5 combs, six packs of razors, 4 haircuts and still no jump. One just doesn't witness combs being used any more in public. In bygone days I used to avail of Brylcreem and Silvikrin and in more recent times 'Wet look' gel. Edited by Willo (14 Jun 2020 1.42pm)

This sort of comment really is rather pathetic I'll bite... No, what is pathetic is that a (thankful) minority of people, albeit a majority in the football world (which is shameful but not surprising) can't seem to see what is actually happening to minorities in the world, even in this day and age. BLM (the protests rather than the political movement/group) is simply about trying to address systemic racism. Minorities are disadvantaged and that's a fact. I'm sure you'll spout "All lives matter" at me or say that this is political but it isn't. It's about trying to ensure that everyone gets a fair crack at the whip in life. ALM can't be a true statement until BLM (and other affected minorities). You're happy to cheer on our black players when it suits, but not defend their civil liberties? People with those views may not be racists themselves (and I'm not suggested they all are), but standing idly by and not fighting for equality is what really is pathetic.

If you can show me a post where I have suggested they should not defend their civil liberties I will apologise. Yes I do cheer on OUR players whatever their colour/ religion etc as I have stated before. Do all lives not matter then? I really don’t understand this argument. I am not a violent person, I have friends of all colours and religions, to me all their lives matter but that doesn’t seem acceptable, please explain why.

Nah not on any scale like africa and the far east. It happens but systemic in what way. Are you an advocate for positive discrimination as in SA. Bygone days yes I remember but now I dont see it. If your good enough and your appearance ,apptitude and attitude are good then you have the same chance whatever colour. If after those criteria are met and still no joy then yes investigate why but dont presume it's because of colour. There is a lot of that going on. Anyhow this is not for this thread so end of.

Negative! I have no recollection of 'Rubber Johnnies' being lubricated to this degree. In bygone days, using one was akin to having a shower wearing a 'Mackintosh' but I am led to believe that advances have been made aiding the penile sensation.
