The Kraken Posted 22 June, 2013 Share Posted 22 June, 2013 In light of the other thread running. Which posters did you used to enjoy on here, but don't any more? Apparently there are lots, so lets have a list. For me, only a couple: 19 Canteen, a fantastic loony; and StuRomseySaint, a poor old soul but capable of causing an e-riot on here. You?

lloydie Posted 23 June, 2013 Share Posted 23 June, 2013 Didnt enjoy their postings much, didnt dislike them either but i rember a few posters such as buzzin orn, saf and berkshire saint all contributed a lot then dissappeared. One poster that was decent was gecko, designed the shirts we wore but havent seen him in a while... Thought he was the9 for a while with his shirt geekery!

Badger Posted 23 June, 2013 Share Posted 23 June, 2013 Javi FACT I know he would regularly be mercilessly slated on here, or on Saintsforever, but I always thought him quite an interesting poster, who would put forward a good case for his own view (even if others disagreed.). Okay, the De Pedro saga, mihght have riled a few people, but I never understood the level of flak he received, if for the posts alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, the De Pedro saga, mihght have riled a few people, but I never understood the level of flak he received, if for the posts alone. Here are three aspects that tell part of the story: 1) the scapegoat factor - bullying behaviour intensifies when people smell blood; 2) the xenophobic factor - you might blame Fawlty Towers for this one!; 3) the tribal factor - some posters seemed to dislike his perceived presumptuousness (his "foreign" intensity and serious passion for the club ran counter to their banter-based, clannish insularity). As I say, that's only part of the story, but - as another "outsider" - that seemed to me to underpin some of the negativity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was often misunderstood, not so much for what he had to say but for the way he put his views across. As English is not his mother tongue, he often chose his words/sentences in a style that came across as presumptuous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fowllyd Posted 23 June, 2013 Share Posted 23 June, 2013 Did we ever find out who Left Back was? Certainly the closest person to the inner circle since Cortese arrived. I thought he was Dave Jones - the erstwhile financial director that is, not the eponymous ex-manager. I hope the mods will forgive me if this post is libellous or naughty in any way.

Fowllyd Posted 23 June, 2013 Share Posted 23 June, 2013 Scoobie. I really watned to meet him. Scooby (please forgive the MLG-style pedantry) was hilarious, not least in his ability to wind up those who took him seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio Saint Posted 23 June, 2013 Share Posted 23 June, 2013 Come to think on it, when St. Landrew and the other mods of that era were dismissed for some kind of new system, the trolls started riding in like a wave of Mongolians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
