Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Depends where you are in the country but normally late April - early May - so don't throw off your winter clothes until the tree is in bloom!

"Nobody who sat through all the evidence will be surprised at the jury's verdicts. The prosecution's case appeared to be flimsy at times. In particular, the prosecution never had an answer to a question that Redknapp and Mandaric asked over and over again. Why would two men who had paid so many millions of pounds in taxes over the years try to concoct such an elaborate fiddle in order to save such a relatively small sum of money? After an investigation which lasted nearly five years, both Harry Redknapp and Milan Mandaric have finally cleared their names."


Members of the Mafia similar to the law enforcement for years.

The reason maybe greed.

Hi Mnamreh,

You say, 'I bet you know plenty of 'slags' who 'got away with it' and a few innocent punters who got what they didn't deserve'.

How true. Far more who were guilty and 'go off' than innocents who did not.
In fact I can only think of 1 person who I thought was innocent who got sent down. The reason was probably that he looked a villain. Mind you he did have a record as long as your arm.

I have lost count of the times I have heard repeat offenders leaving court and greeting their mates with 'I got off'. Strange how few say that they were found not guilty because they had not done it!

Ive heard from the grapevine that our Arry has accepted the England
Job. He has organised a few friendlies ?

That can't be true, he would need 4 more dogs.

Mind you, a lot of people still think OJ Simpson was guilty.
