As we know that the club read this forum can I ask them why is it taking so long to release images of two shirts and then get them set up on the website on a pre release don't dampen the fans current enthusiasum.

I know the feeling. I am normally in good shape but have a few extra pounds around my middle ATM. I normally get my tops close fitting. Would need to get one a size or two bigger if hoops otherwise I will look pregnant

Where have I ever said that. Isn't it amazing what some can read what wasn't written.
A few days ago I said that I retired through injury. I also said that my weight would allow me to fight as a super heavyweight. There is no such weight in pro boxing. So sorry you don't know what you are talking about

For crying out loud, it's June 10th. 2 months till the start of the season. Have you got nothing better to do than moan about how quickly the kits coming out - which, by the way, is the manufacturers job. Chelsea haven't brought their kit out yet either, sooo disorganised.

Reckon he just meant it seems like you've had a few knocks round the head from what you write!

Lets to not bother selling any then, things like the new shirts will keep people interested during the break and as people have said they like to take them on holiday during the summer.

Are you sure? I am over 6' so carry the weight well. Only 17 1/2 st. Slow? Slower than I used to be but jaw still solid
This was all i read, made me chuckle! AJ and Fraudley were decent Super-heavyweights in their Amateur days, you ever mix it with those guys? Did they test the granite?

My memory can be shocking at times. Not good when I get the wifes name wrong. So she is 'love' or 'babe' all the time now. The kids are used to me getting theirs wrong. It only upsets them these days when I call the boys by a girls name and the girls by a boys name. I just blame it on having too many kids

So you now know about super heavyweights :facepalm:
I was a struggling middleweight. Always struggled to keep the weight on. Isn't it amazing how it changes as you get older. I started at Triumph ABC. Errol Christie was the one I always looked up to. So sad what has happened. Top bloke.

Yh top bloke....Triumph always been at the heart of Coventry Boxing, with the rise of MMA other gyms have started getting busier now though!
You thought about getting fit and competing in a White Collar event, raise a bit of charity cash? I'm 6 ft and 11 stone so always been a big welter/super welter, the best division in boxing

My "you're not as slim as you used to be moment" was when I was digging out the summer trousers for work earlier in the year and several pairs now cut off the circulation below the waist. Had to dig out the exercise bike as well.

The two big weights in boxing are middleweight and heavyweight. I had your problem when I was younger. My normal weight was just over 11st. I either had to lose weight to your level or give weight away. But as you know you will have the reach advantage normally. If only Greggs was about in my days. I love the sausage rolls
I am out of training for a bit. That is why I have become a lardy. I eat and drink the same to when I trained all the time. Had a motorbike accident and broke my arm where it goes into the shoulder. In good shape everywhere but the gut that has grown. But it is surrounded by solid muscle. It surprises a few that poke my stomach when taking the piss to see that it doesn't feel like fat. Will be going back to boxing soon though. My youngest is 5 and will be ready in a couple of years. His mother will just about allow boxing and nothing else. My excuse is he needs to learn respect

Where have I said anything like that? You're working yourself up into a stupor over something neither of us can control and automatically blaming the club when I'd suggest a lot of it's beyond their control. Just find a hobby during the summer or something to occupy yourself.

In the last 6 months I have had to go into work to get more trousers that are bigger. I was a 32.....then a 34......now a 36.......and they are now getting a bit tight. And the overhang

Yh i stay at this weight to use my height and reach advantage ,always been gangly orthodox and loved to fight on the outside (rocket jab) but i happily switch hit to get inside and pound my right hook in!
It will work! Boxing is different to any other sport i found, total mental and physical dedication needed to survive. Unlike other sports you don't 'play' boxing!
Nowadays gyms are full of these big steroid abusers, i would happily do 36 minutes with any of them!

I would hardly say worked into a stupor more of a light hearted comment but read it as you wish.
