A dreadful team to watch

TLG suddenly didn't like venom anymore and I'm not sure I've seen a finer grovelling act on the internet ever.

:hehe:

The person concerned isn't big or hard. He is, however, a nice guy. He asked me for an apology and I gave one as my initial comments had been out of order. Simple as that.

You've spent half your Christmas justifying it dude. :hehe: You also spent most of 2012-201(?) seeking justification and making comments about those who decided to keep supporting the club. Comments that led to yet another backtrack as quoted below.

Ah, so if you didn't know the son of the ladies the comments would have stood. I'll remember that the next time you are on your high horse.

What distinguishes you from the other twentyodd thousand at the game?

Should the guy on the tannoy say

"And today's attendance is 22,431 supporters and The Lone Backtracker who isn't supporting us and is definitely not putting money into the club, well directly anyway" You're a supporter as soon as you hear that turnstile click. You're one of us dude, welcome back to the fold.

What I don't do is pay any money directly into Cardiff City, and I haven't done that since June 2012.

As I posted earlier, as you still go to matches, you are telling us here that you do not pay for tickets, I think you are telling porkies!

A big lad like you getting upset at being called a joker. What’s the world coming to?
If I’ve hurt your feelings I apologise.
The nonsense about sending you a pm and having a “meet” is kids stuff.

Uh, righto. I seek justification for going to football matches. Regularly, just like every other football fan. After all, it's a crime of sorts, so it needs justification. Or something like that. I think.

I have absolutely no idea. I'd have to talk to each and every one of them to establish that.

Why do you think I'm telling porkies? What is it that you don't understand?

Totally agree :-) Which is why I found the 10-12 posts from you before my post above explaining your specific stance on going to the CCS a bit random. As you said, no need to justify, so why does it matter the reasons, how often and how much you pay to go down :thumbup:

Doesn't matter to me and I didn't bring the subject up, but it seems of great importance to the likes of Allez Allez Allez and Igovernor for reasons only they can explain.

Ok, you state you still go to ccfc matches and you dont put money into the club, how does that work, are you saying you get all your tickets to watch ccfc for free or city let you in for free, if it's neither of these then you must be paying for your tickets! so you are putting money into the club

I have a season ticket. There have been a few occasions I've not made midweek games and a mate has borrowed my ticket. There have been times in the past when I've been offered tickets to see the City by friends who have tickets but been unable to go.

I thnk that he knows a shed load of season ticket holders who sit in groups, as is the case, there are always fans who can't make games for whatever reason so he gets offered tickets. Someone else would've paid for that ticket. That's my take on it.

Tan has still had the readies for the ticket though.
Nevermind, in TLG’s head he’s still making his determined stance.
