My twice weekly laugh at the Wurzles thread had a bit of life in it perhaps i can start it again next week.
I was on that bus to Upton park one of the legendary City away trips of my life.
It was from the Landsdowne pub turns out Roger who ran the pub/bus was a season ticket holder down the Jacks in their 80s 1st division days.
All seeing eye and his financial advice, good poster driven away by the bully boy squad.
A bit niche, but I can remember a series of posts by splott David where he was going on about some genetically modified flu strain in Ukraine, that was definitely going to kill everyone in Europe
I even miss Cedric's predictions of defeat for the coming fixtures.
Thornhill Blue?
i think so, yes. I think his "system" worked well in the first season, but then in the second season it turned to sh!t. It may have coincided with the retirement of Fergie. I think i remember him pretending that the "blip" (which was just normal variance) was some sort of anomaly, but in fact it was a perfect exercise in proving that any system that ignores value will fail.
It wasn't like we'd failed to warn him either. Absolute car crash of an idea.
I never gambled on any of the advice luckily, (although the poster in addition to OM were banging on about gold a lot at the time!!) but, he/she was a good poster who added a bit of fun to the board, and was driven out by the bully squad who add nothing to the board other than hate, (and which, 2 of them have contributed to this thread since i mentioned the poster in question).
Best investment i ever made was a boring house in south east london that almost doubled in value in 18 months, but after that it was a Gold ETF that I put some money in around 2008 and pretty much forgot about until i needed to cobble together as much monet as possible for a house deposit in early 2013. And I am pretty sure it was someone on this board that at least put the idea in my head.
