Et tu, Sir C? I would have thought you were the one person on this board who'd have got that reference.

So you see conversation as a transactional process? How odd. You think that, merely by the fact of you saying one thing, that obliges all other interlocutors to speak only to that and nothing else?

May I suggest that what you're doing here is actually hijacking a thread which Chris has started to try and get views on how to improve awimb?

As soon as I get some new shoes I'll walk to Sidcup to get my papers.

Bang on.

This was actually a very useful tactic deployed by the clique to stifle debate and criticisms of Arsene FC. Threads would be spammed and trolled to death so it was job-done for the Wengerite hijackers.

And as you rightly said, already this thread has been hijacked. I mentioned that racism/race-bating was out of hand on this forum then within minutes we had trolls hijacking and going off-topic with irrelevant racism on twitter, which was actually an own goal by the Empire Brits as the sympathy and condemnation came from Irish twitter users and the tweets that the link had on the page were by users from America and beyond :hehe:

All this actually means is that to improve the forum to be better civilised and more accommodating means certain people would have to look at their own oafish behaviour hence their hijacking.

Errrr, no. I'm disagreeing with you. But I'm guessing that, as a keen conversation Nazi, you don't allow that either :hehe:

I think it's a bit much that Old 'Un+ has awarded his own thread 5 gold stars tbh
