Maybe not but you are unique in as much as other CEO's don't use this forum for they're own ends, by coming on here posting you leave your posts open to interpretation from fans, mainly from fans what believe in you and those others that think you have a motive, scarlet is a fan of the club and not necessarily a fan of yours, as a paying fan of the club he is entitled to an opinion whether it differs from yours isn't the point, if you feel the need to post on here then you should be big enough to take the criticism along with plaudits, the decisions you make are your to do so as you think fit, surely your old enough and wise enough to realise that maybe you can't please everybody, this is not a criticism of you btw just simply an observation.

You make out it's about opinions, when what actually happens is MC shares FACTUAL insights and information with fans.
I for one, am glad we have such an open and accessible CEO - it's better than the alternative.
And no, I don't agree with everything MC says or does.
I am not clever enough to run a SL club, but I am clever enough to recognise that MC is. On that, I trust that he has the best interests of the club at the centre of his efforts.

This is a forum, it's about opinions not censorship, I too can't wait for MC to come on here and share the FACTUAL insights and information with the fans, unfortunately those FACTUAL insights and information you naively dream about will only tell you what he thinks you need to know and bare little consequence to what's happening in the real world which doesn't quite fit in with your open and accessible CEO theory which is how it should be and is my point entirely, he should not be discussing club business on here other than telling you how many ST the club's sold along with shirts etc etc, putting you on the horse and not giving you a ride springs to mind here.

I do not want to know about the behind the scene negotiations so your post at best is completely wide of the mark. I know I have no entitlement to know and I am quite happy with that much in the way the club will not discuss signings until completed.
I am not sure what the BLM movement and people’s reactions have to do with this topic.'"
BLM as an example, seemed the most current, I can be more obscure if you wish?

Who is being censored?
When there are 2 opposing opinions, or sources of information regarding WT, I'm gonna believe the person who is "there", not the bloke who heard it from his barbers, sisters, window cleaner.
You might be happy with simply knowing how many shirts or STs have been sold, but many others "demand" to know much more.
In reality, MC doesn't seem to come on here and share unsolicited information - he comes on to add corrections and context when some know-it-all has been spouting utter garbage.

Nobody is being censored as well you know so don't try and be smart.

The opposing opinion is that scarlet pimpernel said the CEO in his OPINION should not be coming on here using this board to leak certain things about a player as he thought it was unprofessional, the CEO had a different OPINION to this and said so, in my OPINION I agreed with scarlet pimpernel and said so, your OPINION differed to mine, so we all have different OPINIONS, so what's your problem with that? maybe the CEO has the hump on with the bloke from the chippy whose barbers sisters window cleaning boyfriend leaked it out before him

I'd be ecstatic if we sold millions of shirts, but if I really wanted to know I'd ask them in the shop when I bought mine.HTH

Didn't you say that he came on here to share FACTUAL information and insights, he came on here to criticise a player for causing the club problems, fair enough if that's how he wants to operate .but where were the insight and the FACTUAL information regarding this player who has the grievance? don't tell me he hasn't told you, incidentally scarlet did not agree with his methods and in his Opinion (that word again) disagreed with him, I've said my bit on the matter you want an argument there's a couple raging on the VT should be just up your street.

WTF are you on about!!?
YOU introduced the notion that someone was being censored, as opposed to having opinions discussed.
I stated I preferred the dialogue that our CEO provides on social media. You stress that others can have different opinions to mine, but you do this by capitalising the word opinion 6 times, to underline that you mean opinions you agree with and not the differing opinion of others!
MC came on here to correct some spurious info (not the first time), in order to correct untruths and misrepresentations that couldn't be allowed to go unchallenged.

What spurious information, untruths and misrepresentation did I make, please enlighten me.
That’s the problem with the forum it cannot take many more leaving it just because you and others don’t like being questioned.

| Be careful you could fall foul of the moderator and I wouldn’t want such a refined contributor like you to be banned. I will ask which spurious, untruths and misrepresentations have you found in this topic.

Why would I be banned?
RE: Posts - I clearly referred to wider social media, not just here - I'm sure you know exactly which mischief has been pedalled on here and elsewhere.
As an example; the allegation that we have SL squad players on less than minimum wage.

I don’t mind criticism when it is backed up by facts, not assumptions or rumours. Fact is that 99.9% of stuff out there is way off the mark and has potential to cause damage, mainly mentally!

Your pushing against an open door here as I have every sympathy with the everyday problems you face, I'm not criticising you I was simply saying that everybody is entitled to an opinion, I personally have criticised old scarlet for his negativity towards you and the club in the past and no doubt will in the future, unfortunately I came up against a poster that deliberately twisted what I said which in turn made it look like I was criticising you in my response to him.

You struggle with words, don't you?
Not having a go, that wouldn't be fair, but take time to read what you type before pressing "submit".

In an effort to save time, perhaps you'd like to point out the error of my ways, personally I don't feel you've been fair in your criticism of me but don't let that stop you in any way having a go, and no I don't struggle with words either.

Shame because course not too bad despite a limited workforce but the rough and bunkers are a little severe. I am surprised you are not playing especially has you like a round of golf and have a competitive handicap I hear.

Apologies for not seeing this till after I replied to your post, You be whatever you want, nice or not it matters little to me, but you are right though you do come across as being rude and argumentative, you don't strike me as doing nice either but I do appreciate the gesture of you allowing me to take my time to respond.

You're welcome, and see, that's an improvement (5/10).
Better with the punctuation.
Of course, your premise is flawed - if I was indeed a rude and argumentative person, I would have called you and insisted today is Friday.
