In slight tangential defence of throbber, there is a bit of high camp in boxing. Being good at it gives folk the confidence to dress how they want. Just look at some of the stuff folk wear in the ring or at the press conference. A boxing gym can be a “safe space” where emotions are laid bare and folk have the conversations they’re afraid to have in the outside world. The two multimillionaire blokes on tv skelping each other is just the tip of the iceberg and below that there is so much good that comes from the sport.

Yes, if you are actually good at it you can wear what you want. What's your excuse?

To be serious however, there is a lot of outward bravado involved in boxing, but the same insecurities & confidence issues remain. The support you get from other people in a boxing gym is second to none, my head has sadly gone too far to get back into it.

I've never been dumped on my backside like that pair of big dossers.

Folk who's use the app - thus causing quotes to be quoted within quotes - should be made to converse in their own part of the forum. 

You're making the forum untidy, you knaves.

Knaves? Rapscallions and ne'erdowells, more like.

Keeps them all in the same place at least.

Mrs barred me from buying the coat I wanted at Christmas as she said it made me "look like Jay Z". I thought it was very nice.

Football fans should be allowed to throw missiles at players of the opposing team who score, run to them and put their finger to their mouths.

The people who type "haha" in Limmy's Twitch chat when he just breathes or pulls a face need dragged out the back of a dark alley with a dog lead and shot.

Football fans should also be allowed to throw missiles at players of the opposing team who have been badly injured and are being carried off the pitch on a stretcher.

The whole media and social media outpour over the death of Caroline Flack, seems to have ignited an amnesiac epidemic to the fact she caved her boyfriends skull in a couple of months ago. It’s beyond laughable that people are suggesting the CPS were in the wrong to charge her, as a result of her losing a job on some shite reality tv programme.

I thought the Hearts fans in the 80s were very sophisticated when they would launch bottles of wine onto the pitch at East End.

That's a very impressive result for Rangers in Europe, if that stays the way it currently is.

Not really an opinion, that's sadly a fact.
