Every thread is being turned into an anti thorn protest. Im fed up with it and it is currently impossible to avoid.
Ive noticed certain posters who made good contributions to this site have disappeared. i wouldn't be surprised its down to this sort of constant negativity.

You do realise you just created a Thorn thread - right?

Who has dissapeared. It would be a shame if it is that.

Should be if a thread is entitled that it is AT related then great.

If it starts going down that route and it is nothing to do with AT. Someone who is frustrated should Pm the mods.

If they look at it and agree they could warn the posters to stick to topic.

TBH I just hate sub forums for anything other than non sky blue stuff. ie any other business.

For me boards, take overs ,managers, team selection, speculation is all what a sky blues forum should be about. The title of thread should tell u what it is about.
If u don't like the title don't read it.

If certain people always take a thread off topic the mods should contact that person.

Stop creating sub threads and deal with the problem directly.

Yeah there is 10 of us apparently. All Sky Blue John ever does is complain if anyone criticises Thorn. There are currently 12 other threads live and active with no mention of Thorn.

We must have the only supporters in the country who try to exclude talks about the manager - and a club that has been relegated. It's weird.

There is a thread about pies - now if someone starts talking about Thorn in that thread then fair enough - unless it's a complaint that he has eaten them all.

I dont agree that we have a sky blues old players forum.

These threads bore me. However they are titled with the players name so, I do the adult thing.

I make an informed Decision and don't read it.

I dont go on the thread moan winge and have a pop st the OP that I don't like their subject of choice.

Now we have a sub thread. At this rate we will have a sub thread for every individual topic. Read the title of the thread and work it out.

If not, read the odd post and move on.

This is basically 'please hide things I don't like', which kind of goes against the whole idea of a forum.

Sorry - so the OP starts a thread twice in a week and now will not respond to any of the points on it. I think he is a WUM to be honest.

One of the main problems is that it doesn't matter what the thread title is it gets turned into an anti thorn thread. You tell me how i avoid reading it.
I am not pro or anti thorn i am pro ccfc !!!!

What do you mean as frustrating as every thread being anti thorn ?

Don't the anti-Thorn posts generally get greeted with pro-Thorn counter-arguments? Like a discussion should develop? On a discussion forum?

Most threads don't mention thorn - why make things up?

I'd have thought the vast majority of threads in a forum about Coventry City will render it relevant to talk about the manager.

So you have to have been a member for a certain amount of time to make a judgement? Thanks for letting me know. Just how long do you have to be a member to make a judgement? I'll put it in my calendar. I look forward to the day when I'm allowed to voice my opinion. Just let me know exactly when that is. Cheers.

The site is better now than it's ever been.

If you don't like a particular thread, don't read it.

If you don't like threads in general, post better ones.

If you don't like the site as a whole, start your own.

My favourite film is Moby Dick.

Or is this taking things back down the anti-Thorn route again?
