The guy's reaction fully justifies Clive's posts. Clive had him sussed from the start. A small bit if ribbing and he was straight onto Wikipedia, faster than a Russian agent looking for facts about Salisbury, to get some weak stats about top flight years and hurl abuse at our beloved and superior club.
A small bit of ribbing it wasn't. Over the past two years our club has had to take plenty of **** and condescending ******** off clubs that have won a lot less than us because we dared to get promoted to the Premier League. Our clubs are of a similar size and I came here to ask for help and was treated with a barrage of abuse off the local knobhead. I asked what trophies you had won in your history? You can't answer it.
Can't wait for Clive's Christmas greeting to the working classes of the world. Morris, if you're still reading, this forum specialises in irony, parody and in-jokes, apart from the Brexit threads which are where we let loose viciousness and hatred. Please read some of the other threads and you'll see what I mean.
Absolute classic. I hope this one is included in the Forum 10 Volume Box Set that they will be selling in the Hornet's Shop in the run up to Christmas. Much better by the bedside table as a read after a few beers before lights out than Tales From the Vicarage ... might even sell a few in the HTAFCMegastore ...
I believe the disunity caused by this thread seeped into the teams psyche on Saturday. Morris has completely derailed our season. Invade Huddersfield I say.
I believe EU laws do not allow such filtering. Once Brexit has concluded and we are out and in charge of our own destiny we will be able to filter out anything we want.
I hope you are still reading this stuff, Morris. You can see that Clive was apparently being funny. Never mind that 99% of the World's population would think it was just plain nasty. This is because we are members of a very superior style of football forum. We are not biased, obviously. We strive to out-do each other with quips, in-jokes, literary references, grammatical correctness etc, etc; and we generally assert our superiority complexes whenever we can. We also squabble like children. It is our divine right, therefore, that our humour goes right over the heads of mere opposition-supporters. And we also have exclusive rights to mock members of other forums for all the things of which we are ourselves guilty. "Southern w*****s", did I imagine you muttering under your breath? Can't say I blame you.
There should be a stop after each iteration of etc. Also, no need for the hyphen between ‘opposition’ and ‘supporters ‘.
That's just the base of the pyramid. Regional & national level knobheadery lead to the holy grail of Global ****.
Well said, Forza. Morris, the other characteristic common to several of our senior members is indifference to football. If you fancy signing up as a perm, we have a vacancy as 'OodersOrn'.
With my innate sense of natural superiority I naturally assume you are using 'egregious' in its original, archaic sense. In which case, sir, I thank you.
The cheese! Oh, God, I forgot the cheese. I wonder if, since he comes from Huddersfield*, he sounds like Peter Sallis. In which case it is probably a 'nice bit of Wensleydale'. * Nobody outside of Huddersfield is a supporter. They are the negative or anti-matter of Man U.
Do you think 'knobheadery' has reached the level of the Kremlin, yet? Or was it invented and refined there?
I agonized for a long two or three seconds over this. I used it to emphasize the nature of the words as a compound noun. I wonder if you could cut me a little slack there; I should hate to be cast onto the bonfire of the illiterates.
Syntax is subjective & fluid. Given this, dare I suggest that, if someone has considered the composition of the sentence, they are, by definition, right?
