Sadly he is going to get ridiculed by some very stupid people. You're right it's freedom of speech. Personally I wouldn't say stuff like that. I even had a right row on the train with some drunk Ipswich fans who thought the Fashanu song was cool. It's not, no way would I join in with crap like that! He's going to carry on with or without encouragement, I think that's quite obvious. He loves it!
I guess he is well aware that there are those who take the piss, both at his video's and on a personal level, any idea how he feels about it? My guess is that he is well aware, and it doesn't bother him.
That comment is obviously aimed at me and TBH I thought the bloke was 'hamming it up' as I always have done, rather than having a real disability. I have to say I feel rather ashamed to have posted that now and regret doing so
I'm philosophically agin the principle of bans.It's true that JWM can get a bit hot under the collar at times,but in truth he is easy enough to deal with due to his limited intellectual capacity.You know that in the end he will make a fool of himself if he continues any kind of discourse beyond his personal red line,which is about the level of a Sun editorial. As for Ipswich Crazy he's just an old style Suffolk jostler. You could probably have enough of the lad given time but he has a certain Je ne ce quais,but I don't know what it is.
For those that are wondering about the temporary banning, one of the alternatives we came up with was the possibility of having all our matchday threads 'passworded' so that there would be no wumming involved. Now if anyone would care to have a work with the site owner Mick, to see if that is possible, and then implement it, I will cheerfully thrott...erm I mean unband the Ipswich 2.
Mods - may I ask exactly why they they were banned? The fact that I am essentially questioning the action of moderators is not lost on me though, so I apologise in advance for that.
As the person who normally composes these Resurgam, I wouldn't be in favour of this as I generally post links on Twitter to my threads encouraging people to join the forum and participate. Whether we have a few more lurkers now because of that I really don't know, but as I say I wouldn't want my threads to be pass-worded if it was down to me Edit:- tomorrow's match thread should be up and running later tonight
Fair enough for me skip, it is very tedious hearing those two broken records on everyone single thread on our board. Banter is one thing, the same inane drivel every time is something else. I'm right behind you.
Like many of those posting I am currently overseas - Tajikistan at the moment for my sins. Reading posts is a great way of keeping up with developments at the club from a fan's perspective eg looking at the stats during the crash under NA gave no indication of the problems with the team that was regularly highlighted. When every thread was high-jacked it became tedious reading. Happy for reasonable banter but they produce SPAM not banter or insight.
I love Millwall more than I do Leeds. This has to be said very loudly and has to be your new user name for at least 3 seasons, for the you to access the threads Chippy
I'm not in favour of banning, it makes us look bad. My own boundaries are it is OK to belittle opinion but I do try to refrain from blatant name calling of posters. JWM does this but he doesn't do it enough. I've no idea why he is banned and I suspect the mods may not be giving the whole truth. Finally, I am perplexed at the timing, after winning 2-0 it seems a daft time to pull the plug on them.
A majority decision of 3? How many people actually asked them to be banned? This is what annoys me a bit, just because others don't send you messages to you to say they do not believe in banning then you do not get a complete view. You mods get your fingers burned everytime you do this, just leave the forum alone. People have the ignore option if they want, but those that do miss out as far as I'm concerned.
We know your views carrabuh, you have told us many times, but we are not prepared to keep losing good posters because they are being put off the site by 90% of posts on this board are from the two usual suspects on a wumming spree!
Sorry carrabuh but I will not name people that have messaged me in confidence, you'll have to trust me on that!
