To be honest what the press and myself have said I believe if ever comes to light will show that it was a Triad related killing.adrian in Taiwannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4958249806167287259.post-40916146543984038212009-03-30T12:34:00.000+01:002009-03-30T12:34:00.000+01:00Adrian,Do you mean the cockle pickers in Morcambe?...Adrian,<BR/>Do you mean the cockle pickers in Morcambe? They were illegal immigrants. You make an interesting point about the Triads and their particular brand of justice.......even the local newsagent is convinced its "a Triad revenge for non payment of debts" so I think your right in saying there's not much chance of the culprit being caught. Time will tell. <BR/>MOTAndrew Butterwickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04901721084209057107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4958249806167287259.post-57622587597419832142009-03-30T09:04:00.000+01:002009-03-30T09:04:00.000+01:00Unfortunatley is not an uncommon event, a few year...Unfortunatley is not an uncommon event, a few years back in East Anglia alot of chinese where drowned in illegal welking. The promise of high wages and western life styles draws alot of Chinese to pay large sums of money in China to be smuggled into the UK and are forced into slave labour to pay back their handlers fees. Also in China town a few years back you had the Triad killing due to gambling debts. One thing I have learnt in Taiwan there are two ruling parties the goverment and the triads you have a choice on which one you can use to complain it is as simple as that. The outcome from both is very different but once actioned by either it is then finished with. I have a feeling from what you wrote it sounds like a dispute that was ended by internal people and the truth will never come out as the chinese community rarely talk about such events, very similar to the mafia in Italy.adriannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4958249806167287259.post-90811901827215151762009-03-29T09:51:00.000+01:002009-03-29T09:51:00.000+01:00Adrian,Good to see you flying the flag in far off ...Adrian,<BR/>Good to see you flying the flag in far off climes..... You're right about fortress Elland Road. The pleasing thing is the confidence with which the team are now playing.<BR/>Thanks for the comments.<BR/>Peter,<BR/>Yesterday was one of the most assurred performances I've seen for a long time. Mr B just needs to calm down a bit......don't want to lose him for the play off final!<BR/>Sodje tried to play on for 5 minutes but he kept feeling his hamstring so lets hope it's not too serious. He was awesome yesterday. Everyone played well especially Parker and Dougie as they had two tricky wingers to deal with.<BR/>As for CSI Selby there's no news. The boys in blue have put out an appeal in the far eastern countries for help (Do you know anything Adrian?)Actually I have been interviewed as a witness as I saw a suspicious van at the place the body was found in the dead of night the week before. Will keep you all informed.<BR/>Thanks for reading the blog.<BR/>MOTAndrew Butterwickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04901721084209057107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4958249806167287259.post-53563551121187174432009-03-29T09:32:00.000+01:002009-03-29T09:32:00.000+01:00Good couple of loan signings on friday ahead of th...Good couple of loan signings on friday ahead of the play offs.

But a great result and things sure are looking up.<BR/><BR/>Although the result is always important, I always look to see how we played and I'm encouraged that we looked so good.<BR/><BR/>By the way, Larry, in his post match interview on the BBC website, said that they took Sodjee off as a precaution so maybe the old hamstring is not too bad. <BR/><BR/>So did everyone play well? Larry was impressed with the whole team performance but he would say that.<BR/><BR/>Oh and how is the murder mystery going, you been interviewed yet???Peternoreply@blogger.com
