It?s goodbye from me

[Albionic68]

Glad to read you had a good weekend Omeg. I don't think you need worry about the arguments on here wearing a bit thin. The amount of remainers is wearing thinner by the day.

There's a certain irony in there somewhere given the age and voting demographic of the site, especially given one who has apparently never ever voted in his life now appears to have voted with his online feet.

Oh well, look on the bright side. At this rate you'll be able to pursue your second career as an online blogger without any fear of interruption. Apart from me of course, Interruption is my middle name 😃.

It's The Prophesy. It's getting very Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe around here. Turn your back for a minute and another one goes through the door.

Here's hoping you pop back into the room Al otherwise I'm going to be very lonely this Christmas. Stay safe as always and all of the very best to you and yours 😎.

Prophecy ffs 😃.

[Albionic68]

We might need your bucket 68. We could fill it up with the emotion on here 😉

Cry me a river....... 😃 😉.

[Omegstrat6]

Hope you had a good weekend Omeg. I knew the agenda when I saw OB?s post and that?s why I didn?t rise to it and mentioned the winter sunshine. Calling Bomber immature and sending a response like he did was in poor taste and can understand why Bomber took the bait. Boingy has tinted glasses ( clear now on the other forum ) but he?s harmless but Bomber has not said otherwise apart from one post about drugs which was in the context of bad taste.

I am in poor health and not getting better and this forum of late was an outlet for banter but don?t have the energy anymore. I appreciated and enjoyed Bombers match predictions as did many. If the match predictions are gone now then sadly I wish everyone well but will not be returning and this will be my last post.

Sorry to hear of your health problems Al and understand your POV, as I do Soulman's and Bomber's, but genuinely hope that you all reconsider. Maybe take a break, monitor the forum and then return. Personally, I shall miss you posting so really hope you do so. In the meantime, I wish you and yours all the best.

Interrupt all you want 68! After all, no point blogging otherwise is there?😁

Sad to both see so many key posters leave this site with others contributing much less frequently. Maybe you can persuade Aslan to help resolve the problem?

Anyhow, a big game coming up against Leicester on Friday so hope we get some of those changes a lot of us have been talking about!

[On Balance]

I have thought long and hard since Tuesday past as to whether or not to post this. After a lot of consideration I have decided that after, over a period of two years of a poster posting defamatory remarks and false statements regarding my personality and ***uality.

I make no apologies for posting this three times. Once on the two posts that refer to this post and a third in its own right. It is a quite a long read taking into account the evidence attached.

I will show that what was said about me by Baggieal was untrue and all lies.

I am not asking anyone to take sides. Just that you read it in full, including the links and then make up your own mind on whether there is truth or untruths in what was said about me in posts I have made.

Baggie Al stated, and I quote.

“What you put on that Huw Edwards post was absolutely vile and you it was personal with reference to Mick?s company which was outrageous. That was why he deleted the complete thread and had enough.”[Sic]

And again.

“OB has an agenda and it was Mick who deleted the Huw Edwards thread as personal comments were made on their in addition to his company.”[Sic]


So here is the proof. The link below is of Mickd’s thread regarding Huw Edward’s dated 8th July 2023. If you read through the thread you will see I did not make any offensive comments directed at Mickd or any other poster.

https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38307643

The next link is a further thread Mick made regarding Huw Edward’s dated 11th July 2023. Again if you read through it you will see I have not made any offensive comments directed at Mick or any other poster.

https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38307749

The third link below will show that Mick became a moderator after 3rd August 2023, therefore he would not have been able to remove threads at least up until that date, and as there was no issues with those threads why would he remove them.

https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38308590

Mickd’s last post was made on the 15th October 2024 on the thread to which the below link is attributed to. The link is regarding the fat jab. I will let you make up your own minds on that one. Maybe it was banter but it was his last post to date. Even friends do fall out occasionally.

https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38328315

The point I make is that Baggie Al has made up many untruths to back up his points. Make up is, the prerogative word, because nine times out of ten it is all untruths that he attempts to pass off as truths. Untruths about posters character, posters ***uality, posters personal life and untruths about what they have posted.

The comment he made suggesting I have divulged private information regarding Mick’s business, is a statement that is just simply not true, and made without foundation whatsoever.

Al has often called me offensive names, even stooping so low as to call me a dogs turd and call me gay. He has used the F word and the C word to describing me. I have never retaliated to his abuse.

I have an absolute dislike of bullies and in my line of work I see plenty. It is my job, my business to ensure total fairness. I will stand up to any bully and I stood next to Boingy because he was subject to abuse behind his back. Why anyone would continue to berate him when he had left this forum is beyond me I cannot see it serves any other purpose.

I could go on but I think any fair minded and level headed person will see it for themselves if they look at the whole situation as posted here.

I can only leave up to individuals to make up their own minds. I do not bully people, I simply stand up to them. I have asked Baggieal time and time and time again, that he provides evidence to support the untruths he has posted about me over the two and three quarter years since I joined this site. He has have been unable to do so and therefore the question begs why?

