99% agree with you there Hunted.
But when i read things last week about Joe Rice having to phone JMac on a Sunday evening at his home number because there was a rumour going about his Dad had died then you start to realise people can write things online that can have a real effect on peoples private life,no matter how short term.
So whilst i am all for free speech and things like Donkey pics of Brian Graham don't personally bother me at all (though i don't agree with it),there are certain things being written on Forums and on Twitter/Facebook that are completely OTT and potentially pretty hurtful tbh.
Never knew that. Fuck sake. Some folk have fucking lost the plot.
I only want to speak about United, music and a wee bit of politics whilst making a general pain in the arse of myself

see the shite that was flung at Brian Graham was a continuation of the pish that Jon Daly had and willo flood tae..you seen them getting interviewed on arabzone and it looked like they didn't want to be here..then they left...its happened with others, and regardless of your opinion on a player, or the internet and forums. thats wrong...its shouldn't begin to affect the club..no danger
people who gave certain players shite online had the same players eventually leaving and their family venting anger at the same people
you canna tell me thats right...its fucking horrendous imho

I didn't have a problem with the dpnkey photos, tbh. Folk overreacted to fuck with that. I may be a bit biased because I get on well with Eastie, mind.

wasn't so much the donkey pics, it was the abuse he was getting at the same time and the amount of turkeys thinking it was clever imo...after he'd played about SIX games ffs

The Brian Graham abuse was OTT.
Tell you what i wouldnae mind him in our squad the now.
We rely far far to much on a guy who we forget is only what 22 years old?(Nadir)

You could list a lot of players who have been written off early doors by fans.

ps Anier is now getting it and a teenage Spittal has been put down like a dead dug tae...good to see the young lad starting to prove people wrong...

Indeed. I've probably been too quick to write off Blair Spittal when he's just a kid.

imho no cunt, deserves to get any abuse, from anycunt if they try and look like they care...NO cunt
the above three...however bad they might or might not have been tried..fucking hard...that, imho gives them a pass...
its those with a fucking attitude that are open to whatever..those that dont try..dont care..they can fuck off

Graham and Jackie clearly fell out because Graham felt Jackie passed over him in favour of Mario Bilate. That worked out well eh...

That's a big part of a fitba message board though.
Being able to give your opinion on players (even if they're negative).
Would be a bit boring if everything was 100% positive all the time when things were anything but.
It does dismay me a wee bit when people write off youngsters like Spittal and Souttar when they are just kids still.
But imo internationalists like Anier with his experience are fair game.Though any criticism i give on players i would hope would be constructive rather than reactionary.
Though after a few beers at the weekend i probably don't always stick to that philosophy 100% all the time
p.s. i always liked Spittal,so i clearly know my fitba.

dinna mind someone saying they dinna fancy a player TEK...or they dinna rate them..or they wouldn't start them....but to say 'GET HIM TO FUCK, HE'S A FUCKING WAGE THEIF, FUCKING SHITE, FUCKING DONKEY...etc...weeee but different mate...its the difference between good and bad debate
OR..if the player doesn't give a fuck...then stop giving a fuck about him..there's no many of them tbf

They are still going at-it over there btw. A certain mod really doesn't like to lose an argument does he? Jesus, talk about a dog with a bone.

I've always appreciated what Spittal brings, and have given him high praise - best first touch at the club and his passing is solid.
Said it for a few weeks, think he could play centre mid. Doesn't look the trickiest for a winger.

As i say i would always hope any criticism of players,Management,Chairman,Groundsman would be constructive and maybe even with a wee bit of knowledge to the opinion (like what the poster would do to improve things),rather than reactionary drunk Saturday night wind-baggery.
Thankfully the lads on here all seem to consider their thoughts quite well.Apart fae me that is after a few ales
Some like Seggy and Bugsy are 100% positive all the time (and fair play to them for that partisan support tbh).

I do enjoy the banter on here and was delighted when TEK Towers opened it's door as i was a long time viewer on Mad and posted a couple of times but didn't feel like anyone took me on and it was the same boys always dominating the threads.
Pretty measured debates on here and boys that seem to think about things before just spewing out any old shite.
Keep up the good work laddies!!!

on spittal i want him to go out on loan for a few month maybe a season to get regular games i think he has been thrown in and it may fuck him up for the future which id rather not see happen to him. maybe 6 month spell down the lower leagues would do him good playing every week who knows.
TEK/Stobie can you not make this board private to view so that users need to log in to view it?
I think through time utd mad will crumble its full of imposters you dont know who is utd fans or people out on a wind up.

Spoke to tek about locking it before and both agreed it should be left to fellow arabs to blether and act adult about our club and other shit....if people start acting the puss they'll get binned..we're both on here daily so I'm sure it would get nipped in the bud...we have a good idea who joins
