I love gateaux but not Black Forest. Can't bide it. I do like traditional puddings. Sponges, spotted dick, crumbles etc

Re: GH Charged : Sat Sep 27, 2014 4:47 pm  

I don't care what the pudding is as long as it has no rhubarb or gooseberries in it and its covered in custard.

Last year when I had my usual few days sojourn in Portugal I was taken by my mate and one of his Portuguese contractors into the mountains where we had a three hour lunch, finished by a selection of all the puddings they had, because we couldn't make our minds up we had five puddings each at that sitting then later on as we drove down out of the mountains we stopped at a village near the coast for a coffee in the square, unfortunately the cafe had the most magnificent display of gateaux, cake and fruit pies that I have ever seen, so we had three more - eight puddings in one afternoon, heaven will be like this I know.

I had spotted dick once but the fungicide cleared it up nicely.

£1000 pound fine for GH but why is it not suspended for 12 months, like most other misdemeanour's?

He's got off very lightly IMO.

Surprised it wasn't released as the teams walked out tomorrow.

There's a downside to becoming an apologist for a serial miscreant who is cockily incapable of reigning himself in. You end up residing alongside them in the gutter.

A £1000 fine in this instance isn't even a slap on the wrist therefore it's unlikely any lessons have been learned. GH is usually a shrewd operator but this episode is not one of those occasions.

Every one of the points that were raised about the RFL's Hardaker investigation still need answering

Disagree, GH kicked up a very deliberate media shit storm to highlight the fact that the RFL had nothing concrete and instil the perception that they were gunning for Hardaker.

This made it more difficult for the Red Hall giffers to pin anything on Zak as the harder they tried, the more it would look like the alleged 'witch hunt'. Very shrewd indeed if you ask me and well worth a grand to insure his number 1 will be playing at the start of next season and not serving what would have been a very lengthy ban.
