    It was rude
    but a classic example
    of how far Wilson would go
    and strangely his melting phallus
    is etched into the historical
    patchwork of this site

    The three bad ees at one time
    were Fist TAPK and Wilson
    all neck and neck in
    the Badness stakes
    and all lost their necks :mrgreen:

    Some of those truffle warriors
    and ladies fit for a beauty pageant
    may have been before your time Nath 8)

    I hope people will have
    their own far better memories
    of these characters than my
    snapshot of them which did most
    a serious misjustice.

    One liners can never capture
    a character just give a whiff
    or essence of them.

    Each of the stalwarts above
    deserve a whole chapter and
    verse and some possibly a book.
    They are all extremely precious
    to these pages and precious in their
    own individualistic right.
    God bless them all
    the long the short
    and the gored :|

    Particular misjustices to
    Tete Rouge, Billion and Mr E
    I splashed a bit of paint and got
    the wrong colours

    Fist also had a stint as Aristo or something like that 316 post in 5 months a bit slow that for fist.

    http://www.theracingforum.co.uk/horse-racing-forum/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=52350

    Fist has given up backing his own selections at present and is latching on to Rory who is currently top of the Sporting Life Naps table.

    http://www.sportinglife.com/racing/naps-table

    My memories of Rory on here were is avatar of Charlie Brown and signature of ‘handsome is as handsome does’

    http://images.all-free-download.com/images/graphicmedium/charlie_brown_133848.jpg

    If only Charlie had an Orange jumper on instead of a yellow one then he could of been the jockey of Canford Cliffs and Richard Hughes could of been a children’s TV character. :mrgreen:

    Gerald’s Racing-for-change lookilikely photo of the curly poop was a masterpiece which done well not to be deleted imo, not something Drone would want to look at whilst having black pudding for breakfast he might of spat his Yorkshire tea over the keyboard. Gerald must be the record holder on here for the most posts in one day, he could belt out at least 5 in a minute but the stats on the races etc were all quality to go with the quantity.

    Yes Aristo brings back memories
    might that be Hamlet ? and
    you are bringing back some
    good stuff there Nathan

    Rickly you are quite right
    The candlelight worker Max
    was an omission but I have
    no idea about Zorro’s wife

    I suppose Pilsen might have
    had a bit to say and Drone
    takes interest in the history
    but three or four people don’t fill
    a cinema and we are down to the
    bones gentlemen and cubone got out
    when the going was good and he never
    could master watching the flies
    crawl up the walls and more
    excitingly watching them crawl down

    I loved reading Ken’s pen work he had a sharp tongue and wasn’t afraid to use it. I found his mussing witty and humorous and although he was very close to the mark and at times over stepped it, I thought he was mis-understood by many who read too much into his postings and took them literally when in truth Ken was only having a giraffe. The problem Ken had like many who get their heads taken off is knowing when to stop and Ken didn’t know what stop meant and took it further with Conundrum. :lol:

    Gamble a

    real

    villain missing would have been Armchair Jockey Previously known as Letsgetracing, Media Greko and Equitrack who volunteered to run the Cheltenham Festival competition the year The Young Fella won it and not only did the Armchair not delivery the promise of a prize which waz some up-to-date computer but didn’t even do the scoring for about a month or two after the event………… :evil:

    Ugly Mare had something in common with Ugly Ken
    They were both keen on greyhounds
    and she was last seen coming out of trap 2

    Prufrock is training ginger up on blog skill writing perhaps?

    Eclipse First was a mystery disappearance which remains
    unsolved

    Eclipse , is a very bad miss on this planet ….her posts were bordering on epic status …although she could be quirky , as an ex betting shop employee , her insights were just so on the money

    I am guessing she took a view and decided this outpost was not for her ,which overall was a shame …I am guessing corm’s commercial view was not shared , but hey he has to try and keep it going , and although it has taken me a long time to come to terms with that , its a reality , he (corm ) deserves a lot of credit for keeping the outpost alive ….

    Prufrock is a non poster for me ….the mathematics of horse racing is doing for racing what the same thing did for online poker….killing it stone dead ….all sports need colour and spice …maths dulls it to the point of extinction

    Thanks to James W I stopped contributing to RUK , his monotone on times and maths just killed my mute button !!!

    Ugly mare ….nuff said

    Pilsen was a lot of things ,,,but you cannot slag off the forum that provides you with your entertainment and fun ,,,even if at times some of his prods were close to the bone

    I guess he forgot he was just a small soldier in the great galaxy star wars that is TRF ….you just cannot be doing it

    Lets hope he learns how to

    march

    better when he returns

    after

    serving his time …

    Sorry Ricky, but I’ve got to comment there.

    Online

    poker in Europe is healthier than ever, with more active players and more big tournament guarantees being smashed than ever before. Look at the latest figures released by The Rational Group for some very positive reading.

    The thing that mathematics killed was

    TV Poker

    . The latest series of The Premier League was missing all the great characters it used to have. Hellmuth, Devilfish, Negreanu, Tony G, Vicki Coren etc are certainly in the old-school of ‘feel’ players, but made for more entertainment than this year’s line-up of socially inept online maths geniuses.

    I’m still looking forward to your list of scurrilous posters, gamble. Make sure Armchair Jockey takes a high ranking!

    armchair jockey – thanks for the memory and point taken – yes had slipped my memory

    Ugly Mare – has posted not that long ago I think. Much enjoyed her America thread with the big Ostermeyer modelling in walking boots.

    the list

    not huge expectation but it will be printed having scientific as well as historical interest.

    – I am sidestepping Cormack for the moment as I have no time for
    the inevitable follow up replies and it is still too dark in here – but will match views at a convenient lighter time.

    – TDK yes a drop out and a weighty poster at one time hmmm and not so dark !
