| Isn’t it odd 10:54 - Aug 26 with 5638 views | NotLoyal | That now probably three or four PS members who no longer post on here, how less fractious and contentious the site has become. Personally I wasn’t going to post on either site again due to the racist slurs by previous posters disguised as liberal viewpoints, accusations without foundation and basic cowardice when confronted. However, and I’ve no doubt there will be issues in the future but at least now the support guy has presented an environment where dialogue can be the winner. As I said it’s clearly obvious now who the arseholes were on here and now they’ve gone it’s even more obvious that particular racist element were the issue. Good riddance, but I’m still looking forward to the day crowds can return to football. I’ll take a camera 😂😉 |  |

You have the propensity to be tied up in knots right now, and you have no recollection do you. You never do proffer added value though, do you. Nor cogent hypotheses, not by a country mile. Nada, nothing, zilch. ("Abuse", wtf ? so current, so apt) |
I did answer your question. I said I didn't know. It may not be a very good answer but it's still an answer. |  | |  |

Don’t need to block him, just ask him a simple question about a view he claims to have. He self implodes. |  |

| Isn’t it odd on 18:51 - Aug 28 by Neath_Jack | Hang on now Tonto, who are you referring to about some posters returning? Forum without you? And talking about this forum as if it was yours? You've posted on the other forum, so how does that fit in? |
1. The posters who left to the new site and mocked the posters who continued to post here. Were you one of them? 2. What I said was; "The forum they hoped would be an improvement without US" You must have seen all of those posts on that site mocking posters who remained here. "It's just Kerouac and his fellow racists" was one thing I read (may not be an exact quote). 3. I have never claimed this forum as mine. That is something that I would never do. Those who pay any attention to what I post would understand this and not need it explaining. This forum is superior because of all the posters who stayed and made good threads and conducted themselves in the right manner, of which there are many (there was always a diverse range of opinion on here throughout this period, it is not a 'right-wing' forum). I was called out individually by name by some posters on there though wasn't I? Called out by posters who now return with their tail between their legs having failed to reward all of Phil's effort with some decent content...and how do they conduct themselves when they come back? By mocking our posters, the posters responsible for making this forum a good place to be, the posters who the returnees presumably want to interact with, or why come back? 4. I posted on the other forum a couple of times during the first few days when I thought the whole forum would move...and what greeted me when I logged on there? Threads and posts that mocked good posters on this site and me (and others) individually. Posts that openly wished that I and others didn't join the new site...what amazes me is that the site owner and moderators allowed this behaviour to continue unchecked A little life tip, value your customers/users. Do you know what I thought? 'f*ck this, I'm going back to the other site, I don't care if it's me and about a dozen posters, at least they are people worth having a discussion with...who in their right mind would want to stay here and spend time on such arrogant tossers' I'm sure other posters who may have made the move thought similar. ...and here they come back one by one, with their bile. What the whole episode has shown is that some people provide content and value. While others just snipe away nastily, of course those who snipe simultaneously claim to be; - more intelligent - in possession of better morals - beleaguered by those they see as inferior e.g. - 'Our board has gone to the dogs, if (insert list of posters they disapprove of here) would just go away everything would be hunky dory'. Well it wasn't hunky dory, a board without the posters who were vilified on here was shite, whereas this board (which possesses a large proportion of those vilified posters) is far superior. Clear enough for you? |  |

| Isn’t it odd on 23:25 - Aug 28 with 622 views | Glossolalia | I'm here for that reason - to perhaps learn a thing or two from worthwhile, informed individuals. Not to swat away the usual, clunky ignoramuses. I noticed a change in dynamics and general mood, hence my return. This forum serves as a platform for reasoned debate in the main. Long may it continue. To the above poster, I gave Hump an ultimatum in the hope of an actual reply. He failed miserably. Lesson learned - some people are trolls. It's not important, nor is talking sense to the senseless. Nos da i pawb. |  | |  |

I have also given him a challenge. He has claimed to be fearful of entereing a debate incase he is asked further questions. I have said 10 questions each to be answered in full. Of course he will decline. Sadly proving himself to be a troll which is a shame as I think there is a poster in there somewhere if he dropped the teenager argument technique instead of debating grown up topics like an adult. |  |

That's a lie. I have not claimed to be fearful of entering a debate incase I'm asked more questions. I pointed out your idea is throwing out so many questions and if someone doesn't answer them all then you claim victory. I can't be arsed any more due to your lies. |  | |  |

I have asked you 1 question. Never once claimed victory. You are stating fear about something that hasn’t happened and something that I don’t and wouldn’t ever do. Your fear is unfounded. I have asked if you can demonstrate your claim that black people are being killed disproportionately by cops. A pretty fair question considering that is the main driving force behind your view. A discussion and a debate is comprised of questions and answers. You are more than welcome to ask me some to and will happily answer in full. So back to mine - can you explain what you are basing it off that black people are being killed disproportionately by cops. Thanks. [Post edited 28 Aug 2020 23:55]

Such a typically meek, girly (ooops) response from someone who chooses a forum persona of Humpty Dumbty - the more I look at it the more your resemble the dumpy ECB. Flakey, weak willed bureaucrat. |  |

| Isn’t it odd on 13:01 - Aug 27 by Gwyn737 | It’ll be interesting to see if this happens when the season starts. At the mo, I tend to keep to this board for politics and the other board for football. IMHO that’s where the strengths of each board lies at time of writing. This may well change when football comes back. |
For me, this forum errs on positivity toward the team and Club. The other site is hugely negative about the Club, the team and manager. Would much prefer to converse with fellow supporters on matchdays, than the usual moaners. It's a bit like the North East ebullience and positivity vs the whingers elsewhere. The whingers are sheeple, with a vicious herd mentality. |  | |  |

Yep. I have always though he was decent and have told him so. But unfortunately he has a tendency to down tools the second he feels his views will be pressed for any kind of detail. His game is to poke at others views while being as vague as he can on his own. If pressed he will attack you and create an excuse not to expand further. That’s been shown again here. Such a shame. |  |

I was in the North East for the game where Sousa put Ash in front of the back four (versus Watford??) it was the other way round then, I can tell you. They were frothing at the mouth. |  |

Fair play, but my point was wider. The NorthEast-type posters on here will encourage more to follow suit, in stark contrast to the other forum where the life is drained out of you in matchday threads. Feeble sheeple that lack the courage to counter the overt negativity. |  | |  |

Negativity you say? My opinion is that you give praise or criticism when or where it is due. That is down to personal opinion. |  |
