Oh and Dreamer is 666 a really angry person with a seriously weak argument?

I dont think so but based on your statement I may be wrong as I dont have all the facts.

I have only been wrong once and thats because I thought I was wrong but I was wrong I was right!

Petty authoritarians aren’t man enough to challenge the actions of a person face to face; instead they incite a forum of rumour, innuendo and half truths, and impose rude sanctions to discourage those who dare question fairness.

If you are going to use my quote back at me at least don't add words for dramatic effect :wink:
I don't know "666", so I'm not sure if he (she) is an angry person. I can only assume that having watched what's happened to his (her) club over the last few years has made him (her) at least moderately miffed.

Are these fact, facts, poetic license facts, or facts that in fact aren't facts. :CURTAIN:

Can you answer the question that you ignored earlier?

I really don't want to get involved in a slanging match here. As I said earlier, members of Neils family are bound to get emotional when discussing such issues. Sometimes it needs an element of clinical detachment to see where the problem(s) lay. Neil believed in what he was doing, but in my opinion went about it the wrong way.

Dreamer you misunderstood it was humor. I used capitals, 666 used extra large bold capitals hence "really and seriously" merely expanding on your rhetoric. It seemed fair that you had a little fish on this minor point so I joined in. :D

Why did Cougars get insufficient return, big question and I can’t answer it and don’t want to I started this, once again to defend me and I apologise to my father for being drawn into defending him I should know better.

However could have just been too much for Neil and Colin, why they were so foolishly trying to manage it for people who wanted them out and after retirement age I do not know, I wouldn’t have done it.

Wait a minute love of the Keighley Cougars and rugby league.

Oh and let me ask a question 666, how many times was Neil Spencer a director of the club when it folded?

Incidentally, if you are new to internet forums there are two things you should bear in mind: using capitals ie "FACT" is the equivalent of shouting in the real world, using the word FACT (in capitals) is used by angry people with a weak argument.


Just for fun explain this sentence to me. Are you saying you find I am a fool who has no experience on internet forums, or are you giving advice that with the strong argument I have I should not spoil it by putting words in capitals, or are you saying that I have a weak argument and the capitals prove this and you believe I was aware of the way capitals are taken but thought you would point it out to me anyway to try and make me look foolish, or are you just saying I am a angry person with a weak argument. I get the feeling the being helpful option is off the table so it must be one of the more lets be nasty for nasties sake options. :wink:

At the time I read your first post you only had two or three posts to your name so I assumed you were a newbie.

I was trying to be helpful with a bit of humour thrown in but hey, take it anyway you want.

If you use the wider RLFANS site you will notice that when the word FACT is used in captitals it is taken with a pinch of salt by other users. Just typing FACT after a statement does not make it so.

I did read them previously and feel free to tell me if I have breached any of them. The link to another rugby league site may be a breach and i will remove it if you would like it is where then Pennine Rugby league lunatics vent themselves, I dont generally take advantage of the liberal atitude they have but neither am I offend by it.
