    The guy is just like KPR in my opinion, the only difference is that he doesn't use obvious insults like "Slurgie" and "Manure". I certainly wouldn't miss him if he was to be banned, just like he has been on other sites, although if he was to be banned I would expect to see a new user appear shortly after with a very similar writing style, it's easier to just put him on ignore, he's just trying to provoke a reaction and if you don't give him that satisfaction then he'll probably get bored after a while when nobody answers him, it may take a while though because he is rather obsessed.

    It is quite clear that the majority of United fans on this thread cannot debate anything that criticises their club.

    All I have done is post an article from somebody else and gave my opinion that I think Fergie and his handling of the press is at times pathetic! What is so bad about that?

    Why does this lead to insults? Why does this have people calling for me to be banned? Why does this lead to death threats sent to me via a personal message?

    Seriously, this is a petty subject, but it is news worthy and thus should be able to be discussed on here, but alas it cannot be without insults, death threats and ****in embarrassing childish responses.

    As for the responses saying, 'it was a joke' etc. I'm sorry but I am not sure when people are joking on here or not, it is the third time I have received threats of violence, including two death threats...is this really what this board is all about, is this really the level of 'debate' that has to be endured when you say something negative about Man U?

    <ok>

    I don't really do the internet bad man thing, but there is no point debating with you when you can only see the bad stuff that comes from our club. Most of us will happily say when someone has done something stupid like Rio's recent tweet. A lot of us will happily admit it was a stupid thing to be doing.

    Are you really surprised that you only get negative responses seeing as you clearly come on how to try to make Manchester United look bad thats all your interested in, you should expect to get told to **** off really.

    The whole point of this forum is to debate isn't it?

    You will always get people who write anti-United stuff on here, just like you get the majority of United fans writing pro-United stuff, that's the way these type of boards work. And from those articles you should get a reasonable level of debate, with people discussing the issues, but on here you get a **** load of abuse without people even bothering to read the article or what it is about. So what I criticise United, if you want a love-in then you are on the wrong forum.

    This article is about Fergie's handling of the press, that's all...why cannot that be discussed without resorting to death threats and threats of violence and calls for me to be banned? It is ****ing embarrassing to read some of the **** on here.

    Maybe I expect too much from a supposed debating forum. But if for example, someone wrote an article criticising Deeping (not that they would, but as an example), my first response would not be to write a comment about kicking the OP's head in, or threatening to kill them, or whinging that the OP should be banned...it is a forum ffs, it takes all sorts, it should be fun/light-hearted/and enjoyable. Yet people on here get so wound up by little 'ol me that they turn the article into a childish hate-fest...can people not just discuss things like adults?

    <ok>

    I don't want a United love in at all that's why we here on a multiboard forum but your views are bias, your hatred of United effects them to much for me to see a point in debating.

    We all know Fergie knows how to handle the press as well to claim he's 'losing it' is nonsense.

    Aren't everyone's views biased? Does people's love for United make you see no 'point in debating' as well? Or is that form of bias okay to you?

    From what you have just posted, it seems that you have a problem with someone who is biased against United, but are fine with people who are biased for United.

    Yet you say you are on a multi-board forum because you don't want a love-in, yet feel you cannot debate with someone who is anti-United, that is a bit backward isn't it, it seems like that to me anyway.

    Anyway, you started to discuss the actual thread with your last comment, you didn't go into much detail but you were actually debating the issue at hand...not too hard is it! <ok>

    If you don't like it don't read it, it's really that simple, your here because you choose to be not because we want you here, I'm sure none of the United fans on here would lose any sleep if you were to stop posting. As for the article, I'm not interested in anything that "disillusioned United supporter" writes, he takes criticism of his articles as badly as anybody you are complaining about on here, he usually resorts to childish insults and pathetic comments about peoples IQ whenever anybody disagrees with him.

    It was a joke on my part. Not only that, it was ****ing OBVIOUSLY a joke on my part. Stop whining, you completely ignored the bit about Dalglish's maltreatment of the press so don't give it the incapable of debate bollocks.

    Simple! What are you on about, how am I supposed to not read it when it is on an article that I created?

    As for the author of the article I quoted, it is nice to see someone actually putting some effort into addressing the thread topic. I don't know who he is, so I can't comment on him, but isn't it refreshing that at least two United fans have actually commented on the topic within the last hour without resorting to threats, insults, talking of bans etc.

    It doesn't take much does it, a simple observation and everyone is better informed as to the origin of the article. I like that way of using the forum better than just typing 'Fuck Off you Cunt' on my keyboard everytime I see something that I don't like! <ok>

    Obvious to you obviously, not to me unfortunately!

    As for me not commenting about Dalglish, the reason I ignored it is because it has nothing to do with this article. I also never mentioned Allardyce's treatment of the press, or Redknapp's, or anyone else's for the simple reason that the article I used as the source was about Fergie...not Dalglish, not Allardyce, but Fergie.

    Fair enough, if you want to talk about Dalglish as a way of deflecting what was written about Fergie, but I didn't reply as the thread would then get sidetracked and turn into a Liverpool/United slagging match!

    Do you understand now why I ignored it, it wasn't that I was incapable of debate, it was because it was completely irrelevant! If you want to talk about Dalglish's treatment of the media then write an article about it, I will then comment on said article as that would be the best way and the best place to discuss that particular issue, doing it on this thread is neither! <ok>

    Awww, diddums. Sorry to have inter threatened you, honest I am. It has everything to do with the article. Selectively ignoring what people write then complaining no one can debate. Makes you look a right prick. Not that you need any help.

    Why would I want to discuss Dalglish when the article is implicitly about Fergie?

    Do you think that a discussion that centres solely on Fergie's 'control' of the media, Fergie's dealings with the BBC and Fergie's banning of journalists, should include and thus invite discussion about Dalglish?

    If so fair enough, I think it was best ignored as to avoid the usual United/Liverpool arguments.

    Maybe the forum should just do away with specific articles and everyone should just write what they want on one big article...you could then divert any discussion away from Fergie and talk about the pies at Southampton or the colour of Leyton Orient's home kit. <ok>

    The reality is this, if you ONLY want to discuss/slag off Fergie then you posted on the wrong board. You post on the United board you will get the counter argument. That's just perfectly natural. There is no way you can just post this on here and expect us all to go 'yeah, you're right. It's just Fergie who does this'. For that, post on the Liverpool board.

    But I didn't get the counter-argument from most people did I?

    I mainly got threats, calls for me to be banned etc.

    Is that what you mean by counter-arguments?

    Anyway, it is only now that people are commenting with relevance. If the 'natural' responses to anything remotely negative are what we initially saw on this thread then that is a sad reflection on this board and its users in general.

    Night. <ok>
