DA Baracus Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 @Stellaboz is an absolutely excellent lad and I'm always incredibly grateful and happy that he's one of my best friends and that he and his brilliant wife are two of my favourite people. I love them both. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for slow reply but I’ve been painting tents for The Queen! Leigh Griffiths in the media today saying “boxers are a different breed and footballers have it ten times easier than them” and that he “wishes he’d done this type of training earlier”. I’ve trained alongside former pro footballers, alongside elite youth amateurs (from clubs who have churned out Scotland players) and they either find themselves out of their depth fitness/motivation-wise or find a new level of fitness and self belief. I’ve sparred pro and elite amateur fighters and the training is almost transcendental such are the physical and mental extremes. Griffiths’ reaction is a fairly typical one. I’m not saying boxers are better sportspeople, simply saying than in my first hand experience that football people in Scotland need to up their game in terms of pushing their minds and bodies to be better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingTON Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Leigh Griffiths is an obvious, well-documented moron though, whose individual failures of conditioning just led to him washing up at 'Falkirk' at a ludicrously young age. His insight on the application of a typical Scottish professional footballers is as irrelevant as boxing is to football in the first place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTChris Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Cross training between sports is always a bit difficult to compare. I also think comparing individual sports to team ones is difficult. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? I know lower division Scottish fitba can be considered quite niche, but spending a day out looking at tractors and livestock? The size of some of these vehicles in the car parks as well suggests they could probably afford to be something less boring as well. Why? I was there yesterday, it was great. My wee boy loves machinery and vehicles and we spent ages going round and climbing into the tractors and combine harvesters. He also liked watching the big animals and the competitions. There are also loads of things we never saw as it’s so big, there was a whole big area for kids we never even got to. There’s also loads of food tents and stalls selling farm produce, as well as clothes and other gear. Quite a few beer and gin tents as well. I really enjoyed it, a great family day. I plan to take the boy to a Highland Games as well soon, I used to get taken to stuff like that when I was a kid, I loved it. Around 190,000 people attend it in total, it’s a huge event. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
