Sincere Apology to John Weafer.

NickyOD

Last Night at the filming of the Late Night Stars of Poker I put my foot in my mouth in a big way and offended John Weafer in one of the worst ways possible.

John and his friends were understandably more than a little upset as I would have been in the same situation so I want to publicly apologise to John and his friends for an extremely tactless and stupid comment on my part.

John has always been nothing but a gent whenever I've been at the table with him so I was completely out of order.

Sometimes things come across in completely the wrong way that you intended them to and there's no way of taking it back particularly with alcohol involved (not that it's any excuse!) so I want it to clarify here publicly that accusations that were made last night were my fault but absolutely not my intention.

Nicky.

Not sure Nicky has his number.


I guess Nicky felt it important to make a public apology and choose boards to make it.

Called him a dole sponger IMO

No Malice intended. Fair play to Nicky coming out unprompted and making a public apology for whatever it was he said.

why do you feel the need to post your apology on a public forum ?

i'm sure he could get in contact with him easily enough. i'm just curious about the motivation for apologising on boards when no one here witnessed, was offended by or was even aware of what happened. just seems a bit strange.

i would like to take this opportunity to apologies to my brother.
he has been nothing but brotherly to me over my life time and a few years ago ,whilst being a little drunk ,i said some things to him that i prob shouldn't have.(don’t remember what exactly but that's not the point).
i dont think he even reads boards but just incase,im really sorry bro...

thenutpeddler

I cheated on my bird.

Sorry

When I moved out of the family home aged 18 and you cleaned out my old room top to bottom, it wasn't vomit (as i had suggested) that had hardened and stuck to the skirting board beside my bed.

Sorry Mum

I think this thread has served it's purpose and then some. (some nice pics though)

Yeah your right.
Now. I feel like I need to go buy some Solar Gard.

The only thing we need to know now (apart from the thing that needed apologising for) is whether the apology is set in stone yet?

Flushdraw

Yeah i reckon the thread should be locked up too.

What Nicky said about Johnny was bang out of order and i dont understand why a thread was started that would leave you open to ridicule.

I wouldn't expect SpoofingJam to reply in this thread, because if i was in his shoes, i wouldn't accept the apology, or buy that it was alcohol fuelled. Everyone i know, has nothing but respect for Johnny as a person and a poker player so the bs that was spouted was as low as its comes.

Jaysus tony spit it out, what did he say

Goodluck2me

I heard it was along the lines of John W told tony that he should grow the moustache, and that it doesn't look anything like the guys fom Harry Enfield. Nicky pointed out the comparison to Mr Weafer and well...tempers flared.

jbravado

Yeah its hard to take what is obviously a very heart felt apology genuinly when we dont know what was even said.
Insert fevered attempts to stop stiffled laughter while munching on popcorn.

BigCityBanker

is it available for download on itunes or has it been edited out?

dont know what has been said etc but as Tony says - Johnny is a top bloke.

Tony,

I agree with you on some respects. This thread has gone on too long. What was said was in public and the apology made on a public forum.

I guess it is up to John and Nicky to sort out there sh1t if there is any.
I am guessing that the matter was sorted out on the night and that it is over with.
