Thanks for your objective response, unlike some posters.


You're getting quite a thing for being unable to post anything which doesn't contain at least one veiled dig at other people.

There's no need for it.


Merely an observation.

If you take it as a veiled dig, so be it and I apologise.  With some of the abuse and questioning of peoples understanding and knowledge of the game written on here, I think that's a bit rich.

I'll go back and sit in the corner and put my hand up if I have a question.

Maybe they will be on speaking terms soon.


You don't post on Transfer Rumours do you DC5?

"MON's tenure at the helm of AV drawing to a close hence the truly glacial pace of transfer activity. Learner has simply lost faith and its decision time on all fronts. Expect action on several fronts once Friday's televised friendly is out of the way"

I'm not saying anything at all about your right to have your say.

I'm referring to why you need to throw in this kind of thing:

e people go on, I find it extremely annoying when I think it is not warranted to the extreme comments but forward by some posters.  I suppose, however, in todays society some people think they have to shout the loudest to get listened to.

We do have a lot more admin staff it seems.  However, most of those won't be on any more than £20K a year, which doesn't go anywhere near to explaining teh difference.

As I said, a bit rich considering what is said on here by some.

We all think at times that we know better than another.  It's how you put it over and show respect, or not, as the case may be.

Lyrics from Metallica are apt at times.

NO MORE!!!
The crap rolls out your mouth again
Haven't changed, your brain is still gelatin
Little whispers circle around your head
Why don't you worry about yourself INSTEAD!!!

Who are you? where ya been? where ya from?
Gossip burning on the tip of your tongue
You lie so much you believe yourself
Judge not l'est ye be judged yourself

Holier than thou
You are
Holier than thou
You are

You know not

Before you judge me take a look at you
Can't you find something better to do
Point the finger, slow to understand
Arrogance and ignorance go hand in hand

It's not you are it's who you know
Others lives are the basis of your own
Burn your bridges and build them back with wealth
Judge not l'est ye be judged yourself

Holier than thou
You are
Holier than thou
You are

You know not

Yeah who the hell are you?
Hey yo

Holier than thou
You are
Holier than thou
You are

You know not

NOT!!!

More gossip round the dinner table?


Yes. It came from a very good sauce.


Was the conversation peppered with useful insights?

I don't think Lerner would be ruthless enough to get rid of MO'N.  Young Doug he might be in some respects, but not in respect of that particular trait.

*SNIP*

Somebody responded last night saying that he believed the internet article I referred to was made up.  Obviously some guys know the source from experience.



I was merely pointing out that the author of the article in question had put absolutely no quotes, references or links into his article to tell us where his information had come from, I could find nothing from any other source to corroborate what he posted either.

It may be correct, he may have sources, but yes, you are correct in thinking that some of us know the gentleman in question, and our vast experience tells us that 99% of what he writes is 100% bollocks.

Randy has been known to be very ruthless at wielding the axe at Cleveland browns- I'm sure he will not find it any problem doing so here if he wishes!
