Is the point of this forum

If it is to talk about the club 90% of posters are failing

If it is to bullly and slag of other posters than 90% are succeeding.

I hardly posted for fear of these comments and am very close to forgetting about the forum completly

SORRY IF THE TRUTH HURTS

[quote user="lucky green trainers"]easton - i am right in recalling a similar post from you a good while back???agreed this forum is like a playground at times - but as in a playground, if some kid kicks you, kick ''em back twice as hard and where it hurts!!!failing that - if you don''t like argy bargy cherry pick the posts you want to and avoid the contentious ones - never be afraid to express yourself - and never let the barstools get you down!!!er - who said that???[/quote]

 

man you have a good memory

[/quote]

yeah well - i probably gave you the same advice before...in my experience people who are worried to express themselves (especially for fear of being bullied) have poor self-esteem...so get into feeling good about yourself and accepting you have as much right as the next person to speak your mind...remember if you let somebody else speak on your behalf, then you give your right of self-expression to them...but imo self-expression is a right worth fighting and even dying for - cos if you feel afraid to speak, it means some other merchant banker is doing it on your behalf - maybe in an intimidatory way to make their voice heard over yours...even though your opinion might be more valid and appropriate to the situaaashun than theirs...[/quote]Errm..this is a football forum for crying out loud. Write what you want and stop moaning. Simple as?

This used to be such a happy forum. When I used to participate previously in another guise posters such as DumbleDelia, Gorleston Jim, First Wizard, Zippers Left Foot and GazzaTheGreat and Knowwhatimean used to spark such great debate. They were happy days with talk of winning the Championship, the struggles of the Premiership and oh so nearly surviving.

Now we are knee deep in pointless, duplicated posts of meaningless rumours and un-neccessary backbiting. Unfortunately as a result of the lack of moderation on the forums this seems to have become a unpoliced playground for those who like to bully and torment from behind the protection of their computer screens. The recent comparison of Dear Delia to Robert Mugabe another example of the mindless squit that gets through nowadays.

I am looking forward to the coming season no matter what happens behind the scenes and am looking forward to participating in more debates on the hot topics surrounding our great club and hope to do so in a forum which encourages free speech and opinion, not stifle it.

PS Bob.  How on earth can you include 1st Wiz when he''s been one of the most cantankerous controversialist attention-seeking windup merchants on this forum ever since I''ve been around?

Of course it was all lovely when we were winning the Championship, what was there to complain about?  It''s all gone horribly wrong since then, and if you want my opinion division between the fans suits our board of directors just fine - "Divide and Rule" and all that.  Not any more . . .

That he has Mr Profit, that he has. I have always had a little soft spot for old Wiz though. I have often found his posts and his little tirades humourous and I dont think he resorts to needless insults. Yes he can be an attention seeker but I am sure it is all part of the character he has adopted.

I completely agree with your divide and rule comment and yes you are right the board probably are very content with that. As you say, not any more.... A poor start to this season will have arguably 80% of fans putting hard questions to the board and Delia will find her position untenable. I hope it doesnt come to that as after what she has done for the club in the past she doesnt deserve to go like that. It will get very interesting my friend.

Ah the mighty Sheringham FC! not done to bad lately although they arent proper Sheringham like they used to be. I believe only 1 player is from the town itself. Very sad.

Its all that salt from the sea and the mighty winds which give us our beards and our well weathered looks. The ladies love it.

Tis not true Bob. As an adopoted Shannock for the last 3 yrs (i have now left to Ridgeons pastures new) i can confirm that a few of the lads are from Sheringham itself and the surrounding parts.

In fact near the end of the season a few of the reserves boys who are all local stepped up to the plate and did extremely well. Im guessing some of them may feature this yr too!

Go on over and have a look old boy! Who knows.....you may enjoy it!
