Anna Swallow's Argus Column

[Dave the OAP]

I have just found this from earlier

Mona said

Probably the Greatest Ever Yorkshireman was a bit too laddish and dressing room banterish for the fair Anna.

Talking about M Adams.

The greatest living yorkshireman? Don't be so bloody rediculous. Brian Close is the greatest living yorkshireman, followed by Sir Geoffrey Boycott and Fiery Fred Trueman.

Micky Adams....PAH

 

[rool]

Yeah but what did they ever do for the albion dave??

 

[Southy]

Boycott is a proven wife beater isn't he? I remember the pictures of his girlfriends face in that trial. Give me Mickey Adams every time over scum like him.

 

[bhaexpress]

Apart Boycott being a woman abuser he was totally self centered and highly unpopular with his teammates.

 

[Zeitgeist]

After his Court appearance in France, Boycott gave the waiting press a classic quote....."I couldn't understand a word the court staff were saying"."They kept talking in French all the time"!!!

 

[South Stand Zealot]

Girl Friday - you could right my column any day, any night !

I come cheap !!!

 

[Dave the OAP]

back to the thread,,,yes OK Boycs was is wife beater, and yes, there was circumstances ( he is suffering from illness - not that that excuses it at all you understand)

How can Adams possibly be the GLY? He is a tin pot little manager, with no success apart from one trophy with us and has walked out on lots of clubs. Good riddance ( and he manages a team of cheats who should have been relegated after playing the administration game)

"sits back and waits for the flak"

 

[Yorkie]

You can't even call Boycott a wife beater because he refused to marry her.


Freddy Trueman is a gent. I have spoken to him

 

[Gary Nelson]

fit bird shit column. enough said

what a quality thread!

Still stand by my original post and for the record GG is a sexist bastard.

 

[Dave the OAP]

...and an awful predictor of horsies

 

[Incredigull]

Don't buy the Saturday Arsegas !!

 

[Guinness Boy]

Where do you start?

Fozzie is/was and will always be a proper Albion legend.

Last time I looked Anna's column was dull.

Last time I looked Harty's wasn't.

Lord B is having a laugh. What - journalists never take comments and quotes out of context

Boycott is a self-centred git and appallingly slow scorer who would never have got near test cricket if he was Australian.

All of the above is purely my opnion.
