And then the shadow banned posters would form a fraternity outside of the forum and just keep up the 'bad' behaviour - reporting it all back as soon as they could get a chance. Yes, I'm thinking about the double secret probation in 'Animal House'....
There would also be the issue of how you define whether a post is about football, could something as innocuous as 'Brighton has some decent restaurants' get a post removed because it was not specifically about football ? Would pub recommendations disappear ? Things work about as well as anything could at the moment.
This may not be the thread to disagree with another poster but I find Stow's posts more of a reality check than divisive, ditto Yoda. Yellowrider not so much so. It's a shame there cannot be much constructive criticism of each other's teams but understandable given their ridiculous colour scheme...beyond that our differences on football can blind us to more general matters where conversation on the social side of life could be to our mutual advantage.
'In a letter addressed to Fifa president Gianni Infantino and general secretary Mattias Grafstrom, seen by BBC Sport, Fifpro and the World Leagues Association say if Fifa extends its own competitions then it should alter others.
