The very reason why BLM left this site alone is the constant berating of his son . I like Both Kershaw and Jordy and was hoping when MC alluded to offering a core set of players financial stability going forwards in the form of a duel contract that these two along with max would be the first names on the sheet to both stabilise and move forwards as a club

Was his dad only here for the gushing praise then, was it OK for people to comment on Jordy if it was positive but not if they were less than?

His sons a grown man and a professional sportsman, if he couldn't hack the criticism then it’s best that he left isn’t it.

Bizarrely not okay for the other one who has suddenly reappeared when I was critical of his 'world class' played a dozen games for 50 clubs. You always speak highly of young players, generally that play for Huddersfield on both this and the other forum, yet don't see what JC offers this club. Effort and attitude alone, puts him in the top 3 currently here. And before that other moron turns up SP. Yes we know, at the moment that isn't difficult, blah blah.
Top and bottom of it is, players like JC is who we build this club around, if the board haven't even made an offer, then they deserve everything thrown at them!

No , but he wasn’t on here to listen to his son get all the abuse he got either . Have worked with BLM down the pit and he’s no shrinking violet believe me , but personal abuse hiding behind a false name is really big and tough . I’m sure BLM I is his sons biggest critic , but you have to draw the line when it gets personal . Just like the abuse proctor is getting From a small minority of the crowd who constantly shout profanity at him when stood behind the sticks . , it’s not acceptable in the work place so why should it be anywhere else.

Just makes the point that thsse are real people.
Why people feel the need to criticise people the way they do is beyond me.
You would never do it in real life, why people think it's OK on the Internet is simply because they think anonymity gives them some protection......but to me, its nothing more than cowardly.

While I agree I must say I haven’t seen any abuse on here aimed at Crowther. Certainly not for his attitude and effort.

More the criticism has been of his game/ability as a player. Obviously if there’s been any personal abuse I may not have seen it and that’s wrong.

If I was a parent of a player I honestly don’t think I would be on a forum or want to read any social media that relates.

What an awful post, just no need.

Thats not really called for avenger. I personally stay clear of criticism of players, they pull the shirt on, put their bodies on the line and have reached a level that I could only dream of during my youth playing days.
I know it's shooting season at the moment but he remains blm son and for me gave his all on the field.
However criticism aimed at non active chairmen and ceos is fine in my book,

I’ve never spoken harshly about Jordan, I’ve justifiably criticised certain incidences when the evidence has been clear to see but it’s never been personal or out of order. I’ll take an average player who puts his heart and soul into a game over a talented player who can’t be arsed everytime
My point is that all players have families and they’ve always had to sit in a stand with someone being overly critical and accept that it’s part and parcel of it all, good and bad. You can’t just lap up the compliments and take your bat and ball home when you hear something critical.

That kind of abuse, well, ‘‘twas ever thus!
I haven’t ever heard or read any comments that are in that category but that isn’t to say they haven’t happened!
