Wow you really have a problem if you carry that sort of stuff in your head, as for it being a forum, maybe you should remember that when replying to other posters opinion with your unnecessary insults, anything else you want to get off your chest while your at it.

I don't, shock horror I used google, not sure that's a problem.

Not insulted anyone, but then you don't get sarcasm or humour or an appropriate response to a certain kind of post do you

You will. This forum is indeed, for everyone to comment about the subject matter, if they are able to actually post in this forum.

I suggest you take PT's advice.

That's still kind of an insult Vasty.

1 : a sharp and often satirical or ironic utterance designed to cut or give pain.
2 : a mode of satirical wit depending for its effect on bitter, caustic, and often ironic language that is usually directed against an individual

Funny when it's at a friend, not always so on a forum.
I make this mistake sometimes too.

No, it's not a mistake, I mean it. Not my fault if people are thin-skinned if you give it you take it. This is an RL forum with strong opinions and a place where IMO sarcasm and Micky taking have a place, just like the terraces. Also, just like on the terraces it can get out of control, that's when you step in, that said sarcasm is rarely a public order offence.

If this were the forum for the Samaritans or Cancer Research then I'd agree with you.

Told you [iall[/i the PT & Vasty love-in



wouldn't last....

It's ok, he has a point, so do I

That's true.....its just that my point is better

I'll never understand why we attract the crazies to this forum. The other pages don't seem to get them nearly as much.

I didn't mean it was a mistake to be sarcastic. I meant it is a mistake to think everyone will find it as funny and harmless as you meant it.

I know but what can you do, it's way too late for me to be liked

The matters now closed. Players present apologies and have been fined.
Best result

I can’t remember the players apologising to the wider public? I suppose it’s good enough though and at least it wasn’t swept under the carpet. I hope a certain prop realises how lucky he’s been. He must be on his last caution now!

I doubt he gives a monkeys to be honest, been a constant problem through all this

You are probably right mate. Suppose we can hope.

Depends if you think a Fifita apology is particular is worth anything, I’m not sure I do. That bloke has gone from hero to zero to me and frankly right now if anyone took him off our hands I wouldn’t shed a tear.

He now needs to have the season of his life in 2021 if he’s to undo the damage he’s caused to the club and even more so his own reputation.

There is still time for the Big Bopper to get that legendary status he seemed assured of only 18 month ago but not much.

Over to him but I won’t be holding my breath.

Fifita's indiscretions will soon be forgotten if he produces on the field. It's just the way it is.
The same is the case in reverse unfortunately. If he doesn't produce, his previous great play will be overshadowed by off field things.

Its down to him now.

Agree 100%FIL, Hope they have taken everything on board and start to set examples to young up and coming Wakey lads.

I'd just like to add that I think the way the club has handled this has been exemplary.
They reacted very quickly to unequivocally condemn such action, dealt with it promptly and firmly without doing their dirty washing publically. Cut off in the bud. Well done.

I'm ok with that to be honest. Well done to the club.

The way it’s been handled is fine.

My only concern is with a player who never seems to learn.

I don’t think players are roll models to fans, in anything but the widest sense. They are however when it comes to young players and senior players. I used to think Daves ebullient nature was a good thing but now we have seen the flip side.

It’s not what he does it’s the consistency in which he does at that makes it bad. Must be very hard to maintain club discipline with such a lose cannon on board.

We were all worried about Westerman when he signed but compared to Fifita he’s a model pro, or at the very least he’s more discreet. It amazes me what a big smile and a modest talent allows you to get away with.

I assume with him it’s a final warning? I equally assume that it’s a real one like you or I would get, which would allow us to sack him without compensation if he transgresses again? If not it’s fairly meaningless.

I get the feeling you have some problem with Fifita, did he run over a family pet.

Yes I do, don’t you? Many fans do. He’s been shocking over the last 12 month.

But then you know that, your just peeved that I’ve beaten you to something you could beat the team/club over the head with, which is your normal agenda, you’re so transparent.

The attempt at humour, don’t give up the day job

Just seems to be issue after issue with Fifita, most other players would be well gone by now.

I just hope he can knuckle down and have a good season on and off the pitch this season, at this point I would not be distraught if he went and in exchange we got 2 solid hard working props in his place.
