Monty is on Facebook always trying to recruit people for his football team's veterans' squad. Depressing times.

Next time ask him if Jiggers is getting a game. He is honestly the worst sportsman I’ve ever seen but used to play with SM.

Meant as a joke, as I'm sure the negging by rotpeter was. 

You were quite right.

If you spend any time on the site you should be contributing. 

It’s quite clear that it’s Dave’s business and if you value the time you spend on here you should be supporting it. We’d be sorry if it wasn’t here

Hear hear. Of course contributing financially should be optional but it makes sense to ensure it stays online. 

 

I for one hope Dave Usher knows his worth. Carry on up the Liverpool way.

Yes, and I'm sure telling people they "should" contribute will be a winning formula.

 

It is none of anyone else's business whether someone contributes or not. It is entirely their choice. You (the generic "you") have absolutely no idea the financial situation of other forumites. Maybe they haven't been paid that month, maybe they've had a stroke of bad luck and need to fork out for something, maybe fuck all has happened. Whatever the case, it's none of your business. Nor do you know if they are contributing via donations, but simply don't have any interest in being a "gold member". Perhaps they find the occasional tedious lecturing of FFers sufficiently tedious to think "well, fuck paying to read your patronising shite twice". For every person that posts a "well, I have been inspired to contribute..." perhaps there are two more that have thought "who the fuck are you to tell me to pay to read a website". If people feel they want to contribute to the site they will, and anyone attempting (seriously, rather than in jest) to guilt trip people into doing so, is being a tit. It's rico behaviour.

Sorry if my post appeared to be specifically directed at you, Champ. Inspired, perhaps, as your post was obviously in close proximity, but it really wasn't a dig at anyone specifically. It's just something I find a little uncomfortable on the site. 

The joys of text, eh...in the same way that I think mine was probably interpreted more strongly than intended. I am not that person
