There's been a lot worse threads on here mate with posters being verbally abused left right and centre which have been allowed to run and run. That Ryan Hall thread was mild banter
Okay lick lick brown nose time.... I think the mods do a good job on here, although I believe personally it was a mistake deleting the thread in question we all make mistakes so I can personally cut some slack on this one and have to respect why Elland took the decision, it wasn't Simon who deleted it. I disagree with Simon more times than I agree with him including his stance on Diouf and Warnock but I can honestly say despite some heated debates he has never abused his mod power with me.
I can honestly say I have no problem with Big Ben at all I just wish he would say he was wrong sometime
Nothing wrong with a two-way fight between two consenting adults or weapon ownership, in my eyes. Far less cowardly than spitting and wife-hitting, which involve aggression against innocent people. That's where the distinction lies. Hall and Diouf seem like totally different people, so lay off Simon. Him and the mods do a far better job than any on other club boards on this forum that I've encountered.
I have, I have been incredibly surprised by how well Diouf's done on the pitch, along with most of Warnock's signings, and have admitted so on a few occasions. You spent most of the Diouf thread saying I wouldn't admit I was "wrong" about something that was entirely personal opinion. And it is also my personal opinion that Diouf and Hall's circumstances seem different to me, Hall's being an isolated incident involving a very young man and Diouf having a pretty extensive track record. If Hall were to go on doing similar things then I wouldn't want him playing for Leeds, but for now I'm willing to accept that it could be a (bad) mistake made once that he's learned from, of course I may end up being proved wrong about this, I hope I'm not.
Big Ben He's got previous He beat up a security guy He went out tooled up In your words Should we have players like that who kids will look upto
Big Ben I've heard about it before and his is all I've can find http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryan_Hall_(footballer)#section_1 I've you want a animal playing for us, fair do
All the article says is that he was at the game. I don't know what a professional footballer was doing at a 5-a-side game but it says nothing about him carrying out the assault, and there's nothing anywhere about him being arrested for it.
Do we still want Boyd from Posh in addition to Hall then? Would be funny if we got them both, seeing as Posh want Hall as Boyd's replacement
Big Ben Diouf never got convicted for giving his lass a deserved slap But you hold it against him And you want a player who goes on nights out tooled up
