Name calling is common on football forums, and if you feel it's justified calling Sir Alex every name under the sun, I'm sure you and your chronies don't object to other fans calling Houllier this and that on your own websites
As I said, it's just my opinion and observations - you're entitled to yours</strong><hr></blockquote>
Ok, i'm used to it anyway.
I'll try and stop calling him a drunken old tramp then.
If you're going to accept Liverpool fans on here you can't decide how they are to behave..
If you get rattled by calling Demento Demento etc then more fool you..its only a nickname just like many others in football pick up, you've even got your own GH smillie on here..who cares?

Course it doesn't...but then I reckon the majority of LFC fans on here can give and take when it comes to banter..
Whereas a lot of the Manc fans spit the dummy if you lot are criticised in any way....and then just go on about Heskey
Bizarre</strong><hr></blockquote>
Come on Davo, half of them feel they have to and you know it. That's why your threads go on for pages every time. It's not that your threads are actually that interesting mate

Maybe not your fault. Tho if you left there would be less.
At the end of the day Diego has to score. We can support him and go on about how good hs is at this or that but he was bought as a striker, we nicked him from Mddsboro and if had gone there and gone 18 games without scoring we'd all be taking the piss and saying how lucky we were not to have got him. I personally thing that once he scores his 1st goal he'll settle down and end with 10-15 for the season but he has to score soon or else he becomes a laughing stock and SAF's patience wont last forever. I hope he scores soon for his own sake as well as the team's as his confidence will soar and that can only be good and then the threads can be more rounded when discussing his abilities.
He was also scoring in the reserves, but we should ignore those too. And his fantastic goal scoring record for Independiente.
He's a young Uruguayan who's a bit awestruck at being at United, and has stage-fright. Admittedly this is a worrying attitude, but Alex is brilliant at making players feel settled, and getting them out to prove everyone wrong, and I'm sure this approach will work with Forlan - once his luck changes, his confidence will come back and he'll start doing for us what he did for his last club.

I defend Forlan the same way as you defend Heskey, you surely don't expect me to slag him of do you, I used a comparison in the hope that you could understand easier.
Never met a Uruguayan, by the way, but I wouldn't piss on a scouser if he was on fire.</strong><hr></blockquote>

Going round in circles now..
Forlan is ok because he doesn't score, unlike Heskey who does, who you think is shit..
Amazing

The difference btw is that Heskey spends his time on his arse, while Forlan has been linking up the play very well, playing creative passes, good touch, and showing signs that he'd be a good midfielder - you can hardly say that about Heskey.

The difference is that Heskey was bought to be producing immediately. Forlan isn't supposed to be a first choice striker.
Also, Forlan coming from a warm Argentina in the middle of the season means we must allow him to settle. Whereas Heskey was brought in from another Premiership side.
Oh, and also what Neil said.

Altho i'll admit to be fair that KT is a little less tolerant than here, but thats more to do with the people who run it, maybe they are too closed in themselves.
Lets not turn this into a KT vs RC thread eh?
Both you and Davo have some valid points, but what winds me up is the use of phrases such as 'Fergiscum, Ginsoak and Scum' often used by opposing fans on this site, that is out of order, if you post such language on KT you get tossed off. Let us all be a little more careful in the language we use, banter is fine, abuse is not called for.

Forlan is clearly your third choice striker, and all claims suggest that his overall play has been good..so it the weather only a factor when it comes to his, to date, appalling finishing?
Until he's played a full season, I don't know how anyone can judge.

If you give out stick you should be able to take it back..
and Forlan's shit....
You are shit..
Heskey is shit..
and Yes I am disappointed,but the truth is, Forlan is shit... and it is not the lack of goals, I just think he is not good enough and think also that we might have better players in the reserves and the youth teams, I am not impressed with his ability and the type of misses is just awful..I say this with sadness and I am sorry for the 7.5mil wasted.

Who in your opinion are the better strikers in the youth and reserve teams?
Davo, how many posts do you have on KT?
