I've given money to charity and still do and I've done some not very nice things. Are you going to compare me to Jimmy Savile?
I disagree, seriousness of actions is very relevant. And Dr Allam has been giving money away long before he started pissing off city fans. Just to clarify, this isn't me sticking up for him. I think his behaviour in all this has been appaling from the start. Just trying to keep things in perspective.
The typically dismissive and lazy retort of someone who thinks anyone who doesn't agree with them is irrelevant, and who doesn't actually have any argument. Anyone comparing anyone else at all to Saville is a **** of the highest order. Comparing our owners to him is just reprehensible, but sadly shows the single cell standard mentality of a percentage of CTWDers. Keep that type of rhetoric up though, you're doing a great job of undermining the official message from that camp and will push more people away from you. Not that you care, all you care about is you.
You seriously think serial abuse of hundreds of kids, including many sick kids, is "not very nice"? I take it all back, you're gonna be an amazing journalist. At least to other journalists
I agree. Who did that? You can't possibly mean me, because I clearly indicated that you cannot not criticise someone doing unsavoury things because they also do good things for charity. I did not at any stage compare our owner to Jimmy Savile.
Your reply not my "confessions of a wummer" is so so wrong. I posted loads in reference to the name change, and yet you claim a dismissive and lazy retort and i don't have an argument. And yet if you go back and see what i posted in this thread post 90, you have admitted wumming and your the one with no argument. And as a last point why have you replied to me then put all that about Saville, don't try dragging me into that ****.

C'mon Happy, wise up - you know EXACTLY who it refers to. But - just in case you don't - it's ASSEM ALLAM.

I'll assume you're just rubbish at quoting the correct response, because the alternative is you're just obsessed with assuming people should be able to guess which Allam is being referred to. Just for clarity, my ironic comment was about how if some fans voice views not shared by a certain minority, they're dismissed as irrelevant and insulted. Seems its ok for them to do it but not when they take offense at stuff from Dr Allam or Ehab. What's good for the goose etc, in my book, but obviously they don't see it like that, hence the irony.
