Just wondering, if like me, any of you wonder if its time for The Fishy to be split into two rooms ? As a result of the latest Racist/Homophobic thread to have now stretched to 24 pages of mind numbing dullness maybe we could make the following alterations. Room 1/ Only available to self loathing liberals in order that they could discuss today's hot topics such as, should we take the knee ? Who said what to who and who was offended by it, Who's come out as a Gambian Tree Frog, Who is today self identifying as a Bi-sexual biscuit barrel etc etc, you get my drift. This room could be a bit like Twitter on steroids ! Room 2/ Only available to football fans looking to discuss the daily/weekly events at Blundell Park. A safe space where you are free to enjoy light hearted banter with other football fans without the threat of being cancelled by someone. Please let me know your thoughts. If you are unsure of your room, I'm happy to read your previous posts and allocate a room to you. No need to thank me,

Typical of a non PC twit. Surely it should be split into 47.3 rooms. . 1 for each gender đ

| The wife was going away for a girly weekend. I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football'  |

Tweet 1455581910848184332 will appear here... We exist to be a place where every Mariner belongs.
Belonging gives identity and meaning to our lives. It defines who we are, and offers us a sense of place, purpose and comfort.
We'll never lose sight of what the 'C' stands for in GTFC. We'll always appreciate what a club should be, and what it has the power to do.
We'll create companionships, friendships and relationships that have the potential to last a lifetime.
We recognise the differences in all of us - but as a football family, our roots will always remain as one.
We'll create a place where people feel accepted and connected, wherever they are in the world.
Every Mariner will always have us to call 'home'. Absolutely delighted that the club are no longer entertaining the bigots and telling them in no uncertain terms that they are not welcome.

As a result of the latest Racist/Homophobic thread to have now stretched to 24 pages of mind numbing dullness maybe we could make the following alterations.24 mind numbing pages, yet you think the best way to solve this problem is to create another thread on the subject? Why? So we can see how hilarious and brave you are. I canât wait. Room 1/ Only available to self loathing liberals in order that they could discuss today's hot topics such as, should we take the knee ? Who said what to who and who was offended by it, Who's come out as a Gambian Tree Frog, Who is today self identifying as a Bi-sexual biscuit barrel etc etc, you get my drift. This room could be a bit like Twitter on steroids ! Ah there we are ⌠people who donât agree with your views are âself loathing liberalsâ the old trope that theyâre looking to be offended by anything. Somewhat ironic when youâre clearly offended by their offence and have created this thread in order to offend those who have offended you by being offended by something you think they shouldnât be offended by. Itâs a never ending circle of people getting offended by people here. But not you, you donât get offended. Thatâs for snowflakes isnât it?
For clarity you donât have to be a self loathing liberal to understand that discrimination, be it because of race, sexual orientation, gender or (hilariously) if someone wants to be a Gambian tree frog is wrong and it will always be wrong. Room 2/ Only available to football fans looking to discuss the daily/weekly events at Blundell Park. A safe space where you are free to enjoy light hearted banter with other football fans without the threat of being cancelled by someone. Yes a room where you can spout racist and homophobic views disguised as âlight hearted banterâ That sounds like a fun place for everyone doesnât it? Expressing these views isnât banter itâs hate speech and in some cases itâs illegal. Look, if youâre that much of a dinosaur that you hold those views thatâs up to you. Me, or anyone else on the internet or anyone else wonât get you to change them. But, youâve been told by the law and by the club that you canât express them. It isnât cancelling you itâs just being part of a civilised and inclusive society. Please let me know your thoughts.I just have If you are unsure of your room, I'm happy to read your previous posts and allocate a room to you.allocating someone a âroomâ for their views so you donât see them sounds a little like cancel culture to me, I thought you were against that? No need to thank me, I wonât

To paraphrase a former member of GTFC staff: if you donât like it you could always make your own forum?

I would not be too delighted if I was you. The definition of a bigot is "a person who obstinately or intolerantly is devoted to his own opinions and prejudices" which sums you up to a tee. What else might you do on a Saturday afternoon?

Complains about inflammatory non football threads. Starts with a derogatory, devisive comment and therefore start another inflammatory non football thread. I completely agree with keeping politics off the football thread but its difficult to that when people are saying stupid things at the match.
