Traf Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) 20 minutes ago, Sluffy said: As for the threats of abuse to Chris, a bloke certainly in his seventies, if not his eighties, is utterly disgraceful whatever provocation he may have made and to find out the worst he's said is that he finds a few on here either thick or a bit of a dickhead is a shocking overreaction from some. Maybe some of the stuff was said towards him in jest but some jokes just aren't funny - and can lead to those who said it being referred to the police. https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2019/jun/13/police-investigate-jo-brands-battery-acid-remark I'm no spoilsport or anything but several grown men issuing threats of violence to a pensioner, just because he called them thick or a dickhead is a massive and disgraceful overreaction in my eyes. Maybe he should have kept his thoughts to himself but macho threats of violence towards him for saying so is unbelievable and totally unwarranted. Are we not better than this by now? I treat Wanderersways as a bit like being in a pub where everyone's in a big chat. if Chris was in a pub and constantly stated out loud that he thought all the other people in the pub were dickheads, he'd certainly end up getting a slap. He might think he's better, more intelligent, more correct etc etc than the rest of us, but (a) he's wrong and (b) it's not something you say out loud.

Sluffy Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Just now, Leyther_Matt said: I find it utterly bizarre that there’s any suggestion that the hotel/BWFC would have over any sort of official responsibility to the trust. To me at least, it seems pretty clear that they’re only being used as a bit of a think tank, and even then probably overestimating their own importance in that particular role. Maybe you are absolutely right, nobody knows seems to know but the ST did put a tweet out (which I copied and posted on page three of this thread) that STATES that the Fanzine is being OPERATED as a PARTNERSHIP between the ST and Football Ventures I read that as them having something of an official / contractual arrangement (whether written or implied) - and hence my question as to whether the ST was able to still do that considering it's apparent breaches to its own constitution. I guess we'll find out soon enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Personally, I'm just sick of these two boring old fuckers turning every thread into a deep forensic analysis of the club / the owners/ the Trust / the BN etc etc. Sluffy has a forum of his own, yet spends all his time here. Seriously, why don't him & Chris have their superior discussions over at Nuts? I'm sure there are just as many people on Nuts who'd be interested in what they've got to say as there are on here.

Moderators Casino Posted October 4, 2019 Moderators Share Posted October 4, 2019 I'd have thought that getting involved in the fanzone ought to be bwfc sa rather than bwfc st The fact the st are trying to muscle in on fanzone while the sa are having meetings attended by 3 men and their dogs says plenty about the usefulness of both of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Anyway, I've said my piece, so I'm going to logout now. I come on here for light relief/entertainment but I find the joy being sucked out of the site more and more by these two. You just know that as soon as one of them posts on a thread that (a) the other will soon follow and it develops into a Chuckle Brothers to me to you affair and (b) it all turns to dull shit. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Chris & Sluffy weren't the same person. Goodnight Vienna xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree that anyone should be assaulted if they didn't. Would a woman get a slap if they said the same? Would say a fifteen year old get one too if they got goby? So why would anyone want to slap say an eighty year old bloke then? I was brought up that "words will never hurt me" although sticks and stones might. We are getting on for being almost a quarter of the way through the twenty-first century for Christ sake, I thought we'd left this Neanderthal behaviour way back in the nineteen seventies and eighties? I get called worse than being a dickhead every single day on the forums and I just laugh it off. I don't care if people think I'm nuttier that a fruitcake, I don't give a toss what anyone says about me on a forum - why should I? I certainly don't go around calling people out because they call me a cunt or I'm mentally ill or something, so why would anyone want to react with violence (even in this mythical pub we are in) to being called something as tame and as wussy as "you're a bit thick and a bit of a Richard Head" (fuck me he never even said dickhead did he!). For Christ sake sit down, turn a deaf ear to him and let's have a pint all round on me, eh? And Custard please stop saying such things in future, it's upsetting the locals, come and have a drink with me too and let's try to make friends with all. Does that seem reasonable with everyone?

Traf Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Look, anyone who knows me knows that I'd never actually resort to violence to solve a disagreement, because as soon as you do that, you've lost. I was possibly a little too forceful in trying to get a point across to CC that he should more carefully how he describes other people who are "within earshot in the same room", as there are indeed folk out there quite willing to give someone else a slap for calling them dickheads for merely having an opinion. My point, however, remains about both Sluffy & CC ruining pretty much every thread they post on with their long winded pompous sniping and I think this place would improve if they both took their discussions over to Sluffy's own site. They don't welcome anyone else joining in anyway, so they'd be better suited over on Nuts, where you can count the active posters on one hand.

I guess we'll find out soon enough Most fans couldn't give a monkeys about the contractual arrangements between FV and ST. It's a boring subject. They're trying to improve the club, regardless of what anyone thinks the motive is, and that's a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dread the posts now. I don’t want to have to read 400 lines of your drivel when trying so some light hearted lunch time entertainment. I have to concur with a few points on this. Traf wouldn’t resort to slapping anyone on here. I am surprised CC and Sluffy find it bizzare they are getting people’s backs up by suggesting most on here are idiots? From what I can see I don’t think these are pals you are aiming this at so why would anyone take it well when it’s condescending. Name calling is completely different I’ve been called things a lot worse than you describe on here and yes you can laugh it off. The other thing I fail to understand is what is your angle or point. Do you love Ken? What are you trying to uncover, do you find your conversations with Chris interesting? Are you remotely bothered you seem to be ruining the conversations for the majority going off the responses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must be absolutely awful. lets face it, accountancy, although a necessity, is pretty chuffing boring. I'm an Internet connectivity specialist, which is also extremely dull, however I don't go on message boards belittling those who have less knowledge on the subject than me, or try to construct arguments that allow me to show off the knowledge I have gained in my work. I also know a bit about football academy legislation, and via my Mrs, know bits about how football clubs organise travel. Both extremely tedious topics. I can also hold a pool ball in my belly button whilst standing up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
