How low must you be to beg people for a few pence around around a train station, hate fake beggers who are doing it as a con ! I genuinly feel sorry for those who are homeless through no fault of their own or just need a little help but for thos who do it as a con disgusting, any body else see this ? Was around the 2.15 mark outside central ?


Happened to me aswell, I pulled out a tenner, put it back in my wallet and said nah I'm skint mate.

After the Blackburn game last year was the best. Me and my mate were in the station and some guy asked for 50p so he could get his train to Merthyr. We had ages to wait so we stayed in there, he went and asked 2 different people, then came back to us and used exactly the same script. The look on our faces were perfect :lol:

Bluebird since 1948 wrote:If any of you are familar with Albany road then you will have heard of this bloke. He has a rucksack and a black beard. Ask me every day for money so he can get himself into a hostel for the night, I gave him money first few times but he's taking the piss now as its been going on for month. In my eyes he's nothing more than a pest.

The final straw was when I was giving him 20 pence, he saw that I had a twenty quid in my wallet and asked if he could have one of them instead of the 20p, I closed my wallet and walked away and he had the cheek to beg for the 20 pence then. No time for those who refuse to help themselves.

:old: :old:


i Know that fella he was aggressive to one of my daughters in town asking for money, luckily I was nearby in a shop. I came out and grabbed him about to smash him, and a copper comes up and says this fella has an asbo for the whole of the city centre. so as he is carted off he is shouting he wants me done for assault, to be fair the copper just laughed. f*cking cheek

It's up to you what you do with your money. I hope it made you feel good sharing it. But it reminds me of the saying "There's one born every minute"!
