It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

It's an open forum which means people are able to post their opinions and if someone else disagrees then these opinions are open for discussion. We don't have to agree, that's fine. We can debate a point or we can ignore each other. But what seems to happen on this particular thread is people get very defensive, upset even, which kind of defeats the purpose of a forum does it not?

Absolutely mate - if there’s a point to debate, that’s where the forum is at its best. There’s some great people on here with interesting takes and perspectives, which is what makes coming this place so enjoyable when it’s at its best.

But you have to admit, there isn’t a lot to debate in someone coming on here to tell everyone else they’re not interested.

That’s more like the end of a conversation than the start.

It’s like the scousers, who are forever telling everyone how little they care about City. There’s post after post of it on RAWK, with the same people getting themselves all worked up over how little they care.

If you’re not interested - don’t post anything.

So, if sterling goes as well, anyone think we will go into the market for a winger type player?

we would have no choice we would only have mahrez as a right winger we could use foden more on that side but we would no natural right footed right wing option in the squad

That's true but it depends on the context. If I was saying this is the first time I've posted on this thread and I want to state that I am not interested then yeah, that would be a bit odd. The context goes back to last year though when I gave my opinion and was blocked from posting. I'm still interested in transfer talk from forum members which is offered as opinion. What I'm not interested in is people claiming to be ITK but not willing to debate the "know" with me.

With respect mate, I doubt anyone remembers what you said on here last year - so if you do want a debate, it’s probably best to set your position out again.

The thing is - this particular thread was set up by one of our more reliable ITKs, who has proven to a lot of us either in public or on PMs over the years to get very good info on the club.

If you don’t like ITKs on principle, then an ITK update thread probably isn’t the best section of the forum to spend your time on.

It’s up to you, of course - it’s a public forum, like you say. But I don’t come on here to debate politics, consequently I’ve never posted on the politics sub-forum.
 
The Bluemoon Forum has all the official deal threads. If you don't like hearing about Bernie's new kitchen counters, 30 post arguments on whether Sterling qualifies as a non-EU player for Real Madrid and multiple pages of people saying Kalvin Phillips can barely kick a football then this isn't the thread or forum for you.

You haven’t really got the hang of this have you? Probably best to wait for players to be photographed with Txiki in the famous grey jumper. Defo has its advantages.

I did that last year and got blocked so probably not.

I was blocked from this thread this time last year for giving my opinion on the ITK's but I was also proven right. Until it's official I'm not interested.

Thanks for sharing that groundbreaking information. I could guess you were maybe quite possibly behaving like a twat?

Start your own “I don’t want to know until it’s official thread”.

Acronym: Idwtkuio -:)

Can’t see it catching on myself.

I'm not here for fake entertainment. If you are that's great for you. But all I ask is for you not to get too defensive when I question it.

Depends on your definition of being a twat. I questioned a few things, suggested some other reasons for this thread existing other than what it says. That's all.

I would have said yes but if I base my answer on our recent purchases then it seems pep don’t want that type of winger. We also need to give Jack a run in the team to see if he can reach the level we want. Bank the money for Bellingham.

If Bernie goes I would expect a signing.

Enjoy the snippets or stay away. It is harmless fun and keeps the forum interesting imo. Why do you need to question a blue posting in good faith? I don’t get why posters get so annoyed.

A few posters get very good info. Sometimes it goes tits up (messi) and sometimes it is spot on (Haaland). Plenty of other threads to express your feeling. May I suggest the Liverpool thread. If you like getting banned that’s the place to be :-)

I've never been annoyed.
That's my point, it's either harmless fun or it's genuine info. Just don't pretend it's the other if it's not the latter is all I asked.
