    Have you read what they tweeted to her ?
    At the time of those tweets was she supposed to know that they were just a couple of "mongs" as you called them, or should she have done what the Police advised to do, shut her account down or stop saying things that might antagonise people ? The wold is fecked if people cannot go online without being threatened to be murdered, raped , defiled and abused and left for the dogs !
    I have a go at people on here, but I have never threatened to murder someone and throw their insides to the dogs, just because they post about the Rochdale one. I just want them to have their own forum space.
    When they posted the tweets no-one knew who they were, Yes with hindsight , it is obvious that they are just trolls, but at the time they were actual threats of violence towards the woman !

    No, why would it be to you? I was talking about people who use the internet to bully and break the law without considering the consequences.

    I saw them on the news last night and it was clear that they are a pair of ming mongs but that isn't a defence in law. I really think they should use this as a valuable lesson in life.

    Okay I thought you were saying my post was offensive.

    No mate, if I had a problem with something you'd said I would say something to you.

    To be fair, it is a little worrying that the only woman currently on UK banknotes is there purely by virtue of birth and not for having done anything of merit.

    There ought to be room for Sarah Young at least.

    Basically what I was going to say. The Queen being on is as Head of State, but the reverse side is to honour people of note for their achievements, as Gaz say that is rather sad when we aren't honouring any women for they actions.

    Obviously I meant Sarah Young, the DJ who discovered the musical genre Moombahton. I'm assuming this is the same person we're talking about, as I've never seen any of her films. Not all the way through anyway.

    There's a DJ as well? I've not come across the, err, actress before. She certainly seems very popular with her friends.
    You don't post anywhere near as often as you should on here. More's the pity.

    Are we building up to a joke about making this thread a sticky? Mainly so people can see that someone rates me. Nothing to do with Sarah and her...er...DJing skills.

    She's very affectionate and I thank you for pointing me in her direction. I will read everything you post from now on, just on the off chance you mention another of Sarah's 'DJing' friends. And for your wit & repartee.

    I wonder if I sat next to Hemmsy, and introduced myself as Fired off the BBS, who has no intention of knicking his burgers, he'd move, just because I'm a woman, or stop and discuss the game as it happens.
    I love sitting with friends and chatting bout the game, tactics, formation etc. I know, I know what I'm on about. Could he see beyond my gender??
