 23:40:58
Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that 'my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge. ' 🌳.
09 Dec 2025 20:25:18
“Democracy is the very worst form of Government apart from all the other types that have been tried from time to time “ Sir Winston Churchill said.
Red, anti intellectualism is a tool from every tyrants playbook from time immemorial mate. And every Trumpian would be tyrant. It’s why “dumbing down “ and “fake news” are the modern buzz words.
It’s no coincidence that the intellectuals were amongst the first to sent to the Gulags in Stalin’s Russia and the concentration camps in Hitlers Germany.
The last thing any aspiring “Dear Leader” wants is a free thinking and challenging section of society. It’s why all the major Education Acts were passed in the middle to late 19th century in the UK following the European Social Revolutions of 1848, the so called “Springtime of the Nations”. Before then, what limited Education was available in the UK was provided by the Church, particularly of the dissenting type, the same people who had settled in America and won Independence in the American Revolution.
The last thing any Government wanted was a troublesome educated working class. So, they brought it under State Control as soon as possible.
The Church dissidents were Social Reformers and the forerunners of the Labour Party.
Before 1848 the people in power, for centuries, hadn’t given a toss about Education ( apart from the upper echelons mainly the Aristocracy). Suddenly, with the Industrial Revolution following the Agrarian Revolution, the last thing the money makers wanted was a bout of free thinking and an educated working class. Even worse, they might demand universal suffrage and vote any Government out of power or seize it anyway…….
09 Dec 2025 21:06:55
Yes the church has a lot to answer for as does the cult of anti-intellectualism especially in the United States. Just watched the interview with Trump regarding the Ukraine peace process and when he said European countries were slowly being eradicated by migration i couldn't help but laugh.
Wasn't the States founded on imagination? Coming from a country that's barely 300 years old give or take a few, have they forgotten where they come from? 🌳.
09 Dec 2025 21:23:19
I've just rang for an ambulance after reading that Stokey.
10 Dec 2025 01:43:00
As a little side note, is it just a coincidence that Venezuela has the biggest proven oil reserves in the world? 🤔🌳.
10 Dec 2025 17:18:37
Don't normally join in political stuff, but we do have to very watchful over Populism sweeping up frustrated, angry, bitter, people offering them what might ostensibly be a better world; but I fear would be authoritarianism!
Trump is playing his hand now. Wait for the next 'big'anouncement from the toilet of AFO with the flush still splashing away!
Really good posts from both RRR and Stokey!
10 Dec 2025 19:18:20
Red Robin just a few thoughts on your post.
Firstly, if Trump was serious about drug smuggling he wouldn’t have granted a pardon to the former President of Honduras ( and associate of Joaquin “El Chappo Guzman currently serving life plus 30 years in a high security prison in Florida for running a huge drugs empire) Juan Orlando Hernandez, extradited, found guilty by a US jury of massive drug trafficking and sentenced to 45 years in prison just 6 months ago. That’s in addition to around 100 others convicted of Federal ( ie serious) drugs offences amongst around 1700 pardons granted in just under a year in Office ( mind you Sleepy Joe holds the record for pardons at 8000 plus including many of his family).
Fentanyl is NOT smuggled into the US from Venezuela on the boats that are being strafed. The chemicals for the drug ( mostly legal) are sent from China to Mexico and Columbia where they are turned into fentanyl then smuggled across the US Mexican border. The distance from Venezuela to the nearest US landfall is 1100 miles. Those boats have outboard motors only and would need 10 to 15 re fuelling stops at sea to go that distance. They are mostly fishing boats, or at worst, low level fuel and currency smugglers to other Central American countries ( Not the US).
It’s basically murder at sea and a war crime inspired by Trumps desire for regime change in oil rich Venezuela.
There are signs of uneasiness amongst American legal circles. They have brought in laws absolving the military from war crimes liability but unfortunately for Trump and Hesgeth it won’t be tried in the US but in the International Court in The Hague which takes precedent and will follow the precedents set at Nuremberg and Tokyo that following orders is no defence.
It’s why the Royal Navy have quietly and discreetly withdrawn from that particular operation and are not aiding and abetting the Americans by sharing information and intelligence for fear of complicity.
