Generally speaking there are only a few people on here with the intelligence to understand banter, have debate and use the winky things in the right place. Those people will know who they are.
now lad you know that is just condescending self righteous bollox
Too too predictable, I’m afraid. :)I’m saying what everyone else is thinking but for the record it was meant for Bicky

Brilliant lad xxx :lol:
It will be a fair few. You were always witty and humorous even on the old CL which was fine but i am sure many will agree, Over the past 2 years or so it has become too malicious. It all stemmed from when there was a pro/anti Martinez divide. We know you rated him, Probably because he is a nice chap and you met him quite a few times and wouldn’t hear a bad word against him or his ethics. I think that is why you started getting so defensive and aggressive. Thats the last i will say on it and bid you a farewell again for now.
Well, as you’ve gone into retirement again you obviously won’t see this, but…
That was probably the case for me and LMB falling out, but all that has been put to bed. At least he can spot a wind-up when he sees one.
My aggression on this forum usually came from some other people’s inability to form a decent argument on many issues, not just the Martinez issue. On that particular subject though, many people could never manage anything more coherent than “Martinez is a useless Spanish prick” and that was the sort of post that would get my back up and end up with me launching from both barrels.
Anyway, those on this forum that do know me will tell you my real persona bears little resemblance to the one displayed on here. I met a bloke I used to play football with over ten years ago at a funeral last week and he said something along the lines of “you’re a piss-taking bastard on that Cockney Latic, they don’t know you very well, do they?”
Still, as I said yesterday, it’s probably time for a new leaf to be turned. I probably have gone too far with some of the stuff I have said. However, I still seriously doubt that anyone has left this site because of me, but if they have, then more fool them and it really says more about them than it does me, as someone else has already said.[/quote]
Wasn’t expecting the last paragraph but fair play to you for typing it. Griff i have been hanging around CL since it’s infancy and you were always a character. Think your username then was V455Griff or summat. Correctly you pull people up when they are blatantly wrong and i would consider you to have a considered approach, However, as i stated in the last post, When someone says something that you are strongly siding for you turn into ‘one of us’ and the academical hierarchy you take kind of goes out of the window. I will be honest with you, One of the main reasons i still view this forum as a guest is because of you and a couple more who, When are approached on certain subjects, have a really good view on things and it makes for an interesting read. If i didn’t find it interesting i wouldn’t read the forum or even follow you on facebook. It’s the petty bickering that pisses me off on here. It isn’t a case of having a different point of view on here any more, It’s like everyone is waiting to jump onto someone for something they have said. The rugby posts are just desperately diabolical, They are the ones that get under my skin because there is just no need.
The last bit wasn’t aimed at you btw.

Are you going yet?
I’ll hold the door open.
Think your username then was V455Griff or summat.Griff_v103 – name and seat number. My “office door” was/is always open but it was rare that anyone would pop in for a chat*
However, as i stated in the last post, When someone says something that you are strongly siding for you turn into ‘one of us’ and the academical hierarchy you take kind of goes out of the window.We’ll have to agree to disagree slightly. I maintain I generally only launch childishly – and I freely admit that I do – at posters/posts that simply don’t deserve to be taken seriously, in my view. Let me explain.
People want this to be a serious deabting forum, yet we have supposedly grown-up people referring to the rubgy as “Thugby” or “fat mongs feeling other men’s groins” – I’d bollock my 9-year old for constructing such a moronic, unintelligent argument.
We have supposedly grown men referring to Dulham, Wet Spam and Blunderland.
We have people calling Whelan a tight old c***, despite the true facts of his investment in the club being laid bare on countless occasions. None so blind as those that will not see, as I have said before.
We have ‘fans’ devoting a 600-post threads to childishly sneering at a former, much-admired by most, manager without offering anything sensible ofher than he’s a f***** Judas and “he’ll have them in the bottom four before you know it” and not even giving up or conceding when they’re proved wrong time and time again. Fair play to WereGoingToBarnsley for persevering with that thread for so long, by the way, I saw my arse with it long ago.
It’s that’s kind of sneering, sarcastic, playground nature of some threads that get my back up and make me respond in kind. They don’t deserve any better. Yes, Wiganmon, that is aimed at you, amongst some others.
So, as I have, decided to cut out the childish, insulting, wind-up stuff if it clearly upsets some so much. Let’s see how grown-up those moaning really can be.
Anyway, back to work!
* yes, that was deliberately made to sound like my head is up my arse
