Handed out one too many forum bans some were saying. Others said he had it coming. I couldn't possibly comment. 😆 The two are not mutually exclusive. 😉

I don’t think you were. I can’t find anything to support that. Try clearing your cache and logging back in under your original account. This usually works. Its a known regular occurrence for some on here and is an issue with Proboards. You've not been banned.

Can people please be a bit less abusive to other posters.
Gasdust has had a lot of unfair abuse on this thread and it's unnecessary.

Make it a crime to be lonely or sad. Best lock me up then.

I want to stop people being racist and homophobic. I'm sure that we all do. I think that what MSM is saying, is that it needs to go deeper than just telling them that they are not allowed to say those things. It probably does, but not saying those things is a good start 😉

I disagree It very much did work, but what people laughed at was very much generational. My grandfather was born in 1887 and laughed with the character not at him. My own father, a racist dickhead (born 1930) also with, not at. A lot of us laughed at. And argued with the National Front in the 1970s I think you are being a twat - People are entititled to their own views. You and I were not arounfdi in the 30's so have no idea of the feelings at that time. It is better to try and undersatand why people thing as they do rather than act supperior with your own comfertablke life feelings. And before you get all Woke on me - I'm 58, half Polish with grandparents that died in Camps in WW2 so obiviuley not racist - You should have had a chat with your Dad and understood why rather than acting so rightous I think someone else picked this up already, but I agree with them that you don't need to qualify your statement of "I'm not racist". It needs no justification whatsoever and should be the baaic standard of any decent human being, which Im sure you are. Adding additional information is often used by bigots who say things like "I can't be racist, I have a black friend" while they continue to be racist twats. A good example would be my father, who is a vile racist and misogynist despite having a Philippino wife, 2 mixed race children and 2 daughters.

How many throw ins in the opposition half have we thrown backwards to our back 4 this season?
Surely we could be more positive now and again?

Why? That's like saying if I stick my arm in a lions mouth I should blame the lion when he bites me. Everyone knows Ticketmaster are both incompetent and a rip off. Gorringe should never have even entertained using them. Who would you recommend for an online ticketing service and data system? It was working before Gorringe outsourced it. If its not broke, don't break it.

He is responsible for outsourcing to Ticketmaster. F**k him. Shouldn't you be directing your ire at Ticketmaster? Why?

Buying and selling players like Conteh is the only model that makes sense. Assuming we can sell him at a profit, Connolly, McCormick and Taylor all looked similar good signings but we probably couldn't sell any of them at present not for a profit anyway. We're certainly not going to sell players we spend all this season struggling for several in L1. It's neither an exact science, nor an over night fix but it's the only way we are going to lose less money each year. We don't generate any non match day revenue so player sales and owners deep pockets are the only thing keeping us going.

The original 'gluten for punishment' post has disappeared, thus making all the witty bread gags totally redundant ☹️ That's all we kneaded.

Scoring will be a achievement for us What’s that? An achievement is doing something well or successfully. I don't know what scoring is.

I think the owners will stick with him and give him a budget to re assemble , and as is clear it will have to be pretty hefty.
It seems to me what happens between now and the end of the season will not make the slightest difference.
Personaly I would move him on , appoint someone with real pedigree , that can bring in decent players , and swallow pride.
New canvass , if you like.
Decent players like half the shower of sh**e we have now, brought in by someone who people think has contacts? If we ship the sicknotes and bad attitudes out and get 5 or 6 players with Contehs attitude and resale value then I'd consider that a success. The myth that we have a decent squad of professionals should be well and truly dispelled for everyone by now surely?

Yeah, about 4 seasons the way we are going. You do wonder how the new owners are going to finance annual losses of £4m whilst investing £m's in two new stands which, whilst they are being constructed, will probably mean reduced attendance leading to reduced income. Even if they cut the wage bill by 25% and losses by a similar sum, that still leaves substantial losses each season until both new stands are built. Buying and selling players like Conteh is the only model that makes sense.

Easy to do a “proper job” on stadium redevelopment when you have a retired billionaire willing to throw 10’s of millions at it. I’m sure there must be loads of billionaires among our fanbase - I just wish they’d come forward 😁 Oh go on then ….. will £30m cover things ? Yeah, about 4 seasons the way we are going.
