Name, names.

If its directed at me (amongst others), you will see from this thread that I have hardly posted in the last few months, apart from on one subject that I couldn't let pass.

In one I was referred to as "your kind", amongst other things - it wasn't elaborated on, although the poster was given ample opportunity.

"My kind" were also called Bindippers and told to get back to our holes on the day that Man U won their most recent trophy.

Do you not stop to ask why I/we should carry on when this is becoming common?

I joined this forum to talk about golf, and throughout 6 years I have made loads of true friends, and lots of buddies. I didnt join it to make enemies, but that list is getting longer, and mainly down to this thread.

You accuse us Liverpool fans about hiding when it suits - we've only won one trophy in 5 years, so hardly riding the glory years, and yet 4-5 of us have been more than regular posters over them years. You may also find that some United fans have found their way to this thread a lot more than the previous 3 years........

I may carry on with it, as genuinely still read it, as enjoy different perspectives on matches, but seriously trying hard not to post, due to the above reasons. I wish I had Blue in Munich's willpower, as he is someone who is sorely missed on here, and i would gladly debate footy with him till the cows come home, given the chance. I met Papas for the first time last week, and was made up to meet him, as he is also a top bloke on here.

Maybe, if you werent trying to bait LiverpoolPhil as much, due to your unrequited love affair, your post would get more credence.

So, thats my excuse.

StuC - your right on him though, he just bails when it doesnt suit.;)

Having met a few Of the scousers on here recently I have to admit I'm struggling to dislike Liverpool quite as much as I want to!

a few of the Chelsea bunch were alright too!

even met an arsenal fan who spoke sense too.

This forum, or this thread at least seems to cause more grief than its worth on occasion. But aside from the few who only post to get a reaction. when in the pub, all were sensible enough to chat too. Even the drunk ones who had the same conversation 3 times......

Well quite surprised by your response to be honest Pete but if I had mentioned names that might have helped,i didn't mean you at all and you probably knew that as you said you don't post much.

Stu doesn't either, but I bail when it doesn't suit?

As for any unrequited love for Phil I think your way off the mark there.

I think I will give the football thread a miss from now on also as I certainly don't want to fall out with anyone over a game that has turned soft and saturated with too much money.

This thread was purely banter for me at the start amongst friends and obviously that has changed over time it was nothing personal.

Just to clarify a little, Tony.

Stu is the bailer, not you.:)

Your right about the game becoming soft and saturated........as fans off the pitch get more and more wound up by it, including ourselves.:thup: On the Phil thing it just looks from the outside that you post to try to get a reaction out of him, and obviously use LFC as a vehicle for that, some of which is fair, and IMHO some not, but it does bring all the other scouse reds into it then. If you know what I mean. I havent taken it personal, and I know your fair most of the time.....but since Man U have done well and us not you've been like a wailing banshee:rofl:. No harm done, dont be a stranger.:thup:

News is being reported there was a bust up at training which led to Sanchez being dropped to the bench and not as reported, the tactics, which Wenger didn't actually use!

Even Ian Wright is saying if he was Sanchez he'd be offski also the way he's being treated.

I don't think Wenger has ever displayed himself as being a people person and it would seem he's happy to punish someone at the expense of playing his best player and team in a must win or get something out of it match!

A question to the Arsenal fans, and be honest. Would you rather have had George Graham remain, playing "that style" of football, and never experienced Arsene Wenger ?

Why on earth would they prefer that? Wenger did some brilliant stuff for Arsenal mid-to-late 90's and early to mid 2000's, transformed them as a football club and made them into one of the biggest clubs in Europe. That would not have happened under Graham. Wenger's stale and not really achieved anything of note in the last 7-8 years, but that shouldn't mean the great work he did should be forgotten.
