Your 606 Alias

Just a quick on to find out more about the 606 fans.

Why have you nicknamed yourself what you have done already and is there specific reasons behind it?

For example, im mobilemaster8.

I went with this as im a Sales Account Manager and have worked in mobiles and telecommunications for a while now and seem to be very good....okay reasonably good at it hence the phrase Mobile and Master. The 8 is my favourite and lucky number i suppose.

Over to you.

i see some funny names and mysterious ones but want to know more about the man behind the mask!

I picked mine because someone had already picked TRUSSMAN.

Mine is as boring as my articles, mate.

88 = year of my birth
Chris = my name
05 = the year I first started using the old (old, old) version of 606/TMS on the BBC site.

My name, last one was because I brought everyone all the latest Fight News.

Scott, is that the same scott as Tina wedding fame if so welcome back mate.

My name comes from a kid I used to work with. He was a bit of a tree hugging type and did not like putting his own name on the internet as he thought big brother was watching or some such nonsense and always used the name Jeffrey Rowley, as this amused me I nicked it. Turns out, which I did not learn till much later Jeff Rowley is some famous skateboardist type chap.

Happy days. My posting has never quite lived up to that thread.

Here is the real reason for mine. Skip to around 30 seconds. Still makes me laugh everytime I see it.

Freddie:

Mine is a badly spelt wrestler or a porn star with a massive dong.

mine is from one of my favourite comedy shows called "Darkplace" he is a doctor in it

On my day off yesterday I spent an hour or so watching clips of cricketers sledging. For pure persistence alone Mark Boucher on Tatenda Taibu takes some beating.

Seen that a few times. "What's your average, Tatenda? 9? 9.5? We will round it up and give you 10".

Gobby sh*t was Boucher but got to hand it to him, that was great sledging.

Went to France with the red-assassin years ago and enjoyed a plate of snails........

Escargot..............Loved the name and the dish........

But thought Lescargo sounded better........After watching a horse race from the past with a horse with that name...

Been eating snails on here ever since... 

At the time I created my account, Jack Benson was a character that I had just played in a short movie which a friend had made as part of his university course.
The "II" was just put in as part of V2.
I actually created my original 606 account to joke around on the football boards but soon started visiting the boxing boards, realised that there were plenty of great posters who I could have serious discussions with so decided to become a (semi) serious poster myself.

When did you decide that!!

You may have heard it but the other week when KP stepped in for an under fire Bell, Clarke suggested that he had no friends in the England camp. KP's response was that he was the captain of Australia and none of them, particularly Watson who was next to him at slip, liked him. First time I've seen Clarke properly lose it.

No reason really for me. just something different!

Pietersen has many South African friends I should imagine..Like half your "English" team..

Sir Topham Hatt, at your service......

Yep saw that, Clarke is a good captain but let his mask slip with that one. Anyway, why would the Aussies start sledging Bell who was in the form of his life? They really are not that bright.

My little cousin was down to visit t'other weekend and against every sinew in my body, I took him to a local football team for something to do. The opposition manager just happened to be old premiership footballer Neil Shipperley. He is very fat at the moment and some old boy in the crowd was standing right next to him giving him stick all game. Shipperley kept telling him to meet him afterwards to 'discuss' it further. That made the old boy even worse. Shipperley had this habit of stroking his chin as he made notes so the old boy shouted 'which chin are you stroking now Shipperley?". Another time, the ball came flying towards the dugout and Shipperley jumped in the air to stop it flying over the side at which point the old boy gives it "f*cking hell, Shipperley, was that ball made of chocolate". I was falling about by now. Miles more entertaining than the wendyball on offer.

Because none of the others stuck around long enough to get sledged..??????

Sounds like the kind of grief Jason Gillespie was getting in the 2005 ashes.

Still doesn't make it a good decision.

Warne used to call Bell the sherminator and used to send the flat track bully packing regularly...........

Why is it okay then and not now...To do it ??

I hope you are back posting on here scottrf (if that is you), you were a truly great WUM and knew about boxing too.

ONETWO

Working the pads 1-2 1-2 easy really purely boxing related

BTW

If you all look at my join date you will see that I joined 2011 01 26 therefore being the OLDEST member of 606v2 and consequently a PIONEER.