It’s also no coincidence that the boats are destroyed and survivors finished off. They don’t want any witnesses. With an entire battle fleet in the area they could quite easily board these boats and take prisoners but they know they won’t find any fentanyl on board, which removes Trumps excuse to invade Venezuela and seize the oil.
Ps you’d better call that Ambulance back Lego! 💤💤💤.
10 Dec 2025 20:00:09
Thanks Norfolk! By the way I’m increasingly getting alarmed by the parallels between Trump and Hitler.
Both democratically elected
Both fostered the myth that they weren’t defeated (Hitler on WW1 Trump on Bidens election win)
Both survived assassination attempts
Bith blame ethnic minorities for their countries woes
Both offer desperate and down trodden people a vision of a great future golden age
Both expansionist and militaristic.
Both wrote books explaining their world view, ( Mein Kampf and The Art of the Deal ( although Trumps book was ghost written ) ……
The only differences I can see is that Hitler was a soldier in WW1 decorated and wounded, Trump a draft dodger and Hitler hated Russia Trump loves it….
10 Dec 2025 22:20:38
Yep Stokey, it was kinda what i was getting at, sometimes mate it's honestly better to agree and leave others to do their own research on the matter if interested. Also kinda (kinda i'm loving this word lately, bloody teessiders influencing my country bumkin dialect) goes back to Anti-intellectualism. See it in the media from one angle and believe. 🌳.
10 Dec 2025 22:28:29
And by the way Stokey that's not me telling you to stop and restrain your detailed posts, i love em and if i had the patience to type i can talk forever🤣🌳.
10 Dec 2025 22:48:59
Are you Stokey and Norfolk brothers? In A&E again now with my eyes bleeding profusely.
11 Dec 2025 10:49:38
As a rough rule of thumb I generally follow the old saying that you believe nothing you are told and only half what you read ( until you’ve made your own enquiries). Served me well in the Police and life generally.
By the way, as I predicted and right on cue, oil tanker and contents seized by the US fleet. I’d imagine the next step will be to “arrange “ a provocation (perhaps Venezuelan air force plane coming too close? ) to facilitate ground invasion by overwhelming American Forces?
It’s the American way of war. Like the USS Maine destroyed in Havana Harbour in 1898 ( 200 plus American dead) and blamed on Spain whereas in fact one of its boilers blew up.
This led to the one sided American Spanish War ( lasted 4 months, the US Government and press fuelling blame with the motto “ Remember the Maine and to hell with Spain) Spain defeated and Guam, the Philippines, Cuba and Puerto Rico taken over by the Americans. History always repeats itself…….
If you get time have a read of “The Untold History of the US” by Oliver Stone ( film director Platoon etc ) and Peter Kuznick. Also have a look at some of Al Murray’s stuff ( pub landlord but also Oxford history Graduate) particularly “Command. How the Allies Learned to Win WW2”.
11 Dec 2025 11:06:20
Sorry Lego, at this rate, mate, you are never going to get out of hospital…. 😂😂😂🙄🙄
Norfolk, I know you like your Dickens, mate. I’ve just finished reading “Demon Copperhead” by Barbara Kingsolver, a modernized version of the great “ David Copperfield “ set in the modern druggie world in Virginia USA.
It’s a hard but brilliant read. I liked her “Poisonwood Bible “ from a few years ago too.
11 Dec 2025 11:10:54
No, Legolas sir, but I do enjoy his contribution and determination to inform us. I hope this site doesn't count as social media as DT will ban him from the States for the World Cup, after the last excellent post from him.
( This post is better than the efforts of my very average lecturers at University in the 8o's).
Getting seriously worried about America now and how the media is being used RRR!
Your posts make me chortle as well Lego!
11 Dec 2025 13:43:59
Norfolk I’m afraid we have decided not to go to the US whilst DT is President already. We did have trips to Savannah and Charleston plus cruises down the Mississippi and St Lawrence Seaway but they have been put on a back burner sadly …….
We are perhaps being over cautious but with his latest dictums on social media checks going back 5 years etc it’s a no from us.
Recently read Julia Boyd’s excellent book “Travellers in the Third Reich…the Rise of Fascism through the eyes of everyday people”.
The Nazis were very welcoming to us Brits for all sorts of cultural and political reasons and everyone forgets that WW1 was fought mainly in France with very little if any damage done to Germany ( unlike WW2 when it was flattened).
Hard to imagine that Hitler personally was very welcoming and charming.
There’s an amazing photo in the book of Adolf posting and smiling with the family of a respectable Bournemouth GP including his 4 daughters. The Doctor proudly displayed it in his Surgery Waiting Room for years until War broke out and the local Bobby popped in and suggested it might be advisable to hide it somewhere for the time being ….

