Comments on the official ETFC site.

[Gazza]

So will we have as big an investigation & request for apologys to the referee's & their families for the abuse they take week in week out by certain Town faithful?

 

[Sponsor of Beer]

Not at all. That's not personal to the level of the comments on Saturday, and its certainly not from one member to and about others.

Exactly, well said Duke.

Also as the Town is owned by the fans lets hope the powers that be listen to the fans & get the web site altered asap!

Don't think that will be done ASAP as the webmaster is having problems with his server again.

Agree with you except for the "not personal to the level of comments on saturday" have you not heard some of the abuse the refs get? that truly is outrageous.

[Sponsor of Beer]

And probably by the same people!

 

But I do make a further exception to 'member on member' comments.

[Gazza]

I see the website has been updated this afternoon but Saturdays comments not edited, very disapointing.

 

Also the question of who's words they are still remain a mystery, also disapointing, why hide behind a pen? how bizarre.

[MbrunoB]

I thought we all knew who the web master was?

[Gazza]

Yes but are they his words or words given to him?

[MbrunoB]

"On a personal note" are the first words of the paragraph.

[Southport - TOWNER]

Lets be clear the comments were that Brain is picked because his dad is the coach, what is so personal about that?

 

In my opion it is true, get over it

I refer the honourable gentleman to the comment I made earlier!

[andyetfc]

What's the difference between a personal note and a personal comment?

Its surely unacceptable because of the impact that it had on other members of Bryan's family (who are also memebsr of ETFC). You wouldn't allow anybody into make those kind of comments to you at your place of work or aimed at your family, nor would you be prepared to make them to Bryan's face. That's why you are a hypocrite, in my book.

[Southport - TOWNER]

Actually I don't care about your book

 

You obviously have a problem as you seem to be some self appointed authority, which I wasn't aware you were, maybe you can enlighten us all?

 

as an official of the club I am amazed that you can make such derogatory comments on the forum

 

BTW it is not his place of work, we are not his employer.

 

And I believe he was on the pitch when I made those comments, so I am sure his face must have been there too!

 

 

and finally I was not the only one making similar comments, but at least I am not hiding what I think.

So, would you allow anybody into your place of work to make unlimited/unrestrained comments about your family & your ability to do your job?

[Southport - TOWNER]

would u

That is really rich, as I was reminded by someone 2 day, you threaten physical violence against a supporter, on Saturday is that how you manage people at work? just bully them because you are older and think you always know what is best?

Grow up and act like a responsible adult

Well its now Wednesday & still we have another twist to the whole drawn out soap opera!

Interesting that you never mentioned this confontation though SoB, more worrying however is that I missed all that as well & was only a few feet from it, I must have been transfixed to the "total football" on the pitch!!!

An absolutely ridiculous comparison. If someone wants to pay me in order to come to work with me and pass comment on my performance then they are more than welcome to do so.

Brian has been playing for long enough to know what football fans are like. He must have known that there would be more pressure on him to perform given his father's role. I'm sure he'll survive. And afterall, as they say - if you can't stand the heat...
