Bits & Bobs

Ive picked 2 fights in my short time here. One with Lord Stifflip who thinks we should spend our few quid on the away fans, and one with Cashman who has driven most posters away with his endless dense drivel.

My first 'fight' was a well constructed and reasoned post as to why we shouldnt spend our pence on away fans. That was picked to pieces because I havent been here long enough to have an opinion contrary to others.

Fair dos, I'll leave you all to your guess the gate competitions.
 
you have a right to your opinions sparacus2nd like we all have. life would be really boring if we all thought the same unless you or anyone else just comes on to wind others up for the sake of it.
 
You mean like Lord love a rocket ?
I have a bit of sympathy for Spartacus here.
I’ve always felt there’s a club within a club and if you’re not a member then your views are simply not accepted regardless.

Doesn't surprise me at all that some recently recruited contributors to our Forum find Cahman's forthright style of constructing and replying to posts relating to all things Stanley
somewhat disconcerting.

Indeed, I for one, in my salad days, on one occasion crossed swords with him over some quite trivial matter if I remember rightly, but quickly realised from following other posts from Cashy, that all he wrote came from the heart of one of our Club's staunchest supporters, that was his style, and that was that !.

Can I suggest that Spartacus2 and anyone else who takes up the cudgel with the gentleman In question or indeed anyone with whom they find disagreement and takes a measure of high dudgeon at their reply .Firstly, reads this post carefully, and then counts to ten..Then if any offence is still felt felt creates a response which demonstrates their feelings without resorting to tasteless rambling, whilst proving that they are able to do much better than making negative retorts. This by keeping to the thread being discussed at the time.
You'll feel a much better person for it, believe me !.

The truth is that like the majority of our contributors I hate finding acerbic material appearing on our Forum, but it has always been so, and will without doubt continue to appear in posts in the future. This is not capitulation on my part, merely me being realistic.

Correct Cashman is mad about supporting Stanley that is and doesn't bite your head off when speaking with him.

I have orated with Cashman (as i have with most of you), in person, many times henceback. I concur that, in person, he is a more humble, slightly more personable character than his online persona suggests. So is he a keyboard warrior then?

Look, th'end of the day, I say it how it is as well. Folk who offer retorts of 'clown' or 'yeh dense' will always stimulate my ire. Cashman has better vocabulary and at his age should have better manners than to resort to such comments. Sometimes its better to say nowt than to comment every other post for the sake of it

Thing is if some didn't comment regular the forum would probably DIE and close like the ultras forum did, or is that beyond yer logic?
 
If the forum was more welcoming and less condescending to newer members then perhaps it wouldnt be in such a grave state that your biilious posts are seen as its lifeblood.

The Ultras forum 'died' because it didnt need to used anymore. Its secret section (for active ultras rather than nosy pedestrians), carried on for longer than the public section

we were all new members at one time ot another and none of us think the same or agree with everything or everybody all the time. think in your case its a bit like if you start a new job and give an impression of running from the off and not taking things a little slower just to bed in. i,m open to abuse on any of my posts due to lack of capitals and poor spelling.

Spartacus, I for one would like to warmly welcome you. After you’ve been ‘observing’ from afar for years i’m so relieved you’ve joined, if only to tell the rest of us just how ‘grave’ this forum is.
Funny, until you came along, we didn’t realise.
