    Is this because of the article in the Sun that appeared about him ?

    Dave,
    I see you're a member since 2008 so may I assume you were witness of the events finding place on the forum in May?
    People from the military community joined this forum to ask Bob questions first trough PM later publicly on Bob's Q&A. As this got quite a lot of activity here I would be surprised if you have missed it. To guard the serenity of the threads on this forum there was decided to take the Q&A off. This was before the Sun article.
    Kind Regards,
    Nick Engelen

    Yes, I can't believe I missed it.It has come as a Big surprise, if what has been alleged is true. I bought all his dvds and it makes me question the integrity of Richard Grannon who worked and appeared with him in them.

    Hi Dave,
    Sorry but the fact we closed the q&a also means that we don't like to discuss this matter on this forum.
    Kind Regards,

    Discussing is ok but baiting is not.. regarding Richard Grannon you should talk to him regarding his teachings as I have never been taught by him.
    My take on Bob is what he taught was very good and extremely effective.
    The way he chose to market himself was his choice.
    Do I rate Bob as an instructor Yes, very highly because the stuff he taught works.

    This is genuinely a question and not opening floodgates I hope but has anyone on here heard from Bob as to the whys and wherefores of special forces claims?

    All his sites have had the SAS info removed and it seems that the Sun and the army forum were right in their suspicions, but I`ve never heard his side of things.

    I`m not baiting or winding anyone up, I think it would draw a line under the whole thing if he`d put out a statement and then he could get on with his muay thai or nlp or whatever he chooses to do next with a clear conscience.

    cheers

    Nope

    I've not heard from Bob for quite some time

    I don't have any answers - I guess the only person who can answer these questions is Bob - and as he hasn't posted on here for a long time either - therefore, this probably isn't the best place to post questions

    However, I think he is still teaching Muay Thai, so I'm sure if anyone was really interested in finding out from the horses mouth - so to speak, he wouldn't be too difficult to find.

    This was the reason we closed down his Q&A section - because it hardly makes any sense to keep posting questions on a forum that is not being frequented by the person they are directed at.

    It got tedious, repetitive and not at all what this forum is about.

    This thread is in danger of starting things all over again - so I will nip it in the bud right here.

    Thanks

    Al
