Paddock Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) Not sure if this may of ben posted or I had a dream it had but the MC dude seems to ring a bell with this but I'll post it anyway. What do you percieve other forum members look and be like? I'll go first. MikeO ....looks like the fella off the fast show who comes out the shed and says "tonight I will mostly be eating tomatoes" or whatever. and is sound to have a pint with and likes to get chips with a pickled egg on his way home from the pub on a Friday night. Matt... I reckon he's 5ft 10 (ish) wears a suit for work and is your average office worker type guy. I reckon he's one of those people in life who is quite caring and always worrying if other people are ok and never judges anyone but can be pranked really easily. "Open your mouth and close your eyes Matt I promise I wont put a spoon full of dog food in it" and open the mouth goes. Mark J B... I know he's a big lad cos he's posted it before. I reckon he had long hair a big beard and wears blue John Lennonshades. I reckon he dresses quite scruffy but it suits him and he looks cool as fuck dressed in old clothes and pulls off the rough and ready look well. Rubeculla... I reckon he's skinny-ish middle aged with thinning grey hair and red mottled cheeks but can tell some funny stories in the pub. Hafnia... Dresses quite sharp, short sleeved t shirts to show iff his guns and tight jeans to highlight his landing gear. Always wears aftershave and is as sharp as a razor but stubborn as fuck with it. MC... Reckon he's about 26-28 lives at home with his parents but only because he's crafty enough to know where his breads buttered. I mean why stress with loads of bills when life us easy at home, right? Dresses up to date, likes a pint and will probably get you in a scrap in the kebab shop at half 2 on a Saturday morning. Fumes at the match slating the lino every time he jogs past and boos McCarthy even when he scores. I can't get a fix on Romey or Lowendsa if I'm honest. I may post some more soon.

Paddock Posted June 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 We should have a private members section where members can opt in or out and post pics of themselves and family etc. If they don't want to they just don't see the section, if they do they can and people can get to know each other better. I've met Patto and been to an away game with him. He's a top bloke and I'm made up I got to meet him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine too, and food, I love nice food. I'm back myself, had 100k on each side of the leg press today for the first time in a long time, my main trouble is time, I literally don't have the time to lift and do cardio. I've taken to doing HIIT training lately because my middle is a bit squashy these days too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnh Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 I walk up and down stairs as often as I can. Usually because when I get to the top I'm not sure what I came up for. Romey 1878 and holystove 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My appetite remains the same but workouts? NahI'm 16 stone snd I'm attempting 2000 cals a day atm because for the first time in my life I'm struggling to shift the fat. I'm 43 now and it usually flies off me with hard work. It's clinging to me for dear life and I'm almost ready to commit suicide every time I have a "cheat meal" I went the greeks the othernight had a mixed kebab and had 5 pints, I was furious with myself for a full 2 days. The older you get the harder it is to burn it off. Edited June 6, 2016 by Paddock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Not a fan of chips and I don't eat eggs but I like the rest of it . Lowendsa & Matt I've met but Mark (Romey) I agree is difficult to read; nice guy who I agree with on a lot of things but keeps personal stuff to himself, which lots on here do and is personal choice, fair enough. I've had loads of pm exchanges over the years with many members (probably because I've always been quite open about personal stuff myself) so I know there's a lot of good guys out there in TT land. We should have a private members section where members can opt in or out and post pics of themselves and family etc. If they don't want to they just don't see the section, if they do they can and people can get to know each other better. I'd be OK with that; I'll put it to the committee and look at the practicalities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally respect peoples privacy and I also realise all mods/admins would be able to see it but I'm cool with that also. I know from my time owning a board you can have private areas (bit like the mod room) and it's easy to set up. You want to be in it and gwt to know other members, maybe meet on a match day or do an away together you can. You want to remain anonymous then you can also. No pressure or big deal just everyones choice. If it's not passed no biggie, it's just an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC11 Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Matt - spends most of his days sat behind one of those temporary office partitions. Brings a packed lunch in a see through plastic box (with his name on).Ham or cheese sandwich cut into 4 triangles, pack of crisps and a green apple. Shortish brown hair, wears his top button done up. Newty - salesman type. Wakes up at 5am (to prepare himself) Crisply ironed clothes, spends an hour on his hair (blonde, combed back). Top button undone. Tries his hardest in work to impress his bosses. Will stab anyone in the back to progress. MikeO - tall skinny bloke. Wears ball stranglers. Enjoys a game of badminton Hafnia - another one who wears ball stranglers. Silver combed back hair balding (but he doesn't think it is). Loves gossip and doesn't mind adding a bit of fairytale to a story. Wears slim fit Levi's jeans, found centre stage leaning on the bar at his local pub. MarkJazzbassist - a generally sweaty hobbit. Long scruffy hair and stubble. Squinty eyes. Wears cheap plastic bracelets and baggy jeans, suffers with skid marks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paddock Posted June 6, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) SteveO... Drives a nice car, either a 3 or a 5 series has a good job and a nice house, done well for himself not rich but ok. Popular amongst his pals, always thinks things through and is often the voice of reason amongst many others. Always first to be rung when everyones going for a pint. Cornish Steve... A ln astute business man who is a stickler for facts and figures. No thinking outside the box here everything has a rhyme or reason to it. Successful in what he does which is why he is so sure of himself and true to his heritage. Makis... From Finland and probably likes fish. Newty... Family man who doesn't take himself too seriously, he goes to work does what he has to do comes home and doesn't dwell on anything. Likes to watch Frankie Vaughan on the sly when his missus is in bed. Edited June 6, 2016 by Paddock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevO Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 Johnh- the wise old grandad. The kind that buys you sweets when Mum isn't looking. Always has a story to tell, gives great advice and probably makes the gravy when the missus does a roast because he can make it without lumps. Louis- the mysterious leader. A bit like Christian Bale in The Big Short. He's in charge, he's super clever, but never comes out of his office and is probably crazy beyond belief. Probably listening to heavy metal in the office while working on the master plan behind the scenes. Pad- away day specialist. Gets on the bus with the lads at 8am, brings all the beers, on the second can by 8:10. Always first to get the round in. Mike- sort of reminds me of my Dad in some ways. Talks sense, plays the devils advocate to fire up the conversation. Defo makes a decent fry up, the kind the missus just can't get right (some of my own issues creeping in there) probably makes a decent cuppa too. Always wearing a jumper.

Cornish Steve Posted June 6, 2016 Report Share Posted June 6, 2016 I personally think that we see two cunning alter-egos on these forums. MC is not the antagonistic doofus he made himself out to be initially but is actually a very smart dude. If he continues this alter-ego lark, though, he'll end up like Anthony Hopkins in 'Magic'. Pad is the other one: He's probably a hideously wealthy fat cat who knows all this insider stuff because he's on the board. He probably laughs at some of our ideas while sipping champagne with Moshiri. I could be wrong, of course, and they really could be right dumb-asses. Then again, dumb-asses usually don't make sense.
