    I'd say that's more like a Fleck than a knacker.
    There'd need to be a lot more drugs and crim charges to be a knacker.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 221 ✭✭R_Tribesman


    no lol , there needs to be more horses and starved greyhounds to be a knacker


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,680 ✭✭✭Tellox
