PS having read one of the main theories on the derivation of the word ‘scrob’ I’d be uncomfortable using it for anyone but my mate 😃

Put it this way, the profanity checker on this site needs updating.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Quoted from rancido


I first heard the expression used in the early 60's, possibly 1963 when I went on my first "pleasure trip" and the quota system hadn't been introduced then. I don't think it was used in a derogatory way, much as we generalise saying somebody is a Geordie, Cockney or Yorkie.


It must have been some of the old boys who spoke that way back then, they spoke in a derogatory way and I just took it, it was that way.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.
