Aussie Yob Culture
 
You good people have never heard the word Boggan its means a Aussie Yob , not unlike Mr Leyton Hewett just out of interest who would you prefer your kids to model their attitude on Hewitt or Tim Henman .

Would you like your off spring to be a spoilt foul mouthed brat or a guy who plays the game like an adult ? could even be an Aussie cricketer the true gentlemen in the bat and ball game , never a dull moment tossers to a man.

Games bring out a persons true nature , there are those who play the game and those who are bad losers and worse winners.

Glenn McGrath has apologised for his outburst at Ramnaresh Sarwan during the fourth Test, regrets the storm of controversy it has stirred in Australia, and though he knows he has said the words before, says the experience will hopefully lead him to control himself in future.

But McGrath defended his team against allegations that it behaves at its worst when losing, and against a notion that it is the only transgressor in world cricket on the score of on-field conduct.

Totally agree gsidhu. Luckily, we don't live in Birmingham, haven't done for 20 years. Hate going to see relatives there.
An Aunt and Uncle of mine who do live there, and are also looking to migrate to Oz, had to go to Handsworth for their medicals on Tuesday this week, and told me it was like entering 'Hell'.

Yobs are yobs and having seen the Aussie kind you need your eyes opened .


THERE has been a sharp rise in school emergency situations - including violence - reported to the Education Department.

In the first term of the current year, 241 emergencies were reported - nearly half the total for the previous full school year.
For the entire school year in 2002 there were 506 critical incident reports. In 2001 there were 392.

Responding to two particularly violent incidents in WA primary schools recently, State School Teachers' Union president Pat Byrne said similar reports were more common now than 10 years ago.

The medical centre is in Handsworth Wood, not Handsworth. This is an expensive upmarket classy leafy area. Birmingham has many nice areas (Edgbaston, Harborne, Solihull for example), it's not all Handsworth.

Good for him still a prat with an attitude that stinks , your child will only learn great things from such a spoilt tosser , if not try the Aussie cricketers , as Parky said they may win games but they will never be great until they learn how to win and lose with grace.
