    If Dunky is an advocate of Scottish independence, which I'm guessing as he's a proud Scot there's a very high chance of then your behaviour is pretty damn offensive.

    Not that people can't say pretty much what they want here, they can and these forums regularly turn to insults. So on that note, what you're saying makes you seem like a ****.

    Nothing wrong with advocating independence, but to ignore fact is just plain dumb. To you I may seem like a **** but to everyone with half a brain, Dunky is a ******.

    I'm comfortable with that.

    Cheers Reilly & Bigears for looking out for me.

    The guy lost me when he started with the petty insults, so I aint playing ball with him no more. Theres banter, theres debate, there is heated debate, & then theres just being damn offensive. This guy falls into the latter, so Im done with him.
    Anyone with 'half a brain' should take my advice & do the same!

    I mean we got Limond & Billy Nelson in here, & Im sure everyone would much rather read what these guys have to say than watch a scottish nationalist squabble with a (where is he even from in England?)unionist!

    So lets get back to the boxing.

    No problem at all Mr N, sorry if your only opinion of me was cos I was whingeing about Willie & your good self settling for the WBU in this thread, I just got angry cos I think Willie could bring a better world title home to Scotland!

    If im ever moaning about scottish boxing, its only cos I have its best interests at heart Mr N, & thats the truth:good

    As I say, great to have you here.

    I agree with what Ed is saying but I think he needs to change his delivery so people don't get him wrong. The internet can make you appear like a right **** even if you are not trying to me. Tone down a bit Ed. We don't need General Forum **** here. There is a reason why we got people like Limond and Nelson coming here. Its a good place to be for numerous reasons.

    I don't really see the WBU title as the worst thing in the world, especially if it seems limond can't get a fight with the likes of Thaxton or Murray. Any sort of exposure for Scottish boxing should be a good thing i reckon and it gives him a title fight at the top of the bill of he events hes promoting.

    It didn't do Lee McAllister any harm up in Aberdeen when he wasn't exactly getting the opponents he wanted, he got good crowds for his title fights and is a really popular guy in the north east, no doubt helped by his WBU title wins. hope willie does well

    Lee McAllister claimed to be a two weight world champion. he ripped the people of aberdeen of and was a laughing stock outside of aberdeen.
