I love the way that threads on boards like this can migrate from one idea to another and morph through different concepts. What is annoying though is that no matter what topic is being discussed here it always becomes about genghis. The team performance; the future of the club; everything becomes about this knob. Don't take the bait and let this troll swamp open debate.

Or learn to read.

In my third or fourth (since deleted) post in this forum if you read the first letter of each line, it spells out 'I am taking the piss'. No-one caught on. Yesterday, I literally said that I'm taking the piss but no-one acknowledged it and continued the back-and-forth instead. Seems to me that people enjoy it more than they claim they do.

Just a bit of fun. BlueandWhite Flag is a bit of a dick though.

I didn't read that latest loooong post, but did look at the edges to see if you were Rick Rollin'.

But to post 138 times whether a "joke" or not, is bordering on psychosis. Plus some of the stuff could easily be seen as libelous. Court's don't get jokes.

Over a 2 month period, it really doesn't take too much time out of my day. A fair few posts I made while watching City play.

'Libellous' is a stretch. Most was pretty tongue-in-cheeek.

As is most libel !  "I was only having a bit of fun!" is really no defence. Mind you, you're not worth suing anyway, you have no money. Defamation is for those who can afford to win, against those who can afford to lose! 
Your comments might be tongue in cheek, but have been very disrespectful to staff and players of the football club that you say you support. And for what purpose?

What an interesting definition of libel you hold. With such a lax definition, almost anyone on this board (or almost any other) could be prosecuted for their comments. I've seen numerous posts on this forum suggesting that Hampson has stole money from the club. It's far more of a serious allegation than saying that John Snape doesn't flush the toilet after having a s***.

I have not once disrespected a City player. Show me a post where I did.

[Brooksiders Return!!]

You have been disrespectful of the football club and those who serve it. How do you think players feel when people like you are suggesting that their manager is making a drunken play at their wives and girlfriends? How do you think players feel when you are suggesting that their manager is taking money from them? They've made a commitment to be at this club, often based on their feelings towards how the management act towards them.

I wouldn't worry about the libel issue, as I said (and I have first hand knowledge of defamation law) no-one will be suing anyone for anything.

Only to the 1% of Khants like you.

Everyone on this board apart from you and your 1 post mate seem to have their heads screwed on.

Now back to the topic !

Thought City did very well but in particular Hamilton Chiwara had a top game.

Understand he is a former Kidderminster youth player and has been playing mainly for our U21s this season, think he has shown he can play at this level now and would like to see him involved when possible.

James Baldwin, not impressed when he has been on the wing but the last two games he has looked a different player up front.

Note that Fishwick is away and obviously Tyler Weir was out suspended so with both of those coming back I think our backline will further strengthen.

Looking at results this season so far and its clear any team in top 10 or so is capable of beating one another, our results have been positive apart from losing to league favourites and a draw the other week against Long Eaton where we should really have had all the points.

All in all I am enjoying this season much more than last !

I know Rich & Tim contacted BBC H&W to say about the 8-1 in 1991, but when was the last time we won by an 8 goal margin?

I will go for the 12-2 home win v Oswestry in the mid 70s. I think it was he season we won SL Div 1 North...in style

I stand to be corrected but I seem to remember beating Folkestone 8 nil at the lane the season after we went down from the conference, so about 1985,John Muir got 4 I think.

I would imagine those players take their information from more reliable sources, not an internet message board which the majority are not even aware of.

They weren't aware of it last year anyway!

Well actually you imagine wrongly,I know for a fact that many players do their research even before joining the club, I know that because I made comments which caused a player to decide against joining WCFC, even though the comments were factual, and fans do talk to players, and players come on here more than you think. but thats not the point, the point is, you've shown this football club no respect with your childish and disturbing, factually incorrect postings, all for a bit of a laugh. Trouble is, no-one is laughing, except thankfully at you.
If , as you're now saying, none of the accusations thrown at John Snape is true, then I believe that you owe him, and those who entrust him to manage a team of young players, an apology for being a rather silly person.

They were no more ridiculous than many of the aspersions cast on Hampson by multiple members of this forum. While many may have had a factual basis, many more are deliberate exaggerations or just outright lies. Maybe your definition of respect doesn't stretch that far though.

[Brooksiders Return!!]

There is little regarding Hampson and the Board that is written on this forum that isn't factual. That's the difference, and everything written about the Board has either been put to the Board at AGM, or will be at the next AGM. Just as it was to previous Boards.

To get respect - you have to earn it - which this Board certainly haven't done given their intransigence and antics over the last decade or so...
