Th simple fact is too many on here antagonise others, tbf yous are one ggmi, I’m not having a go or judging cause I don’t do that but if folk purposely try to upset others what do yous expect? But yous don’t just lose those who are attacked yous lose many, many more who just avoid th place because it’s not a place that’s fun ta view anymore. Tbf it’s been goin on a few years now. It’s why I rarely post.
Ye can go to a pub an enjoy debate an banter an a few laughs , but when everyone’s arguing an winding each other up lookin for trouble….we’ll that’s when yous leave an do something else.
No disrespect meant ta anyone.

No disrespect meant ta anyone. No truer a Scottish word said…A completely fair comment. It’s also why us mods have been tightening up on the WUM postings by banning people for periods of time because it was creating a sour atmosphere.

I always enjoyed reading his match reports as I am sure the vast majority of us did, but there was invariably making an personal issue out of what he said. No wonder he gave up. All I would ask is that he at least gives it another go and we respect his views. Yes disagree with his comments if you must but show respect

Yes disagree with his comments if you must but show respect I think he was just very passionate but I know he was a strong supporter of Barton. Steve if you're reading, come on down 👍

He went to a lot of trouble compiling those match reports , probably just came to the conclusion - do I really need this ! I struggle to be bothered to write at most a couple of sentences !!!! 💙 UTG

The amount of time and thought he poured into it and then having to face facile comments from nitpickers and contrarians. No surprise he stopped doing it and it’s a microcosm of what has happened to the forum as a whole with good contributors either contributing less or not at all.

I don't post anywhere near as much as I used to as an ex-mod. Needed to step back after all the arguing and point scoring. Still always lurking though.

I’ve stepped back big time as well. Still a massive lurker though. Think this started with the allowance of the Prem youth teams into the L1/L2 cup in whatever name it had. Then there was the Coughlan and Barton camps, Covid and now apparently Barton is the culprit for splitting the fan base. The only time I truly witnessed anti Barton venom was Exeter away this season. We all need to respect opinion on here but a lot don’t and if you don’t agree with their propaganda it isn’t worth expressing any opinion because it becomes a fight. Steve's match reports must take so much time and effort and must affect him being able to just switch off and enjoy the match. He demonstrates so much passion to do this to help those that didn’t get to the game but it was often thrown back in his face because he didn’t always support certain views, players, managers the antagonists wanted to hear.
Come back Steve, under a new username - stop the reports but not expressing your opinion and go and enjoy the games as they are really demanding our attention at the moment

Just thinking to myself whatever happened to stevek192? Steve has a couple of issues with Diabetes atm, he is still about but not able to make the games live. He watches every game on iplayer presently and hopefully he will be back soon when his health recovers.

Just thinking to myself whatever happened to stevek192? Also annoying is the posting of pointless threads like this.When a simple trawl through the membership would have told you Steve192 is still an active member.

I always enjoyed his match reports, but can understand why he knocked it on the though. Would be good to read his views on here, when he feels up to it.
