I won't be posting anything on here again. I've been accused of being a Norwich fan (I'm not) being on drugs (I'm not) being on my period (I'm not) I've supported Town since 1978 when I was just 8 years old. I've been up and down the country through thick and thin. My views are my own, yes I believe o'shea is awful, yes I believe that the instruction to play out from the back even though our defenders don't have the ability to do so is wrong. I think Kieran Mckenna is a lovely guy whose heart is in the right place but I also believe that egeli and philogene would benifit from getting the ball played to them earlier rather than waiting until two or three defenders are marking them. I can't support another team, Ipswich are part of me. The happy clappers can carry on defending results like tonight's. Good luck.

The sad thing is, Phil and Gav really shouldn't need to spend time on that sort of internet troll policing. If only adults could behave like adults, etc.

Wiping this thread from my mind (which has descended a bit and is none of our finest hours, too many trodden toes!), I think you've been a worthy contributor on here spud. I did think you were blueas on good behaviour but that's incidental. More football less general is my motto to safe passage on here.


Thank you, appreciate it.

To be honest it’s just a bit annoying to be told I’m not a new poster, to be told I’m a returning banned poster (absolutely nothing of the sort). On Friday I was told I’m a Norwich supporter (again, wrong). Just a bit frustrating tbh but I appreciate your comment.

Does sound a tad irritating! I'm a much older poster than Smoresy but I've never been in trouble with the law, never made firm friends or foes, just stare straight ahead with my blinkers on. I used to drop a username when the upvotes got too heavy to carry you know but Gav's stopped keeping score now thankfully. Good luck in your journey spud.

This is hilarious.

TFS wrote "Please list these people who don't post because of me. Or is it all in your head?" to OrfordBouy.

Since TFS was inaccurately doubting OB's word, I simply verified what OB was saying. Cue TFS then telling me I was "making it all up". Cue me then getting serially downvoted by my stalker of around 10 years.

Another poster then writes a joke post, which I added to with the kind of "small willy" joke that's been tossed around (sorry) since the dawn of the internet + probably 100 years before that too, & which as far as I'm aware, has never been taken by anybody as anything other than a joke or joshing around. Except for 3 guys on here.

Yes I laughed at those downvotes, I found it funny that those other two (I've never come across you before unless you're MMH's twin bro) dish it out willy-nilly (sorry again), but just can't hack it when you get some back.

Too funny.


"my stalker of around 10 years"

You know this isn't true, in fact we've had many pleasant exchanges over the last 10 years, and I've actually uparrowed you countless times.

You haven't "verified" anything. You've provided no evidence whatsoever. Neither you nor OrfordBouy has provided a single name, or even shrouded details, of anyone who doesn't post on here because of me.

The irony that you've spent a good chunk of your Sunday having a pop at various posters and calling them "quite pathetic creatures" probably isn't lost on most readers.

It's quite sad to read your posting of yesterday and I genuinely hope you're ok.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Apologies. I read "Cue TFS then telling me I was making it all up, cue me then getting serially downvoted by my stalker of around 10 years" as being the same person, but can now see it could refer to someone else. My bad.

You can defend yourself of course but there's no need for the many petty digs you've made in this thread and your retelling of the thread tried to recast them as something they clearly weren't.

Yes, I posted bantz, but far worse gets posted on here on a daily basis & goes by without people taking any notice, let alone pulling the author up for it.

I agree the 'creatures' comment was ott & I apologise for that, but when you've had the same people jumping on you for years, there comes a point at which you react emotionally. How many threads have there been over the years supporting mental health, with people saying "remember there's a human behind the keyboard"? - which theory is always happily upvoted, but which seems to be forgotten about or ignored when it comes to individuals.

I particularly resent having my word doubted; I haven't said anything that wasn't true (bantz aside, obviously).

I'm glad I'm not the only person who has noticed this. For well over a decade this particular poster has been down arrowing everything Ryory has posted, and aimed some very unpleasant language in her direction.

Maybe practice what you preach then. You've joined this thread offering support for a comment saying people have no life or friends, you've questioned the vibrancy of people's sex life and called people "pathetic creatures". For someone who resents having their word doubted you've also done exactly that to me.

FWIW I'm sure you're a nice person IRL, but to present how you have on this thread and then talk of 'being kind' and mental health smacks of hypocrisy.

....she's had the usual 3 people piling into her on this thread, plus the "new poster".

Not sure what their obsession is with her.

I don't really see what she does any different to many other posters to merit it.

It can't just be because she's female, can it?

I'm not piling in to anyone, I call a spade a spade.

I wasn't even aware Ryorry was female and it's certainly nothing personal. They can downvote all they like, but rather than burying ones head in the sand and calling foul play I would've thought they might want to reflect on their own conduct and consider how it might come across to others.

FWIW I have no issue with anyone, I'm just saying it as I see it.

Not sure why you're not getting that they were jokes. And as I said, far worse gets posted on here almost daily without getting noticed, let alone jumped on.

I already apologised for the "creatures" comment & explained why I posted it. Why are you ignoring that?

I don't remember doubting your word (other than posting bantz as I said), where did I do that? FWIW I'd previously upvoted & supported you on other threads.

You went along with the idea that I'm some sort of long term poster (presumably with a vendetta) when it was put to you and expressed surprise that the penny hadn't dropped to you previously.

"and expressed surprise that the penny hadn't dropped to you previously"

That was specifically NOT directed at you, was just a general reference about a tiny minority, though I can see that it wasn't well written & could easily have been misconstrued. But I did say to you in a later post "I found it funny that those other two (I've never come across you before unless you're MMH's twin bro)" ...

I actually didn't know who you were from Adam - I had privately hazarded a guess that you might be a particular returnee, but then decided you weren't when you had a go at me, as he & I had got along quite well in recent years.

Nope, no returnee.

Anyway no hard feelings.
