The main problem is that many 'johnny come latelys' to internet forums can't tell the difference between banter and trolling... football has always had a degree of harmless good natured banter on and off the terrace. These's days banter is considered corrosive or evil trolling by humerless morons who 'don't get it'!
Banter= Does anyone know a chippie who can fit a revolving door to the managers office at St Marys...? Harmless banter, but will probably be considered bad taste and be deleted... that's why these forums are dying!
Sez I'm a new member... but joined several years ago... I am one of the 'missing' fans that just popped back to see if it was still hang'in in there!