As I said in the beginning of this post, I am not asking anyone to take sides. Just to read it in full, including the links and then make up your own mind on whether there is truth or untruths in what was said about me in posts I have made, and perhaps have some understanding of why I found it so unjust and discriminatory, for those untruths to go unchecked.

I will leave you with two questions.

Would you stand with a bully or stand up to them?

Would you stand by a bully because they were popular and your friend or would stand up to them?

I know where I stand.

Thanks you if you have taken the time to read it. I do fully understand that it is quite a bit to take in.

I find it rather sad that there is this war of words festering on between fellow Baggies. We are on this site as Baggies fans and that commonality between us should be enough to preclude us from insulting each other. There is more than enough hatred in the World without us adding to it.

Agreed Ketts !👍

Over the time I've been on here I've disagreed with others whether it's over football or politics (mostly politics&#128513 but hope I have never been disrespectful and have never felt that I have been treated badly by anyone on here either.

I've never had an issue with Boingy when he was on here and haven't one with OB. I called out Blood's comments on Soulman which were totally out of order and for which he at least later apologised for but, as I posted earlier, I've too much going on elsewhere and am running out of energy to be sucked into arguments on here, which should be an enjoyable experience primarily sharing our love (and frustrations!) of the Albion. Life is too short.

I'll admit that I have not taken the time to read through all the links back to previous posts that OB put up so cannot really comment but don't doubt that he feels the need to defend himself or point out any untruths. But some scabs aren't worth picking at and sometimes its better to draw a line and move on. Doubtless OB may view this as a cop-out or fence-sitting but that's my personal position and just wish the arguments and toxicity to end and for us all to move on.

Thanks Omeg, an intelligent and articulate post on an unfortunate situation (I would expect nothing less, as your posts are always very well thought through)

I understand you, and most others would likely not read all the links provided, I put them there to show total transparency. One did not really need to read them, the fact they are there, indicates I had nothing to hide.

For clarity, I do not take your reasoning as a cop out, I understand fully where you are coming from. As I said in my previous post I was not asking people to take sides, I posted purely to indicate a situation whereby defamatory remarks were made by another poster.

The reason I was irked mostly, the icing on the cake so to speak, was the fact that Bomber, unfortunately and most unfairly in my opinion, decided to stop accepting my predictions in the prediction league, based purely on his friendship of another. It is something I would not, under the circumstances that arose, have considered doing.

Like you, I have had the odd disagreement on here without stooping to lying about the other or calling another poster offensive names.

I am in London today with family for the Ladies Rugby World Cup, it will hopefully end well for the Red Roses. I am going to enjoy the weekend and not let this bother me further. As you point out, it would be better if we draw a line under this. This is therefore, is my last post on this topic (I will continue to post however) and hopefully that will assist the board as a whole.

My friendship which you have questioned with Mick has always been solid and since he left the board we have attended matches and converse almost daily. That’s with other posters too!

The argument started with you and Bomber and on that Friday, I didn’t rise to your trouble causing because I mentioned the sunshine and plants to change direction. Then it kicked off. Your response to Bomber who is elderly and not of great health too was pathetic and calling him immature took the biscuit. Bomber rightly called you a trouble causer and banned you from the match predictions. I don’t blame him and at least two other posters who I see frequently agreed with this. To continue to cause problems you pleaded with Bomber (no apology) and said you would continue with match predictions on his thread. Read back your post and if you don’t feel there was anything wrong then seek help. Classic response from a bully or micro manager!

You never contribute to posts but attack the posts or posters you don’t like. The fact that you picked up on Bombers spat or even mine with Boingy was laughable. You didn’t want to pick up on the poster who directed the word “ arseholes” to posters on this site. We all know why!

See an extract below which is creepy and again you were called out!

Any opportunity, you just can’t help yourself

Back to Mick – he confirmed it was not the Huw Edwards thread ( mistake ) that made him leave the site but for clarity, you said on another post that a quick search of Companies House showed that his company wasn’t so successful. Do you not think that was personal as any information could show addresses and identify a person/persons and you don’t know what’s going on in their private life. To actually refer to Companies House or look up information is shocking and creepy – in line with your above comments about ladies underwear.

Mick clearly has many friends on the board and to some this won’t be anything new. I can understand the upset this caused him! You are a complete trouble causer which Bomber confirmed and always jump on posts which don’t fit your agenda.

Any response won’t be answered because many posters already know your agenda and once again – good for Bomber banning you! You never know if you didn’t post Mick might even return like Bomber did and for the record he’s a highly successful businessman who started from scratch! A great guy in fact who didn't deserve a creep looking up information as he didn't give his company name anywhere but you did some digging.

You think your smart O/B but clearly your far from it!

A great guy in fact who didn't deserve a creep looking up information as he didn't give his company name anywhere but you did some digging.

You think your smart O/B but clearly your far from it!

I respond, as I have done before, breaking down each untruth into the paragraphs as they are made in BaggieAl?s post.

