An Observation

[Keef Chedwyn]

Che? He's clearly Cuban

Argentine. Just helps the Cubans out when they're busy.

 

[Bert]

Interested to know why the post in the first place?

Am I missing something? Thought a footballer was just..............................a footballer.

It's an observation, Bert couldn't care less where they come from or what they look like.

 

[Bert]

ok - and if that's the best answer you can come up with to what was a pathetic post then fine.
Just an observation mind ,and yes I know it's a forum...............

We've never really had many non Brits in our teams.
As for the ethnic cleansing criticism, I thought signing JCR put an end to that, pretty sure he got shot of brandy etc because they were twats and not because they weren't white Scotsman

 

[Foxy]

We had a Diego too but he's currently on a nationwide tour of Division 2 clubs.

He's also from Chesterfield, send him back!

I have just observed this thread and see no need to come back to it.

Question; just skimmed through this thread and noticed someone called Bert kept referring to himself in the third person.

I'm all for vivid imaginations, even the odd moment of talking to yourself, but this self-referencing seems.....well peculiar, or is that just me?

No it isn't just you. Sounds like two peas from a similar pod, as referenced by someone earlier.

Interested to see how things develop. There's nowt as queer as folk, so they say.

[longinthe toothblade]

We have no foreign or black players, or is Bert missing something? Unusual these days.

No, but we have more Scots than they fielded at Bannockburn - away the mon

 

[longinthe toothblade]

I'm with Fulwood, what is the point of this thread?

We need more censorship - alternatively we could just lighten up a little x

He is well known BU poster who liked to wind up paperboys and has moved to here when BU finished but hasnt posted in here as often as he did in BU but he has always made me laugh. Trigger Blade will explain more and you will get used to him also his humour

Indeed, but little need for troll type posts either which deserve everything they get - all in the name of free speech of course.

Can see things are going to get a tad interesting.

Indeed you are correct Silent, Bert has all but retired from message boards these days partly due to him spending time in foreign parts. Seeing The Blades play over 1,000 times does however give him the right to express an opinion when he sees fit.

He dared to Zlatan but failed.

I have seen blades of many sizes, shapes and colours. But I suppose I would do when one of my customers sells cutlery.

 

[vorpal blade]

We sold Blackman on the 30th. January 2013

That was suicidal.

 

[sitwell]

Bert started the twats thread ,which is the longest and most thread ever in the world. I also had the pleasure of his company at the sty when he got me a derby ticket one year. Nice man who deserves respect.

 

[Rodders]

Bert also put £2k on the table for a bet with a grunter who ventured onto BU for a bit .... won the bet but never saw the cash from him.

Then he is ok with me.

You mean to say someone on an internet message board made a bet with someone else on an internet message board and the loser never paid up?!?

 

[Silent Blade]

Yes that was about 12 years ago. This Wendy fan, Nigel Shot, had battles with Dave Allen. His alias in BU was "Grandad"

I know, I couldn't believe it either!!

Yes SB. I remember it well.

Wonder if he still has that lilac Merc

It's a self-indulgent affectation. Pinchy has always found it most peculiar and singularly unimpressive. He does not miss our erstwhile contributor in the slightest.

Yes, I'd gathered that Pinchers. I find affection has an amusement factor of all of 15 seconds, so talking about oneself as if you're detached from your body does seem.....weird. I can't think of any other word to describe this affected device. As a journalistic mode it may have merit if writing a novel, but on here? Perhaps Clough ought to consider using this third person device in the dressing room, trouble is, I'm sure the players would be underwhelmed.

If Bert ever gave you any thought he wouldn't like you either.

Bert always talks in the third person.. it's his thing .. has been for years
