Abusive about your family? That’s a bannable offence, surely? |
I can’t remember the exact wording but it was about my wife from a couple of posters - it wasn’t necessarily abusive about her but it was a very cheap and unnecessary thing to bring onto the board |  |

I’d call that raising awareness and evidence.
Gah, people never change here. I’ve been called a narcissist enough times for simply making my case.
They never change. I think I’ve changed a lot in the decade plus I’ve been here. Shame others carry on with playground BS. |
Differences of opinion happen Callis - sometimes what you post is compelling, sometimes it is insipid - much like many of us. Targeting a post > targeting a poster. |  |

Hatchets buried a long time ago, best to leave them there. |
TBF If the hatchets have been buried, it's not very fair to hint at their existence in the first place. | |

No. You raised it. Not me. You address it.
You don’t get to criticise people then try to claim it’s a buried hatchet. Evidently it isn’t. So elaborate… |  |

I didn't raise it, you did with your comment.
"The self re-invention of TWTD posters and burying of posting history for moral high ground or enlightenment gets dull. I’ve been here long enough to see it. Same crap smoke and mirrors Politics pulls all the time." |  |

So no. Not a buried hatchet for me.
Again. Elaborate… | |

Well, I sincerely hope that’s not repeated. And I don’t see the connection.
Having said that, I think you yourself deserve criticism on this thread and should deal with it like anyone else. But your response has been disappointing. |  |

Your abusive rants at me in the past were all deleted by Phil.
I do think you've changed for the better since your recent return, fwiw, hence my posting of the 'irony' gif. That was all it was. | |

I’m catching up but I don’t disagree with the statement in context to ITFC. Chambers is a bigger part of our folklore than Cook, and more likely to have a memorial design at PR than Cook in the future.
In regards to wider football the statement doesn’t work, but as someone who’s been victim many a time to “NO THAT’S NOT WHAT YOU MEANT I DECIDE WHAT YOU MEANT AND I’M DOUBLING DOWN TO KEEP THE PILE ON GOING” threads, this screams of it.
I mean, in a way mildly amusing as Joe was a front runner of vegan threads and doing it my way back in the day, but also Joe in general is a decent poster and any past (seitan mock) beef is water under the bridge. But also I see a few others who never have an issue doing it to other posters taking the moral high ground.
TWTD, I rarely come on here now and I don’t miss it much. I expect I’m not missed much either. It’s like screaming into the abyss these days. I’d rather smoke a J and chat face to face about issues with those open minded to listening, keyboards and egos make the internet in general a hellish affair.
But back to the OP, I’ll always have more time for Chambers than Cook. Did people forget this last minute goal against scum, his role in the MM side that was our only season of note in the last 15 years and the atmosphere the fist pump brought? It was a relationship too many like to focus on the latter of and forget the good times.
We’ve all let Alan Lee off for going to scum, folks need to get over it. He was right, Cook f**ked it. |
I was wondering where you’d been.
Is a shame you’ve left actually as in the couple of months after we called a truce, all was well and pleasant. And then you stopped posting. |  |

You’d think I’d actually said something that is properly out of order and abusive, or that Chambers had |
I don’t think anyone has said you were abusive.
Just that it reads as though you’re revelling in his sacking. And sort of shows that you never liked him from the start, something you denied. You’re free to like or not like whoever you want so I just never understood why you didn’t say back in July that you weren’t a fan of Cook rather than pretend to be impartial. That’s literally it from my perspective. | |

Cook should never have broken up the squad, claimed that it's bloated, then signed nearly the exact same amount of players. Same issues as before. Football is a team game and there's no thing such as a team when there's no cohesion between the players because they have barely kicked a ball together. |  | | |

Bent's comments really aren't that different from Bishop's comments about how he was treated. Keane's were made years and years after the event. That's two examples spanning a very long period of time, I'm not sure that really backs up your point. | |

You do you.
But speaking as someone who knows, don’t stick to a position you’re then upset having to defend or think it’s somehow unfair when people object. That’s your problem. | |

We have a few musicians on here who often promote their work. I think I even bunged a couple of quid in Callis' direction a few years back for one of his songs. Dubs has promoted is music shows a few times. I'm sure there are others. I've never seen any tut tutting in their direction.
TWTD is a family and it's always welcoming to see creative members showcase their work on here.
Obviously new posters who appear and start promoting unrelated stuff are frowned upon.
But it's the 'vanity project' line I'm taking issue with. Jow lives and breathes ITFC. Through the wonders of modern technology Joe is ale to engage hs passion with an audience. [Post edited 5 Dec 2021 22:29]

My racing previews for Cheltenham and Aintree in their PDFs get posted on here still amongst other places and 99.9% of the forum have been good as gold about them.
I don’t think it’s a bad thing to plug your passions. Not really one for podcasts but would certainly choose the BM one over Crunchers from the very very little I’ve seen. | |

I could’ve used any manager in the world to be fair. Was literally done with a 30 second google at the first two Town managers i could think of.
I think the broad point I was making is that a couple of players having an issue with cook doesn’t suggest he was a d**khead or that his treatment was unfair. Just that they didn’t agree with it. 99% of Cooks players seem to like him. A lot come back to play for him. Chaplin himself said he only came to Town for Cook (hopefully that wasn’t completely true or that’s going to be an issue i worry).
It’s just the world of football innit. | |

Again. That’s not elaborating. Being deleted aside you should be able to name them.
But you’re taking the vague path of not saying anything specific that happened and simply playing victim with wording.
And I loop you back to gaslighting. Because there you go again.
I should add, last time I said posts were removed you accused me of “not providing evidence to the collective, then Glassers accused me of misogyny whilst ironically screaming I’m div listed and hadn’t seen the post.
I own my actions, but if you can’t give a logical example and demonstrate the problem I’m not really into it. What do I gain from engaging with such crap? Not a lot.
IRONY METER. Or something. Lollers. | |

I think the issue is Cook came across as a d**khead towards the players in the press. The whole egocentric "demolition man" comment was unwarranted and unnecessary. It set up a them and us where Cook was with the fans against the players.
That's not to say he's acted like that elsewhere; as you say quite a few players like working with him. But something snapped within him towards the end of the last season and, in hindsight, it feels like he never found a sustained positive direction for the club. | |

The whole "demolition man" shtick and ending long associations with the club in a 30 second 'chat' isn't especially classy though. I get most people didn't care and were actually cheering him on but it didn't sit right with me. There's ways of conducting yourself when making and communicating tough decisions. | |

But things have been pleasant. I’ve had actual things in the real world to crack on with. Plus w’ve had some moments where communication breakthroughs have occured. | |

For those criticising Chambers over the last couple of years, I must have missed the bit where he to,d Paul Hurst to sell Waghorn and Garner. Furthermore can you imagine trying to motivate wrong ‘uns like Nolan, Jackson and Norwood? The first two in particular have spent 3 years walking around looking like they want to vomit while wearing our shirt. The epitome of “give me the cheque” lower League dross. |  | | |

But you were the one who bought her onto the board in the first place, by saying she was friends with Chambers’ missus.
Well done though for spending Sunday doubling down and then whining like a cheap hairdryer to Phil, knowing full well he’d pander to you. |  | | |
