Pie and Bovril - Most frightening posters in history


Recommended Posts

Stand free had beefs with people that could have been accepted except he tried too hard and came across as a shite WUM. Perthshirebell as wings over Perthshire ruffled a few feathers which I found amusing. Also, I have no idea who it was, but the guy that was Cleveland brown and kept calling people civilian made me chuckle.

That's behind a paywall I think can't access it. 

A political activist who sparked a major terrorism investigation after posting tweets threatening to kill the Queen has admitted he is “massively relieved” to avoid a jail sentence.

Alastair Peter Dow took to Twitter during the Commonwealth Games in 2014 to say he was a “man at war for my freedom” and suggesting his “army” would shoot the monarch.

Yesterday, the 56-year-old was fined as punishment for a “serious” breach of the peace. Dow had denied the allegations made against him and claimed his messages had been “blown out of proportion”.

Police in Aberdeen raided Dow’s Hollybank Place address on July 26, 2014, responding to reports he had threatened to harm the Queen in a social media post.

During proceedings, Aberdeen Sheriff Court heard detectives set up a specialist unit to combat terrorism during the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow.

One of Dow’s public messages said he wanted to see the “Queen’s brains blown out and her body splattered over the ground”.

Another said: “As a man at war for my freedom against the imposed monarch, I want my army to put a bullet in the Queen’s head.”

Representing himself in court yesterday, Dow said he was always happy to “delete or moderate tweets”.

“In my opinion there was no reason to escalate my tweets to a court case. I would co-operate with anything to avoid a jail sentence.”

Sentencing Dow, Sheriff Morag McLaughlin said: “I’m not going to impose jail. I think it would be disproportionate. Since this happened in 2014, there’s been nothing else.

“We will always disagree about the seriousness, but I consider it to be a serious breach of the peace.”

Dow said it was a “massive relief” that he will not be forced to spend time behind bars.


He was fined £500 to be paid at the rate of £20 per month.

What happened to the Phoenix ? Not seen that tam McB in a while, pun club president. 

The Phoenix is now the chairman at Stirling Albion and probably doesn't have the time to deal with the day-to-day fiddle-faddle of Pie and Bovril any more. He was a very decent man offline but, like so many others who participate in puns and an overuse of the ;) emoji, a bit tiresome on these boards.

I've been thinking about Kilt quite a lot over the last few days and I can't shake the image of him playing as a goalkeeper at the Fives tournament in 2007 with shattered spectacles.

No, Peter Dow was a seperate poster. No Wee Willie

Wee Willie isn't allowed to have a passport, and really fucking hates the royals and can't stop bleating on about them. Coincidence you say?
