bluemonday Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 The funeral of motorcyclist, who was killed in an accident during the Senior TT race in the Isle of Man, is to take place later. The funeral of a motorcyclist It is believed Mr Crellin was the only rider involved in the accident. What a ridiculous and substandard piece of reporting given the occasion.

KMC Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 He's having a funeral, is he? Fancy that... If you can't show a little respect, then why post on the matter !! I'm sure his brother is a member on here, and being a Manxman, I'm sure many family and friends will have access to these pages !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Grant & E2E - Well report it then, rather than turn this it a who can get on the highest of high horses contest. You're worse than Vulgarian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If ever there was a case to remove a post, then Vulgarians post ought to be deleted. An utterly disgusting post. Best wishes to JCs family and friends.

"Funeral for TT race crash rider" suggests the possibility that they might not give him a funeral and just dump him somewhere. As usual some over-sensitive twat who probably never knew the man has managed to take offence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebees Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 Go away you pest, you have no place here. Vulgarian made a valid point, the family and friends of the gentleman involved will already know & I would hope people reading a news report of a funeral wouldn't, 'just go because he is a local personality'. If the report is about the local chap killed in the Senior, the forum have paid their respect to him, everyone had kind words to say. Do not come here picking fights, with your false morals.

You don't have to be Manx to access Manx Forums - that would be prohibitive and possibly a little racist. You just need a device such as a computer and a connection to the internet which you can get via an ISP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fubar Posted June 25, 2009 Share Posted June 25, 2009 I thought that it was a fitting tribute to a wonderful person. David Cretney's eulogy summed John up to a tee. Never seen St Marys so full. Condolences to John's family. RIP John and ride on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that End2EndRider was implying that a person would have to be Manx to use the forums, he was merely pointing out that a lot of Manx people visit the forum and read the threads.
