^ I wonder if they're any relation to Paul

LOL GEORGE. Believe it or not that went through my mind when I posted. Had to suffer it with my mum and dad.

Who is Paul GEORGE?

Has the same surname as the performers in the video, stewy

I get your drift GEORGE. There's another TV show that I vaguely remember. Too PC to mention but my parents had a black and white TV at the time.

What was the name of the Bookies plant, who defended them at every turn on here against efforts to introduce minimum stakes. I remember him vainly trying to appear as a casual and objective observer on the issue - a task which proved way beyond his thinking and communication skills. I would love to know what happened to him. I sincerely hope he failed a plumbing training course at his local tech.

Oops - minimum FOBT stakes!!

I know who you mean blackbarn but the name escapes me. A pure cant of the highest order. Perhaps somebody who's been on here will remember his 'nomdeplume' (spelling)

Oops here. I thought you were going back a while.

Wheres Mart ,did he ever return ?

Mart gone for good. E.Mailed me to say he has 7 joiners working under him now. Has taken PP to the cleaners. (every bet proofed)

Miss him he was a craic tbh ,He must have sorted out how to do the Screamshots Stew

the old nanny, as far as I know he was the second most successful punter on here. Only second to Zodie.

The good old days, when threads containing useful info were deliberately sabotaged, when so-called banter between old pals hijacked useful threads, when insiders were hounded off for giving the game away too cheaply.

Jumpers for goalposts...

Not to mention the pearl-clutching when a gay or lesbian presenter got on the telly, or an attractive woman. The way posters reacted you'd think tv stars regularly leapt out the back of the telly to give them a good seeing-to over the kitchen table.

Clive something was the bookies plant.

What about untied biscuits...thought he was a bookies defender of sorts...and homefortea..disgruntled ex bookie?

salmon, was it clive82?

Rings a bell elise.

well remembered, i'd forgotten about him

Anyone remember Nashwan, whatever happened to him?

Anybody remember Amanda Huginkiss? He was a top bloke. Done well in running but got tired of the forum. I used to keep in touch with him. He was part time but was thinking of packing his job in to see how things went.

Another one was Machiavellian. (spelling) He used to put up some good selections.

Banks and then Banned Banks was a Bookmaker apologist. I believe he was linked with the Gambling Commission in some way. A hideous individual I recall.

Yes parispike, banks is the one that was the biggest apologist.

Fallon's Whistle was entertaining

Lord Newbury was very amusing in the early days of the forum.

What about Harchibald?....I remember he put up 10 reasons why Diamond Harry could not Win The Hennesy...Only to see the Horse bolt in at 6-1...At least he did the decent thing and fooked off from here shortly afterwards.

In a word....Finnish.