Yes, Stokey it was the ruling classes that seemed to have a fascination with the far right, and it seems to be trying hard to bear its teeth in Europe ATM. Watching closely as new people are emerging with smooth PR and crisp haircuts, (and financial backing from nefarious individuals. ), thinking of the French guy with Farage!

Bowie will be in floods of tears reading what you've put about his messiah, King Lord Trumpty. Trumpty's issue with Venezuela and Nigeria is purely about oil. Nothing else.
{Ed001's Note - Venezuela's large cache of rare earth minerals, which are currently untapped, would beg to differ.}

The old colonial era is in fashion. 🌳.

Ed 1 Venezuela is, like the Middle East, cursed by its geology. Apart from the rare earth it has an estimated 300 BILLION barrels of oil reserves and produces only a fraction of that due to lack of investment and infrastructure. Chevron, the American company, extracts around 20% of what is actually brought up but they, and Trump, see a win win situation. Trump, with his serial insider trading expertise will create enormous personal wealth for himself and the US will, with a new compliant Venezuelan Government installed, get cheap oil on its doorstep with non of the volatility of the Middle East to worry about.
Once he’s installed his own “oligarchs” it will be straight out of the Putin playbook….
Of course, many Venezuelans ( and some Americans) will have to die before that comes to pass but I guess that s just “collateral damage “….
{Ed001's Note - many already have died and been dumped at sea sadly. What a crap world we live in.}

Its collateral damage if the US or their allies do it, Stokey. Any other country does it and its murder. Western hypocrisy and sanctimony at its finest.
12 Dec 2025 19:45:00
Ravers, mate, it was meant ironically hence the quotation marks. It is murder and the deaths of around 80 people on the boats is a war crime as I posted earlier. Hence the order to kill a couple of survivors from one of the destroyed boats ….
like any gangster they don’t want witnesses to appear at the International War Crimes tribunal in The Hague in the future.

Different sport but the next Head Coach to be sacked will be that lazy slovenly gum chewing reverse baseball cap wearing waste of space Agent Brendan McCullum
No tactical brain whatsoever GO NOW.

Baz ball and Ange ball getting the same results.

We never play well abroad whoever coaches or plays.

Good post from Legolas down the thread needs a mention. Used to be a good site to chat on but quite personal attacks from the odd member or two has made me now mainly post elsewhere.
It’s a broad church being a Forest fan, but there is one poster in particular that I am sure is a Derby fan in disguise- just here to sew division and disruption without contributing anything meaningful.
You know who you are and yes you’ve been rumbled.
06 Dec 2025 17:24:17
Come on redfrog tell us who is a sheep
Don't leave everyone in suspense.
06 Dec 2025 20:46:25
Come on redfrog we won't laugh😁 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
07 Dec 2025 11:36:27

07 Dec 2025 15:13:26
I, d like to see him Barrrrrred!
07 Dec 2025 17:33:00
I'd like to see who redfrog thinks it is?
Going to be hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
07 Dec 2025 17:40:50
Frog - I rumbled Stokey as the impostor in our midst a long time ago.
07 Dec 2025 19:28:01
I think it's redfrog himself lego
Always complaining about the club? 😁🤣🤣.
07 Dec 2025 20:05:19
I don't think so DTP. Have you noticed that Stokey is always trying to blindside us with his long, historical/ poetic posts? This is just a diversion technique. I met with the guy once and, frankly, I'm sure that it wasn't his cheap aftershave that made him smell of, umm, sheep-dip.
07 Dec 2025 20:09:14
It can't be the sandman aka Stokey. 🌳.
07 Dec 2025 20:56:52
It must be me then? 😁😎🤣🤣🤣.
08 Dec 2025 08:06:59
Do you mind Lego? I ve always used “Stallion” aftershave since I first tried it at Skeggy and a donkey followed me home …….
08 Dec 2025 12:42:42
Can donkeys live in pigstys? Sorry below the belt i know but couldn't resist 😉🌳.
08 Dec 2025 17:37:32
Winter - Stokey knows me well enough to know that I'm joking when I say to you, if pigs could fly they wouldn't need cars.
08 Dec 2025 17:48:27
I do admire the work of the Flying Squad.
08 Dec 2025 18:23:10
Anyone fancy Saucisson, bacon et d'Arles? 🤤🌳.
08 Dec 2025 19:03:51
I’d much rather be a member of the Jovial Crime Squad than the Serious….
08 Dec 2025 21:43:18
You have to be very careful when dealing with pigs though Winter. Under-cooked pork can infest a human gut with serious bacteria. I prefer cooking any pigs that I come across very well done on the BBQ. Delicious, and I also view it as a service to society.
(Sorry Stokey - dry Squddie humour).
09 Dec 2025 10:45:12
Poor little piggies, have to watch what we say or we might have an Animal Farm style situation on our hands. 🌳.
09 Dec 2025 19:47:15
Frog - I've just re-read this thread and thought just how much it emphasises and builds on both of our original posts. Let's face it, there can sometimes be a thin line on this site between p'taking banter between people who like and respect each other, as opposed to open hostility between posters who don't take to each other.
We are, indeed, a broad church being Forest fans. All of us are individuals and some, naturally, won't get on with others. All I'm saying is that we are all part of 'the same clan' and I suppose it's down to each individual's boundaries. Personally, I just don't like open hostility. No need for it IMO.
10 Dec 2025 15:38:07
A bit of banter is alright, but sometimes it's just relentless b"lls""t, between posters about the same thing!, the site has lost some very good posters because of it🤷.
10 Dec 2025 17:40:29
I agree with you Mossy. I particularly miss Creepy - I thought his post-match analyses were brilliant. Thank goodness we still have Chim to fill that void!
11 Dec 2025 23:06:26
Crepy was well gone lego before your time mate
He was an ex policeman I believe
Edd invited him to give his view after games and they where pretty accurate, had an avatar of a black labrador
Redinexile and his famous lucky red pants?
Loved him to bits and dearly muss him
But funniest thing on this site ever was steve the taxi driver years ago giving a free ride from Birmingham airport to what he thought was new fench signings for forest 🤣🤣🤣.
