    There seems to be a bit of a witch hunt for Grizzled Wanderer because of his constant negativity, which is almost (if not totally) identical to Exile, but to me it's probably a bit unfair. I deleted one of his posts 'cos it was a personal attack, but apart from that he's entitled to his opinions, negative or not, and even if he is Exile, so what . . . . maybe a second chance is okay :emoticon-0112-wonde

    Can we (everybody) sort of 'draw a line' under what's happened previously and treat each other with some respect, even if it's through gritted teeth, for the sake of our board, please <hug>

    It's obvious that I do more moderating than anybody on this board (that doesn't need to be pointed out) 'cos most of us want it to remain peaceful and a happy place to visit for discussions about many diversified subjects, and in the main it's brilliant (probably the best, and most friendly, board on NOT606) so let's keep it good, eh :emoticon-0148-yes:

    That's all fine and I can easily do that, consider it done ...

    ... however I would like you to confirm or deny I've just had posts deleted, for calling people peedophiles as claimed.

    That's a lie and I'm entitled to respond.

    What I objected to, on here, was someone using the new coach thread only to attack the club.

    In fact his only real mention of Le Bris was to trot out a casually racist crack about his English.

    There's a rule about continually taking threads off topic which was ignored here, unless the new coach is responsible for the BCB, the rest of the list of club failures and 'flirting with relegation'.

    And that's my last word on this, hopefully the thread can return to the actual subject.

    Yes, Smug, I edited a couple of your posts that some took as an inference of that, again (as always) to maintain our peaceful nature :emoticon-0148-yes:

    People taking inferences, because of their bias, doesn't mean I called anyone a peedophile, I didn't and never have.

    I really take offence at that suggestion, from you or anyone else.

    If I had done I'd expect a ban, so I'll leave that with you.

    You compared Hamish to Gary Glitter.

    I didn't take it as that, Smug, but some did and reported it as so, so I had to deal with it :emoticon-0148-yes:

    That's enough about that, I think, lads.

    I didn't but I do repeat that he's a sad little creep who came from RTG only to imply I'm gay and stated that I bullied Becs which is a total lie. Although you conveniently ignore that, I think I'm entitled to fight fire with fire.

    I didn't start that argument but I'll always respond and if I'm banned I'm banned.

    I'd just said it was my last word then you come on to have another pop ...

    ... seems I'm not the only one who wants the last word.

    I mean you definitely did, Gordon deleted your post.

    I don't care about getting the last word because i'm not involved in this, just think you need to look a little bit closer to home to find the problem on this board.

    So you're ignoring the fact that Hamish came on here specifically to launch a personal attack on me for something he wrongly claims happened five or so years ago ...

    ... perhaps you should give your head a shake and look at your own agenda.

    I didn't want the last word, do you suggest I just allow things like that without responding?

    You just said you never said it but now you are saying you did, which one is it?

    Hamish got a ban, rightly or wrongly, for what they said so it's pretty irrelevant talking about that considering they are the only one out of the pair of yous to receive punishment.

    This is stupid, derailing and just annoying. This is a football board and this specifically is a thread about the head coach, not a thread for comparing posters to *****philes or personal attacks. First proper day of the new head coach and hopefully some news on coaches coming with him today is what should be on this thread.

    Some early footage of Reggie's first tactical briefing.



    I like him.

    @Gordon Armstrong .....Can't we have a "Spatz" thread? Anyone who wants a spat with someone can go on there....they can always reference back to the thread where the alleged grievance took place,without disturbing it. At least it would allow that original thread to proceed as intended. I'm tired of all this calling out stuff....it's genuinely affected my enjoyment of this Board, and I'm sure I can't be alone.

    Nobody would use it 'cos 'spatz' aren't usually pre-planned . . . . they just happen, on whatever thread is being used at the time.
    We should all be civil, as we usually are even when we have differences :angel:

    You forget the time Tees tried to organise a dust up in a MacDonald's car park outside Middlesbrough.

    He isn't the boss. He's just one of us, trying to keep the rest of us in some semblance of order. Good luck with that one, wouldn't like to do that job. Must be like herding....

    It's like a lucky dip, you just hope you're replying to the right quote.

    So have a pop at the other people who came on this specific thread with attacks on the club while totally ignoring the new coach ... all the usual tedious shyte about Beale, BCB, Mowbray, etc. You seem fixated on me and what I say, never anyone else.

    As it happens Hamish who fully deserved a ban, wasn't even on this thread, it was the now locked RTG thing ...

    ... I think I'm as good as anyone regarding posting about the thread topic.

    But just carry on wanting the last word, there's a good lad.
