You still aren't reporting anything though, weirdly?

It's the standard though, just cry racism. You just prove my point.

Long time posters left the forum because of your inaction in stamping it out.

Anyway, Farage is a c**t and I would be heartbroken if our club stooped as low as ITFC have.

Why didn't you press report on the things like has been asked 1,000 times? I assume you mean the poster who hasn't actually left the forum?

"Nick lets racism slide"
"Can you press report so it alerts everybody"
"Somebody else said they left"

Would you actually be heartbroken though? Heartbroken is a dog dying after 12 happy years, not some c**t getting a stadium tour.

This is why I said the world is fucked, people completely unable to actually have a discussion. Absolutely petrified of it.

Not half as much as when you gave me a weird threat for mentioning you begging for Wasps tickets.

You might be the easiest person to wind up on the whole forum. It took a grand total of four words to get you taking personal jabs. If you genuinely think anyone struggles to debate a subject with you because you know what you're talking about, that's a level of delusion a psychologist would take a long time to unpick.

Ah yes, funny isn't it?

I wouldn't want my club being associated with a divisive racist scumbag like Farage. The backlash IT are suffering shows the feelings and outrage his VIP visit has caused. You'd be cool with it obvs, but not me and I would guess many others.

Mock all you want but yes I would be heartbroken.

You should ask them what a personal jab actually is. If you think it is somebody pointing out you begged for Wasps tickets when you were telling other fans how ashamed to be a city fan you were because you didnt agree with their politics then fuck knows how you make it through the day.

I am not really sure you understand what heartbroken really means. Give it a couple of weeks and there will be no backlash and nobody will even be discussing anything about Farage and Ipswich.

It is going to be shit not being able to go to some away games in the prem because of your strong morals though.

The bit where you likened people making a gesture in support of racial equality (made following an event that demonstrated that there is anything but) to a grifting politician seeking attention for its own sake.

That Black lives matter as well as being a specific organisation, is also a useful phrase for a more general movement is very relevant. Pretending that anyone objecting to footballers (or anyone) taking the knee was the result of careful investigation into a specific organisation is disingenuous in the extreme.
Click to expand...

That organisation were a bunch of grifters as well, which is why it is all best left out of football.

I am pleased to see most people on this thread, regardless of their political leanings, largely agree that this nonsense shouldn't be a part of the game.

Pompey are absolutely appalling. Head says Oxford go too and Lesta stay up due to the extra quality in the squad but the heart hopes i'm badly wrong. Relegation to League One would be too fucking good and the players they were probably planning on selling to save their skins for a bit longer would fetch even less in the transfer market.

I mean if we want to start making things up we can spend all day with varying different things you apologise for?

Although as the mention of Wasps gets you making weird, soft threats I'm not really sure you can handle it and I don't want to be responsible.

I reckon Pompey have been through their bad patch and will hit form again.

Wednesday Oxford and Leicester for me.

Oxford have been on fire but still can't pull out. I think they'll fade away a bit.

Lesta’s home form is just rancid is my thinking, while Oxford are putting up resistance home and away.

Lesta travel to Sheff W on Easter Monday. Part of me is extremely tempted to go up to that one and sit in the home end just in case they lose. Would be one of the funniest sporting days of my life.

Funnily enough when Cov won the cup in 87, Leicester got relegated. I think if we win the Championship this season, it is second in magnitude only to the cup win (bigger than 67 because the game back then wasn't so distorted by parachute payments).

Pages and pages of a thread that has turned into a completely political thread.

Literally could have simply been. "Look its that utter bellend Farage. Fans will be annoyed. The club have fucked up" and that would've been the end of that.

The same people on here always looking for a political argument or just an argument. Ruined a thread that I really, really like.

I agree, the thread should be for talking about Leicester getting relegated, turncoat wankers O'Hare and Hamer getting exactly what they deserve at a shit Blunts or Birmingham City just being hilariously shit while Kyogo stinks out the joint as possibly the worst Championship signing of all time.

It's true about long term posters leaving.

A few of them DM'd me and said they had, had enough

But can we all please get this thread back on track.

So, I would like...

Boro and Millwall to come up with us ideally, as an automatic, with Leicester to go down.

As for the playoffs. I have a sneaky feeling that Wrexham might just do it. Like it's written in the stars.

I think Oxford will stay up, been on a decent run bar the Southampton result. They seem to be able to grind results out better than Pompey and our six fingered neighbours.

Also for future reference, it’s both spelled and pronounced ‘Lesta’. I don’t know where people keep getting ‘Leicester’ from.
