Maybe buy it from a store, read it and then try and return it and ask for a credit note. (Use the excuse that you thought you were buying a book).

I genuinely like these inside looks at things...

But i don't think i could live with myself if i supported this crap in anyway... And that includes making it seem remotely important by taking the time to read it

She was a very competent high jumper. I believe she is in a relationship and trying to rebuild her life out of the spotlight and didnt want the book dragging up the past.
I am told she has learned hard lessons and is trying to move on, a shame the same can't be said for Mr Nixon. Maybe she could be cut some slack.
She has a younger sister who is into athletics and XC running who went through a very hard time during her sisters infamy.
How dare you Joffa! Fancy showing compassion, empathy, forgiveness and understanding! We don't want redemption for her. Stone her I say. Start all of that new age, cuddly crap and soon there'll be world peace. In Saudi Arabia she would've been stoned, dismembered and her family ostracised (I use the word in its literal sense. I digress, but it's a term that originated in Ancient Greece, where every year the people got to vote the worst politician out of government, after which he had to leave the society for ten years! The process was called ostracisation and he had to take his family with him!). Wake up to yourself son.

Come on plugs, don't you know you are fully formed, both psychologically and physically by the age of 17? Didn't you know that 17 year olds should be using their superior judgement, life experience and skills to guide 45 year olds? Get with the program, old boy.

Teenagers should have to wear L plates on their clothes until they reach 21 at least. I've learned over the years that many young d*ckheads turn into old d*ckheads. The prosecution presents Ricky Nixon as supporting evidence. The prosecution rests, M'Lud.

Seriously, I once drew up a plan for a business called, "Dickheads 'R Us". It was brilliant. For a fee, I would deliver a d**khead to your door, to cheer you up if you were feeling low. I was going to be rich, I tells 'ya! The bank manager was unimpressed. Turns out that the first rule of business success is to create a monopoly. How on earth could I do that, when there are so many dickheads running around in the wild? Back to the drawing board, I'm afraid.

I believe she is highly intelligent and her IQ is supposedly off the charts.
However like many highly intelligent people she is socially inept.

Though not qualified to make an informed assessment she certainly appears a classic sociopath and one to be avoided.

Nixon on the other hand is the sum of the earth IMO.


Proudly assuming the title of forum Oracle and serving as the inaugural Saintsational ‘weak as piss brigade’ President.

I have less sympathy for her than most, but you have to remember that the media played a major part in all of this as well.

There wasn't much of a story here, but in the interest of selling newspapers, ratings etc the media beat up a storm.

She was an immature kid but actual journalistic integrity could have stopped all of this dead in its tracks. That is something that failed everyone... KD, the club, the public. In an industry run by "professionals", that's on them. They flamed the fires. Kids have certainly killed themselves over a lot less than that, and the way they built that monster... That was direction this was heading.

I'm glad she has turned her life arpund

It is a constant source of embarrassment that he ever wore our guernsey. Some people should be able to be expunged from the record books.

She has done nothing near as bad as him and she has the excuse of being a young kid at the time.

In his defence he must have serious mental problems. If he hasn't he needs to be diagnosed immediately. I know who has acted the older in this latest issue and its the girl. We haven't heard anything from her at all.

A kid with an IQ of 150. Just for context the threshold IQ for a genius is 140. An average IQ is 100-110. Albert Einstein's IQ was 170.

She was no normal 16/17 yo kid. Not at all. She would have run rings around a boofhead such as Nixon and indeed Mark Robinson.

A mistake is one thing, a brain fade or a stupid action that's not thought out. She on the other hand sustained her behaviour relentlessly for a lengthy period of time, purely for revenge against 1 man. In doing so she dragged a whole lot of other people into her game.

This was not a typical incidence of youthful stupidity or buffoonery, it was a case of a narcissistic psychopath reaping havoc, in the most calculated manner, because she was pissed off by rejection. Her motive was the same as any abusive person, just more sophisticated and she will keep doing it.

Example: Nixon wins the case about his book and then she claims he kicked her in the Courtroom. Anyone that believes that allegation (regardless of Nixon being the consummate f'wit) is a naive sucker.

To those defending her as an errant teenager, if you have sons would you be content with them getting into a relationship with her?

So the only person who saw the kick was her and she was the one who complained? Is that fact? The way I see it is she has done nothing wrong for 4 years. I, unlike some, are prepared to forgive her and if I had a son I don't see an issue if he went out with her because I haven't seen her do anything wrong for years. There are plenty of my daughters friends who seem a little out there now.

I just wished I lived the perfect lives of some on here. Actually I don't. Couldn't stand it.
