There is a lot of appalling reverse ferreting going on. This is just another example of what a honourless, morally bankrupt lot they are. Also from Wings (which is a great source for how such subjects can take over a parliament, and how much it takes before it's stopped). Can be applied to any topic you like. Trans women with penises can use female toilets, says shadow education secretary Remarks sows fresh confusion over Labour’s gender stance 25 June 2024 • 3:03pm Shadow education secretary Bridget Phillipson Credit: WIKTOR SZYMANOWICZ/SHUTTERSTOCK Trans women with penises could use female lavatories under Labour’s plans to make gender change easier, the shadow education secretary has said. Bridget Phillipson said that a trans woman who had a gender recognition certificate (GRC) “would be using female toilets” if they had not had reassignment surgery.

Yet, when I wander around airports in my underpants, to save them time, it's like I'm the bad person. 🙂

And on cue...

It wouldn't be my intention to ever be unkind. Hopefully, my posting history backs my outlook up. It's important that others, like Tommy and Nick, have pointed out what they consider to be bullying, and for others, like yourself, to provide possible scenarios that could help with understanding. Also, in how such behaviour triggers others, and things they could do to deal with that. I don't take any of that lightly. My intention is not to judge. It's to outline long standing patterns, that have impacted my activity here, and perhaps others too. I find an ongoing awareness of them helps in how I react. In a forum this big, there's not much any number of us won't have had some sort of experience of. So, on balance I'm more aligned to...
-
Perhaps Leicester could take along Vestergaard videos to any hearing, and get the points deduction reduced, as some punishments clearly already in place. 🙂

And others, in the Shortbread Assembly, over reaching themselves to keep to discredited views. https://wingsoverscotland.com/the-disgrace-of-holyrood/

When your side needs an equaliser, being taken off when you're an attacker isn't a good look. Wilder may have thought he'd be less effective against a compact defence. He also had Moore there to act as a target man. I may be being too kind there. I do recall a decent run from deep for an attempt. From the goals videos I saw, he does better in pacey end to end games, where there's space to run into. RussBall was a dreadful fit. It would require him to drop much deeper, and have pace to then get up onto the end of moves.

It's no surprise he acts in bad faith on these forums, since he has little understanding of faith. If anything, MLG is much like a kindergarten bully. The entire board is subjected to it, and the tone changes, much like having a stroppy kid in your class. Attention seeking: All the threads that end up focused on his attitude. Then there's things like the transfer window thread where he got all passive aggressive with those posting news before he could.mixed in with the "breaking news MLG" which he clearly enjoys and is fine. Undermining others: Will always look for a gotcha, whether the original post is fully read or understood or not. These will be mixed in with sometimes useful corrections, but when the corrections are wrong... Nearly everyone else is happy to give the benefit of the doubt and discuss like grown ups (mostly...well...often anyway) with a common interest. Never wrong: I can't think of many who are more factually incorrect on the board. A lot of it due to jumping in without thought combined with delusions of intelligence and self importance. As above, everyone else just happy to have a chat where we can all express ourselves and learn. I can't think of anyone else where being right or wrong particularly matters that much. Actions extend to changing arguments/points or regularly editing original posts, as we saw above and a week or so back too. Blaming others: Combined with never being wrong, it will be our fault, or recently other FM thread creators, or SI or anyone else. Huffs: When things don't go to plan, there's always just abandoning the derailed thread. When we had The Great Sulk, the tone of the place really improved after a couple of weeks. When he's here, any number of threads can be impacted by the same attitude. Before the huffs, we see someone with the emotional intelligence of a child stubbornly clinging on, regardless of reason, with no consideration to anyone else around them. Actions & Consequences: Since in his mind he's never wrong, and it's never his fault, every thread is a fresh start to repeat the same behaviours. It's been that way from the start. Different people, putting up with it, just have different tolerance levels of when to call it out. There's not much hope in it changing, but we can have some faith that it will one day. So, as odd as it seems, a number of the poor attitudes, you'd be telling your kid off about, are actually shown by MLG. As egg said "intolerant, belligerent, clueless, and dishonest" I see some of the rest of us just react to it in different, and long suffering, ways. I think that some, seeing the responses of those preparing for another slew of nonsense, and trying to put an early stop to it, consider the reactions as preemptive bullying. But, as above, there are reasons for it.
-
I thought you meant that. But I wasn't passing up a chance to mention the hair pulling. 🙂
-
MLG's original post asked why intolerance is a bad thing. A while later, someone must have pointed out what an imbecile that made him look.
-
Missing in games, or suspended? Or am I pulling, sorry splitting, am I splitting hairs here? 🙂

On the mention of loan players and getting them sometimes being difficult, I was thinking of the clubs that like to charge lots for the loan, thinking more about their coffers than the player's development at times. Then I thought we'd be due a link to Brandon Williams. Or not... https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/2035171/manchester-united-brandon-williams-football

Nice to hear Small doing well. Still only 20, and getting a good run of games, while showing his versatility.
-
I hope everyone had a good Easter weekend. I see MLG has spent some time proving without a doubt to be one of the most intolerant persons on the forum. A shame he spent none of The Great Sulk he had, travelling and sharing his "wisdom" with belief systems around the world.
-
Mowbray took Martin's tactics apart. Absolutely schooled him. I was worried that others would do just the same. Instead, we went on a record unbeaten run not long after.
-
That's the one. I've plenty of posts praising Will's development last season, to be comfortable with a post consigning a side to seasons of possession football. Like every player, I hope they all prove to be indispensable to the new manager, as we storm to the title.
-
There is always that admission that he was surprised at what was needed at PL level, and seemed unprepared. However, SR's recruitment policies have left every one of our managers, here during a window, without key positions filled. That's always setting them up for a struggle.
-
And Leicester fans thought it was bad when they got Bertrand and Vestergaard. Say hello to Baz, Jack, Ryan and Will. 🙂
-
I wonder if Farke would consider Baz? 🙂 They went straight back down with their philosophy first manager. Every time I see Parker, he's getting his hair just right. So as vain as Martin there. So lots of parallels. 🙂
-
Historically, these weren't really issues. Donald would feel right at home.
-
Mowbray now available. Postecoglou probably a Euro exit away from being likewise free.
-
If Martin would take one of those job offers, then Baz can go there.
-
Looks around at the uncertainty in the world...looks at trousers... Actually, this makes a lot of sense. 🙂
