Hope his concentration is not affected too much. Despite being a very wealthy young man it must still be a shock to the system......
Saint Garrett Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 http://www.101greatgoals.com/blog/burglars-broke-into-victor-wanyamas-house-stole-his-range-rover-during-aston-villa-v-southampton-nairobi-news/? Apparently stole his car and had his house turned upside down - not nice for anyone.
Lorne Malvo Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 I know a mate who is selling a Range Rover if anyone interested? On the cheeep.
Saint_Jonny Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Hope hes insured and the little bastards get caught!
Jonnyboy Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Didn't think you could get away with stealing cars these days, aren't they traceable?
Window Cleaner Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Didn't think you could get away with stealing cars these days, aren't they traceable? Nothing is traceable if it's hiding place is dark enough, anyway the tracers are easily enough disabled. Probably already on it's way to south america or the far east. Memphis Raines strikes again eh.
scotty Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Could have been worse. If he'd moved to liverpool with the others, this would be happening to him every away game.
VectisSaint Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 "Property worth millions is believed to have been taken" - millions of what? A Range Rover and 3 TVs are not going to be worth millions (of pounds). At least the other report in the other thread said it was thousands.

A Range Rover and 3 TVs are not going to be worth millions (of pounds). At least the other report in the other thread said it was thousands. Millions of Kenyan nagwes or whatever they use down that way, shillings perhaps ?, A shilling is in fact worth less than 1 pence apparently so 10000£ is worth at least a million ksh.
Coldridge Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 "Property worth millions is believed to have been taken" - millions of what? A Range Rover and 3 TVs are not going to be worth millions (of pounds). At least the other report in the other thread said it was thousands. Lazy journalism. They are citing the original article which states millions, but specifically millions of Kenyan shillings.
OldNick Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 he has a taste of life in Liverpool already
angelman Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Lazy journalism. They are citing the original article which states millions, but specifically millions of Kenyan shillings. WHICH IS ABOUT £56k (IE mostly the car)
Jonnyboy Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 I'd love to be a fly on the wall if he ever caught up with them...
Window Cleaner Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 WHICH IS ABOUT £56k (IE mostly the car) So if I give you 1 million kenyan shillings will you give me 56K GBP? I million ksh is in fact worth about 7500£
Lighthouse Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 If I was a footballer I'd be sure to share my house with a couple of bad tempered Alsatians. Hope this doesn't get to Victor's head too much. The money wont be an issue but the invasion of privacy and shock can unsettle even the hardest people.
angelman Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 So if I give you 1 million kenyan shillings will you give me 56K GBP? I million ksh is in fact worth about 7500£ What are you on about?
Lets B Avenue Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Probably done by Scousers, now that robbing the houses of relegation-threatened Stevie G and co aren't famous enough.
Window Cleaner Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 What are you on about? At a guess kenyan shillings and pounds sterling ??? You've said that 1 million ksh is worth 56K GBP, so I'd like to exchange the million ksh that I have in my wheelbarrow with you. 1 kenyan shilling is in fact worth about 3/4 of 1 p

I actually was replying to the post which quoted millions (plural) and having read the Kenyan article which claims it was 8 million, that comes to £56k. I really ****ing hate smart arses who are so pathetically pedantic like in this instance. Makes posting very tiresome.

OK, anyway his 8 million ksh Range Rover has been recovered in London apparently.
angelman Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 OK, anyway his 8 million ksh Range Rover has been recovered in London apparently. Can never really keep up with who the tools are on here. Are you generally acknowledged to be one of them?
Window Cleaner Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Can never really keep up with who the tools are on here. Are you generally acknowledged to be one of them? No idea really, just assumed you were speaking of 1 milion ksh,wrongly as it turns out, as you'd taken the time to actually read the Nairobi news, often worth pointing out any new fact that you introduce into a post really...you know for those of us who don't read the Nairobi News on a regular basis.

