It’s a frigging forum. People have different opinions. There is no such thing as an “average user”!

Posting multiple repetitive videos with no discussion adds zero balance. It’s spam.

When will Alcy realise that it’s not unusual to find that at least 6 football supporters who grew up in the steel town of Scunthorpe in the 60s, 70s and 80s are also supporters of the Labour party.

Neither is it unusual to find more than 6 Iron supporters and forum members from the same background who don’t support the Labour party.

The forum is free for all to comment. Just because you don’t agree with some of the posts, is not a reason to spam with the purpose of closing it down.

Hopefully the mods will deal with you if you do it again and quickly boot you off!

The cancel culture I spoke of earlier.
You cannot help yourself can you boy?

I say again: If you have the right to post your lefty liberal rubbish, then I must have the right to post whatever I want to, whenever I want to do so.

Who are you to say I should be cancelled, removed, booted off, because you dont like my posts?
If you don’t like, ignore.
And grow up.

Hopefully, if alcy actually wants to put forward his views he can do so in a more sensible manner. Have specific threads where each corresponding video goes in, instead of endless spam of separate threads. :-) There would be no issue there for me.

I don’t care if you have issues or not.
Your input to this thread so far shows you up stiff.

And the responses of others do not lead me to believe that ANYTHING will change.
No-one has learned anything. So be it.

In that case, I hope they will also close down all the myriad far left posts from the usual suspects?

Be advised that if it once again spirals into look-at-me leftyism, with no balance, it will be of little use to the average user.

Two things to note, then, please.

It must be even handed. The average reader/user does NOT want to read thread after thread slagging off the right and defending, or extolling the virtues of the left. No matter your political leanings.

Adding balance does NOT mean that, if there are already six left-leaning threads in existence, a user must also add a left-leaning thread for every right-leaning thread/post. He will need to add SIX right leaning threads/posts.
And is ready and willing to do so.

I trust this meets with your approval, Matt, and that ANY moderators will uphold the rights of both left AND right to post whatever, and whenever, they like, so long as legal?

This will lead to many others being willing to use the forum, and less of the cancel culture.

Thankyou.

[alcazar]

Yeah, nah.
As the Aussies say.
We’re down.
Start preparing now.
Spend no more, get rid of all dross, and prepare for a good FEW seasons non league.
I dont think I’ll live to see us back.

I have to admit I wanted Wharton gone.
He seemed to lack ambition, was far too quick to sell on promising players without giving the club chance to profit not just financially, and the cronyism, whereby direcors paid in a low nominal sum, then got free football and free food, drink etc for life, drove me to distraction, since I was struggling to fund my attendance.

So yes, I wanted him gone…for all the RIGHT reasons.

But I never foresaw this piece of excrement making the utter male danglies of the club that he has.

I was, however, one of the first to see through his sham, his untruths and his empty promises.

So what am I apologising for?
Where was I wholly wrong?

1-3 Newport.

At least most of our near rivals have difficult games too, so we ought not to drop any further back.

Going back to the OP, the saddest thing for me is Neville making a fuss on air because a “big club” is in the mire.
Where was he when Bury expired? Silent.
To mention them now to make his point is poor show.

If the non football forum ever came back Alcy, would you intend to just post 5-6 videos on threads per day or actually discuss views you don’t agree with, like you used to?

Rather depends on the format and content.
If it were as it was, I’d be inclined to spam it to hell.
If it, and some of the members, showed reform, an understanding that others’ views just MIGHT be as valid as theirs, and some restraint, I’d be happy to go along.
But while it was as it was, no thanks.
The final straw for me was when several on here started trying to get other members cancelled.

‘It had the desired effect, eventually, esp. when BigJ etc joined in.’

So you’re pleased with yourself for encouraging that to happen and the board getting out of hand? There’s occasional provocation and bad language (I’m guilty of that I admit) and there’s spamming to the extent where you and a few others destroy it.

I just got fed up with the constant left/liberal bias, the obsession with woke ideas, racism, mysoginy etc, and the way certain users ganged up on anyone who posted anything that didn’t suit the woke/left agenda, sometimes to the extent of vile insults. Which a certain moderator allowed to stand.

If you look back, to well before Sun-Return, I did try to start a few threads of local/social interest, but they were treated to mockery, the usual insults and exhortations to stick to wokeism, to the seemingly agreed agenda.

It seemed to me that NF was already out of control, the content being dictated by a few, leading the many to leave it alone.

I am a member of quite a few forums, where we discuss all sorts of stuff, usually amicably, where others’ views are respected, whether agreed with or not, and where others’ rights to hold those views is paramount.
It’s called freedom of speech.

The NF on here had none of that. I’m glad it’s gone.
Sorry.

He’s already got it from me: I’m dedicated to staying away until the odious fat man has gone.

I’m all for fairness, but was roundly mocked for adding balancing posts to NF.
By those who seemingly had no idea what “balance” meant. And still have none.
So I’m not about to waste my time on something that will end up as a lot of talk and zero action, laudable though it may be.

I clearly remember sitting next to a good friend, sadly no longer with us, discussing the idea of the “Premiership” during an Iron match the season it was floated as an idea.
I said at the time it would harm football at every level in England, and I stand by that. It has done so.

Anyone remember the Don Welbourne/Graham Rathbone incident?

Didn’t that result in a ban that was unusual at the time?

The FA had decided, in their wisdom, to clamp down on violent play. They decided to make an example of two fourth division players and give them what was then a record suspension.
No first division players were given anything like that kind of discipline even though they were the main culprits.
The incident was nothing more than handbags.

I seem to remember George Best being sent off fairly soon after and receiving only a three MATCH ban.
When questioned the FA said something along the lines of “People turn up to see Man Utd and expect Best to be playing. We shouldn’t disappoint them”, or some other such nonsense.

How’s that for a conspiracy theory, Furrite?

Suarez received a 10-match ban for biting Ivanovic when he was at Liverpool. But don’t let facts spoil your paranoid “theories”.

Try reading my post before going off on a half-witted rant.
My second sentence actually ASKED how long he got.

[alcazar]

First round.
Won the replay 4-1, or 4-0.
Second round was at Stockport, Kev Keegan gave us tickets to get in.
That one ended as a draw, 0-0?

Why stop at one video Alcy, when 20 per day is the norm. “One of mine?”. None of them were yours!!

Just as the James O’Brien one isn’t Gurnys, but posted by him.
BTW: any of you ever stopped to wonder WHY I suddenly started flooding the NF side with videos I knew would get up your noses, yet never defended them?

It had the desired effect, eventually, esp. when BigJ etc joined in.

If you don’t believe me, ask Matt what I said to him a year or more back.

I don’t remember a bus without brakes, so must have been one of the others.
Bus station eas heaving with Macc supporters, then our driver made one of the lads on our bus get off as his ticket eas wrong colour.
He disappeared under about fifty of them while the coppers stood and watched 😳
Weird thing, though. In all that lot, someone nicked a banner from the Macc supporters saying, “Sock it to me Macc”.
It was on our bus.

[alcazar]

Waste of time.
Prem lawyers and s few backhanders will blow this away like so much chaff.

Memories of Macclesfield, 1969(???).
Loads of us, so we marched alongside the pitch to take their end.
Never seen so many weapons in a footy ground😳
Pickaxe handles, hammers, steel bars, carving knives, even a lump of concrete on a steel wire.
Then after the game they ambushed us and chased us all the way to the bus station.