1. (Ref Para 1 of your post). I have not questioned your relationship with Mick, other than to say his last post was in response to you, when you appeared to have a differing opinion on the fat jab. It ended with these last two sentences.

Mickd said “Cheers for that AL?€?..I know where I stand with you now.” [Sic].

You ended the thread saying, “With personal comments - people bite back! You went too far!
All the best.”

There were no emoji’s in Micks final responses.

2.) Ref Para 2 of your post). For the record Al, I did not call Bomber immature. Read verbatim below what I wrote. I clearly wrote that his post was not mature. A huge difference between calling Bomber immature and his post immature.

Here is what I wrote in full.

“Not the most mature of posts Bomber. I recall only a week or so ago that you, I and many other posters were appalled by Baggiebloods post regarding Soulmans spelling and yet here we are again. (Predict text often has a lot to do with misspelt words).

Like you said in your previous post, we are all allowed to our opinions. I did not revert to name calling, I simply pointed out how, what you had posted, made little sense and was quite humorous in my mind. (I got it right this time if that was the spelling you were referring too).

Seriously, I am sorry you are unable to accept criticism and I hope you do reconsider regarding posting on here. I find it difficult to understand why you found my previous post so bad. We all have to accept criticism and as you dissected what I had written I only responded respectfully to your post.

As I say I hope you reconsider Bomber and continue posting. If not I wish you all the best.”

In Bombers post, the final sentence is what I found insensitive given what had occurred only a few days previous.

In that same paragraph you distort the truth when you write I pleaded with Bomber to restore me to the prediction league. I only asked him to reconsider. That is a long way off of pleading.

Calling out someone over a misspelling was inappropriate. Be honest here Al, have you ever apologised for calling me a dog turd, for suggesting I was homo***ual and for all the other times you have called me names, which included the use of the C, F and P names?

Your final sentence in Paragraph two, is quite amusing where you suggest I micro manage. Again you are reduced to make defamatory remarks and present it as fact all in order to shore up your lies.

3. (Ref Para 3 of your post). So many untruths in this one paragraph. I do post and have started posts. I recall the one regarding Holidays which I started. I said we were going for two weeks to Malaga in Spain. Do you recall your snide comment about Malaga. I did not respond to that. I waited until we had returned and indicated why and who we went with, proving a less fortunate family with a two week holiday. Did you respond with an apology. No.
I will explain why perhaps I do not post as often as you.

i. I still work and have a very busy workload. Therefore, I am not online all day.
ii. I do not have opinions on everything.
iii. I tend to shy away from posts that knock players from the team I support, particularly if the post refers to them in an unsavoury way. I rarely post on political matters for the same reason.
vi. I was unaware that I had to make or start a given number of posts to be accepted on the forum.


4. (Ref Para?s 4 to 7 in your post). The link below refers to the post you refer to in paragraph four. Again you only post a little of a conversation. The post of the 1st September 2023, referred to the transfer window. On post 39 a particular vile post appeared which was off topic.

I found their description of what they would do with Pippa Middletons underwear unpleasant. It is a distasteful, unpleasant and disgusting habit and to go O/T on a public forum, one which women and young people have access to, is utterly out of order.

When challenged by them both, I did not respond by calling them vile names. I simply pointed out I found the whole thing disgusting.

To put it into context below is the complete thread it starts at post 39.

https://boards.footymad.net/showthread.php?t=38309792&page=8

5. (Ref para 8 and 9 in your post). You admit you made a mistake regarding which post you stated I had offended Mickd. Please direct me to the post you claim I made, what you say was offensive etc. and say caused Mick to leave.

I do recall making a comment about Companies House. I did not name anyone or post a link. I simply said anyone can access Companies House and see how successful a business is. I did not divulge any information personal to Mickd, therefore once more you lie when you stated I had divulged private information.


You said, and I quote. “The thread was deleted and you made a reference to a person?s company which was personal as this breaches privacy unless of course shared by the said person. Would you object to a reference about anything personal regarding you which could identify you to all and sundry? I think not as would anyone!” [Sic]

Companies House is open source, explain how open source information breaches privacy legislation. You likely will not explain because it does not break any privacy legislation. Your lies do not stand up to scrutiny.

For the record, I have never suggested Mickd is not a good businessman.

You suggest I should leave this forum. If I was to leave I would be bowing down to a bully. How many people have left I wonder, because they have been bullied.

Below is a link to a thread where you bully two posters. I only came across as a result of a post from Baggie Smudge on last weekends prediction league.

It starts at post 15 by WBA123, your response is at 18. No offensive name calling was used up until your post at 18.

In your final sentence you suggest I think I am clever. I am likely no more clever than you. I simply have morals and standards which I try very hard to not let slip.

Earlier last week, Ryan Tubrity, a radio presenter on Virgin Radio, said this about one of the best bits of advice he was given by somebody-

“Never advertise your ignorance. If you are going to engage in a conversation make sure you do the research first.”
