I was about to post that 'Dave' would probably beat him but I was getting Haye confused with Audrey Harrison for a second!

From 30 months ago.

David Haye is devouring a green salad in a quiet corner of an Italian restaurant close to his Kent home and explaining why, six months ago, he took the decision to become a vegan.

"I watched a TV documentary about how animals are farmed, killed and prepared for us to eat," he explains, shaking his head. "I saw all those cows and pigs and realised I couldn't be a part of it any more. It was horrible. I did some research to make sure I could still obtain enough protein to fight and, once satisfied that I could, I stopped. I'll never go back."

There really isn't any point about talking about sport anymore on this forum is there?

Especially trying to give people the heads-up about a FREE, TERRESTRIAL heavyweight fight - seldom seen on tv these days.

Sheesh.

Good god, you really do have a short fuse don't you!?
Report Tommy Toes • January 16, 2016 2:15 PM GMT
Not at all, I'm just bloody sick and tired of you making everything a 'political' thing about vegetarianism - when you were a fully-fledged meat eater till about 63 years old (or older).

You're worse than an ex-smoker spouting your nonsense.

Live and let bloody be, kenny.

I'm just promoting a bleedin' FREE HEAVYWEIGHT BOXING MATCH ON TERRESTRIAL TV!
Report kenny mann • January 16, 2016 2:22 PM GMT
Well, anybody can see it's a free boxing match by the header and opening post.

I was merely demonstrating that you don't need meat protein as you said in your 13.38, by highlighting Lennox's comments on the subject.

My 13.37 post would have been my last on the subject if you hadn't posted your 13.38, and you needed correcting.

Over and out!
Report dustybin • January 16, 2016 2:22 PM GMT
Is this channel actually free?
I dont pay a penny to sky and just use the box for my ruk subsciption. It picks up all the normal channels like bbc etc but dave is scrambled?
By 'free' do they mean 'part of the standard subscription package' type free, i.e. actually a subscription channel just like ATR?
Report Tommy Toes • January 16, 2016 2:25 PM GMT
Oh do give over you silly old sod, kenny.

I was making a light reply at you saying 'at his headiest' - but you had to take it to the next 'right-on veggie' level.
What for, I really don't know.

Give it a rest.
Report Tommy Toes • January 16, 2016 2:26 PM GMT
Dustybin - yes, it's free.

I don't have any of the Murdoch corruption and only have terrestrial Freeview: it's free on Freeview Channel 12.

Dustybin - any modern tv within, say, the last 6-10 years, comes with Freeview as a 'standard'.

The only need to buy a box is if your tv is older than those sold without Freeview installed.
