    I'm from a Romany family. Dad's side of family. I'm disgusted by this lot today...i'm young myself but i can't stand a lot of them...even some in my family **** me off. When i boxed i just wanted my dad there that's it. I can't get angry that stereotype when you got ****'s doing what they did. I got told by someone who was there what happened...sounded horrifying. Looks like they won't let boxing back there by sounds of what i got told...Amateur boxing that is.

    Errm, everyone else paid and stayed. Do you think it could be termed 'tax' of some sort....:patsch
    Thats why the traveller fecked off, so he didn't have to pay, nothing new from then until now. Still thieving dirty *******s the lot of 'em.

    Im not one for unfair generalisations but I lived next door to a traveller site for 19 years and although there were one or two who were ok (I used to box with them) the vast majority were ****ing horrible.

    Burned cars everywhere, people getting burgled (and the travellers making no secret of who did it). If you dared walk your dog in the field next door you would get bricks thrown at you or pot-shotted at with air rifles. Nice!

    The worst thing that i have ever done is to come on Forums and wind people up,to get a reaction,to make me laugh.

    I'm a traveller & the things you say about travellers being robbers (the lot of them) is wrong,you just cant go about saying things like that.Not every Gyspy/traveller are bad.

    Dont get me wrong,you can say what ever you like about travellers and to be honest,i dont give a toss,i have been hearing it for the past 28 years,WE manageto get over hitler,then i think we can manage to over come some Racist comments.

    What makes me laugh is,that everybody seems to have met the very worst of travellers,i find it hard to believe.I would guess that some people havnt actully met travellers but on basing your opinions on somebody else experience.

    Surely somebody has met the decent travellers out there ? Anyone ? :rofl

    Know quite a few travellers myself mate, apart from a few of them being a bit "dodgy" (who isn't at some point?) they're some real good people.

    What I admire about travellers is how they stick together and its almost like a closed shop with them to anyone else but this can also make non travellers weary of them and dislike them if that makes sense. For instance the travellers I know I know through a well known bloke who is good friends with a well known traveller family round here, I doubt if I hadn't been introduced by them that they'd bother to talk to me, but like I say in a way I admire that about them its like a them against the world attitude.

    :good

    The worse thing about it all is the london cyps got cancelled. So no one from london will be able to win a title and the rest of the bouts were cancelled with no replays.

    But, gypsys are the scum of the earth good for nothing tax dodging criminals.
