rooney Posted 26 July, 2013 Share Posted 26 July, 2013 I must admit that I did not like the Adkin's sacking but I am glad we have Nicola as our Chairman, who has brought so much success to our club in recent years. This looks to continue under his leadership as we are happy fans now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank's cousin Posted 26 July, 2013 Share Posted 26 July, 2013 Although if it was a story you didn't like, that would be precisely what you'd do, isn't it? The agents have an agenda, the journo made it up, and so on and so on. Funny, aint it? At the risk of boring you senseless which is your most common response, not sure how someone of your obvious intellect fails to grasp such simple points.... There will always be a difference between how folks respond to positive of negative articles - from whichever paper, even those mindless numpties at Britain's favourite 'Mail' - a paper which loves to turn important issues such as immigration in to bigoted rants to appeal to the 'little Englanders'... but that is another matter There is never really any need to be concerned about positive articles, whether they are true or not, makes no difference, as they have no impact - you can choose to believe if you wish, and most judge on previous form, but ultimately apart from maybe raising expectations in a few, mean feck all Negative articles on the other hand can be damaging - fair enough most is tomorrows chip wrapper, but nonetheless, they can leave bitterness, and can be harmful to reputations, business etc - so quite naturally when sensible folks read negative press, they will question the source and look for supporting evidence - or do you always believe everything you read? Cortese back in the press... revealing precisely feck all. He may appear in the news now and again, but as we have seen reveals nothing so is consistent with his desire to keep the important business behind closed doors.. You and Turks are strange, seriously, that you seem to get so much pleasure and amusement from winding up and irritating folks on a web forum, like some sort of virtual playground, you two 'bullies' with Hypo like some weedy kid hanger on believe its hilarious... please tell me, just what is the point? HOw serious someone wants to take all this has got feck all to do with anyone else... but you guys simply cant let it lie. .. eventually you 3 will be the only ones left in the playground as no one can have any discussion, humourous or serious without yuo and your wee chums sn iggering pathetically for your own enjoyment... seriously wierd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And judging by other comments on here, people are getting mighty fed-up with the way that those three hijack virtually every thread and reduce it into an opportunity to gain childish amusement from their puerile little digs at others who dare to challenge their views, or who don't find them funny. It's really long overdue that the mods ought to have done something about them. If they don't then more and more will just get p*ssed off with the petty bickering and decide that it just isn't worth paying to be a full member and the forum will just decline as posters decide that it isn't worth contributing anything to it.

Wes Tender Posted 26 July, 2013 Share Posted 26 July, 2013 Cortese never said that people thought he was E.T. He actually said "When I arrived in English football with a background as a Swiss banker, people looked at me like I was an extra-terrestrial". It might surprise some on here that the two things are not the same, although I suspect that this reality would take away a lot of the infantile fun element from the Mail and others. As a parallel, it would have been as bizarre as Lowe saying that people were surprised to have somebody called Rupert as a football chairman and the Mail concluding that he meant Rupert the Bear.

That is the tiresome bit and sure I only have seen a small percentage of it but to clear to me that you are always mocking someone or holding grudge It wasn't long ago that the assorted geniuses on this forum were merrily proclaiming how we didn't need the media, and the likes of the Daily FAIL carried an anti Saints agenda and printed nothing but made up hateful lies. Now it turns out that lots of people quite like the fact we are in the papers and interviewed on Sky. Because its good to have publicity through mainstream media channels to promote what you're trying to achieve. Which, funnily enough, is the kind of thing I was saying many moons ago when the forum intelligensia were crowing about how we only need to be on the official site and all other media can go to hell. So sorry. I think it is relevent to flag up these little change of hearts. And yes, I am expecting a medal or some kind of formal apology.

It's remarkable that people would believe or take these with any credence when they constantly describe it as a vile paper full of lies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
