His subtlety and diplomacy skills, however, would not have earned him a long and distinguished career in the Diplomatic Corps, I suspect.

I wasn’t referring to his rugby knowledge which I’m happy to say surpasses my own.

I have carefully gone through the offending thread and clearly identified the 5 individuals who overly-pushed their woke agenda and turned the ref's head and helped him make up his mind. Their cards are marked - and one has already suffered the Curse of Mute and pleasingly left the party. Mr Glaws Rocker and his pinko liberal views will not be missed IMVHO.
Thank you to the 27 PMs from old (and new) ShedWebbers and their comments of support/unity. I was electronically banned from replying to each one individually. Your support meant a lot - and said a lot to me about team-mates.

PPS : Shedhead was a much welcome tonic during my imposed-Lockdown.

It’s odd how those who most vociferously seek to justify their occasionally offensive taradiddle as “free speech” are quickest to condemn others who don’t fall within in their own narrow mindset.
Anyway, Live and let live. If that puts me on someones rather childish hit list, then I guess I’ll just have to grin and bear it.
(Edit-unless of course your first post was intended ironically, in which case my Bad...)

I only go down on one knee to, a) ask my wife to marry me, b) receive a knighthood from my Monarch c) pay respect to the fallen on 11/11. So far 2 from 3 but I live in hope......
Now, RUGBY.......!
