It's just one mans opinion, but it's mine! If I'm honest I think those flags look . if it floats their boat fair play too em!

Do sheep possess egos? Feckwitts shall always require guidance. That's why they need prompting when to sing and when not to sing.

Don't mention sheep!Actually I always used to get on ok with Wiganer's ,I found them similar to the old traditional Loiner fans..Its just the last 2-3 year's with their behaviour and antics at Headingley and some of last years boasting which we all know about.I know the old Wiganers are still there.If anyone ever visits Philadelphia and goes into the old City there is an old house which looks like those old terrace houses still around in the North of England,but this house has long lines of tourists going in to visit.It the house of the most famous Flag maker in USA history Betsy Ross.Maybe the winner of the Ultra's best flag comp should have it written into the flag Betsy Ross was a Brigante.

I just got banned from the Wigan board.

I wasn't trolling, I didn't criticise the moderation process, I didn't criticise Wigan, the town, the team or it's supporters, I didn't breach the AUP but still picked up a ban.

This is the second time that I have been banned for a seemingly innocuous comment that a trigger happy mod has taken offence to.

It might be interesting to see how many of us SS boys and girls can cop a ban from the piestapo in one go!

Which post did you get banned for?
Could you post it on here to see how intolerant they actually are on there

I said:

[i"The trouble with sarcastic posts like these is that some people may think you're actually being serious"[/i

while quoting another poster.

Having just checked the banned list, you've NEVER been banned from the Wigan board, so why you think you've been banned twice only you know.

Really???

Really.

Well as long as you say so - it must be some kind of problem with my PC. I'll get it checked out.

I know it will be hard for some to believe but it's been over a month since someone was banned and that was a Wigan fan for threatening other users. Your last post was put in the trash can to stop a thread being derailed any further, but you certainly aren't on the ban list and I've just checked again to make sure.

I'm banned from seeing the ban list, or from banning people at the moment.

I bet they're wondering where all the business has gone to...

Back in the banning bit now - I can confirm that neither "Fat Boy" or "LS16_Rhino" is on the ban list for the Wigan forum.

There's lots of other good ones though

Jarvo once Clotched me from the Villager because I gave him back his own medicine,and he tried hook and by crook to get me to go back in.I said I never realised that I only had to stay away from the place to see what outhouse it really is .Never went back in,but I have nowt against the big guy either

They get round the need to ban by just deleting any critical posts that they're incapable of replying to. This has happened 4 times tonight within 5 minutes of posting the following:

Reminds me of those kids in the playground with absolutely no friends who's only sense of satisfaction or power comes from saying 'It's my ball and if you don't let me win I'm taking it home'

Five times actually.

Probably six within the next few minutes.

Go on. I'll bite. What behaviour and antics are they then?

I remember someone throwing something at Lee Smith when he jumped in our stand after he scored in the cup (which was out of order) but don't remember much else.

Don't know if it's a bug with the board or if it is expected behaviour but if you have a post removed from a thread (trashed) you are no longer authorised to see that forum until you restart your browse session.

So as both you and Andy rightly said, I do not seem to have been banned but in my defence when you get a message saying "You are not authorised to read this forum" it's easy to think that one might have been banned.

A plastic container was thrown at a linesman, coins and beer thrown over home supporters and lets not forget the bog brush incident.

The one thrown at us you mean?


The plastic container was from the Smith incident wasn't it? Like I said, I don't condone that but it's one incident and not 'the last 2 or 3 years'

Are you a Leeds fan?

It came from over the fencdm mate
