Re: Other former messageboard wind up merchants
Calonlan it was Adz32.
The Lone Gunman wasn't a wind up merchant but he was a strong defender of his views
bailed out over Tan and red but still goes to the odd game. Sits two rows in front of me
when he does.
Dr Tim Muff was a a man with physical health issues. Had many a ruck with the " toryboys "
from back then.
Surprised Dai Splott has yet to be mentioned. Now he DID have mental health issues to
go with his anti - semitism and anti - americanism.
Too many newbys on the site I suppose.

Good to have newbies.
Dai Splott was off his rocker. Probably still is. If you held a view that differed from his, then your mind was simply poisoned by main stream media. Head case.

Hovis was filth, though. Threatened a load of posters, myself included. Most people ignore it and get on in life, others use it to score petty points.

He once sent me a PM saying he knew where I lived and that he had some "family" in Ely. What a nutter :hehe:

And Perry Fenton - another with mental issues
Mick was ok when you got to know his ways. I did get a few threats from him first though :hehe:

I think you mean Gwynedd Blue. I was tempted to meet up with him as I spend a lot of time up that way in the summer months. Glad I didn't know as his last posts were weird.

Re: Other former messageboard wind up merchants
There was Bryndon who claimed he used to spend his holidays abroad surveying locals about whether they had heard of Cardiff or Swansea. Argued Swansea's reserves were a top-6 PL team.

There was also that Walter Mitty character who used to post endlessly bragging about his extravagant and exciting lifestyle.
Can’t remember his username, another CCMB oddball.

Did n`t the Blue Plato have some sort of "unbeatable betting scheme"
or was that another poster?

That was Blue Plato. A complete cretin.
This would be a typical post
"Following last week's £200 bet on Celtic to beat Ross County, I now have added 67p to the kitty. The kitty stands at £1000.67 with us having started with £1000. This week we have the following Cup games as potentials for our bet.
Arsenal v Spurs. I fancy Arsenal for this one, and they are good value at 4/5
Liverpool v Everton. I fancy Liverpool will win this one, but are not so good value at 4/5.
Manchester United v Ely Rangers. Tough one to call this, but I think Manchester United will win, based on them being top of the Premier League, and half of the Ely Rangers team can't get the time off work. Manchester United are 1/300 to win.
After considering all my investment options, I have decided to go for Manchester United to beat Ely Rangers. I am sacrificing £300 of my kitty which means we stand to win £1. This works out at a 100.03% return on the investment".

One of his "bankers" then would fail to romp home as expected and we wouldn't see him for a week or so.

I had a long argument with him after he claimed his betting investments were returning 110%. This was when his kitty stood at £1100 having started at £1000. I politely said that is actually a 10% return and he got angry very quickly. :hehe:
