Yeah I never see any ads and the experience is so much the better for it.

If you want to see pettiness on twitter try throwing a few opinions at Les Reid he doesn't agree with and see how long it is before he blocks you.

When he went through a bloke's twitter and found some (granted, racist tweets) from about 3 or 4 years ago I think it was so then found out where he worked and let them know all about it...Then keeps gloating about it

I can't wait for Sunday, seeing the team led out by an ex-Liverpool goalkeeper and an ex-Man Utd forward. Who knows, maybe that former Everton striker will be fit to make an appearance.

Just shows how most of this forum and many on Facebook are out of touch with reality .
Simon is a genuinely nice bloke , I know him and he is now a family man after having his first child and he supports Coventry city like the rest of us .
Not actually sure where the hate for the man genuinely came from tbh

Has he been to many games this season?

What has him having a child got to do with anything at all?

Why are people out of touch with reality?

He may well be a lovely bloke when he goes home to his son and fair play to him, I think most just comment on his work... (apart from the odd lego hair comments)

Not knowing Simon Gilbert in real life doesn't mean people are out of touch with reality, it means they are just talking about the side of him that they see, his online presence.

Aye, people say Fisher's alright IRL, but you wouldn't want him in charge of your football club.

Yeah he's probably an absolute top geezer who can neck a pint in real life. Still with lego hair though. But he's a bit of a wally on the internet.

He has a different opinion to a couple of vocal people in here.
He was on here and to be fair he held his own very well debating with them and quite a few times showed them up.
It seems professionally he then had to come off here.
Since then as expected open season started on here and it has gradually built. However he has done quite a few things recently that has made it easy from them to grind their axe.

Saying "are you ok" isn't a debate. Why did he stop posting? Why has the ccfc Facebook group blocked him?

I assume professionally he shouldn't really be posting on here under his name. How many other local journalists do you have on here posting under their real names?

I assume he is getting blocked from things due to having debates with the ex head and current head of comms at CCFC?
Unless you know something else on both accounts.

In quite a few debates on here. He definitely got the better of the few people who are the most vocal about him now, same with PWKH, when he used to post on here and proof people wrong with the facts.

However Gilbert is definitely giving people the ammo recently, I can't argue with that.

However when the other chap asks where does this hate come from he is a nice bloke, that's the crux of it.

Looks like somebody had a shocker with a copy and paste article this morning too! Forgot to change Hull for Coventry

Would be better off getting some content writers based in the Philippines or something, can't go wrong with them.

I've 'unliked' him on Facebook. I'm very disappointed he hasn't ran a post or even a 3 part article on this!

You could have saved time by just saying 'usual suspects' and putting a tin hat on.

The account in the name PWKH.
Don't really know what you are talking about regarding Facebook.
They only thing I know about is what has been on here regarding his spats on twitter. Which as I said if giving the ammo to the likes on here who have grudges from the past.
Please enlighten me why has he been blocked on Facebook. When was that and does it explain the hate on here that emirated from the days that he was posting on here.
Also as I say can you name one other journalist posting on here under their real name
