We were a pub team I coached for a long time and we won 95% of games because winning is a mental state driven by a desire to CRUSH an opposition. Did FC look as though they wanted to Crush Wigan and strangle them until they screamed ? NO RL is a tough tough game and Maylord She-dong you have no clue In fact don't ever ever reply to any of my posts again

I don't remember these chaps being all that unpopular.
This is more your level of public service popularity.
EDIT: Hope nobody saw that, didn't realise until I checked the post that Tufty had been slightly adapted into a rude GIF. Sorry kids, all better now.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Fecking brilliant. The nit nurse. That's exactly what I am.
Now, make haste with the pinking shears, my feathered friend. David Mills won't create himself, at least not out of old Christmas cards, unless he's had a Paul Cooke moment of self-importance. I'm sure if he wanted to actually create himself Mild Rover's missus would put him right from a genetics perspective. Sorry for the split infinitive there, but doesn't sound right otherwise.

Whilst it could be argued that your posts in isolation do not break the AUP, your outlook and method on this board is parasite-like in respect of the fact you choose to engineer posts/texts out of their original context.
This does not mean you are any cleverer than anyone else, it simply means that the rest of us are not bothered enough to waste our time and energy keeping and maintaining a database of quotes - this is simply not normal behaviour.
For example, at the time posting, as I look out my window I can see snow outside. It is quite plausible that you will list this in your database and bring it out next summer when it 's bright and sunny
Why don't you turn over a new leaf by deleting your database or can you not bear the thought of posting on these boards without your leech-like behaviour?

Look, you like to make shouty statements that some might construe as arrogant. As we have seen there are multiple examples of this, from predictions of players signing for Rovers, to slating O'Meley and Fitzgibbon before they arrived as 6 years past their best, to saying Rovers would finish 3rd and Hull FC 9th and following up with comments about people being insane to think FC could make the play-offs, to saying Mason would be here last week, to posting 150 times in 48 hours that Tom Briscoe is unathletic, immobile and slow, whilst Fox produces Offiah-like brilliance.
Why should you not be reminded of these somewhat nasty/cocky opinions and predictions when they're proved wrong? Are you saying we should just nod along and agree at new ones when your track record is patchy at best?

You are quite irritating. Particularly good at avoiding difficult and direct questions like how come Marc Herbert's here already having got his visa in less than 3 weeks, when you signed Mason 12 weeks ago.

Mrs B, I don't find you irritating, more of a challenge. I only wish I had enough time to give you a run for your money sometimes, alas my life is too full to become a full time keyboard warrior!
My only (slight) critisism of you is your limited use of emoticons. There are more to chose from than , &
Try expanding your use, or occasionally not using them at all, most of of kinda get your mood without them!
