The phrase "The pot calling the kettle black" is an idiom used to accuse a person of being guilty of the very thing they are pointing out.

p.s. An idiom is a phrase whose meaning cannot be determined by the literal definition of the phrase itself, but refers instead to a figurative meaning that is known only through common use.

My guess is that some of the angry brigade who post on the quasi-MB after each story on the T&A site were going off on one? On or two on there are definite agents provocateur, and one on there (repeatedly banned from on here) makes ME's unhealthy obsession with blaming the coach for everything look like mild hero-worship in comparison.

More pots and kettles.

To be honest, I'm with Bullseye on this. As long as the postings are reasonable and relatively responsible, that's fine by me and I am happy to engage with it on this board in public - or by PM.... I guess you live in hope it might eventually tread the road to Damascus - but even if not, as long as it acts reasonably and contributes to the discussion then it has every right to post on here IMO.

Do I just not pay attention enough or am I being stupid? I have no idea who you're all on about.
