I think we'll agree to disagree then.

Do you not think a lot of these spelling 'mistakes' and grammatical 'errors' are done intentionally by people who actually do know better? I know for certain the person who got Danns' name wrong does. Surely deliberately targeting certain people and trying to wind them up in that manner is equally a form of bullying? Or am I hoping for too much that a teacher might be fair-minded about it?

Of course you are right, and that is why SuperScout is now banned. I didn't realise that the poster who spelt Danns wrong was doing it deliberately. I don't think most are doing it intentionally to be annoying, though I do agree most will know better but are doing it through laziness. I know, for instance, that when I post from my phone I can't be arsed to go back and correct all capital letters and mistakes so just post it.

For all you know, we might have offered CMS less than he was on at Peterborough, or less than WHU and QPR have. That doesn't make him greedy, it makes him normal and the same as you and me.

Some of them were alright, in fairness. Others had no clue whatsoever how to deal with someone who was clearly bored of the pace, and didn't appear to give a shit.

Go on foxestalk and read all the comments that are spouted on there. There is an unbelievable amount of shit posted (and some on here). I still don't feel the need to correct, belittle and patronise people. Sure I will argue my point but I would like to think that 98% of the time I would not get personal. Some people clearly have nothing better to do.

If true this is a good sign that Sven is not simply going to agree to outrageous wage demands, even if the owners are prepared to write the cheques. I am sure that the dressing room is a happier place when players are on similar wages. There must have been a couple of players last season asking themselves if the Yak was worth 10 times what they were on.

See, this is where we differ it seems. With a few significant exceptions, I don't think anybody has got personal.
I think most of footballers to day are - Most clubs have 1 or 2 players that love the club they play for and stay loyal - the rest of the badge kissers are just out to fill their piggy bank as fast as they can giving it "it's only a short career and my family needs security " - I'm not the greatest mathematician in the world but if a footballers earning a meagre 10k a week on a 3 year contract that works out at approx 1 and a half million - now how many years would it take me to earn that?

So you think Blue Maniac is one of those pedants? :icon_eek:

Do you really think we would have offered him less than he's already on at the posh?? I don't know what WHU offered him, but he saw fit to say no to it, and by all accounts it looked like he was going to sign for us but then asked for more. You may say he's asking for what he feels he's worth and we've not agreed with his own valuation. Greedy is just the term used by the fella who told me that Leicester had decided to pull the plug on the deal.

I'm not saying he isn't greedy, just that we don't know it. Kingy was telling him to feck off based on what he assumed was/is happening. For what it's worth, I think there are much better strikers out there than CMS so won't be upset if we don't get him.

I agree, I don't think people are getting personal with a few exceptions.

When people do get personal, it's usually dealt with appropriately :icon_wink

Yes and I noticed after I posted. :icon_redf My point being, I think that there are more than afew exceptions.
