    NickyB it is my job to wind up plymborn and I don't take kindly when Trolls try to steal my job. I've trained hard to become as good as I am now and any attempts to undermine my No.1 position will be met with a sharp toe to a rear end.

    plymborn, you must grow a thicker skin. Not too thick however as my job of chief plymborn wind up opperative is hard enough as it is.

    Now you two kiss and make up and lets not have any more.

    sensible...........it's not a case of getting a thicker skin..............it's trying to understand what makes such a lying moron come onto another clubs site with such stupid comments.

    Last time he was made to eat humble pie and apoligize,or be banned from this site..........I would just prefer that he was banned and never came this way again.

    I think it was just an attempt at a wind up that got overblown is all plymborn. Sometimes somebodies sense of humour doesn't come across as maybe intended by them. But, you do have the option to ignore.

    It's not his sense of humour that concerns me..........it's just his senseless lying accusations..........there must be a working kiln somewhere in Stoke that he can stick his head into..........or his he banned from them as well.

    Evening everyone.............I see Southend are 3-1 down at half-time..........hope they don't take it out on us at the week-end if they lose.

    With all that tennis Mrs LaLa............you'll probably stop being crossed-eyed by the weekend.

    Gat-Po..........hows your computer going.......I'm wondering if it's keeping you offline.........if it is then I'm wasting my time talking to you ?

    Drinks all round........have the crisps come in yet..........or has the cellarman scoffed the lot.

    Only plain salted left plymborn and the salt would not be good for somebody of advancing years. I think Gat has been grounded for being naughty.

    Have to admit I am having withdrawal symptoms from the epic final and sem final at the Aussie Open butI have noticed we have got a couple of much needed players in so quite happy about that.

    On a seperate note, I was watching the BBC3 programe from last night on catch-up TV about the lack of openly gay football players since the Justin Fashanu era, made very interesting viewing. I remember the events that unfolded although some of it vaguely. It was very sad that he saw fit to take his own life but it wasn't just about him being gay and I don't think this was portrayed enough, it was more about his openly promiscuous behaviour at the time, the boasts of his "conquests" which made the Sunday papers on a regular basis. and the culmination of US authorities putting out a warrant for his arrest for having sex with a 17yr old boy who apparently had blackmailed him for money - the whole sorry sordid saga. A very talented footballer who played out his sexuality in totally the wrong way. I don't think the fact that he was gay alone mattered.

    Did anyone else see this programe?

    Almost forgot to mention Darren Purse was interviewed briefly, Joey Barton more at length.

    Didn't bother to watch it although I knew it was on. To be honest I'm not interested in people's sexuality or how they feel about it themselves. There will always be people who are anti this or that in life and it is their opinion rightly or wrongly. I cannot see why anyone in this day and age would fear being open about being gay. There would possibly be some ribbing amongst their fellow men but that is also the way of life and people are far too sensitive about stuff nowadays. I hate this PC world we live in and people feeling sorry for themselves by taking it out on others who happen to make a banter like comment about something. There was a story on the radio today about Bus Drivers in Brighton being told not to use terms like "Love" or "Dear" and stuff like that because some old biddy got offended when a Driver used one of the terms to her. People sometimes talk like that and there isn't any offence meant unless you are looking to be offended in the first place. You can tell when somebody is being patronising and when somebody is joking with you or trying to or if they use terms all of the time. I don't see why sports should be any different from any other work place and I doubt most footballers give a **** if a team colleague is gay or not.

    Good morning Gat-Po...........just wondered if you where having PC problems still and that is why we weren't hearing from you.

    Lets hope that these two signings bring us some luck in front of goal...........although MacDonald won't be here long enough to unpack his bag (early March).

    Just been trying to work my way around the BBC's sports pages..........which they have redesigned,...........wish they would leave things alone.

    Years ago when my wife used to work,I used to do the weekly supermarket shop on a Thursday afterwork.

    My wife used to browse around the supermarket racks and take two hours or so..........when I started doing it I got it down to twenty minutes........I remembered exactly where everything was.

    UNTIL Sainsbury's relaid out the whole damn layout of the shop............It totally blew me out the water..........I couldn't find anything for months after that..........I had been so programmed for ages where everything was.......and now I was totally lost...........

    It's strange how something can trigger the memory off to remember things like that..........for me BBC equals Sainsbury's (1980s).

    Was it a cerial plymborn? The beeb are good at making them. I got a shock when I logged on there earlier and found, well nothing at first because of the layout. Much easier previously in my book. Thought they had no money and were cutting back yet can find money to redesign their web pages.

    Bit late in the day LaLaLa, but I saw the documentary and thought it was absolute cr**.

    They got the answer as to why no players have come out as gay in about the first 5 minutes of the programme - because there would be non-stop abuse from opponent's fans and being honest about their sexuality just wasn't worth the grief they'd get. It's taken years to get racism down to it's present level and so the first player to come out will suffer for a long time, but until one does come out, there's nothing for the authorities to stop, a proper Catch 22 situation. It was accepted that few people were prejudiced in normal life, but football fans would latch onto anything to wind up an opposing player whilst inside the ground. The appalling treatment Beckham got about his wife wasn't mentioned but is very relevant.

    They then spent 55 minutes trying to get somebody say that there was prejudice inside the game from managers, administrators or players for which they didn't produce a scrap of evidence, other than because allegedly 1 in 10 men are gay [don't believe that statistic], there ought to be 1 in 10 in the professional game. In fact of course it's very hard for a talented youngster to become a professional at all and the chances are that if any of them are also carrying early doubts about there sexuality, then the chances of them dropping any thought of being a professional are increased. Therefore, the real issue is probably prejudice or perceived prejudice at grass roots level, not the professional game, but that wasn't sensational enough for BBC 3 was it?

    Altogether a very poor programme about a potentially interesting subject.

    Coppello has resigned then, that's fine but over John Terry??? Surely not!

    I'd like to see Harry Redders get the job!

    I think he was right to take umbrage with the FA to be honest. Reason being he is the Manager of the team and at the very least should have been involved in the talks on Terry and the captancy. To omit him from that was to sideline him and tell him that the team set up is not his affair. I'm not saying the decision was wrong to kick Terry out of the job but it was Capello being marginalised. Either he is Manager or he isn't. It now opens the door for the entrance of Harry. I would bet any money that Totenham will not want him to take the job and I wonder what it would do to the rest of their season if he does go. I also think that the FA didn't want Capello to be there and Capello didn't want to be there so probably it will be a sigh of relief all around for both parties.
