Aye he's harmless enough like. Apparently a canny enough lad away from social media as well although I've never had the pleasure of his company.

An absolute top fella, and someone who I discovered actually uses swear words in general conversation more than me, which takes some doing. I also worked in the USA in 1995 with Steve H*****t, aka toontoon, on a student exchange programme & we went travelling round the states too with a few other lads afterwards. Great times. GTLO was a Mackem on Skunkers wasn’t he? Always remember him being your stereotypical obsessed SMB. Then of course there was Walter/wtdog, who I still see making the odd snide comment on social media when it comes to NUFC. Walter always came across as someone who secretly regretted choosing SAFC as his team instead of NUFC, considering he was from Gateshead and most of his mates were probably black & white.

Within a few hours everyone knew his name, where he worked and his penchant for ejaculating on slippers. Classic Wasn't it virtually taken over in the end by intruding Mackems?

Hovagod Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 (edited) Skunkers was fun and funny at times but it did give off a foul right wing stench. People like Deggsy who was just a vile, militant Tory and Rangers fans and would present it (to the general agreement of others on there, mags and mackem alike) as working class North East pragmatism. May have been a routine for some, and there was dissenters to the lazy racism, but it did become a bit of a stifling atmosphere. I posted on there but couldn’t be arsed with the meet-ups. LotP was actually genuinely funny and canny, we had some laughs together and his NUfC stuff was clearly intended as ridiculous and I appreciated the effort. Walter just seemed like a sad, lost figure unhappy with his life. He used to brag about having articles published in a fanzine. It was hard to not feel sorry for him.
