GM Team wanted. August 20th 2012

Gee wiz,,,,

Seems some folk like a little banter and there are them that don't, they must be afraid....

Okay guys sorry if I have offended any of you and I hope you all have a good day and the weather and your golf is good. But remember this is not just a knock in the park both sides are playing for their forum and should be aware that this is why the day has been arranged.



Play well any enjoy.

To be honest you are really starting to bore me now. Let me just prioritise about Monday........ I look forward to good weather, a good course and some excellent company. I am going to try and win my game obviously, but if I do not it is not the end of the world as I have a life.

Does this bloke really speak for the attitude of people on HDID? If this game really means that much and it is going to turn into world war 3 then it I cant be arsed to spend over 2 hours in my car driving to Kenilworth. I am leaving home at 10:00 and will not be home until after 20:00 spending £30 on diesel, £25 on the round and food makes this an expensive day just for 18 holes of golf on a course that is probably not any nicer than my own course that is 10 mins from my door.

Anyway :rant: over, I look forward to meeting up with the lads I already know and meeting some new faces from GM and HDID also. See you all Monday. :cheers:

Let's all just chill a bit, no need to look at withdrawing from the day.

I'm sure that there'll be no s**t talked during the matches and if HDID want to lynch any of their team should they lose their match then that's up to them.

I'm expecting to meet up with a group of friendly golfers (GM & HDID!) who are all there for a good day, maybe with a bit of friendly banter thrown in, and I'm sure that if the banter gets out of hand then a quick word that it's not appreciated will be respected and acted upon.

We'll all want to win our own matches but win or lose I intend to make the most of meeting up with old and new faces and playing a good parkland course in what by all accounts will be fine weather!
 
MadAdey, it is just a game of golf between two forums on a website. If the lads on GM are anything like the people I've met on HDID over the past 3+ years, then it will be a smashing day, hopefully to be repeated. I've been on several HDID meets, with another one coming up next month in Cheshire. An oevernight stay, which they usually are,and they are fantastic meets with a helluva lot of laughs. I've made some grat friends on the HDID site and see no reason why it won't happen with the GM boys. Only 4 more sleeps!!!

Yeah but when you have one of there players saying on his post that he is a top bloke it makes me question what sort of blokes they are?

Only ever been to one meet before and it was Woodhall and I had fantastic time with the GM lads, both at the course and in the hotel until the early hours. We had some laughs and banter before hand, but this bloke is try to get a reaction. Well congratulations you have one.

This bloke just goes on to show what a bellend he is, read this quote from HDID:

Okay lads things are looking good for HDID and I wish you all well, I seem to have upset some of the Diggers on the Parkside but that was part of the plan. TBH some of them can't take a bit of banter only a few mind and some of them have even sent me PM's saying they love the banter and to just ignore the few who are upset, so do me and HDID a turn and turn these boys over.
 
I will turn up, and hope the guys we are meeting up with are ok, and that this idiot is not representative of the rest of their forum. Sadly, having looked on hdid today, I don't think he is alone in this. Banter is banter, being rude and obnoxious is not banter, it's being stupid. Any one who says what he has said in the club house of the course I belong to would run out of friends very quickly.

See you all on Monday.
 
Well I'm looking forward to meeting the GM boys, as there are a few who live quite local to me(within 25 miles, if their golf clubs are anything to go by,Nuneaton and Coventry are witin 30 mins of Warwick, where I live.

Think it was me who said he was a good guy. He does the same on HDID with his chomper comments & we have had some exhanges over why Faldo is better than Monty etc. At the end of the day he is trying to get a reaction & enjoys getting comments back. I think banter can be dangerous on a forum because you can't see people's faces & gauge what context it was in.

We recently had a meeting in Wales & the organizer invited us all to his home for a barbecue. The hospitality shown to all of us that weekend was second to none. What type of blokes are on HDID? A wide range of professions, characters & personalities. I can honestly say hand on heart that I have not met anyone who I have not genuinely liked.

The blokes I know will be perfect gentlemen when we meet on Monday because that is what they are.

same here nick.looking forward too meeting some new faces and playing kenilworth at last.It will all have blown over by Monday
 
I rarely find that people that you converse with on a forum are as you expect them to be in real life. Look forward to meeting you & the GM team on Monday.
 
Bomber on the wind up? Who'd have thought it ;)

You have it there 'ol V....... he's a one-off.... gud guy really but doesn't like that tag... he's a Scot, so say no more. I'm 2 hrs plus & heading into deep south country, so please don't try and tell me you are putting yer'sel out. See yer there about high noon:)

Just do not see what the point of his posts are blue. Just when you see what happened with this nearly getting called off due to people bitching at each other on HDID, then someone comes on here trying to wind people up then going back to HDID to tell everyone how he is getting on with annoying us.. I have read it all this morning and can see why Robin got off, I think most people would and then have someone rip into him about his handicap was out of line.Buy hey what the I am looking forward to a good competitive game of golf with a few laughs on Monday. I am sure that a minority do not reflect the average person on HDID....

Adey, I think you have over reacted buddy. There is no malice in the comments and all he did was try and stoke up a bit of banter wth some ribbing of people, the guys over on HDID know what he's like and the Scottish contingent on here know what he's like, no malice just a wind up merchant.

No ever reaction mate. I just can't be doing with people who have the sole intention of winding people up. Bit of friendly banter is one thing, but trying to stir things up is another.

Well done Bomber, considering your such a nasty bloke according to some. Very nice of you to
donate some decent prizes. Lets hope they go to a good home and a deserved winner on the day..
Hopefully on the HDID side,,:)]
