No. A comment was made, I disagreed and gave reasons why. The issue is too many on this forum prefer to trade insults rather than debate. Sad. But some just don’t have the brains. Or want to engage what brains they have. As soon as that happens I just assume my opinion was correct.

I would hate for people to think insults bother me. They don’t. Not in the least. I have less than zero respect for some on this forum, so why would their opinion matter?

So is this simply the forum you go to when you want to be rude to others? I still reckon, within a day or so, you'll be bleating about this MB back over in Mungos.

This is what Is hard to understand. We all of us have personal life experiences, we all learn from them, we all form opinions based on them. Our views are our views, right or wrong. What is the problem in explaining a view based on personal experience. Is that not what life is about.

The Pride bit is a leap. Listen to football shows, players recounting their past exploits. Is that wrong? Pride? Just one example.

But you are right about one thing. Some people start from a very low point and do well in life through sheer hard work and a bit of luck. A reason to be proud? You tell me.

You seem proud to have benefited from an almost meritless system(as you describe it). If you started at the bottom, well done. You should recognise that most people have it a lot harder and arent so lucky.

Explain to me how hard (or easy) I had it at the start?

In all honesty you just don’t have any idea. Nor do you have any idea just how many people I have helped along the way. Nor do you know whether I recognise the hardships of others or not. Baseless opinions.

Your comments are all subjective and without any evidence whatsoever. Personal digs.

I don’t understand the meritless system.

If you want to do sad just look in the mirror!

Cop out. You know it. I know it.

You made claims that we both know you cannot back up. That is beyond question. You just cannot.

Your claims are simple, personal digs and Ive called you out

Worm your way out of it as much as you like. But we know the truth. You know the truth.

That is what is sad.

No it’s not yet another cop out.

I shan’t repeat previous post, the very specific claims you made. Go read it again. It’s all there in your own words.

I am accusing you of making totally unsubstantiated claims. I have invited you to offer evidence. I know you cannot. Because you just do not know. That PW is a fact.

I repeat. Your claims were simple personal digs.

You don’t like me or my style of posting, fine, I can accept that. But you also need to accept that I will challenge comments like the one you made and show them up for what they are. Personal digs.

Hi all

This thread was started to promote our latest podcast but it seems to have been hijacked.

Can you all stop please, including the moderator who has for some reason got involved (shouldn't you moderate and not engage in arguments?) and allow people to post about the thread topic.

Thanks very much.

We already know you don't recognise the hardships of others, after that thread about the food banks.

What i took from your postings was you got senior jobs after being interviewed by unknowledgeable people, who appoint more based on things like personality (jobs for the boys).

I wonder if he's a wealthy man, if he has financially contributed to the club in order to be a director?
Many questions, but few answers
Eh?

He was a fan, proper fan at that, flukey a very minor job at the club, impressed Barry and got promoted to the top spot after a few years.

Your questions are nonsense.

Totally. I’ve no idea what these two are actually going on about any more. I don’t think caca does either, he’s just writing any old stuff for BizBot to automatically argue back at.
