Title: People's opinions
Post by: Baszab on May 15, 2014, 06:18:27 PM
I propose that every time someone states any opinion on FFC - or posts a well-founded rumour heard from someone worthwhile - they preface the post with --

In my humble opinion................

Then everyone who criticises/says "how do you know?" / "were you MJ's assistant" /etc etc can read the posts and reply without accusations and unreasonable criticism

Can't we just say in my opinion. Being female I'm not humble

In my humble opinion, this thread will not reach the ones who need it, so far as reasonably practical.

you know the ones which are correct because they end with "fact". Fact.

I propose another solution.

Each week a raffle is held. The moderators choose a name at random, and the winner becomes "Board King" for the next 7 days. During that time we all have to agree with their opinions as though they're fact. No exceptions.. Anyone who disagrees gets fed to the dogs.

Simples. Everyone would be happy.

I am guilty of using "FACT" in the past  - but that was because I knew I was right

In my humble opinion, your post is invalid since you could not even follow your own example.  And, since I'm American, you ALL know I'm always right...Just ask me. FACT.

Cheers,

Steve

Don't you just hate it. I mean all the negative stuff. I hate it. I wish they would all die and just be happy like me. I love the club till I die. I don't care where we play because I am so positive. In my humble opinion I am always right and always there to be positive about how negative you all are.

Why can't we all just get along. Except the negative posters. They are scum.

How do we know you qualify as 'humble'.

Please provide us with some examples. Proof is required!

"Ever so humble and pleased to meet another Fulham supporter Mr Copperfield"

Uriah Heap

Fact, period and lies, because David Copperfield was a Leyton Orient and Corinthian Casuals supporter

I will not be humble for anyone,fact.
I will continue to give my opinion, fact
what i know as a fact i will state is a fact, fact.
I will do that even if I can't reveal my source, fact period.
And what is my opinion will be stated as such too, fact, period.
This is a getting a bit like a Victor Borge sketch.... and if you are too young to have heard of him, check it out on YouTube, very funny in its day.

In other words i will continue business as usual.

That wouldn't be possible. Following recent FA guidelines (released via email by Richard Scudamore), women aren't to be trusted. It's not a view I personally share, but I wouldn't want to go against the FA on footballing matters.

Maybe if you wore a beard. Would you consider that?

You'd be surprised; I only usually feed them disloyal uncles so they're happy with whatever they can get.