I demand some form of respect on here thats all i'm asking for a little respect.

I suffered a serious leg injury a few years ago in a freak yachting accident, and it was touch and go for a while whether I would be able to walk again. After several months in a wheelchair I progressed to a walking frame, and then eventually I was able to walk short distances with the aid of a stick.

I have always been fiercely patriotic, and with this in mind my grandparents bought me this for a birthday...

http://verko.co.uk/index.php/walking-sticks/gents-canes/union-jack-patriotic-cane.html

I could often be seen walking up and down the promenade at Cleethorpes with it, and became known locally as "The man with the bad leg and the Union Jack patriotic cane".

Obviously that is a bit long for a user name so I took out some of the superfluous words.

I'll always respect a man from Roxbury..onetwo

But then again that was last week wasn't it !!!

good taste Joeyjojo618

So no-one else managed to stay around (your words) but Bell is a flat track bully as he was the only to score runs?

Congratulations, you usually contradict yourself after 5 or 6 posts but you managed it in 2. You're slipping fat lad, you're slipping.

calm down........I never said no one else stuck around.........I just offered it up as a suggestion as to why they didn't get sledged ..

Time at the crease is relative after all..

You're too hostile..and you didn't answer my question.

Not quite the oldest, missy.  I joined on the same date which could mean that I'm your alias, but being neither 13 or a female, I'm fairly sure I'm not.

Someone is getting a spinning back fist..

I would absolutely love it if onetwo and superfly were aliases of each other. Would not even go to the bother of banning either of you.

You flounce over to the cricket board, flower, and I'll follow you. Promise I'll give you some attention over there.

Onetwo once called me out on the old 606 site. A disturbing and pointless turn of events if I am his/her alias.

Bell always had talent, he was just a bit soft. That said I think he'll always be one of these batsmen who has a tendency to go off the boil. Very similar to my favourite batsmen of all time Damien Martyn. Not stylistically as such, but in terms of being brilliant one minute and hopeless the next.

Thank you sean for trying to answer my question..

To be honest given the way onetwo makes his living he is such a master of disguise and subterfuge I suspect you would not know if you were his alias superfly, until it was too late of course.

I saw something the other day about a type of louse that eats the tongue of a fish and then sits in the mouth of the fish eating anything the fish tries to eat (Tina would have been fascinated).  

That's how I imagine onetwo taking over my life.

I genuinely am. I will be googling that later.

After reading some of the classic gems you gave us over the years. -.

Your opinions on boxing used to change as often as the weather. A great WUM you are Truss.

Remember this:

A few months later:

You must have searched long and hard to find a contradiction from Trussy!

Audley v Haye was junk but the argument was that he was as credible an opponent as anybody else at the time which was stated regularly.......

which was the stance of the op at the time I imagine..

The OP being Trussman55,,,,,,,,,,,and not me.......No contradiction..

Selectivity...produces inaccuracy.......An old Roxbury saying..

Stone Roses and Ian Brown fan.

I went with huw because it would be weird to use your real name (mine is fightboxfan76).

One of my favourite movie characters

There is no shortage of Truss' contradictions. That one stuck in my mind as Frankie Pie used to always bring it up.

Simple. I was at my gym, sparring and the trainer said "your jab should be a machine, constantly in their face with the same pressure, same power" apparently I followed his instructions well and he called me "The Jab Machine"

Add 2 and 2

Oh - its MK2 because my initial foray onto the forum was to pretend I'd sparred with Kell Brook, everyone fell for it except Soldier of Fortune and Windy, who proceeded to grill me, make me look like an utter twerp and Windy asked that I apologise because people were angry. They banned my original account so I came back as MK2 - no more bullsh*t.

Plus someone already took TRUSSMAN

Have to remember that 55 was the caterpillar and 66 is the butterfly........

Mate there is no contradiction...........Harrison was a crud opponent but as I said he was as good as anybody else at the time....

I feel like a twerp Jab because i genuinely thought you had sparred some decent named pro boxers.

Was interesting read though....im confused.

Its my name
