See my opinion is this isn't a popularity contest. It's about maturity. Some of us get how things work in the real world, especially in business--and make no mistake football and all sports are a business. At any stage and for very trivial reasons, negotiations break down. No matter how ITK a person is, nothing is guaranteed. Tolmie has proven to the people that run this board and others he has solid info. Proven. This isn't a point you can contend. But you do. Angrily. With venom. You make it personal. You aren't mature in how you do it. It's not that we like a more popular person. You are the one making yourself unpopular if anything.lost_n_spaced said:

I think everyone should just take a deep breath, go back to the main index and read what it says under the forum name
"All transfer rumours, gossip, and speculation"
The above says it all in a nutshell and i don't see what the issue is with some posters?

I do enjoy the forum.
I know I'll get a ban for this (although I genuinely do hope that I don't), but can you explain how anything that I have posted is 'moaning' ?
I am - as far as I am aware - defending my right not to believe a posters' supposed ITKness, especially given his abysmal record thus far this summer.
I do hope that a similar post is aimed at those who feel the need to attack those who do not believe TH.
How many fucking times do you need telling? You have repeatedly stated despite being told numerous times that he doesn't, that TH talks nonsense. You try to defend it by saying 'but he's allowed to' as if that is some kind of good thing.
Here it is for you once and for all; Had you been around for longer than 5 minutes you would realise that TH has got a lot of things right in the past and not only that, the stuff you think 'he hears' isn't that he hears it but it's his job to know it.
Let that be your cue to shut the fuck up.
Erudite. Clearly mis-judged, but erudite.
As a pointer, as there seems to be a time/post limit before posters are allowed to have an opinion, how long must TH be wrong for before he is no longer ITK ?

It was supposed to be ironic as attack only seems to be acceptable when it's aimed at dissenters, but god forbid that a dissenter attacks 'the clique'.

Hooooraaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy.Yippppppppppeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Well said Bobby Bill !!
That bolded part in your post is what we in the business like to call a Freudian slip.lost_n_spaced said:taconinja said:I will never understand why people who vigorously try to tear down other people suddenly start screeching about how they have every right to throw out their shrill little opinions as if that is some sort of internet diplomatic immunity.

I'm open to criticism. Go ahead.
But, just as I believe that ITK's or KFA's should be banned, I don't believe that those who dissent against them should be banned.
I believe in everyone's right to post what they want as long as it doesn't descend into name-calling.
Yet some people on the TH side would prefer that dissenters were banned.

I despair. Think it's pretty obvious you're a past user with some kind of grudge. You have to be on a wind up

Because it would seem that the thing that makes me 'less popular than Rooney' is due to the fact that I have chosen to repeatedly post my non-belief of TH's ITKness.
Other people have chosen to repeatedly post their belief of his ITKness, yet an even handed view does not seem to be being taken (especially as the insults seem to be coming from one side only).
Mate, I wasn't the one who brought popularity into it (take a look back).
For the record, I do actually 'get' how business works.
If only people who stated that things were 'done' did (before posting them).

What are you waffling on about now? You're doing a lot of talking but not actually saying anything.

Should I post a youtube link and not actually say anything instead ?
