Never did me any harm and smartened me up when I was caned or slippered (one each incident) in school. Put it this way I didn’t do it again and it made me realise my actions were out of order. Bring it back I say and National Service while we’re at it. That’ll stop them in their tracks and make proper men of them.
If you want to know where this thread was taken away from football/its original topic it was this post right here when Brin wanted to make a political point about corporal punishment.
