    When this forum kicked off, it was a useful spot to share all Leeds matters, the good and not so good. Recently though, every single post is being hijacked by the same few depressing jackasses who only seem to have one agenda. They may or may not be right, but turning every single post into an anti you know who one is becoming painfully boring. Towards its end,the old bbc site had gone a similar route thanks to a select few. It's fair to say, this one will fade away if it becomes impossible to have any proper discussion. Would it be too much to ask for a more balanced forum to visit.

    I thought this too, but I will give Marko & Elmo time to let the penny drop.

    Everyone has an opinion and they may well be right, hopefully they will stick around and just calm it down a bit...

    <magic> Plus I think that Scum are about to implode so we may get distracted.

    I think this at the end of most seasons where they've not done well, but the bastards usually come back fighting. :(

    Plus their neighbours who are taking over the top spot are going to become equally grating, if they haven't already.

    Bollocks, I'm being gloomy again. Here's some happy emoticons to cheer us up:

    I know what you mean about them always coming up smelling of roses, but they always fail in the end...

    Ok, I'll bite.

    Your view is it's ok to have an opinion as long as it is not an opinion you don't want to hear?

    Sounds a bit Stalinist to me. But I'll give it a go.

    As long as you shut the **** up about being pro-Bates and happy about how things are going and optimistic about the coming season, cos I can't understand how you are.

    So please - if you have an opinion that really grates me, do you think I should tell you that you should not be allowed to air it?

    Deal,

    I agree the following season on paper does not look good so far, I cant explain the optimism but perhaps it my natural defence against the pessimism setting in.

    Lets move it forward and talk about the future..

    Exactly point I was making. It'll eventually end up like the BbC one with just the handful of boring moaners left.

    You, Eire. The argument about "depressing jackasses with only one agenda" can be aimed straight back at you: cover-up, head in the sand.

    But if you want a balanced forum, how about one that only has your point of view on it? That would be balanced, no?

    I suggest you don't have the faintest idea what balance is. Balance is two opposites being equal. I'd suggest that is exactly what we have.

    Except one side doesn't like it so is trying to demand "more" balance

    You read Animal Farm?

    If you constantly look for something, you will find it. Irrespective of all the other threads and posts that do not relate to the thing you are specifically looking for, as soon as you find it you continue to claim that is all that some posters talk about. You are like a broken record.

    I would say that your "same old ****" is even more boring - all you do is point out how you don't want a conversation, instead of having the conversation in the first place. Boring duffer.

    I'm no bates supporter but I'm not paranoid to the point of trying to force my opinions down the throats of everyone on here. It's impossible to read any tread, and I mean any tread, without the bores appearing with the same old ****e

    You claim you're not clever enough to even converse at the level of idiocy!?

    I would disagree, I'd suggest you are a master of the art
