No I live in Rainford, therefore don't get the Wigan Observer.

However, that has nothing to do with you unnecessarily insulting a member of this board, you've gone too far this time. I used to think you was alright and just here for a bit of banter, but you've stooped quite low this time, I'm sure you wouldn't like comments like that if you was in the same position.

The Wigan Observer is available in St. Helens. Buy it, read it, and then come back and apologise.

The article was about Hock and that he had to convince Wigan (Ian Lenagan) that he was worth employing.

No more no less.

Oh and btw wasn't it SaintsFan who brought Hock brain (or lack of it) into this thread?

Mods please sort this.

Don't be so deflective, I'm not talking about Gareth Hock and you know that full well. You know exactly what I'm talking about, you had a very low dig on SaintsFan which was completely uncalled for.

And yes please, mods sort this.

If you can be bothered to read that article you will see it was about Hock and it was SaintsFan who had the dig.

Yes please mods.

Yes. In a witty response to the previous post's reference to his 'brain farts'. Hock is not the brightest star in the firmament, he is in the public eye and is therefore fair game on the humour front.

You, however, were having one of your weird personal digs at me, knowing full well that I am unemployed because I've said so on here before.

And this is a Saints board so why not clear off back to your own board instead?

And, frankly, few people on this Saints board are interested in Hock.

Having a dig at an opposition player is part and parcel of these boards, it will happen in every thread you read mostly and it is highly unlikely said player will ever see it.

You made a direct insult to somebody which may have upset them, it isn't comparable at all.

No I was pointing out to you that Ian Lenagan publicly stated in the Wigan Observer that Hock had to demonstrate that he was employable.

Buy the paper, and read the article.
Or are you questioning what I read?

A bit like you not believing that I heard Leon Pryce say on Wish FM that Saints weren't as good an attacking team under Simmons.

Rogues, nobody is referring to your silly little article or Gareth Hock. You know that just as well as SaintsFan and myself, you made an underhand, low comment to which you know you was out of order. You are now trying to be ignorant to the whole situation to try and get yourself out of it.

This is not about Gareth Hock.

So it's o.k. to insult a player.

I merely defended that player and referenced a published article in a local newspaper.

Buy the newspaper, or pm me and I'll deliver it to you (as I only live in Billinge) then I'll accept you apology.

Re: Tuson ban : Wed Jun 22, 2011 10:42 pm  

I should be a mod on here, everyone knows that. So I'll say it.

Shut up you lot or I'll ban you all.

I don't give two hoots about the article and it's you that should be apologising. From the AUP:

That was a direct insult at SaintsFan and her employment status. Yes it is okay to light heartedly insult a player, after all this a public forum about the players. They won't read this and will never be offended by it.
