    I don't know whether I hold myself in high regard. In one sense we should all try to do our best, but on the other we are all just mortal men who can know almost nothing of the true nature of the world.
    It doesn't sting at all if some people who don't seem very clued up don't appreciate or maybe even understand what I might say - perhaps it dissapoints sometimes because I'm generally only saying it to involve them in discussions from which I suspect they're generally excluded.
    I've every reason to be confident in my abilities , so the utterances and expletives of a few yobs on a football forum are unlikely to dent my self image much - not that self image or ego are huge things to me.

    To be absolutely frank, I'm a bit horrified that there are so many thickies and so few articulate people here. It's not how I remember the people of South Wales years ago when Colliers would sit there discussing Socrates and imagining a world of advancement for their children and grandchildren.
    I remember how they scrimped to provide libraries and books for local schools to this end. I have reason to be grateful to them for this, and therefore if anything "stings", it is seeing that their efforts apparently turned out to be fruitless in so many cases.

    To be fair we didn’t have many Welsh footballers about then to enthuse over so Socrates was a decent shout.

    I'd ask for a refund. There's no such thing as a Celtic DNA as they were a group of ethnically diverse tribes who shared a common linguistic root.
