    Unfortunately there will always be sick jokes - in this case almost literally gallows humour. Personally I don't appreciate it when it is still relatively recent and a horrible thing for his family. Gary Speed seemed a thoroughly decent bloke and was doing a great job as Wales Manager.

    Most of us on here have complimented both Hull and Cardiff fans - there has been some good banter and most of it good natured too. Hope you do well next year

    Goes a bit beyond 'unfortunate' Leo.MODERATORS,dont you have a way of keeping individuals off ?(you must have been tempted with me a few times). '''jokes''' about suicide to get a bit of attention go way beyond the usual 'freedom of speech' excuse and this ,whatever he is ,is quite a regular on here.In need of treatment before can be considered fit for the 'air waves'.

    Toby Jug Brain hope nothing like that ever happens in YOUR family......you're a Louse.
    Well Done for pointing it out Sussex.

    Without going inot the morals of it, that "joke" was made on a different forum (general chat) and not the Watford one. I'm sure if people made comments like that on here the mods would act immediately.

    Our strikers have scored that many braces this season, I'm surprised that a dentist hasn't moved into the Vic, but for some reason I can see the 10 year wait (or (I think) 16 in the case of a home match) for a Watford player to get a hat-trick will be broken in these last 2 games. I think we'll win that match, but I couldn't call the other one.

    Forgive the intrusion, but I fail to see how ANYONE can find such a thing funny! I am honestly disgusted!

    From what I can gather the General Forum is not a pleasant place to visit - I never go there and if this so called joke is an example then I don't need to reconsider. I have confidence that our two Mods would not ignore such offensive material herre

    Leo, I too avoid General Chat like the plague, but as far as I'm concerned that "joke" is out of order on ANY forum! Just my opinion!

    But you don't go on general chat which is where all that kind of stuff is posted. Nobody would have known about it if someone in a fit of pique hadn't trawled through all of his previous posts trying to fidn soemthing to be offended by <ok>

    Agreed with the 'joke' comments. Not only that but it has somewhat hijacked what was a pretty decent thread. C'mon mods, as much as I deplore censorship and I contend that in comedy "no-one has the right not to be offended" (John Cleese) but this is an opportunity for positive censorship!
    It's a pity SussexBlueBird did not leave just the link but chose to post the joke too, an error of judgement methinks.

    Everything points to you lot sewing it up at the weekend. But..........................................
    Is it too late to get the rules changed and scrap the play offs so we can both go up?

    not going to lie though, i'm feeling nervous about it. The quicker friday comes so we know what to do the better.

    I would like either you or Brighton to go up with us though but as your in third you deserve the play offs more than the rest.

    The only thing that is certain is that we won't be playing Brighton in the semi-final of the play-offs - all other options are still on the table.

    It's definitely ours to lose. I wouldn't put it past City to mess up big time... <doh>

    It's certainly going to be an interesting weekend!
