A resurrection of the Norbold's Hole thread on Easter Sunday ????

Fair comment.

Don't be so pedantic.

There you are we've agreed.

Your digging, I'm trolling.

Your are correct, if it impairs your senses you are technically drunk. but was he 'affected by alcohol to the extent of losing control of one's faculties or behaviour', i.e The Oxford Dictionary definition of the adjective 'drunk'? The FIM slant on this as described by SCB above would mean he was, a BSF member who spoke to him says he wasn't. The Ox Dic defo of the adjective sober is 'not affected by alcohol, not drunk'. I would take this as meaning that the subject has taken alcohol but is not affected by it.

You have put forward a dictionary defininition, fair comment. Pirate Nick has quite resonably put forward an alternative dictionary definition ( Affected by alcohol to the extent of losing control of one’s faculties or behaviour:) which shows that there is some middle ground here but you have unbendingly refuted that definition as it dosn't suit your criteria. Smacked of NPD to me, hence my comment.

Keep digging.

Where have i put across an argument? I have made NO Comments whatsoever as to the parameters of the word 'drunk' which appears to be in debate here I have only drawn your attention to NPD which from your response you seem to be conversant with.

Point proven.

Narcissistic Personality Disorder. Check that out in your thesaurus.

Big time.!! Will be hard to beat at home and should score well at all the away tracks. Might cause us a few embarrasing moments at W rd Good luck to Lakeside this season.

On the previous page you called me pedantic, so I assume that in a sly way I am now a pedantic fool. As regards fools, in a previous post you have criticized posters who resort to calling you a clown when not agreeing with you but in the past two pages you have called people fools who don't agree with you. Please try to be consistent and remember that 'any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain -- and most fools do'.

Lowist form of critikismn pullin up a geeza for poor gramma, Init, We not sitin a 'O' level paper here, just saying like.

He would be as Ward has been banned from riding for the last seven months. Keep up.

You just qualified my post. You take the opinions posted on here by a handfull to represent the opinions of hundreds on the terraces.

There was a good one once about a Scotsman, a Mackem and a Muslim. Or was another Knight.

There's a tendency on here for some members to believe that the opinions expressed on here are shared by the real fans on the terraces.

You been to wimborne rd and asked the fans then?

tbf to sidney he has UNDERestimated the support for Darcy at Wimborne Rd. Why has he made a mistake, do you really think that Matt would be so keen to get Darcy back if less than 70% of Poole fans didn't want him back? Or do you 'know-alls' know better than MF what works at Poole.

He was only allowed to guest as John Davies and not John Davis due to the 45 day regulation imposed by the FIM.

Couldn't happen in any other sport.

He was standing in for the 'off duty' policeman who was absent due to him being 'on duty'.

Been confirmed, new sponsor for 'Off duty policeman' . 'Danish Maid Pork Truncheon Meat'. I'll get me coat.

What next, a sponsor for the 'off duty policeman'?
