Honestly the PR used to be so much better, Eastwood if you're watching, never go for the cheapest, always go a few up the list, like wine.

Fixed it for you, bro:

When people signup to discuss other things as well as CCFC, on a forum which has specific sub-forums for that very purpose, I get my judge, jury and executioner hat on because I think they stand out like a sore thumb.

It really isn't hard to grasp.

It's just that they don't bother with CCFC. That's the point being made.

The sub forums are for the people who discuss CCFC to talk about other topics. It really isn't hard to understand. There is a technical section, it isn't for people who are mad on video games to sign up who have no interest in CCFC.

There is no "think" about standing out like a sore thumb.

Astute doesn't bother with CCFC and seems to spend 95% of his time in the EU thread.

Is he not a CCFC fan?

Of course it's not unreasonable.

However if you think people start accounts because they're on Wasps/CCC's payroll, why not restrict access until a certain post limit? It's a valid point, no? Those that have no grasp of CCFC will 'stand out like a sore thumb' after all.

Maybe because those people are a small minority?

They do stand out like a sore thumb. It's not really a talking point.

Could well be. I'm not sure on your personal life and dealings with Royal Mail.

What a strange comment.

It's not really strange at all is it? You have tried to wade in and yet again stood out.

The same attempted "work in the industry" back story but very little input or knowledge about CCFC.

The usual line is to pick a year (make it a good few years ago) and then google for an event to make it sound good.

Well considering you seem to be on here 20 hours a day and feel a physical requirement to respond to every post you disagree with, in the grand scheme of things then no, it doesn't really seem that odd.

Off to lunch and will enjoy picking up mugging you off on my return. Have a good one x

It's not half as odd as somebody with no interest in CCFC signing up on here, then get called out and then try and cover it up by creating a cheap free email account using their username. Schoolboy error on signup?

So we have you in the bank and insider in the auditing and neither of you seem too bothered about CCFC?

A bit weird, it's almost as if this sort of thing has happened before so people can spot it a mile off. (which they have).

Shock horror, people that have jobs sign up to SBT.

I didn't go to Walsall at the weekend just for added proof that I'm "not bothered" with CCFC. You've got me bang to rights.

You surely can't be that thick? People who sign up with no interest at all in posting about / discussing CCFC who have both been very quick to go on about their occupation about being in the know about it.

Again, pretty obvious really.

Nothing wrong being a toilet cleaner, mate, and they provide a valuable service. There's nothing worse than rocking up to the throne at work at seeing it covered in shit.

Yes but if the coupon % increases then the fans are inadvertently starving their own club of cash. I wonder how many investors really are fans tbh.

The smart money probably got out before the bonds dropped below £1, about a year ago. Its only suckers left now.

Sorry couldn't help it.

The thing is the people on here going mental about the Wasps owner fail to see our owners are no different.
They have no love it loyalty to the club would have no quarms about moving us away if they thought they could get the fans backing.
And are just looking for a return on their investment.
Two peas in a pod in my eyes, both are just walkers who need to get out of sport.

Anyway, sorry to interrupt the in house bickering, but when is the actual cut off date for SISU to appeal the appeal. I though it was 12 November but I heard Clive on CWR mention he thought it was 16th. Anyone know for sure ?

Have a day off. I compare the two regularly. It's funny, SOME people on here used to compare owners and staff to say how great Wasps were...."If only...." I have said all along they're no different to SISU, I am being proved correct.

How are people going to get to a certain post limit if their access is restricted? I'm not sure you've thought this through.

No, I haven't. Because I'm not the admin.

However using common sense, restrict access to the CCFC forum only, thereby allowing people to comment freely on CCFC. When they reach x posts, full access is granted so that they can comment on 'Off Topic Chat' and make one wrong move and be accused of being Wasps PR. Pretty simple really.

Common Sense says only people interested in CCFC would sign up to a CCFC forum. I don't own or have an interest in MG's. Hence I haven't signed up to an MG Owner's Forum to discuss Coronation Street.

When people try to sign up with no clear interest in CCFC, they stand out a mile off.

So, ideally both you and "insider" would start to show a bit of interest in CCFC. Even simpler.

It may well be but it's how it is. If you don't like it, you and insider can setup your own CCFC site to discuss everything but CCFC.

It really is as simple as that.

I, just like the vast majority were never questioned when I joined as I posted about my team. You bots stick out a mile, your crib sheet on how to defend doesn’t work when we’ve all clocked it. Come up with something new.
