I'm curious on WHAT BASIS are most fans NOT opposed to SiSU - where has he got his info from?
Generally to prove a point of fact, you either refer to polls, or statistics, Where are these facts that back up his claim?
Certainly from this forum, it is on fairly thin ground to say that most AREN'T opposed to sisu!
Certainly from the limited # of polls generated, that doesn't back his hypothesis either!
So WHERE has he got his facts from? or is it just his own baseless opinion? Certainly it is very dodgy to say as fact that most fans support sisu IMHO!! But I COULD be wrong
If it is his belief then its faith and faith alone - fine. Certainly he didn't produce much evidence tonight as I heard it !
I seem to have struck a very sensitive nerve tonight. As for calling me a coward - has HE served his country? I have!
Has HE served in Kuwaut? - I HAVE!
When he has served his country, and seen colleagues die, and friends injured THEN he might have the right to call me a coward. Until then are you Mr Linnell going to retract the implication that I am a coward because I didn't speak to you on the phone? How is that cowardice? Would you Apologise? Somehow I very much doubt it!
Surely my words are written - I cannot say I didn't say them - how is talking on a phone any braver? Perhaps instead of accusing me of being a coward, put YOUR words IN WRITING! you called me a coward on air - that alone is disgraceful from a supposed professional broadcaster with so many years of experience! To dare someone - I stopped daring people when I left school!
I certainly don't have to answer to someone who has never potentially put their life at risk! (or has he served his country as well? - his profile doesn't say so)
Will you apologise for calling me a coward? Will YOU retract THAT statement on air?
Certainly I strongly feel that he is NOT representing the views of the listeners overall!!
Certainly his response to callers / texters who disagree, are dealt with in a dreadful way on occassions IMHO
He has a RIGHT to his opinions - but SO DO THE LISTENERS = and SO DO I !
How DARE he imply that because we don't agree with his view we aren't real fans! To me it was just childish - certainly not the standard of broadcasting I would and should expect from a freelance broadcaster with 43 years (started 1970) experience!
According to wiki Mr Linnell "is a conference moderator and facilitator and he also hosts awards events and black-tie functions" is this correct?
If not I retract a quote from wikipedia!
Lets see if he has the courage to apologise for calling me a coward on air, the same that he felt able to make threats and insult LIVE ON AIR!
DISGRACEFUL
If you don't like insults, don't insult yourself Mr Linnell!
No, actually I wouldn't.
Just listened to the phone-in. Linnell was quite reasonable.

yep got to agree, I have just listened and it seemed fairly reasonable. Clearly he genuinely feels SISU are not done yet (does anyone else?)
Wait... Are you saying psgm is talking an absolute load of bullcrap?!
Has HE served in Kuwaut? - I HAVE!
In the 23rd Keyboard Division?
Maybe psgm1 needs to adjust his way of putting points across but i think it is a bit out of order taking the piss out of someone who has served in our forces.
In the 23rd Keyboard Division?
99% want new and better owners, but I wouldn't say we are all 100% in the Sisu out - pro ACL camp. And that's the problem this whole saga is being played out as anti-Sisu-pro-ACL vs pro-Sisu-anti-ACL and its not that simple.
And just because you want new owners, doesn't necessarily mean you want rid of Sisu at all cost. There are a lot of grey areas, and a lot of fans waiting to see how this all pans out before choosing sides.
I normally quite enjoy your comments Colonel, but that one was below the belt.
A new broom is needed, the present incumbants can't sort it out.
Not regarding someone who refers to season ticket holders as scum it isn't.
But only if they are willing to invest in the playing staff and continue to fund year one year losses though.
I normally quite enjoy your comments Colonel, but that one was below the belt.
Let's talk about below the belt.
Here pgsm calls Linnell "utterly vile ... almost as bad as Jan ... no intelligence or integrity ... simpering."
Here he calls Old Sky Blue "inherently ignorant" and SISU backers as being deluded.
Here he tells people who disagree with him to "fuck off back to Villa".
Here he tells those who set up a CCFC film night that they are "self-serving tossers".
Here he calls season ticket holders "scum".
Here he calls the 1000+ Sky Blue Trust "conniving ... pathetic ... scumbags"
And here he calls the SBT "fuck nuggets".
Took me two minutes to find those posts - and they are just the recent ones. It should be apparent to all that he's not a pleasant individual, and the only shameful thing would be to give him a free pass because he once served in the military.
Pgsm has a habit of being ott as those posts show! Shouldnt have accused Linell of anything.
People need to think before posting!
So Will and Harry are off-limits?
Why am I not surprised?
Pgsm post regular on here and I enjoy reading his nonsense. He clearly can't string sentences together very well and grammatically he is all over the place, suggesting he lacks intelligence.
Controversial comes to mind. As seen in snippets of his post above, he attacks in a way that would offend most people.
What he and quite a few others on here refuse to accept is everyone has an opinion. You don't have to like it. You certainly don't have to disapprove in the manner you display. As on the football terraces a bit of banter is ok but when you make it highly personal you not only do yourself an injustice but you let down the very forum and it's members by your pathetic actions such as the post that started all this attacking a broadcaster doing his job with personal public insults which received a threat of legal action against you.
Reading the responses on this thread show clearly the usual suspects that are against SISU who generally to side with psgm.
There are those who have bias towards ACL too and a pattern emerges of who will post and support each side.
This tribal like following one way or the other is bias in itself.
Some will form opinions that one is in support of one side when they clearly are not because the reader has not understood what has been said.
But this is a forum and we have I'm sure a cross section of people and varying levels of intellect from all over and we must all respect each other.
The problem I have seen from pgsm lately in his post lack an understanding of the situation surrounding the football club, the owners, the owners role, ACL's role and so on. Far too many ill conceived assumptions based on HIS take on it. His post take on a vision of demanding almost that you should be agreeing with him and you're an idiot if you don't!
There are some very intelligent posters on here and some not so intelligent but they all deserve to be heard and expect reasoned responses.
I'm pleased you represented your country pgsm but what has that remotely got to do with anything?
The beauty of a forum is the anonymity. You never quite know who you might be sharing exchanges with. You may want to show some respect for that pgsm and the people who operate this board. One board a few years back was threatened with it's very existence and one run by the football club was shut down. Anonymity can only protect so far and won't protect anyone from libellous action.
If you feel so strongly still, make sure you call in to the next phone in and make your viewpoint heard, without the personal slander so you are taken seriously.
He shouldn't have accused him of being in SISU's pay, but he was absolutely bang on to accuse him of lacking objectivity. For people to attempt to discredit the poster based on other silly things he has posted is a bit low IMO and those views in no way detract from the crux of his opinions on Linnell. Is Mustard a politician by any chance?
