BIGOT DECIDES ENOUGH IS ENOUGH..........
One of the oldest members of the Slaughter House BC had earned himself a reputation for never saying a thing. Indeed, many viewed him as a quiet mild mannered introvert, a man of very few words, but on the rare occasions he did speak the setting was always the club's end of year AGM.
The first time was in 2004 when the secretary asked the membership what the club needed to spend its surplus cash on. In a flash he stood up and said : " The sodding toilets....they're a bloody disgrace.......they don't flush properly and they stink to high heaven ! ".

The secretary duly noted the content of his grievance , and politely asked him to sit down.
Then in 2007 when the secretary again asked the room what the club's number one priority ought to be, the same gentleman stood up and shouted out : " Getting rid off the riff raff, slow players, cheating toe-rags, and in-your-face bad tempered loud mouthed bullies ".
The secretary duly noted the content of his grievance, and politely asked him to sit down.
And so another two years went by without him saying another word to anybody. Yet true to form there he was at the club's 2010 AGM, but this time Bigot was running the show. So guesing what might happen he cleverly chose not to address the audience first, but to ask the old man directly : " You sir .....sitting there as though your pants were on fire....what major grievance do you want to tell us about this time ? "

The gentleman rose from his seat : " Well, for a start....I don't like being picked upon in such an aggressive way......secondly, I don't have any time for committes that completely ignore my suggestions.....and finally, I am resigning my membership from this hell hole of a club, here and now ! "

Bigot stared hard and long at this rather large thorn in his side. And then came his measured reply.
" We gladly accept your resignation.....the committee has had more than enough of your droning voice...... because let's face it....all you have ever done since you joined this club is complain, complain, complain...."
