No you don't. Each thread is judged on its own merits. A Peacock thread would be good,nice to see some positive news after the games name has been dragged through the mud.

Gavin Miller - Legend wrote:On the subject of James Rule what's your thoughts on his actions
My thoughts are indeed plural, so I take it you mean "what are". I've posted them a lot on the FC board. A lot. They are really 2 fold. The first one I can't post on here because of Anakin Skywalker - he would simply edit even though I eluded the swear filter. The 2nd is why on earth would he bother. Like Rovers, FC were utterly anonymous and pointless mid-table fodder last year and early casualties in the CC. Abundantly clear to everyone that absolutely nothing was at stake, so why he risked his career on a knackered and troublesome centre is baffling.

No, I don't. The very recent widening of subject matter on here to include anything and everything RL related, which is clearly entirely coincidental with the recent dramas at FC is new information. Why, only a couple of days ago, MrPhilb's thread on the same topic was locked by your fellow moderator instantly. On FC's board we can't even discuss ex players without lockage. I am pleased to see a broadening of horizons heralded by the bad news at Hull FC this week. Perhaps whilst we're at it, we could post more stuff about Rovers too, fans' thoughts on the Steering Group and its output, perhaps, stuff like that. It's all good.
"Wrong board. To discuss implications for Rovers use their board; to discuss implications for wider game use the VT."

Interesting, sadly the first 4 are all the same thing much as the bottom two are as well
But nice try, one day we may be as embarrassing as Hull FC

I can see you are upset. But look on the bright side, Mr Rule left you with year on year profits. Granted he didn't pay all of the bills but that's no biggie, you keep telling us we don't pay any bills but it's worked out alright for us. You didn't even need a fairy Egyptian godmother because you got Lord Faulkner

Me and my grammer eh still you understood what I said. Will your lasting memory of Rule be this incident or his preening of himself and everything that was Grade A at Hull FC? As has been said twice already threads are judged individually and MR deemed Philip to have been a wee bit naughty. The Steering Group would generate good debate I agree. Nice you have ideas on how this board might be moderated but of course ultimately that's not in your hands.

At least he made up with David before he died.

We made a million quid under Rule, I think. We owe it all and more to the taxman. So we're bankrupt, humiliated and have cancelled our camp. Rovers will win the derbies by a combined margin of 100+, I think you'll agree.

And your spelling. It's "grammar".

I don't know really. He certainly didn't preen himself, he looked a right tramp with that beard. I quite liked the fact he bothered to do Airlie Night tbh. At least we could do the BS bingo card and saw it for what it was. Unfulfilled promises, I guess, that seemed to characterise KCFM and its rugby programming.

Good. I like MR a lot, he shows good judgement.

This is not the unoffical board, and I claim my £5.

I should blooming hope not. Just pointing out that Kosh posted what I think we previously thought was the party line in relation to threads started on FC's board re Rovers last major cock-up, Willie Mason. Just pointing out the slightly different approaches. Best practice, you might say. As long as we're all clear, we're all clear
