Another classic Bob Gibson sound bite in there..."The bigger they are, the harder they fall", bollocks Bob, how many little guys have taken a kicking with that little gem ringing in their ears?, the truth is the only way to defeat a larger enemy is with surprise and superior weapons technology, as in what the f**k has David got in his hand?...s**t that hurt...just saying Bob.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

He may have been referring to the space between his ears.

They'll soon shift that on the 6/7 hour deliverys, having said that they probably haven't been on a delivery since 1995.

That's my thinking as well and I should imagine the buffet wasn't that far away.

Pullinger- 'ground breaking legally binding agreement' which has lead us to this hall today where we intend you to shite yourself over the horrors Royal Mail will bestow upon your weary legs and minds and ask you once again to pledge allegiance to the cause so your Knights of the chaterring round table can enter the 'negotiating chamber' and return with all of ours and some of your jobs still intact...Arise! CWU Army arise!! :left:

Bob Gibson talks a good fight (the harder they fall) but I'm not sure I would back him in a scrap, even against Moya Greene. She would scratch her finger nails down the side of his face and knee him in the balls and he'd be on the floor before you could blink. And anyway Bob we kind of work for RM so I'm not so sure we want them to fall, I've got a mortgage to pay thanks very much.

So OK we have a room full of overweight to clinically obese backers here but if we want to really give RM a royal kicking we need strategy, not just brute force and Bob Gibson's bare knuckles.

As SAS hero Andy McNab always says, the best way to win against a superior enemy is SPEED, SURPRISE and AGGRESSION.

So lads all we need to do is box around a few outbuildings in the dark, preferably in a desert environment, and take these buggers out with a MILAN anti-tank weapon or possibly just some good old PE. Standing on gates is so passe, this is 2015 ffs.
