Whits can you post up what the Board are sending you....I don't like the idea of you thinking your neck is on the chopping block.....we're a community here and an attack on one is an attack on all.....there will be a lot of very pissed off people if that is happening.

Maybe we should call them and tell them to stop posting utter shite on their own website.

I can't speak for Whits but I've also received phone calls and emails from the club regarding comments posted on here in recent weeks, which is why I posted the announcement on Wednesday.
This afternoon I received a phone call regarding this thread and was told that the Adver had chosen to remove the thread on their forum in order to protect themselves as some of the comments made by Peter Rowe could be potentially libellous.
Personally I've not found them to be particularly threatening but it's clear they're issuing a gentle warning.
Usually I'd balk at the thought of censoring people but for the sake of Whits, the site and individuals who post then it's a sad neccesity that people need to tread a little more carefully.

These comments by Rowe have been on MOS for years, without presumably causing any problems....I regard this as an attack on our community and call for direct retaliatory action if they continue,

I think it's more a case of nobody knows who is responsible for MOS as it's hosted by another site, whereas some people at the club are aware of who I am.

Dave Hanley has been running MOS for 5 or 6 years....he hasn't changed any features in that time! The Board know TEF is the most potent source of ideas and opinion forming, and so have chosen to attack us, in an effort to silence....what in the case of the Rowe stuff is already in the public domain. It may be coincidental, but the Board are currently trying to sweet talk some of the businesses in Swindon in search of a new sponsor....it can't help their cause when alarge percentage of the fan base has no confidence i them and might call for a boycott of the company.

Again it seems the club are just being hypocritics again, they name drop into almost every statement slagging off various people, I'm sure Peter will now get a mention in the next statement. Yet as soon as anyone fires anything back at them they just threaten them with this, that and the other.
If they decided to take legal action against any fan that would surely be the final nail in the coffin as I would envisage that the whole fanbase would be up in arms and it would then get really nasty
But oh well I can't be bothered with it, I'm just gonna shut up and let them go into meltdown

Im gonna stay silent for a change, but if the club want a fight...........bring it on. If they have to monitor forums to guage the opinions of fans, then it is a sad state of affairs.
