Victoryv Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 22 minutes ago, Jayfire said: So many people trying so hard to avoid football that they walk into a football related thread to talk about not wanting anything to do with football. I hate and can't understand fishing, you all seem so weird and boring. I'm sure I saw a fishing thread though so I'm just off to have a good read and make comments in there Sorry, thought this was a forum about the Norfolk Broads! Just one of the reasons I dislike football, it insinuates itself into most aspects of life. No offences intended, by the way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My post, tinged with my usual dose of sarcasm, wasn't aimed at you or anyone else in particular either. However if someone hates football so much why not ignore a thread which completely makes it obvious that football related posts lie within Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQ Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Many of the threads including this one, have a title that does not tell you whether it's for fans of something or for those against it. This title just Says England verses Tunisia, it doesn't say for the discusion of the football match or for fans of the match or for those that hate football...

MauriceMynah Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 Any thread can wander off topic, some faster than others, so not reading a thread because of its original topic can be short sighted to say the least. I am far from a soccer fan, but might watch the later matches if we are still in it. anyway, be that as it may, If someone starts a thread on whatever subject in whichever forum, if I am a member I think I have the right of reply to the original post and to any that evolve from it. This is a forum for broads lovers to discuss any subject, as I understand it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a forum for broads lovers to discuss any subject, as I understand it! That's got nothing to do with what I am saying. Of course you can reply as a member if you choose to although as has been seen in a number of threads recently if sometimes people chose not to it would be a much better place My point is if you hate something so much and choose to try and avoid it at all costs, why choose to go onto a forum and talk about the very thing you are trying to avoid. Anyway I said I was stepping away so now I shall. I'm off for a beer to watch the football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MauriceMynah Posted June 21, 2018 Share Posted June 21, 2018 In fairness Jayfire, only the first point (wandering threads) was aimed in your general direction, though I accept that I might not have been clear about that.

How wrong can one be! San Miguel beer is actually a pale pilsen, a Filipino pale lager produced by the San Miguel Brewery in 1890.it is the largest selling beer in the Philipines and Hong Kong. San Miguel Beer was introduced in Spain by San Miguel Brewery on 1946. OK it is Spanish owned and also a tad popular in Spain now, so can loosely be termed as Eurofizz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like to think when I mentioned it, I made it a more interesting education involving photos, bubbles, a nice frothy head and more importantly me sitting drinking it, than you just made it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
