Yeah, you keep saying that......but you keep coming back.
Im not sure who you are or why you think you have a right to question me or how i "keep saying that" as i rarely post on here now. This is the problem "old man" people like you dont allow folk to have an opinion. And if they actually voice one, well......eyes up from the Daily Mail and back to the forum ey?
Anyhoo im off to push kids over on a trampoline.....enjoy life up there on your pedestal xxx
I neither questioned your opinion nor did I say that you're not allowed to have one. Anyway, let's have a look, shall we? From your last 8 posts:

It seems anyone who doesn't agree with you is "a joke" or a "plank". Who's on the pedestal?
I just don't get why you feel the need constantly to insult the whole forum. If you disagree with someone, fine, say so. Nothing wrong in that. Otherwise, why not set up your own forum where no one is a joke nor a plank and you'll be happy.
Don't let the old man in.

You could argue that my point is well made then?
The fact that so much shite gets spouted is apparent.
I mean no harm in my annoyance and certainly not personal mate but i do feel a tad negative about this place.
No harm intended

Personally, never.

I was stone-cold sober at half-time last night. By 9.40 pm I was well and truly drunk. Yet all without a drop of alcohol! Sometimes there's no greater elixir than life itself (and a great Barrow win). Good times.

But how we deal with the bad times (and our club is familiar with them) might be more open to debate. Given the impending crisis – where we are supposedly going to go short of all and sundry during this coming winter – maybe we should stock-pile the beer now. It beats stock-piling toilet-rolls (well, perhaps not for all circumstances). Besides which, those old enough to remember football matches of yore will recall that most toilet rolls ended up unravelled (and thankfully unused) on the pitch after a man had kicked a ball into a net (odd correlation of stimulus and response is that).

A cellar full of alcohol at Holker Street (do we have a cellar?) might pay us back handsomely when all the pubs have run dry. The punters will all be pounding on the gates to get in at Holker Street, even when there's no game on. We could sell it off at profit even when there's no other goal in sight.

Upon reflection, i havent insulted the whole forum, not intentionally anyway. However i do believe that there are morons who contribute nonsense to it which does lead to decent forum members having these opinions. I appreciate MP you pointing out my last few posts and indeed are all negative. Maybe im in the wrong but i tell you what i wouldn't like to be a player or member of staff reading this forum.

Anyway im off for a pint at euxton villa

A minority of drinkers in pubs act stupidly as well. Should we ban drinking in pubs too?
People at the football scream profanities at other people for 90 minutes, should we allow that in pubs too?

You are blinkered if you can’t see this is an idea that would cause more trouble. Never mind the thought of standing on a terrace on a Tuesday night in January drinking a flat carlsberg out of a plastic cup.
No issues in Germany with it, although the rules for European games are different where they only sell non alcoholic beer. No issue with Rugby fans as well. I am sure that if it is allowed then it won't actually change much apart from the possibility of getting a soaking when we score ;)

By the way, I am neither for nor or against it. If it happens then it would be handy to have a half time pint without thinking about missing part of the game or necking a half pint, that is the extent of my opinion.

As an added note, drinking Carlsberg out of any cup is not a nice thing to think about.
