[quote="Clearwing":2uyix8r9]New role for JJB?[/quote:2uyix8r9] At one of the Ilkley Lit Fest RL events I went to JJB was one of the speakers. He was brilliant, another RL obsessive. I don't get a lot of the stick he gets, sure it is like he is trying to learn a new language, that only contains long words, but there are far worse things in life.

A huge amount of RL fans hate their own players, administrators and club personalities, and love nothing more than to slag them off for almost no reason. Part of the reason the game won't grow when it's own fans are so grumpy.

It's the inbuilt inferiority complex and lack of self esteem that RL has. Anyone that appears to be "getting on" is criticised.

It didn't, we knew what you meant and it was funny.
