I would like to thank all of you who gave me red cross's. I have achieved the mile stone of just over 1,000 as I type.
To those who chose to tell me why you disagree with me I sincerely say thank you again, as it is good to know why. Our views may differ but the end result for all is a victorious Mariners team now and in the future.
To those who did not choose to say why they disagreed with me, keeping their reasons to themselves not sharing with The Fishy members, I thank you as well. For it is your 100's of red cross's that made this achievement possible.
So to help to the next mile stone XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

I am just a teensy bit skeptical about our comments on here leading to a victorious team. Evidence would suggest otherwise.

I think its refreshing to read and take in some posts that are thinking outside the box so to speak, un like Hurst who never thinks outside the box and likes his chosen few to be in the box with him at all times ,, penalty box that is

Thank you for your concern PP, but their not. What I do really appreciate is a good debate on different views all of which want the same end result.

The subject should be Red Crosses, a completely superfluous apostrophe, so I gave you a red cross.

If it's red crosses for disagree and green ticks for agree there should be an option for those that don't really care either way. It's not very inclusive is it? It's 2021 after all.

I think that you will find that the majority of the red cross brigade on here are the posters who are unable to construct a sensible, well thought out and logical reply to the original post. People no longer seem to possess the ability to enter into discussion and argue their point in a well reasoned way, hence the red cross.

There is an option to turn them off. I usually get at least 1 red cross on every post I make, probably from the same person. I made somebody on here upset a few years ago and they've made it a goal to red cross every post I ever made since.

You see, I rest my case. I have attracted six numbnuts already in one afternoon. I posted during the day as I thought that all the children were back at school, obviously not !

Think you will find this only applies to the pro-Fenty brigade,mainly because there is no logical argument to support him.

So is it right that if you moan about red crosses you get some but if you say red crosses are ace you get some too? But if you say green ticks are good you'll get red crosses too? Maybe a green tick but not as many ticks as crosses? If you get loads of red crosses does that count towards post of the week? Or just the ticks? If so you're all girl privates, if not I love you all to bits.

Sorry if the red crosses has upset you DB. Dont worry about it. I get the impression your a nice enough type but a bit sensitive. In life so long as you try to come from a truthful place that's all that matters. No one is going to get it right all the time and sometimes the truth that's nearest to the mark is often the most unpopular.
Ive stated this before but the problem with typing views on the fishy its a bit artificial. People may be bold/brazen even rude yet in real life in a pub or a chat face to face on the terraces when people see you face to face its often all a different ball game.
Rio Ferdinand stated it as well in his book. You get people that bully others online "keyboard warriors" he calls them yet face to to face there sometimes a scrawny teenager who's still developing.

Feedback: I gave you a Red Cross because the plural of Red Cross is “Red Crosses”.

Some times things surprise you, pleasantly like the half offer from Golly for a pint of Guinness. What I refer to is, I believe the term is lateral thinking, the suggestion on another post.
It was stated that having a red cross was considered a badge of honour. What can I say I mean being honoured by over 1,100 red crosses, it's overwhelming. I didn't know how to cope, but as Golly regrettably failed to supply my Guinness I have had to make do with some red wine.
Cheers and thank you one and all for honouring me.

Or you could just get on with your life and not mention red crosses at least once a day, every day.
