Summer 2016: Transfer rumours and suggestions

[PeterWithe]

The only thing I can think of would be another four year 60 k a week contract for Gabby.

[four fornicholl]

Depends on the context of meltdown? Someone so good that we should never be able to sign them? Or someone who has left us under a dark cloud? Who fits the bill for the latter? Barry, downing, Delph? Intrigued to be honest

It's Steve H***e coming out of retirement. That would be proper meltdown territory.

Frank McAvennie has joined the backroom staff!

Guys,  without wishing to detract from anybody's  right to freedom of expression,  can we all move on from the argument.  Agree to disagree,  whatever  it takes. Just draw a line under it please.

Rhythm is a dancer.

And can we please not use terms like "cancer" when talking about players, no matter how shite they are.

And Chris, it was obviously a joke, so wind your neck in.

So the word Cancer is banned from the site no matter what the definition?

Which bit of "when talking about players" did you miss?

Unless of course we hear of a player with cancer I suppose.

Over the top reaction by all.  Cancer is not solely a medical term, and if the original poster was alluding to his supposed malign influence on the dressing room, it wouldn't be wide of the mark.

Of course it is, 'Cancer' is widely used as a metaphor in all sorts of situations. If anyone finds that offensive I suggest they grow a thicker skin. 

I suggest you accept that people find different things offensive.

I accept it, but that doesn't make it right. However I know you love nothing better than sitting a top your righteous high horse so I will leave it at that.

No, you'll just leave.

Were you an only child?

I'm an only child & I'm offended by whatever it is you're trying to insinuate!

[Clampy]

I'm late to this, the word 'cancer' is offensive to some on here?

Looks like it.

Yep, to some it is. Different opinion and all that.

Cancer-an evil or destructive practice or phenomenom that is hard to contain or eradicate.CASE CLOSED.

I'm a c**t and I get offended whenever that is used as a term of abuse on here!

On the other hand it's not as bad as when I get accused of being a lawyer.

Go on you may as well join in. What's offended you today, your lack of siblings?

[dave.woodhall]

It's not to hard to grasp the idea that if some people find certain words/phrases offensive it's only polite not to use them.

[in exile]

Sorry, I just gotta stop this quote fest

[Clampy]

My next door neighbour who's in her mid to late 50's moved into a hospice the other day to see out her final days. Maybe she wouldn't be offended by the term used, but her family watching her suffer and knowing she's going to die might. That's the point, just because some people are ok with it, other's might not be. Is that so hard to grasp?

[Des Little]

Can we move on now please? There's a game on tomorrow

[PeterWithe]

I can't agree, there are hundreds of things one might die from contracting, do we stop talking about accidents because someone on here might have a loved one who has died in an accident?

We've all got a thicker skin haven't we.

Why are you offended ?

What is being insinuated ?

[PeterWithe]

Sorry, yes let's move on.
