Honest mistake mate but tbf it wasn't even a pop at you, it was general.

I just find it insulting that dozens of people are called sycophants simply because they agree with summat I've said.

Most people, on here, are more than capable of making up their own minds ...

... suggesting they're stupid and in my thrall is very poor.

You're obviously not <laugh>
I grew up in Sunderland in the 70s and 80s with 3 sisters and no other family bar parents from London.You find out very quickly with no older brothers or cousins or anything (when your family is from London) that you have no one to rely on but yourself and you see and find as you can. If someone is a twunt, I don’t need to be around them. Otherwise even if they’re a bit iffy I’ll give them leeway. I just do my own thing and try and do good and be good. I ain’t got a problem with anyone on here and glad you showed me the way here, but I’ll have my say, whether you agree with it or not. And that’s all I have to say about that ;-)
 
I don’t know he’s Exile. I like whatever posts I like. I didn’t know there was an Exile thing going on. Still wouldn’t mean I wouldn’t like his post.
I had the negative git on ignore until January 1st, then made a new year's resolution yo read posts their posts.. then the tit gets banned for posting anti Smug stuff about him helping others with tickets iirc. 2 days later another poster arrives with a very similar pro tory, anti labour, negative towards the club and not going to the matches stance... he hasn't refrained from his negativity, so I'll call him out to be a tit until proven wrong.

That’s your call kidder. I liked one post. Smug likes a ding dong and he was getting it. Sometimes in a 15 round bout you go - you know what - that was a good jab.

I don't though mate, I get on with almost everyone on here and just like to chat about the club, etc.

I will have a pop at anyone clearly going wildly off topic just to attack the club over something entirely different.

I've looked back at the post in response to your winky face and have to say you've read it wrong.

You're thinking it's a dig at you when it absolutely isn't.

And you can sometimes read the room wrong, and receive a good jab for your trouble

I’ll have a look again in the morrow.
 
cynical, boring repeated posts, always under attack, continuing the very same vendetta as always 'Mr i will not back down'.

i have seen the bloke post decent stuff but this personal battle needs to stop, i really do not blame either of them for replies but ffs it has gone on far too long...please, if nothing else, put each other on ignore.

Fair enough that mate.

It all hinges on first team performance at this point. We've got an increasing reputation for developing young talent, but that stalls if we're bottom third of the able all the time and with a revolving door of managers. Teams don't like sending their kids to basket case clubs and that's what we looked like last season.

Still plenty to build on, I agree. I'm a fan of the big picture, which is why my pants are currently on. I ehsll take them off when my new shorts arrive next weekend.
That is a very narrow view of a football club. To place everything solely on first team affairs. Sure the first team is the tip of the spear but you have to have the foundations in place to provide strength in depth otherwise the first team will fall apart.

I don’t even look who’s wrote the post, I just give a like if I like it. I think I’ve even given you one or two :emoticon-0136-giggl

Once you have a structure in place the first team performance dictates how well it can be implemented.

Because our structure is based on attracting young players and giving them a pathway to the first team, along with a few bigger teams loanees who they want developing, the better the first team does the better the overall strategy does.

Would we send Rigg to a team full of kids scratting around the bottom of League One?

Speakman has said a number of times they don't want to rely on loans.
