If someone posted something abhorrently racist on another site that doesn’t mean it doesn’t become racist on this one if posted here etc etc Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not looked through yet.) Didn't think that there was anything particularly pejorative or inflammatory in it at all. Absolutely f.kin bizarre. What on earth is going on??

Something feels very wrong if you're not permitted to host a discussion about the way the club is managed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The piece in question contained things that are widely believed but the fact that things are widely rumoured or circulated is not a defence in a defamation action. It is very easy to egg people on to risk their houses. If I had any accountability for this site I would have taken it down as soon as I could.

Alas, only we could land someone of this level of incompetence. I kick myself for not fully realising the sh!t we were in when I laid eyes on Cakeball!!! like it, or not, we have been for some time, and still are a ****ing joke, IT HAS TO STOP, before the corner can be turned. swfc has to turn into a professional football club, and cut the clowning about, and amateur approach out.

Yes, I agree you need to remove anything which crosses the line, and I fully agree with that , but to basically shut down debate on an issue that concerns us all seems gives the impresdion that certain individuals do not want to scrutinised.

If I had any accountability for this site I would have taken it down as soon as I could. you/we have to be careful, I don't think people always fully appreciate that when shooting from the hip. the 'owlstalk thought police' are there to use common sense, and look at it from afar, whilst (hopefully) keeping themselves and us outa trouble. no doubt some of the things said are in a number of peoples heads, but it's not always advisable to 'fire it off'. i'm not sure for one moment they're policing thoughts, but 'outbursts' yes. although we believe we are correct in posting our views, they have good reason to be cautious. I feel like a poacher turned gamekeeper having to post this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy for one minute that he is just an adviser. I think there's a picture emerging, and perhaps Chansiri is not the 'one man band' we're led to believe.

Something doesn't add up. If he was just an adviser, then surely he would have been binned off by now? If you think back to that second season where we were parking players like Urby Emanuelson. It all stinks. I just wonder whether Chansiri has got in to deep with certain people and can't get out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
