Baz v NV v Scott

 

Hard to pick when you like all 3 but this is Survivor Series and only one man can win. 
 

Do the right thing (insert name of my slight fave) 

 

Don’t pussy out. 

 

I’d say it’s more a handicap match. 
 

I get this is all a joke, I’m not out to fight. Genuinely.

 

I like coming on here and talking about the reds. Apart from going the games, I don’t really have anybody else to chat to about us. 
 

Since the turn of the year, I’ve tried to rise above it (see post #2 in the summer thread). Whether I’ve been successful or not, I’m not going to judge myself, I have tried. 
 

IMO, the responses towards myself (and other posters) have become more and more aggressive, rude, dismissive, even homophobic and, IMO, enough is enough.
 

As other posters have kindly said, I’m supposedly a decent fella, I like talking about the reds, it’s more fun than work, I’m not prepared to have 1 bully (and the worlds worst White Knight) ruin it.

Lifetimes Fan’s attempted defence, made himself made a complete prat of himself, scuttled off and then returned hours later trying to take the moral high ground. It was very amusing. 
 

I get the last bit, I’m as down for a joke as the next poster, this isn’t taking the piss now, it’s attempts at bullying, which I won’t let succeed.

Scott, nobody is bullying anyone. Wipe your mouth and get on with it. Disagreements happen. Lifey is so far from a bully it’s unreal. He’s ginger.

I don't think people are trying to specifically bully you, Scott. But there's definitely overspill of frustration that has become entrenched and turning a bit toxic. If everyone's honest with themselves maybe they'll see that their perception of the issues within the club are clouding their interpretation of things other people post at times and it's leading to people being treated as proxies, either for FSG or for clueless social media naysayers (Rash, basically). I know the latter is sometimes my reactionary feeling anyway.

 

It's a bit wank, really.

Then you need to take a look at your own rudeness, dismissiveness, and aggression. Over day later, after posting on here several times, you returned to insult me and try to start it up again. Playing the victim won’t wash. At minimum your hands are as dirty as anyone. 
 

For a long time insults and belittlement have been your default reactions to those who disagree with you on this subject. If you can’t admit that you have an agenda and you’re not just some unbiased, objective fan waiting to give credit where it’s due, then to anybody who has read anything you’ve written for the last decade you’re going to look dishonest, because you do so obviously have a bit of a vendetta against them, or at least try to paint everything they do in the worst possible light. And that’s fine, you’re allowed to do that, you can hate their guts and you may or may not be partially right; but you do know you have an issue with them, you do know you’re entrenched, and you do get annoyed by anybody who says anything positive about them. It’s also okay to have a different view of them, it doesn’t make any of us shills (and I mean, fucking hell, I’ve been posting on here since not long after Istanbul. I’d have retired long ago from the proceeds of my shill-ery). 

 

I’m certain you are a decent fella, that doesn’t mean you can’t - like the rest of us - act a cunt sometimes or have pet subjects that you’re too close to or defensive over (mine is Starmer), or go too far with those who disagree. It took me every fibre of my being not to call Stig a one-shoe’d cocksucker for bumping the Andy Carroll thread, but I’ve grown, so I just left him there. 
 

Maybe a reset is needed. I’ll try to understand your position better. What I can’t do is let you keep punching at Scott, as he’s a bit of a lone voice doesn’t come on here to be fucked at.

Lifetime Fan isn’t the one I’ve accused of bullying, he’s the hilariously bad White Knight.

Think this has been aimed at the wrong poster…. Or I as least hope it has!

Fair. I do think the aggression & dismissiveness has been upped significantly recent though.

I refuse to accept I made a mistake, so now it’s me and Barry against you. Fuck FSG.
 

Yeah, I genuinely thought I read that Barry was saying  we were rude and aggressive and whatever. I’m clearly mental. 
 

Fuck. This is a bad one. What a RiS up.

I’m clearly having a massive mental collapse over here, telling Scott to leave Scott alone. I’ve no time for Andy Carroll shenanigans right now.
