Wakefield board.

Topic - problems with million pound game - now locked.

I clearly started a heated discussion because I found a certain poster's response to traveller community offensive (used a shooting emoticon), I wouldn't usually be so quick to get frustrated over what could potentially have been a rash or harmless message had it not been for two pertinent reasons:

1. This poster "Big Lads (sic) Mate" has recently also dismissed immigrants and refugees by claiming they should be sent back on a boat.

and

2. Looks very likely they are closely connected or related to a first team player

What has really irked me, however, is that particular board's moderator response to this - instead of questioning some seriously EDL mind sets on there - they've decided it's all "trolling and hysteria" pretty much burying it, I believe, rather than challenging potentially illegal and prejudice behaviours by their board members.

As the title says - get a look while you can - make up your own minds and I'll be interested how this is perceived on what I always thought was a more insightful and balanced board within rlfans.

I have no problem whatsoever with caravans as long as there is a hatch on the side with someone inside selling burgers.

I've read it. Massive overreaction from your part IMO to a throwaway smiley. I don't agree with his point of view, but it's not worth getting your knickers in a twist over an brainless smiley on a message board.

I don't understand what you think you'll achieve going on all guns blazing back at them (pun not intended).

I see where you are coming from - but to reiterate: the emoticon on its own would arguably not warrant an outcry (although I'm sure it could be argued that it was incendiary) but that I'd already recently read comments by this poster that were clearly I'll-judged/informed about immigration.

In terms of achieving anything - well, let's say, I was clearly getting nowhere on Wakefield board, but had hoped there might be some like-minded disgust on here, not just towards the number of offensive responses but more for the so-called reasons for locking original thread, which I believe were to halt the outpourings of their own members (and in all likelihood someone closely connected to the club) but instead of condemning those morally (legally?) on dubious ground - the blame seemed to be aimed at anyone (particularly myself) who simply wanted to challenge and confront prejudice - I was blatantly in the wrong place for this (as Bradford fans I'm sure will attest after their recent visit).

Wow. Can't believe the OP has started this thread slow news day in cas or what.

What an absolute string.

"EDL mindset" you really are a sad pathetic individual if you can get that from a use of an emoticon. No ones going on a mad tirade to kick all the gypsies out of Britain

I've checked it and I've come to the conclusion that...

I don't care.

An emoticon of a hunter firing a gun - with the statement "ones (sic) enough" I see as an EDL mindset - why would anyone want to shoot someone you know little or nothing of other than the culture they belong to?

I think you mean BNP mindset

Really? Why?

Because as far as I am aware the EDL had one particular aim, and that had nothing to do with travellers. Granted, BNP racist idiots were attracted to their demos though

A few things :

1.-your looking into something that's just clearly isn't there. I don't know BLM personally, but I can tell he's definitely not the type you clearly want him to be. I've seen plenty of posters put

next to someone's name e.g plenty of ref topics for example, does that mean they want to shoot them? No it doesn't.

2. If a Cas fan said it, would you be here on ranting about it? I've very much doubt it. You can carry on stirring e, but you clearly have an agenda.

3. BLM's comment was in response to the topic, of which travellers were ILLEGALY setting up camp, that they were in the wrong - not a single poster on here would not feel annoyed if some travellers set up somewhere illegally that caused inconvience.

like I said on the Wakey board, the worlds gone mad when they take emoticons seriously. Mountain out of a mole hill.

Agreed. In hindsight BNP would have been more appropriate. But they are partners in many respects - and considering a not insignificant proportion of travellers and immigrants are of Muslim descent is why I opted for the EDL association.

No rose-tinted glasses here - I have come across a few equally dislikable individuals amongst the Cas contingent at matches and react accordingly.

If this is not typical of BLM's personality then how do you explain his(?) solution to immigration on another recent topic?

This, perhaps, has now got a bit out of hand (which I'm responsible for) but it all stems from a pair of rugby league topics digressing into offensive political tub-thumping which I wished to confront.

Storm & teacup.

Seems the OP is one of those who like to take offence on other peoples behalf. Massive overreaction, as is often the case with that type.

Theres many a time if i'd had a gun in my hand i'd have shot one

They are selective when they read, and when they listen

" No my van isnt for sale, does it say for sale on it? , then its not for sale "

" Well we'll just take it anyway "

" Fine, but youll need to put a wheel on it and free the brakes before you tow it away "

" No i dont have any scrap for sale "

And on, and on, and on until you eventually get abusive with them and threaten them with the police

Then " Theres no need to be like that "

Scum basically, thieving scum

Oh the EDL are just as racist and nasty as the BNP.

morrissey, another one of the perpetually offended brigade looking to make a mountain of shock out of a molehill. Go have your hissy fit somewhere else.

Exactly. A literal take on a throwaway emoticon.


I doubt he's the type to care what club they support to be honest. And i don't think it matters.


Exactly. When it comes to setting up camp illegally in an area, one is too many and they do need to find somewhere else.

I have no idea what that has to do with EDL, immigration or politics. I think he needs to step back, have a think about what his agenda is and what is the best way to deal with it. Maybe a private message? Not an over the top tirade on a public forum (causing it to be locked) and then restarting it on another in hope that someone will agree with him.

I think the term "wind your neck in" fits the bill here.

Or to pardon the pun, 'have sex and travel'.

Isn't questioning moderation against the AUP?

If you have an issue Pm admin.

WOW!

is there nothing else happening in the world?

Didn't Morrisey used to be the Consumer Monkey on the Vic and Bob show.