I find the crossword a struggle.
Window Cleaner Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 I find the crossword a struggle. Yep those little known tribal dialect words stump you every time.
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Can never really keep up with who the tools are on here. Are you generally acknowledged to be one of them? Nah Windows is alreet. He just thinks everything and everyone is crap.
Crazy Diamond Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Technically it's a burglary, not a robbery. (Waits for the inevitable dispute over terminology)
Window Cleaner Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Technically it's a burglary, not a robbery. (Waits for the inevitable dispute over terminology) So in fact the "Wanyama burgled" thread is more apt.
ByTheGolacs Posted 25 November, 2014 Author Posted 25 November, 2014 You should all count your self lucky really. It was only when I read it back before posting that I realised it originally said he'd been 'b#ggered. So I went with 'robbed' despite, literally, seconds of agonising as whether my grammer was technically correct enough for our illustrious posters :-)
KingdomCome Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 He's been burgled, robbed and buggered? ...what a day on a side note to the main thrust of the thread (semantics and squabbling), I hope the little sh*ts get caught.
Bearsy Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 THESE NEFARIOUS BROS STOLE 5 THINGS FROM VICTOR! CAN YOU SPOT ALL 5? Before: After: Winner gets BJ from the forum member of their choice (or cash equivalent) Terms & conditions apply
Bearsy Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 no sorry, leicester, missing CCTV is not evidence of theft of CCTV. You are not winner, this time
scorchio21 Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Kitchen roll, eye, champagne bottle, trouser logo.... and I'm out
Bearsy Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Nice try, el scorchio, but no blow job for you! Tks for playing!
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 THESE NEFARIOUS BROS STOLE 5 THINGS FROM VICTOR! CAN YOU SPOT ALL 5? Before: After: Winner gets BJ from the forum member of their choice (or cash equivalent) Terms & conditions apply 1. Trouser stain/logo 2. His left eye 3. Kitchen roll 4. Bottle of champagne 5. Stool height adjuster
Bearsy Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 oh, well done Sarb! Who is the forum member of ur choice? Edit: Also, bonus point if you can explain what the thieves wanted with a trouser logo, bottle of champagne, stool height adjuster, kitchen role and Victor's left eye
DT Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Scousers step up their 'stealing off Saints' strategy
buctootim Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Kitchen roll, eye, champagne bottle, trouser logo and the little handle on his bar stool. I nominate Tokes to get the BJ from you, no cash alternative (either way).
Bearsy Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 That's ok, ur nomination of Tokyos to provide ur BJ has been accepted. I didn't read the rest of that sentence - I'm v.busy - but I assume it is arranging time and place. Hope you enjoy! We do not require video
VectisSaint Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 If I was a footballer I'd be sure to share my house with a couple of bad tempered Alsatians He already shares midfield with Morgan, I expect sharing his home with him as well is a step too far.
Ohio Saint Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 His possessions are already at Liverpool. I hope his head stays in Southampton.
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 oh, well done Sarb! Who is the forum member of ur choice? Edit: Also, bonus point if you can explain what the thieves wanted with a trouser logo, bottle of champagne, stool height adjuster, kitchen role and Victor's left eye I was hoping I could have the cash equivalent. If not, can CB Fry and Smirking Saints do half each please. I know they'd gobble it up.
scotty Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 I've had this idea for ages, and this seems the appropriate thread; when the dippers come to St Marys, a song for lallana to the tune of his old one..... They're robbing your house, they're robbing your hooouuuse Adam Lallana, they're robbing your house
KelvinsRightGlove Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 I was hoping I could have the cash equivalent. If not, can CB Fry and Smirking Saints do half each please. I know they'd gobble it up. Gross
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Gross I actually cringed writing that.
devonsaint Posted 25 November, 2014 Posted 25 November, 2014 Technically it's a burglary, not a robbery. (Waits for the inevitable dispute over terminology) As I haven't seen anyone else challenge your terminology, I will! How do you know? If it took place Sunday night it was a burglary, if it happened during the day on Sunday or Monday it was a robbery. (Common Law definition: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burglary )
