To be fair it is a legitimate query. If it comes from someone who knows SB well then I would be concerned, if it is a bloke (or woman) whose uncle’s dog groomers wife read it on Redvee I would be less concerned.
Not asking for names, just judging whether I should be concerned or if its just a “pearl clutching” exercise.

And it’s fair if it is a legitimate query, but he makes it personal. He never posts giving an opposing opinion he as a go at the poster has Wires71 said.

People are allowed to post what they want whether it be true or as you say pearl clutching. Said it once I don’t post saying it’s true unless I really do know but tbh I leave that to Abe since most trust him.

Well every day is a school day as I've learned that "pearl clutching" is actually a thing. I must admit that when I first read it my mind boggled to the point where I actually winced whilst going into defensive cover mode thinking of possible Lineham-esque attention

I had to check what it was too.

Are you & Wires71 the same person ? You do seem a bit similar & both a bit super sensitive about criticism of your views but splash it about regarding players' abilities & livelihood.

Firstly no we are not and secondly who are you to talk about sensitivity. Any comment made or here you don’t like you attack the poster. Just me and Wires71 won’t let you get away with it.

Starting to feel I’m going around in circles here but if you came on and gave an opposing opinion to any post you disagreed with then fine but you don’t. And it’s obvious you don’t like it when we have a go back at you. YOU are the only poster we have this with. God help when the season starts again and we critique any players, maybe you should go lay down in a dark room for awhile.

We are the same in that we will always call out your continual attempts at supressing opinions you don't like.

This is the Warrington Wolves RL Fans forum - of course everyone is going to express personal opinions on player abilities and contract extensions (livelihoods if you will).

Criticise my views as much as you like - play the ball and not the man. But, in my opinion, the position of "don't post negatives as his mum may be reading" (yes you did urge this) is indefensible.

I just don't get this entitlement of yours (perhaps you are a millennial or Gen Z?) which gives you the impression you have the right to tell people what they can and cannot post when you are triggered. We have an Acceptable Use Policy for that which is set by the admins - not me, not Karetaker, and not you.

He was accusing Karetaker of deliberately spreading fake news. That's not a query, it's an accusation. Karetaker was just passing on what he heard, he never vouched for it. It's offered "as is" as a rumour and these boards are full of them.

I didn't see the agitator jumping down the throat of the author of the "Vaughan to Leigh" rumour or any of the others we get. It's a personal vendetta with him/her/them.

Sorry missed that one about Vaughan to Leigh or the Williams to Swinton one.
