Edit - just seen the thread in the other forum.

Point taken. I think this thread has numbed my senses so much that I have been rendered a half-wit. Hopefully it is temporary. ...please excuse me while I diappear into a corner and have a quiet word with myself.

You turn into a man responsible for Red Terror and the deaths of tens of thousands of innocent people? Not sure that would help. Just sayin. *note, I'm being mischievious, but an odd thng to say nonetheless.

Going off topic (or is it on topic), CARD have just announced they have raised £41,000 for their protest fund. Some going that.

People will also sometimes retweet something they don't agree with in order to expose the person who tweeted it. I once retweeted something from David Icke, some far-left anti-semetic shite that was completely bonkers. *note, not saying that was the case here, just making a general point.

The UKIP one I find odd. A few strange characters waving that flag - but their membership is mainly made up of people who wear too much tweed and who have an aversion to wind turbines. EDL et al, that I get.

Say something funny Otis. This thread is depressing me :(.

It's what happens when your entire business model is geared around page views and ad CTR - you can get filler fluff and click-bait. Telegraph still has a place, major news stories like the little girl who was tragically killed require feet on the ground to cover properly, as does rolling and...

Don't mind night games, just the rush after work that is a hassle. Plus cannot get my lad out of bed the next morning. Thought they might have waited for the outcome of the FA Cup ties before rearranging this - might have been able to fill that blank Saturday in December.

You're trying way too hard now. The Cherry Tree is on the route, and it also a place where city fans park. The fact it is a pub is irrelevant, because as pointed out last week's march started at a pub and was civil and restrained. This conspiratorial stuff is silly.

Is it me, or is someone being called-out for suggesting a player doing well in the U23 squad be given a first team shot? I think I may have woken up in a parallel universe this morning. It's been a surreal day.

That's an interesting way of looking at it. I've had the odd drink in there, just seems like a social club where football fans meet to have a pint before the game. Not sure where the drunk chav thing comes from. Last week, City fans left a pub, to meet up with Charlton fans who had left a pub...

Not excusing anything, and I'm not sure what the high-fives comment is all about. Just trying to take a considered view, that's all.

I think you may be taking a bit of a leap there. Nobody is seeking to excuse racism, and I've never been comfortable with the use of the word 'racist' as a catch-all term for people who have views that are considered questionable. From what I know, and I haven't seen the retweets in question...

Witch-hunt. Not surprised by it, we live in an age where somehow it is more important to be moralistic than it is moral, where what you think is considered more important than what you do. It doesn't matter if you're decent, charitable, generous and moderate in your actions; if you have a view...

I wasn't suggesting this be done instead of those things, it can be done as well as. But point taken.

I'll make some enquries and update you when I have placed the order. Knowing my luck, the day they arrive SISU will sell up! Although, I'd take that.

I've emailed a couple of UK companies to get an idea, but they might turn out expensive. £3 quid is the target price, sell them for a fiver if possible. Will probably have to get them from China in the end. Cheers for the link.

That's a pity, perhaps they thought you were Leicester Tigers fans! Could go for the pink and navy from 1889 - would stand out and wouldn't clash with the colours of other clubs.

Toying with the idea of getting hold of a load of red and black scarves (colours of Singers FC 1892-1898) to sell amongst city fans. This has been an effective and non-confrontational way of demonstrating opposition to club ownership at Man Utd and currently at Charlton - but in our case can be...
