Come on man, don't be such a baby, it's just banter and you keep making yourself an easy target! ;)

Stay with us, let's cheer together all the way to the title.

Blythy will even change your name to something you like.

Anyone else agree? :D
 
No, he's pretending to be an United supporter. If you can't see that your blind!

I don't think so. I think the confusion has more to do with him being a bit weird than anything else (where have you seen a sensitive WUM?).
 
Substitute "appreciation" with "depreciation" and you might be onto a winner here Antohan.
 
So you expect this geezer to show up in the General Forum? Not a chance. The point is, if he happens to show up ("invisible" of course <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" /> ) he will get to actually read it.

It's quite funny how many protested we've been unfair with him and now don't show up in here.

I think he got what he was -unknowingly- asking for. But I do feel a bit sad for the guy and will certainly miss his gibberish.

It wasn't deserved but he earnt it :confused: I mean, if you complain about someone calling you something you can only ever expect to get everyone to call you that!

It's not nice I know but he kept digging his own grave.

If he'd been a Brit I'd go along with that. But I think he just came here to discuss football. He didn't know it's an asylum and wasn't familiar with our type of humour.

I'll agreed, me think he's over sensitive!

Because he construed that as a racist taunt (given the association between Thailand and ladyboys) while a Brit wouldn't?

I agree he has mood swings and is too hormonal at times but we did pick on that, which was fun but clearly not for him.

feck it, I'm fighting a losing battle here <img src="graemlins/lol.gif" border="0" alt="[Laugh Out Loud]" />

Then he shouldn't be pricky about those nickname isn't it? ladyboy refers to thai girl/boy lifestyle and furthermore he ain't thai!

Sensitive in that he took a lot of things too seriously and what started as banter became too personal - he couldn't understand that just about everyone on here gets abuse, and that most of the time it isn't serious.

If you don't grasp that it's the way of the Caf, then it would be hard to take, especially as a newcomer.

It might have been easier if there were a few amenable comments going his way, but I don't think we were particularly welcoming. And whilst some of his posts were critical, a lot were very positive.

his comments were doom and gloom, during our bad period... and they changed virtually overnight!!


He knows now, that this place, can be a piss take.. so my, advice to him, is get back, and stop acting like a lickle baby.....

maybe you could mother him, liv ....:wink:

I agree. At least 75% was deserved ;)
 
If he can't stand the Heat, he's right to get out of the fire. Give me some grief instead, i'm a Man, not a boy. ;)

He was naive...didn't realise he was just making things worse for himself every time he posted. And yes, he was a bit doom and gloom (but haven't we all been guilty of that at times this season?). And he is a bit sensitive.

But if those are the worse things you can say about him, did he really deserve all the grief we gave him?

Personally, I hope he comes back and realises that it was never personal.

A boring version of Itchy ain't he? He posts rubbish and you can't take the piss because he simply doesn't even know why he said it.

I seem to remember him saying he was 22. Had supported United for ten years so only knew the glory days. This might explain his panic about our poor start but last year was worse.

Two successive years without winning the premiership would be our worst run during his period of support. Times have changed since the 26 years and scousers winning everything.
