Meenzer 14055 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Basically feels he's achieved what he came into the sport to achieve and wants to be there for his young family. Fair enough I suppose. He'll probably do a Schumacher in a few years anyway (a comeback, not a skiing accident). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 4964 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Presumably that opens the path for Hamilton to become the greatest of all time, or whatever he's going for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26394 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I don't particularly follow F1 any more now that it's an unreliability- and personality-free zone, but Nico Rosberg has just retired from the sport with immediate effect having won his world title. That's quite impressive. Hamilton will be thanking all the gods that he has been praying to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30432 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Watch him start being gracious about Rosberg now he's no longer a threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough I suppose. He'll probably do a Schumacher in a few years anyway (a comeback, not a skiing accident). I don't want to sound skeptical but could it also be a "I won by the skin of my teeth and I can't rely on Hamilton having as many issues in the future so I'm just giving up so I don't get beat off the poor person anymore" Edited December 2, 2016 by Kevin Carr's Gloves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 19826 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Oooh, that's audacious. Rubbing Hamilton's nose in it too knowing he won't get the chance to regain the title from the man who beat him to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 38779 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 Just got home from a week grafting in The Highlands.

ewerk 26394 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 What is also astounding is that Daily Mail readers donated £800,000 towards his legal costs. Most of them wouldn't give the steam off their piss to charity but are happy to throw money at a soldier because he murdered a rag head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am just astounded anyone reads that shit.My Dad reads it every day, he's an ex-soldier, working class labour bloke, 71. He's definitely changed his outlook over the 20 years or so he's been reading that since he switched from the daily mirror. He's still not in outright DM reader mode but naturally voted leave after being drip fed all that shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some folk went abroad to fight against fascism despite being from a neutral country, some ran British fascists out of their towns in your grans day. Like my Dad, I think you probably get a bit more right wing as get older, it's almost like a fear thing. (Not that my dad's RW, he just has moved more in that direction from the way he was when I was younger.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 14601 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Guy needs to stay in prison, he murdered a prisoner of war. Would a suspended sentence not have been more appropriate though? Hanging squaddies completely out to dry isn't good for morale in general. If you'd served in the forces yourself you'd understand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonasjuice 0 Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Posted a bit about being depressed every now and again a couple of weeks ago and probably undersold how bad it was. Used it as a bit of a first step in a way to see how it would be to actually admit it to myself, and see how the reaction would be in a place where (no disrespect ) it really didn't matter. The responses were great and helped me build up the courage to admit I might have a problem to my family and friends. Going to a regular drop in session now and feeling a lot better already for it all not being in my head. So thanks for all those that responded and I encourage anyone else who's struggling through anything to just tell someone, anyone about it. Even strangers online to start off with. Anyway, continue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, a guilty verdict and suspended sentence is what should've happened for putting an enemy combatant out of his misery. Acknowledgement of the crime but sentence more in keeping with the context of the situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
