Its a generational term and one from a pre PC age when we tended to be more laid back and less offended by everything in general. A time that benefitted from no social media or mobile phones and if you had a phone that didn't have a party line you were considered quite posh lol. As for Lawson many of us had hairstyles like his back in the day and it was the norm Time to move on. Guess it depends if Lawson himself finds it offensive. If he doesn't then yes time to move on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure he's been called far worse and coped with it. There were a lot of unfair rumours about him last winter on some social media that eventually went away that he seemed to handle with great dignity to his credit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neila 1,160 Posted March 25, 2022 Just popped in to view some comments, regarding Mr Lawson's long hair, think in the past used to be a rule saying hair had to be kept inside the Helmut, looks like this rule is long gone as the said person would have needed a helmet 3 sizes bigger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisa-colette 6,032 Posted March 25, 2022 That stream was good. The Amazon Prime live tennis from the US freezes a lot more than that one. So good job, whoever is doing it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
