Interesting thread. I didn't notice all of this love and respect for Flyer when he was posting, except from DT and Beth. What he said on football was often correct but he said it in such an "I'm right you're wrong" way that it never encouraged dialogue, and he would never retract/ change his mind. I enjoyed challenging his 'statements of fact' type posts, especially the OT ones. He never responded of course because he had me on ignore. Recently he claimed Fernandes had a history of lying on social media. I and others asked him to back it up, no response. And his 'the CIA did it' OT conspiracy theories were hilarious.
Interesting character, but sometimes an overbearing and repetitive presence on here. Takes all sorts, but I don't particularly miss him, which means I'm not one of the 'decent' ones I suppose. And it may just be that his absence will be good for his inner harmony.
To be honest, I agree.
