Oh well done, you are the sad p.rick you come across as being... and you have diagnosed us with learning disabilities...???

The fact you know his family is worse, surely you realise what the guy has been subjected to in his lifetime by morons thinking it's funny to take the urine...

Of course I didn''t really expect you to explain your reasons for starting the thread, which is one of the most pointless ever on this site and the reason I didn't expect you to explain it is because there can be no reasonable explanation...

Anyway you have plenty of issues yourself and I suggest until you sort your own inadequacies out you would be better not pointing out other people's...



will you stop overreacting?! You take things way too seriously...

Graham. Wow, there is a blast from the past for me. My sister used to be a teacher at Queens Street and Graham was one of her pupils. But really I remember him from a few years before when my uncle Fred was the groundsman at Blundell Park. Graham, known to Fred as Herbert, was a permanant fixture at BP then (he probably still is) and used to love his bit of banter with Fred.

Now, I don't know the OP (nor anyone else on here it seems), but I do think that the last person to get upset by the original comments would be Graham. His misprounouncing of team names was always one of those comically, endearing qualities and, together with the blue patch in his brown trousers, is one of the things that sprang to mind as soon as I started reading the post and thinking back to those days.......[drifts nostalgically back to the late 70s] ....oh to be a 4th division (and heading upwards) side again....


There's a crooked street in Grimsby Town
It's a well worn path I've travelled down
Now there's ruin in my name, I wish i'd never got off the train
And I wish I'd listened to the words you said....
...Don't go down to Freeman Street
Don't go down to Freeman Street
You'll be lost and never found
You can never turn around
Don't go down to Freeman Street

I've stayed out of this thread until now but this sums up the way I feel.

Those who know Pseudo KNOW he has a good relationship with Graham and didn't mean to offend anyone by his OP. Even I know that and I don't know either of them.

Now, the reason I asked Terry to post a small apology was for the fact that some people had already said they were angry at the original post (Old Codger and VOR to name the first 2) For Pseudo to then announce that he wasn't going to apologise to the "moronic element" of the site is plain arrogant.

Terry, you have offended people with the OP, unintentionally, I agree, but they are offended nonetheless. If you can't see that then your arrogance astounds me.

I apologised unreservedley for the "it must be like herding cats" quip that you're dragging up, despite nobody actually stating their offence. One poster PM'd me and stated that "the members of the travel club are not cats, but human being Town fans," and took "umbrance" (I assume he meant "Umbrage" but I digress,) to the quip. So, as I eventually agreed, after explaining it was not a literal statement, it was a quip, a figure of speech, a metaphor, I apologised to anyone that WAS offended and I managed to do so without actually calling anyone a moron or a saddo.

Once again, to make crystal clear, I KNOW you didn't mean to offend anyone with the OP Terry, but the FACT remains that people WERE offended by it. If you can't see to apologise for that then I suggest you don't post anything quite as contentious in the future.
