Tim has sold the event that you'll be playing in a prison. He has miss sold lots of events the same. It doesn't state where in the prison, maybe outside on the tarmac like tango down and also in areas that are not slippery. He'll use the cells as hosting areas, they'll say sorry not playing in here because this is where you are sleeping. Might as well play anywhere as players want to shoot there way through a prison not a kitchen or car park.

Using very very cheap Cactus means he can over charge a lot stating it's special paint. White shell and white paint isn't anything new or special.

Good luck to all. Do not allow his events to put you off paintball. If any of his games at his events do not work that means he is very bad at game design.

Hmmmm, something weird is going on, I'm not absolutely sure what's happening or who's responsible but trust me, I will find out and I'll let you guys know because this odyssey has more twists in it than a helter-skelter .... someone is playing games and my knee-jerk suspicions are obvious but maybe I've got it wrong, we shall soon see ...

I better explain something here, that UWL post mentioned my brother in respect to playing the UWL.
My brother, like myself, are friends with a lot of the original Turks guys and a Turks team has been playing in the UWL.
I would never ask or expect my brother not to play in the UWL just because I've got the hump with barnett.
For anyone to imply that my brother would ever take sides against me is preposterous, it would never ever happen in my family.
Well, it might happen in barnett's family as it did with his family's restaurant business that went bust but it wouldn't in my family, never !!!

Nothing could ever come between myself and my brother and for some khunt to even suggest that is just another example of the depths barnett will descend in an attempt to slur my name.
I know barnett has already exampled the utilisation of his family to slur Pete Russell but to be involved in using my family is really taking the pis$.
My brother would defend me to the hilt, right or wrong [as I would him] because that's what brothers do but maybe not in barnett's family ....

Is the UWL going elsewhere a 100% definite? If so, when is Tom Cole likely to announce the new organiser? It's a series I'd like to try, but not if it involves giving money to Barnett. Anyone else would be fine.

Firstly, as far as I know, the details of who runs/manages the UWL in the UK will be decided upon at World Cup. I'm pretty sure it will mean there is a meeting between Tommy Cole and Gino and so I've got a sneaking suspicion Gino won't be an advocate for barnett continuing with stewardship of the UWL.

Gino is rather persuasive when it comes to things he wants and I'm sure the betterment of the UWL will be one of Gino's requirements for the UK.

Secondly, Paul [Collier], to answer your question, at least in part - it would seem that somebody is trying to deflect the blame for that UWL post toward one of the Turks.

This is ludicrous for several reasons, I'm friends with all the Turks, I've known them for 25 years and then some, they just wouldn't do it.

And besides, why the fuhk would any of them go digging around what companies I had 20 years ago, it just makes no sense.
There is only one person who's been digging around in my past and that's barnett.
I was made aware of what he was up to and what he was trying to do some time ago and I've had pretty regular updates on where he's been sticking his nose and so he is the only one who had a motive for doing that sort of cr@p.

I think sables got involved at one stage but I'm waiting on verification as to exactly what he's responsible for.
And so, I think barnett was 100% percent behind the post on the UWL thread and he did so in an effort to slur my name [again :/] but it backfired on him, again :/
When someone, more than likely barnett, attempted to point the finger of blame toward one of the Turks for writing that UWL post, Cass and Darron Docherty of the Turks immediately posted the following message on that UWL thread that barnett ended up getting deleted.

Here is their post:-

How dare you come on here and accuse us of making that post yesterday
Most of the team have known Pete and Mel for over 35 years and if you think one of us would sell a team mate,and indeed a mate, out to stick up for Tim Barnett or anyone else in this industry you obviously don't know us! We quit playing 20 years ago because we were sick of the cheating, politics and bull****, during our playing days we had a reputation for honesty and integrity and still have We started playing again for fun 18 months ago and yet here we are, once again, getting dragged into something, by you, that we have no involvement or interest in
Maybe you would like to apologise for casting your accusations our way or maybe you would like to **** off and leave us alone and not drag us into something that doesn't concern us and then you can **** off some more!
The Turks

All of those Turks guys are long-term friends of mine who I've liked and respected for decades, they are the good guys of our sport and were best known for never cheating when playing, hard to believe in a paintball team I know but it was true, they never cheated, all of those guys were honourable men and would never stoop as low as barnett has implied.

I think that post above from the Turks explains why barnett's plan to embarrass me backfired so disastrously and the post eventually getting deleted so conveniently.
barnett is a slime-bag who just keeps on giving .... What next from the master of disaster?

Pete really didn't want to get dragged into this whole thing but...


Yesterday there was a second post put up, then removed, on the UWL site. It basically insinuated that the first post by 'Tom Orsum' was written by one of your brothers team mates ie one of us Turks, here is the reply that unfortunately we didnt get time to make before the crap was removed, hope it shows how strongly we feel about being implicated in this ****e!!!

Three of us were so incensed by this bull**** that we all had something to say, so I’ve posted all three comments:-

You know nothing about us but if you would like to come and say hi at the next event, we are at Holmbush on the 8th of November, we'll be more than happy to fill you in!

The Turks



Myself or any of my team have purposely refused to get involved in the Barnett Robbo saga. To be honest we are a bunch old guys who have met up again after 15 years and are enjoying running round the woods trying to relive our glory days. As for this last episode of a Mr Tom Orsum I believed it to be another load of bollocks from someone hiding behind a keyboard and dismissed it without a thought as utter tosh. Then along comes Mr William Dunk who implies me or one of my team mates could be bothered to spend time out of their day to anonymously spout a load of ****e about another person on the Internet. As you see from this reply we are not into anything anonymous I can only assume Mr Dunk you are either f**king stupid or trying to stir up ****.
Either way it leads to a conclusion that you sir, are a prize c**t.

The Turks


The Turks will not get involved in mud slinging in the Barnett Robbo saga.
We will however take offence to anyone coming on here accusing us of being a part of this Tom Orsum business.
F**king grow up and act like adults and leave us alone so we can run round the woods with our toy guns trying to shoot each other.


THE END

A mates opinion of Tim when I mentioned they might be using Cactus paint as he hates the stuff;
Lmao!! @shoreline!!! Good, sooner Barnett is out of pb the better! Yea he's had some good ideas, venues/sites ect but he don't give a fk about the game or the customer, he only cares about himself and how much £££ he can rinse out of the players! Hopefully that's true and It won't be long till sterling tell him to jog on either! Never before have I had such a dislike for someone Iv never met!

This is based on playing zombieland

So this came in from Shoreline today re the boiler suits, after specifically telling players NOT to bring their playing gear for tomorrow, and to only wear shorts or joggers to wear under the prison jump suits...
This ontop of the cactus paint debaucle...
Can only go well.

When was this sent out? Bit short notice don't cha think?

Guys I know who played the Canada game thought the t-shirt thing was a bunch of crap.

Heh, looks like a purge has happened on the UWL UK FB group and I've been removed/blocked. Even though I don't think I've ever posted in there. Originally joined because I was interested in playing the format and then SL turned out stinky.
