Thanks to someone for sending me the obsessive tweets :) He really should find the "Football" tab on here. And really Chief Woke? We know that is Dolly... |  | | |  |

Apparently i'm Chief Woke or something on here on 13:22 - Jan 5 with 2602 views | FightingEssex | Well you do constantly contribute almost exclusively socialist political topics to what is a football forum, it’s going to upset a few given I’d say your views are almost polar opposite of what most of the fan base has, I am not saying that’s wrong or I disagree with what you and a lot of the others say, but if you talk to the average Town fan on their views on a lot of this stuff and it’s easy to see why Ipswich and surrounding areas backed Brexit, Tom Hunt and Will Quince, and so on. You are going to upset people with those views. The difficulty this forum has is what balance of these political posts vs football is actually turning people away, especially when they get nasty and personal. Town fans have noticed it and many stay away because of those posts. |  |

I’ll have to take issue with this with you. It’s not 52% of the population but rather 52% of the people who voted in the referendum. |  | |  |

Grizly socialist? Not everything to the left of the rabid right is socialist. This forum has never been a "football forum". It's a forum for ITFC fans (and a couple of Stockholm syndrome sufferers) to discuss football, life, the universe and everything and always has been. Sounds a bit snowflaky to me. |  | |  |

It's the new 'do-gooder'. People who want to do good and try to understand others are clearly the problem with our society. |  |

A fundamental misunderstanding of what TWTD is and has always been about. If people can't handle views outside of just football their is an option for them not to see them. It would be a pity though as they would be missing a lot of good content. Also, not all town fans live in Ipswich or Suffolk so citing those areas as an examples of views that may be more tolerated on the forum by fans isn't really accurate. SB |  |

No response. Then someone else chimed in to say some of the message board regulars were worse than paedophiles. What the hell is wrong with people? |  |

It's a forum on football and clearly other topics too. I post about football a lot too, but tend to join in rather than start those ones. My views are what they are. I'm not trying to change anyone's minds, just enjoying what is (normally) a very civil debate. If that upsets people, then I'm not sure that is my problem. Don't click on the post? |  | |  |

The good thing about TWTD be it on the forum or indeed the news comments is that the standard of comments is quite good. Views are challenged, accepted and there seems to be a lot of respect on this board as a whole. The FB groups are awful. I was on one but had to quit as it was just dreadful. I know sometimes its the same on here but at least most threads end up in punning sessions. |  | |  |
