I did. They did nothing. Hence................

(If only it had been dealt with in the correct manner by the mods eh? Especially as I know that at least one was on AFTER I had complained and, guess what??? They reprimanded someone veryeden01 on page 10 but strangely seemed to ignore my complaint.)

As I said, I did as I was asked. Makes you wonder what is the point, especially when the board is clearly modded more favouranbly towards some than others.

However, I have made my point, for all the good it will do.

Aaaaaaaaggggggghhhhhhh!!!........

Once upon a time this board stood out for being the one place that didn't descend into bickering over everything. I hardly remember it.

he'd be ok if he was sued for slander

They're not rants. Eddie made a point and you've spent 3 turgid pages trying to tell him he's wrong when it was nothing to do with you to begin with.

If anyone's wrecked the thread it's you.

You can not say it is not at me when you dont know who it was aimed at, i wasnt saying he was wrong just i believe it to be aimed at me, IF it was not aimed at me and however was aimed at Eddie then yes i hold my hands up and apologise "Im Sorry"

And he says he has spoken to the mods about this then fair enough but no need to post it all over the thread, if they know and havent dealt with Adey then thats a problem he needs to continuely take up with them surely.

Anyway...........................

I reckon goulding would be a good catch, cos he is fairly young and like Ainscough seems to be getting pushed out at wigan and only used for back up, but pryce would have to be last option for me,

agree with the prop situation though

Goulding got a 3 year contract end of last season IIRC. I'm sure that means he will come at a cost.

Could always use the money from Lynch, but doubt that will happen



Like someone suggested in an earlier post though about Lee Smith, He may not be a bad option TBF

Just read all the strange tirades above. And for Heaven's sake!

Guys, after some deliberation, and in view of the pretty serious allegation made against me, I'm posting this - the [uonly[/u response I shall trouble you with, after which PLEASE can the thread continue on topic?

I use the term "fruitcake" (amongst other, less complimentary, terms) to refer to - and give my succinct opinion on - people who say (or do) things that seem to me to be quite absurd or ridiculous and at variance with what I would expect a sensible person to say. I read quite a number of comments before my post - including, but not confined to, some IMO quite absurd statements from the individual who has made the allegation - which caused me in exasperation to express a succinct opinion on what I had read. I avoided saying what I really thought about some of the statements, since (on past experience) that would have been quite counter-productive - and the fallout of no interest to most sensible readers of the thread.

For the avoidance of doubt, if someone should choose to call me a "fruitcake", I would regard it as their opinion of me and on what I said. I get called similar things and plenty worse quite regularly (see Gurus Beard for a reasonably definitive list...

)

I make no apology for implying -or indeed directly stating - that somebody has posted statements which strike me as absurd or stupid. Indeed, you will see me doing precisely that on a regular basis with the more absurd trolls who visit this forum (and for which, see my avatar). And, for sure, I find many of this particular poster's contributions to be absurd or stupid or not at all sensible, in some combination; but that is just my opinion. He clearly feels the same about mine, given how he regularly attacks me or what I have to say directly, without provocation or invitation, often by leaping in to support posts by others that are critical of something I said and otherwise nothing to do with him. For my own part, I have not engaged with that individual directly on these forums for many months, nor do I intend wasting mine, the mods' or everyone else's time ever doing so.

But if that individual has contrived to convince himself that I was making any adverse reference whatsoever to his depression, or indeed have ever done so, then he is both completely mistaken and, I suggest, exhibiting worrying symptoms of obsession and paranoia?

That is and will be my only comment on the subject. Thank you for your patience, and back to the sensible discussion PLEASE on what is a pretty important subject.

...and, on topic, I very much tend to agree with those who have repeatedly argued we need a pack front row "enforcer" as the priority. Added to what we have now lost with Lynch, and the strengthening we have done in the three-quarters and halves (loss of Raynor notwithstanding) surely this must be the priority now?

i think karl pryce would be scrapping the barrel tbh , no doubt he has the ability to play in the halves as his handling skills and kicking game you will struggle to find better when he is on his game , the fact that a player with all this ability has been playing on the wing says alot i think..... he has the heart of a doormouse and is possibly the softest bloke iv ever watched play the game professionally!!! such a shame as a 6ft7 , 18 stone half back with some grunt, aggression and kicking game would be brilliant for us , unfortunately from what i can gather he just cant be bothered .. which is a crying shame because from what iv seen of him when he is on his game he is an unreal talent , goulding would be a better option in my opinion a bit more urgent and industrious , the gap to be filled in the props however ... i have no idea at all , i think tom b is going to have to step right up and be counted next year , which i personally dont have any worries about i think he will develop into a very good prop

Dont think anyone would seriously suggest signing karl pryce to play in halves. just because he played odd game for us in an injury crisis is pretty irrelevent. he's been a wing/ ever since he came back from union.

What about trying to sign Sam Burgess ive heard he has a bit of quality

Been awayfor a couple of days and not been able to read this so sorry if its been said already but does anyone know what Raynor has suppose t have done???

No, and it's possibly wise to not speculate too heavily

i wasnt suggesting him to play in the halves, all i was saying ( in a long winded way !! ) was that he has always had the ability to have a very good career , just doesnt seem like he can be ar5ed! the front rower " enforcer " iv got no idea who will get but it will be a struggle to get an improvement on lynch thats for sure

If you ask Tigertot, he'll probably say Raynor voted Tory and smells of wee...

Otherwise, I'd suggest Roofaldo's advice is very sound.

Usually where there's one, there's the other.

Has Roofaldo advised yet... seems to be quite bad, being as though giving a new contract and one of our better players last year.... shame to seem him leave

Fruitcake.

Get Out!!

Does it contain nuts or any trace of ???

Yeah, well done. Usual denials but this time trying to turn yourself into some form of victim. On a LARGE number of occasions you have mocked my mental illness then tried to pretend otherwise and yet you STILL get away with it despite the number of times I have reported you. Check your own posts and see where the term "fruitcake" is used most often. Somewhat telling.

Still, good work, not only do you practically deny all knowledge you then go on to say that you make no apology for deliberately breaking the guidelines that the mods set out just last week and I re-familiarised us with earlier in this thread. You also imply that you will continue to do so. Therefore what is the point of moderation at all, especially when you, in a post utterly brimming with arrogance comes on here and tries to order people what to do. Again, if YOU had not started it by making petty digs it would not have gotten out of hand.

Still, well done, you have probably fooled a few more people on here to go alongside the ones that are frightened to challenge you.

When the mods made a thread about expected behaviours the one thing that was asked for was fairness in the moderation process and people to be treated equally. Clearly this is never going to happen, as you are testament to.

You know PERFECTLY well what you are doing and by trying to deny it is just silly. Grow a set and just admit it. I can quite easily take your abuse if you are man enough to name me but the way you hide behind fancy words is pathetic, especially when it is quite clear who you are referring to.

Do us all a favour and avoid me like I will avoid you. Oil and water and all that. Or maybe even fruit and cake?

Jeremy Kyle???
