Not the 13/14 year old who give the fans a bad reputation.

Does that include the group of unaccompanied 14/15 year olds who stood behind me at Wigan last year? Not only did they manage to sneak a bottle of Aftershock into the stadium, one threw up everywhere before the game had even kicked off.

I find on the most part it's the drunken 20-somethings and the gobby teenagers that are the worst.

They haven't heard of ID in Wigan pubs, not from what I've seen anyway

The ones that do my head right in are those that operate the "Let's stand near the drum/screen" merry-go-round. There seems to be a new/different pack of chavvy little kids there every week.

Don't get me started.....

I thought you were one of them?

Nope, the chavvy kids tend to congregate around us when the Sky screen is up. I stay in the same place every week aswell, so I can't be classed as a new one



nice try though

Funnily enough so did I.

If you read what he put, you realise you were both wrong. The drum is attached to be, so it's difficult to stand anywhere but near it. Not sure I'm classed as a chav or a little kid, but I expect some crappy jokes to the contrary....

Bit of both. It is that bum-fluff thing you have got going on.

That was sooo last year.

In fact, wasn't that 2007?

No is the answer by the way

You have been trying to grow it since 2007? Give it up!

Maybe you are referring to the one I was sporting last summer. That was actually a promise to my dad that I wouldn't shave until we got beat, we went on a decent run after that. Then I carried it on when he got ill and I thought it may have been a good luck charm. how wrong I was.

Want to carry this on?

What... the bum-fluff growing? I wouldn't if I were you. It isn't seen as a good look by the ladies.

If "ladies" judge me on my efforts to grow facial hair, then it's safe to say they're stuck up little madams......

Nothing wrong with a few stuck-up madams. Or should that be nothing wrong with sticking up a few madams. I am getting so old now I easily forget.

Ah you see, my facial hair hasn't started growing out my ears yet

Don't worry it will come. Bad things come to those who grow old

See, the way I figure it, is that I can't grow facial hair yet, by time it comes around to ear hair, I'll be long gone.

So there is more than one benefit to this strange thing I have

My facial hair seems to turn ginger-ish if I allow it to grow past the 'rugged stubble' faze.

Same, its a bit of a mystery to me. A lot of my mates are the same, not sure if its something to do with having an Irish heritage or if this happens to everyone.

Hopefully it doesn't happen if you let other hair grow too long, don't want any girls being put off by 'rusty clock springs' down below.

See, this is the thing. I was naturally blonde from birth, but my hair (on my head) turned brown over time. I have no worries 'down there', though I do often like to keep them neatly trimmed.
I'm unsure if it's a case of the soap I use manipulating the facial hair (I used to use some face lotion that made my eyebrows temporarily ginger), or if it's because I'm from (distant) Irish Heritage and/or being naturally fair haired.

Back, Sack and Crack required.

Disturbingly patches of bodily hair are going grey on me and I don't mean on my head. From certain angles it now looks like Billy Connolly.

Thanks for a terrifying mental image.
