    This is another example of cancelling someone because they have different political views to yourself.
    And as for banning him from posting his own predictions on a bit of fun prediction league?
    Quite pathetic.

    I'd be perfectly happy to read Kiwi's own political views and engage in debate with him. I don't, however, want to see the views of the various rabid far right nut jobs that he copies and pastes on here. I choose to ignore them

    As for the prediction league, I suggested that he get someone else to post his entries so that I can see them. I'm not banning him.

    Not that it's got anything to do with you.

    Just scroll on past them. I do and I'm sure a lot of others do too.
    It's not always "rabid far right nut jobs" that he copies and pastes. Only you and your little fan club think so I suspect.
    It's to do with me because I'm a member on this board.
    Look, I don't like you and you don't like me, that's fine.
    However, even we can "like" each other's posts occasionally when we find ourselves in agreement.
    The prediction league part is just childish.

    You're being pathetic, Strolls. Kiwi posts left wing stuff as well. Much of either extreme goes unread.

    And as for telling Col it has nothing to do with him, that's classic of a left wing desire to stifle and close down free speech...on a public posting board.

    I'm not closing down free speech, I'm applying my own filter. You and Col can go on enjoying Kiwi's far right drivel.

    Col commented on the prediction league - he doesn't take part in it, so it literally has has nothing to him.

    Dear Kiwi, I'm withdrawing your 'ignore' status for the benefit of the prediction league.

    A precis of Dominic Raab's resignation letter....

    That didn't happen.
    And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
    And if it was, that's not a big deal.
    And if it is, that's not my fault.
    And if it was, I didn't mean it.
    And if I did, you deserved it.

    The Report on Raab's bullying allegations has been published. It'll make interesting reading

    No, I commented on your treatment of Kiwi concerning the prediction league and your incorrect assertion that everything he posts is extreme right wing.
    I'm no fan of his copy and pasting, but I simply choose to ignore most of it.

    Can't say I've ever read one of kiwis copy and pastes, I wouldn't even have a clue at which way he swings politically, nor do I care. Was rather childish to ban him from the predictions thread Strolls. There's some people I think are absolute tits on here yet I can agree with them over football related opinions. Infact anyone who gets lippy will soon find themselves banned from my Megan royal family ****e thread!!!! You've been warned!!

    He wasn't banned for ****'s sake.

    Just to be clear - after I put him on ignore, I wouldn't have been able to see his prediction league entries, so I suggested he get someone else to post them. I've now removed his ignore status so that I can see them

    Just to point out. I deleted Kiwis Xmas clock thread for the good of the team...and I am still processing whether or not it worked or not.

    If it was up again versus Burnley, and we lost..... then I could delete again for the last 2 matches of season, giving us a chance at avoiding relegation

    Jesus Strolls, I’d never have put you down as a fascist dictator on par with Adolf and Benito.
    Disappointed to say the least. Glad you saw sense and took away the unjust ban

    I didn't read that post, so can't say whether it is unlawful, but do take care not to censor this thread for political reasons, Beth

    That's just shutting down free speech, Beth. Typical leftie behaviour.
