Is it just me...

[OOH! SHAUN TAYLOR]

I fear the club may come out of all of this in a few years with a bit too much credit...

Very good

So you'll be pleased when Mr Mundane is appointed new manager?

Did your stance apply only to this forum or the actual games as well?

Don't start again for fuck's sake!

My reply was in response to the post by Dalump- asking whether his stance on leaving the forum also applied to actual games as well

Jeez

[Not that Nice If I'm Honest]

No to be honest I left not because of the DiCanio appointment, because strangely the club don't really give a fuck about whether I'm a member of an unofficial online forum or not, I just stopped giving a fuck about how Swindon got on because of that.

I left here mainly because I didn't want to tallk to a lot of the people on here anymore. When he was appointed the members of this forum split into five camps:
- People like me who totally opposed the appointment and wanted nothing to do with the club while he was in charge
- People who weren't happy about it, but who couldn't bring themselves to ditch the club over it
- People who didn't care about politics at all for whom his politics just weren't relevant
- Enthusiasts for his politics - few and far between but there are one or two

I was fine with those people, but there was a last last group that annoyed me so fucking much I couldn't put up with being around them any longer.

Those were people that had always previously been pretty right on about things and had never put up with racist shit that  some people posted on here. They were people that I knew for absolute certain would have slagged off any other club in the country for appointing a self declared fascist, but because it was Swindon were prepared to tie themselves in all sorts of stupid knots to make it seem like it was alright.

I lost count of the number of people that, based on the skim reading of a page on wikipedia, started trotting out an argument that Italian fascism was nothing like Nazism, that it wasn't racist or anti-semetic, that there were Jewish members of the party etc. An argument that kind of glossed over the interning of the entire Italian Jewish population from 1940 onwards, and the fact that the Lazio ultras that PDC liked to run over and throw out his fascist salute to, regularly carry banners covered in swastikas and on one occassion had one reading "Auschwitz is your town, the ovens are your houses". Charming.

Anyway I couldn't really be doing with those people, and the people that really made me laugh on here, Ben, Mex and Yeo, had either left themselves or hardly ever logged on anymore. So I went too.

Any chance you could leave again ?

I might leave the forums because certain posters have returned and I don't want to be associated with an anti-fascist forum.

Though if I do, I will make a separate thread to announce my decision.

Don't do that just fuck off quietly like I did. It took a week before anyone noticed I'd gone.

It has all been a bit thisis on here in the past few weeks. Hopefully we're over the worst of it.
