Good on him . Hope he does the force pride. I know some police in the past have abused their authority and it happens nowadays but there are good ones . Reading some story's about the bravery certain police and army go through have to say respect to such individuals. A woman pc I was reading about last year got seriously cut up with a knife in trying to apprehend someone dangerous who had committed a serious felony and we're responding from a call from the public. Despite her injuries she hung on to the attacker until back up arrived . Think that bravery would not be shown by some males .

Think the numbers in the police are due to cuts by the government. I know soldiers in Afghanistan had similar problems. Weapons outdated or not working properly and in need of more armoured machines which would of saved more lives out there. At times lads were going on patrol and Taliban had planted IEDs with lives being lost sadly as vehicles they were in didn't have the necessary protection .

The British Ministry of Defence has confirmed it will cut troop numbers from 82,000 to 73,000 by 2025. I didn't serve in Afghan but it is well known that the Taliban used 'daisy chain' IED's which when one was stepped/driven on, all of them would go off at the same time, there were usually 3-4 IED's in a daisy chain. As for vehicle protection, the Talibans answer to upgraded armoured vehicles was simple, they made bigger IED's, some which literally lifted those vehicles 10-15 feet in the air.

Thanks for the information Bear. What still gets me is when you read accounts though of what lads have had to go through out there especially soldiers and families dealing with the aftermath . Young men on patrol and then the next there not here no more after being blown up by an IED. Other soldiers who have known these lads then have to pick the mashed up body parts intermingled with sand and grit and put them in body bags which cuts them up some more than others . Compared to some of the jobs some do here eg office work and the like this is another level in terms of physical and emotional distress .

I know it has been mentioned before that Pete Bore is now a policeman, but I have just been sent a list of our local police team; and I look forward to hopefully meeting up with him. https://members.ourwatchmember.org.uk/AlertMessage/Attachment/6E8F50CBE2A09583E717CD300E4EA3EA
Are you going to advise us which crime you intend to commit? Aggressive posting on The Fishy, nobbling an away player outside BP, Chanting 'We are the Champions', food poisoning the away team staying at the Humber Royal and others( or whatever it called these days) say no more.

Yes, I can imagine the horror of going around picking up bits of your best mate, luckily I didn't have to do that in my Army career.

Of course there are some bad apples in the force as in all walks of life but generally I reckon they are to be admired . I certainly couldn’t do the job ( too bloody old now anyway ) but as a younger man I simply wouldn’t have had the patience to put up with some of the Sh1t that they face , I’d of ended up in court myself for beating the crap out of some scroat .

Someone once told me the best thing you can do in life is try to help others and not constantly put them down . A fair bit of sarcasm can go on here which I don't like to see. Were all dealing with s*** in life albeit some far more others and we all fall and make mistakes along the way . Key is try to keep getting back up. Watching soldier on the BBC I player for one thought some of the instructors were really good. Tried to get the best out of young recruits in often very trying circumstances.Was delighted for some of the recruits that passed out especially the two young women . Of the 45 who applied only 27 made it through. Good on them 👊.

Humbercod called me a pc bore when I scolded him for whistling at a lady outside Wetherspoons.
We both laughed so hard, minced up sausage roll snorted out of our nostrils.
He still owes me for the dry cleaning bill.

I remember his debut for town and being excited by his raw talent, he really was outstanding for his age, Im not surprised he lost his way in football with the players and managers at the club at the time.

I may be wrong, but didn't he come on as a sub for his first team debut, and scored 2 goals at the Pontoon end?

Can someone explain how this gets multiple red crosses? I served from 1981 - 2004 - In this the month of remembrance things like this make me angry, annoyed and sad in equal measures. I can only hope that pushing the Red Cross button happened in error.

Exactly. Futcher was signed by Grimsby Town from Halifax Town reserves, aged 34, by Alan Buckley for £10,000 as a short-term replacement for Andy Tillson. He went on to be a fans' favourite for five seasons, winning the Supporters Player of the Year twice in that time
