Am I one of those Internet bullies now that seem to be all the rage these days? Remind me never to mildly disagree with a youngster again or I'll lose my sponsorship from Britannia Coach Holidays, Seven Seas Cod Liver Oil and Lanacane creams. Am I still welcome in the clique?

You can't 'accidentally' fall on a keyboard and post several paragraphs, or even a sentence.

I am sure you can Louzie0. You should  see some of the work related e mails I receive from people.

As part of my Duke of Edinburgh I worked with disadvantaged youths and it was always the case that the bullies never admitted or even knew that they were bullies.  It was only by always challenging their unacceptable behavior that we made any progress at all.

Were you bullied at school?

Dont be ridiculous. There are no bullies on this forum. A few with strong opinions, but absolutely no bullies whatsoever. Move to another forum if you are unhappy there are enough Villa related forums to keep everybody happy.

Seems highly unlikely.

"All things are subject to interpretation whichever interpretation prevails at a given time is a function of power and not truth."

Would seem like a reasonable guide to understanding the reality.

Brilliant!

I can hear Hancock's and Sid's voice as I read it.

Classic Hancock bathos.

Its not even right either - "Gravity exists", "Queen Elizabeth I is dead" are statements of true fact, they are not open to interpretation dependent on a function of power.

Do us a favour Titus, if you honestly believe that somebody daring to take the opposite viewpoint to you on a football forum and having the gall to agree with somebody who calls you a 'wind up merchant' is a form of bullying, please report me to a moderator and I will happily take my punishment.

It might be interesting  if say someone walked in to the club shop and bought a small value item like a badge with a credit card (no charge) and then took the receipt to the ticket office and bought a ticket (charge) and then refused to pay the charge until they could explain the difference between the purchases and why the charge was levied on the ticket.

I never understand why ticket sellers do this - if the ticket costs £25 and you want to see the event you pay £25 with good grace.  If There's suddenly a £2 fee for nothing attached because of your payment method all that happens is that some people get irritated by that. Why annoy (some of) your punters?
My favourite was the Bristol Academy. I happened to be in town so visited in person. At the box office I was told my 8 tickets would incur a £1.50 fee for EACH ticket paying by debit card as a 'transaction' fee.  I said fine to the girl but then insisted she swipe the card 8 times - might as well get the 'service' I'm paying for! Much to my surprise she refused to do it saying it was one transaction. When I pointed out that that was only one £1.50 fee then she couldn't do that. Her manager waived the fee completely.  I doubt they made that mistake again.
