    Taffy

    Hello again

    I'd like you to understand something taffy. I appreciate that you are attempting to emit an aura of confident intelligence but your passive aggressive approach betrays your true self and your continuous, and incorrect, labelling of all/any who oppose your view renders your attempt at 'debate' both vein and transparent.

    You obviously do not have the wit to carry this off taffy, so, if you are going to continue posting, living, on my Swansea forum with my fellow Jack brothers for as much as you do then may I suggest you try out the strange virtue of honesty.

    Taffyboy, stop pretending to be fair minded, level headed and up for debate and suggestion even when under pressure. Your not that person taffy, so stop cowering behind your diaphanous façade and post with real intention, show your true face because only one is required.

    I'll help you, IMHO you are a passionate fan of a club you love, I can see that so I would like you to stop diluting the rage and hate you have for all things Jack, all thing Swansea City.

    'Come as you are' so to speak and give us your true best. We can take it, we're big enough, we're tough enough, we are Jacks, we are THE MIGHTY SWANS. Have some respect in yourself taffy, have some respect for your club taffy, you're a bloob, act like one, stop the bull and come get us.

    In this new dawn of honesty taffy, help me out, let me know what you think a bigot is. Ta <ok>

    "diaphanous",what a great word.

    If I knew what it meant I could sneak it into the word association thread.

    He's not that Greek striker we were looking at recently,is he?

    Stump, I hate no one, this is a message board for all which is broken down into sub-sections. You can enter any sub-section and discuss the topic on that sub-section, in this case Swansea football club.

    Bigot: One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ.

    diaphanous = transparent

    taffyboy, your definition describes you perfectly. Is that how you see yourself ?

    Try this one taff

    "a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially : one who regards or treats the members of a group (such as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance."

    Its the racial or ethnic part which makes me consider you calling someone on this forum a bigot as out of context and completely and utterly wrong on every level.

    It appears that you view a disagreement on a football forum as racist. How petulant of you to say, think or even consider this. I'm sure someone who has truly experienced the full force of racism might have something to say to you.

    All I'll say on the matter is that you are injuring your credibility as someone to be taken seriously in any context. The fact that you confuse name calling with racial hatred makes you an individual of

    1. such low morals, with even less respect, that you care so little for racism and all the pain it encompasses that you are able to glibly throw such a vile comparison at someone on a football forum in order to win a paltry point in a meaningless discussion

    or

    2. You are at the low end of the intelligence scale and do have the mental capacity to understand the full meaning of the words you expel or the connotations of their use.

    I hope its the later and the use of such incendiary and despicable vocabulary is purely down to your lack of intelligence and intellect. If its the first then you do not have any rite to post on this or any other forum.

    I notice you did not highlight "such as" in your message.
    Constant name calling is not bigotry? I beg to differ, it is also bullying which is no less acceptable. The word bigot does not only lend itself to racism.
    I do not consider a disagreement on a footbal forum as racism, where did you unearth that little gem? The constant sniping at VT and the use of racial stereotyping is a form of racism and it is employed here on a regular basis.
    With reference to our board, I have made my views known to all that gypo and pikie are not acceptable terms but I do not have the power to remove offenders as the super-mod has deemed those terms as accetable on the forum. Your point 1 & 2 are pathetic and need no more comment.

    taffyboy

    You quote that a 'super-mod' of unknown name, sex, political bias, nationality, moral view, in fact a black hole of information, has wisely deemed the use of derogatory terms to describe people from Swansea as acceptable. An unknown individual, who may or may not exist, said its OK for you to use these derogatory terms, and that's all OK with you?

    Such strong moral judgement you have taffyboy, that you, an individual with such high morals and esteem needs someone else to tell you what you can and can't say. .

    With every letter of every word you are becoming more apparent. You have, just in the last two posts, proven yourself to be devoid of any personal moral judgement. You following whichever moral compass allows you to strike with impunity, I can call you this, a super-mod said so, but you can't call me that. As long as your argument remains intact any means to achieve it is acceptable. Now, that's pathetic taffy.

    Up until now you were entertainment but now you are defined taffy and you can attempt to bluff us all with your poor presence of indignation as much as you wish, you have defined yourself as, and I quote you

    "Bigot: One who is strongly partial to one's own group, religion, race, or politics and is intolerant of those who differ " = taffthefish.

    It is plain for all to see that you are incapable intellectual debate as was shown by your inability to address points made in my post #47. Forever the optimist, I give you another opportunity or chance to retort.

    So, here's you chance to shine taffyboyo, re points in my post #47, are you a number1 or a number2 ?

    Work now, catch you here or there taffy

    Stump, look up brb he/she is the super-mod.
    I have let the folks on our board know my views on racism and am not able to do more as I do not have the tools.
    I have addressed your points.

    Shoot me down in flames if you want to, but have always found Taff to be pretty straight forward and decent on this, and the Cardiff board. But even his most reasonable points result in him being insulted and derided - banter is fine, but let's stop the personal insults!

    I do feel sorry to some extent with the Redbirds, they were between a rock and a hard place, there's no denying though that I would have taken admin and got the club back into the control of grass roots supporters, and built on a solid foundation. Shame is they took the other route, and got well and truly shafted by a foreigner. Clearly the Bluebirds and it's history disappeared when the 'Mighty Tin Tan' decreed the end of the Bluebirds, and the birth of the 'Red Dragons' and while there is still a minority of protest from a few Bluebirds, who's listening? nobody, and it's futile as Kairdiff are now a franchise toy for some Billionaire Malaysian business man..............<ok>

    No excuse for insults,but he should be able to handle a touch of derision,which isn't that too far removed from banter,if you have an open mind.

    Taff is a regular,and welcome, visitor here now,and he knows what to expect if his posts take a particular line.

    He was on the BBC radio this a.m., Dragon, bemoaning the lack of 100% support from the fans'. He again intimated that he may walk away.

    Tan did an interview recently say in Cardiff were the least wealthiest club in premier league. I thought the bloke was stacked according to the natives. :)

    He was probably thinking about their debt and the hefty interest he is charging them for loans. What a set-up.
