When Jeff said last year that he was giving up running the forum I was glad (no offence to Jeff) because the forum was past its sell by date and had degenerated into forum 'personalities' arguing.
I thought that once this forum closed there would be enough interest to set up a new forum.
Recently things have become much worse on here,I know that I am not the only one who his sick of every thread being hijacked by court case/B*****/armchair legal experts.
Why not lump all that **** on the non football part of the forum ?

Dear Trymer probably does have a point.
There's a case to be made for separation.
'Gas Football' for matchday/footballers.
'Gas Guzzler' finance/trials/facilities.
We may have too many non-football threads.
Isn't this another one of them, mind?
There's a reason we discuss crime though.
It's because we're managed by a criminal.

You could always not read it? Problem is thats taking over virtually every thread....whats the problem with lumping it all in one big **** pile and dumping it in one place so only the people who want to read it need too ? |

Again, this may be directed at me.
But I do think you have a real point here.
If I were running it I'd merge a lot more.
But others would hate that too.
I think the match is on right now, mind.

Remove the person causing the problem, give it a little bit of time for the stench to clear, and that'll be that.
Maybe aim the criticism at whoever brought the bloke here rather than moaning on that people are talking about a Rovers' related issue on a Rovers forum.

I am not moaning about it being on a Rovers forum,I am moaning about it being on every thread. Why cant it be on one thread ? then all of you can post all you want to and the rest of us dont get p1ssed off with having every thread taken over by it. |

Will the posts moaning about others' moaning all be confined to a single thread too?

I think that for some of us this is the headline story about the club. It's sufficient to keep me from attending. Prior to lockdown, whilst I was in the UK I think I had missed 3 home games in something like 20 years. Perhaps to people who can ignore what the bloke is it's not such an issue, but to others they are offended by his presence, every day, so it's inevitably going to be a topic that's going to surface continually? |

If there weren't some similarities to Raskolnikov, you wouldn't be reading crime and punishment on here

Why not lump all that **** on the non football part of the forum ? Bristol Rovers were mentioned 5 times in a short piece, in a newspaper, about upcoming court cases. Is that what you are looking for? |

I always thought watching Rovers came under the category of Crime and Punishment anyway.

You do realise, of course, that we were probably all wife - beaters in a previous life and our Karma sentence in this life is to support Rovers.
There are a few who are trying to gain parole by pretending to detach themselves because of B*****, but it won’t work I’m afraid.
