| GT's do a good job raising money for the staff fund. We should support them on here not slate them. |

You are of course right. |

Why?
They're not a charity.
They subsidised Brent's takeover, and continue to do so.
I wouldn't hate them forev0r, as they seem like dignified enough chaps, but they're as fair game as anyone else.
Also, there isn't a 'we should' on ATD. If you want to, then do so. Don't expect others on here to do so. We are a collection of independently thinking individuals, rather than a party to be whipped into line. |

Amen Mock and that's what makes us different to pasoti. |

| I support two charities (and I know, technically, the Green Taverners aren't a charity). I don't look at the causes I support and say it should be down to government or parents or whatever to do the job themselves - though, of course they should - and walk away myself. I see two causes that I choose to support and get on with it because if I don't then there will be suffering people who will receive less help.
I think that the Green Taverners fall into that category - they are speeding up the payments to staff at Argyle who went without during the admin period. Morally that doesn't get the millionaire owner of the club off the hook but it recognises that if someone doesn't offer assistance then the people stuck in the middle actually are receiving help. The Green Taverners isn't one of my 'charities'. I have no axe to grind against anyone who contributes to them or against anyone who doesn't. _________________ "Integrity. Honesty.

| There are plenty of culprits associated with our club well worthy of slating but I just feel the gt's aren't one of them if thats ok. They are helping our staff when those that could have, should have but didn't or want to, why try to find fault when they themselves don't even want or are looking for as much as a parking space. |

| I have no problem with the GT's. What they have done for the staff is just brilliant. I also have no problem with things like the fan fests. If people who wish to go to things like that for a pasty and a pint before a match, for the benefit of the staff then fine. _________________ I'm one of the common people so says the wife!

I really like this, exactly the ethos as I see it and just how I tried (and failed) to explain it to somebody on Saturday.
Just to add, don't also get the hump if somebody posts a contrary view to your own. |

| Who's got the hump Charlie? I actually agree with that and perhaps I should have elaberated a bit more in my post instead of just saying A of M was right. They deserve to be supported as opposed to "we should" would have been better and I would have agreed with that part also regardless as that is the way I see it. |

Thanks GOB. I have read ATD with great interest since its inception. Amazing you are considered freaks and weirdo's by those who act like freaks and weirdo's yet it is obvious free thinking exists here and you (we now) have only the Club's best interests at heart. Unfortunately weak minded people with little achievement in their lives have been permitted to represent Argyle and frankly that is an embarassment. it makes us appear second rate to other Clubs, even in League 2. Things cannot be permitted to continue. ATD has proven that the bully never succeeds in the long term. I have problem with Brent, he is a businessman and has seen an opportunity to make money and have some fun. It wasn't just his decision to get involved with Argyle, I just know he has chosen unwisely in linking himself with uneducated people who say they are Argyle through and through. It is a wrong business decision and something he would never have made in any other business sphere.

Well said that man. Sophisticated visionaries are few and far between.
ps Try being less verbose Jock. You shouldn't require 500 words to report that someone is a deceitful prick.

Sorry Tring. I have to explain why I feel the way I do about Pasoti and in particular the mods. I don't want to be seen as someone just saying it's shit or whatever because I am banned. I'm not banned from Pasoti, but I would never post on there again.
I've been labelled a racist by two of the Pasoti mods, wrongly of course because they know I received a 3 year banning order and the Police tried to say I was racist chanting and making monkey noises, which was a total fabrication and I challenged them to produce this evidence in court, but they decided not to pursue this line of enquiry!
If I were Mark Pedlar and Ian De Liar, I would be thinking very carefully about their statements that known racists are nt allowed to post on Pasoti. When there is an extremely high profile Pasoti poster who DID receive a football banning order for a racist offence. They will both know who it is
I suppose he's learned his lesson now though |
Play them at their own game and name who that is |
I'll wait for their comments on it. Would love to see them deny it and make even bigger pricks out of themselves than they already have
What say you now boys? Want to just admit that you're full of shit and harbouring a convicted racist on Pasoti, plus all the racists who made comments about travellers?
Maybe Green Thing would like to comment on these fabricated issues |

| I was merely trying to make the point that my 'monotonous phrases' have the desired effect and take a lot less effort. I've tried suggesting, explaining and cajoling with these people but the nature of the self promoting, intellectually challenged control freaks currently infesting our club, is such that long winded missives, no matter how factually correct, are just water off an Aviva's back . |

It's almost like a veiled threat, we know your real name be scared.
I'll be at the Cheltenham match on tuesday if any of the Pasoti mafia would like to come and say hi, they can put a face to the real name then.
I'll be with a group of 4 friends, 2 are serving Police officers. Feel free to say hi, w@nkers. |
Regarding Exeweb.....yes, quite often Ian Newell would use a posters first name or last name as part of his intimidation campaign. Newell is now a figure of fun, more humpty dumpty than Poll Porkus.

I really thought your continual referring to silly hats etc. was monotonous, until the train wreck that is the PASB, where some people will do anything to get their chufty badge and silly hat, despite it being as trustworthy and meaningful an election as a group of 8 year olds choosing captains by doing Ip dip dog shit |
In the interests of fairness, Jock, of the elected members of the gasboard your statement above only really applies to one person. I know Jon Back doesn't fall into that category and I'm happy to assume that the others wouldn't either.
The fact that Miles Bidgood, who I've met over the seasons in the Fellowship before games and is a good bloke, didn't get elected after campaigning on pasoti goes to show that that website had no real effect on the considered verdict of those members who did vote. You don't do your argument any favours by tarring all with the same brush.
TBF you did say some people, I would have said one person. |
I take your point, but Lee Jameson? |

| I was only talking elected, how Lee has the brass neck to accept a position is beyond me, but indicative of how the politicos amongst us can put the inconvenient behind them and move on. They are all adept at that, whatever the colour of their views. |
