I recognised one from the first time I looked at this site. In fact, I do not think I have ever replied to one of his posts.

Chazz, there is more of a chance that you are also Charlie one!

Speaking of Charlies, whatever happened to charliej18? Anyone else remember that prat?

Hmm... I wonder if he never left...
 
I have been to most U21 games this season and Max Clarke isn't good enough, he just hasn't moved on after looking a good prospect. It could be that he is having a dip in performance and will push on again, but this season hasn't done enough. Matty Dixon could step up as can Greg Luer and I like Olley, but I do agree that I would like to see them get game time in the cup games.
Hate to agree with this as i dont like slating the young uns for the ressies. Clarke plays CM now anyway and as you say Dixon looks the better player. Clarkes younger mind and might come again. Fingers crossed.

But at the end of the day Steve Bruces job is about winning games for Hull City not helping a young kids career, he'll do whats right for the club and the team. Harsh but true.
 
I don't mind having coppers on here, in fact I do think that there could be one poster who is. But if Tigercave is one, he shouldn't be.

I agree about the forum. I don't mind the multi posters, whatever turns them on, I just think that others on here should be aware that the anonymous nature of a forum, gives some opportunities to play games.

Obviously we can see IP's that relate to multiple accounts, it happens very rarely and we delete them as they come to our notice. Most of those accused of multi-posting aren't actually multi-posting at all.

You can change your IP address all day long with a VPN - I'm guessing anyone pathetic enough to have multi-accounts will have one?

Several multi-posters have been deleted while using proxy servers, if I suspect someone of multi-posting and I can see they're trying to hide their IP, then I'll delete the account anyway. I'm sure there's some more sophisticated ways of hiding things, but the main way of spotting someone is the style of their posts anyway.
 
In that case why are you so condescending at times when people express an opinion?
If you have a stupid opinion then obviously someone will pull you up on it.

If you write Elmo doesnt give a ****. Its a stupid opinion. If you write Elmo isnt playing as well as he can, its an intelligent opinion based on what you're seeing.

What you are saying is that you know better, which is to quote Steve Bruce 'bullshit', if somebody has a different opinion to you then who are you to 'pull them up on it'?

I said someone will. If you, and not just you, post anything people comment. If you talk rubbish people will call you on it.
Isnt it about time you asked others to support you?

So when the O/P says
It strikes me, that the only thing Bruce recognises because he cannot address his own inadequacies is a pint of lager and a pork pie…

It makes him a ****. Go back over his posts. All the same negative bullshit.

I agree about negative stuff usually, I don't know about that fellas history either. I'm prepared to change my mind about most things if the argument is strong enough or I can see evidence to support a different view. I don't agree with what you said about Luer but I wouldn't say you shouldn't be alllowed near sharp objects because of it as it's your opinion even if I think it's wrong.
 
There's some good posts on this thread but why do we have to trawl through piles of bollocks again to read them?

Stop been a bunch of bitches and stick to thread topics..
There is some good debates to be had on here and clued up fans.
Make the most of it and this board would be better for all of us.
 
Name them.

"It's clear that you haven't figured out that people of my generation tend to have grandchildren who can read. I would not want them to be exposed to your vile rants on any of the frequent occasions they borrow my iPad. But then again, that thought probably gives you a rare hard-on."

What a ****.

Go on, don't be shy. Name them, or accept that our mods speak the truth.
 
Luer will score goals, if it's for us or North Ferriby is another question. One thing that frustrates me is the fact he won't get the chance here. Take for example the left back at Leciester, Chidwell is it. If he was at our club there is no doubt in my mind he wouldn't have had the chance. Now he will be in the England U21's in a month or to and be a great prospect from two cup performances. The other thing I don't understand is, looking at York at the bottom of League 2, Luer will score goals down there why is no one taking a punt. The final thing is do we think Luer would take the chances Akpom has missed. If we send Hayden back we are sending the wrong one back to Arsenal!

Luer is a grafter from what I've seen so far, also he takes on instructions very well, he ran himself into the ground when I saw him play the lone striker role in the cup earlier in the season. Like has been mentioned though you have to wonder what they see in training and whether that they place too much emphasis on that and not on actual performances, it took forever to get big Harry in the team and nothing can stop him now (literally).

I think he's more than a grafter, his movement and link up play against Leciester was good. He didn't look so sharp yesterday, but I do think there's a player there. Granted he will never skin 3 players but you need to play to his strengths. People wanted us to sign Blackman but it would of been pointless as we wouldn't know how to use him.
