Maybe people should have thought how Reg felt when they were quick to insult him? He may not be absent due to this but he took a lot of stick from what I read, simply because he offered a different perspective.

Agree with that arriba. Bordering on bullying at times.

Yep, by a lot of people who I really thought were better than that

He did. But he needed to as he didn't half tend to get singled out.

You see, I'll even argue against him and he is not here ;-) Reg is very quick to go pick something from the distant past, likely even have it ready knowing he is sparking said argument, and then present it as evidence against a person. He did it quite a bit to PV for example. I think if you take that style, you have to expect some prickly responses. I'd like a good debate with the chap - I'm honestly not sure if he is contrary for the sake of it or really does argue the positions he does at times, but it makes it interesting. I could be wrong, I think this forum serves a certain purpose for him, and during the current Covid inspired period it's just not floating his boat. He said as much on his brief return after the initial lockdowns.

I think we can all agree that my extended debate with him over why Port Vale was not, in fact, the smallest-town club in the league, either now or at its creation, will remain a highlight of the TEF when the records are compiled.
(There. That should flush him out.)

Different perspective or deliberately contrary? I think in the last couple of years I would go with the latter and he was getting steadily worse. I even had to put him on Ignore at one point, which I hate doing...he reminded me of this...
Edit: It goes without saying that I wish him well. I've said before that I'm sure I would enjoy his company if we were ever to meet...

Reg was often fishing for bites - he got bites. I have no sympathy for him in that regard.
It's a shame because he was alright when discussing other stuff and got involved with the non-football threads often. He had quite a lot of interesting stuff to contribute but he just seemed to like getting under peoples' skin and knew how to do so.

I agree that he regularly fished for responses.

I suspect that we are also overestimating the impact, if any, of this forum. Once I have logged out, I think nothing of it. I am sure that most of us are the same.
