COME ON PAL. Chin up! Quality poster.
Seriously dude....get your backside back in here!
i'm only a casual & recent poster on this forum (more of a 'lurker' really), but from the little that i've seen, if another poster who quits gets a two page thread inviting him to rejoin and resume posting about 'sausages' [wtf, ffs], then this guy, who contributed a lot of invariably fulham related stuff, and seemed genuinely enthused in doing so, should get a lot more

Why is everyone such a drama queen here? What's wrong with this board?

Oh we've hit the FOF nail bang on the head. FANTASTIC POST.
Frankie, you're one of the few on the board who knows his football and his tactics/info/players like the back of his hand, and ALL of your posts are interesting and thought provoking.
More than can be said for some posters who get their own come back because we all know you personally thread.

Emmmmm ..... Very thought provoking
Come back Frank BTW
What was bis username?!
As a footnote to this thread.. if any poster does have problems on this board, please contact any of the moderators. There are very few problems we can't iron out. Shame to lose quality posters.
FRANKIE PETER TAYLOR, sorry but if someone goes off because some else disagrees with them then let them go, this is a forum, not a nodding society , we have posters who irritate so all you do is scroll by, all this please come back posts are nonsense.

Is this all down to the 'McFadden' thread?

Or as it is now known 'the scottish player'
Deleting your account is in no way a good answer to any problem. Come back.
...I hope the lad comes back even though I don't know him personally and he's not a member of a perceived clicque. I like his posts simple.
People disagree with each other all the time, it is not exclusive to message boards, and one thing for sure, he should be aware that if someone disagrees with him on Friends Of Fulham it is usually done in a civilized and well mannered way, as it was in this instance. Not sure how he will react to the way people disagree on other boards...
always thought his posts were well written, i've been away for a couple of days whats happened?
He thew a wobbly because someone disagreed with him.

Shall we ALL just leave now?
To leave over comments regarding Mc....'the scottish player' Wow, i can understand gettng passionate about direction or current players but about players who arent or ever have been on the ffc squad list is staggering!

Whoa. Whoa. Did you disagree with me there? That's it, deleting my account.

It's funny that you say that. Quite few people who've recently left FoF vacated for that exact reason and they weren't vilified... People leave for their own reasons and we should respect that. Only the individual in question (and the moderators) are able to judge the situation.
We don't know the situation exactly and we shouldn't assume anything really. All I will say is this - Frankie is definitely a top poster on this board. I have really enjoyed reading his threads as they're always well thought out and interesting. His tactical analysis is super. I'll definitely miss his posts and the board is at all loss with them.
*Hops back into hibernation until the season begins again*
What did I miss? Has Frankie eloped with Fat Fred?
I just looked back over the thread in question having missed it all and have to say I don't really see anything too wrong. It was a debate, it's what forum's are for! If everyone spent the whole time agreeing with eachother there would be nothing much to talk about and no point in having a forum!
Having said that, I also found Frankie's post informed and good to read and after all often sparked debate (shock horror!).
Perhaps Frankie was just having one of those days, but I hope he does return as he was a genuine contributor to the forum with good opinions, views and knowledge.
Having read through the McFadden thread, it does appear it was just a difference of opinion and its a shame he chose to leave the board because it it. This forum has always been excellent way to exchange views, its just a shame he took offence to another persons viewpoint. Good luck with your new blog Frankie.
He was a good poster IMO and passionate about his football but to tell someone to grow up and then delete his account because of a, well not even a, small disagreement seems very ...... Childish!! Grow up springs to mind!!
I'm sure he'll be back.

They didn't have a thread entitled 'Come back _______' though. No one has
vilified him, nor would there be any bother or passing comments if there wasn't a thread devoted to his flounce.

Hasn't Fat Fred had like 5 threads like that since he left?

Yeah, he goes without saying though. Last poster I saw quit mid debate was called Portillo?Pimlico? and that was only the other week.
...the come back Fat Freddy posts were from people who assumed it was he who closed his own account whereas he had in fact been suspended.
Now he is banned and moderators can go on holidays as a consequence...
I find it odd that he left due a disagreement of a player. I thought the ability of players is something we all disagree on.

I do agree with you about the importantance of debate, though. It's the bedrock of this board and something we do quite well (debate on footballing matters, though.) Suppose the point is that we have no idea why he left and shouldn't assume that it was that. It could have been that, it could have been something else or it could have been a culmination of events.

If you're going to continue to be fair, reasonable, and logical, I may have to stop reading your posts, ma'am.

It's like Eastenders on here sometimes! He'll post again if he wants to and if he doesn't no ones really lost anything.

What's your problem with sausages? I'll have you know that Fred knows his football! He's just partial to a quality banger. If we could somehow combine the 2 the lad will be in his element.

Leaf it art yer slag. Yer not me Muvver.
Mr Demille. I am ready for my close up
I read the offending thread. All very inocuous really. Aside from a minor swing of a handbag here or there I'm not sure how it could have prompted such a reaction.
Incidentally, McFadden on a free? Why the hell not?
What a load of shite this is. I absolutely loved his posts and was in some ways jealous of how he could get points regarding the club across in the way he did. But I read the thread and that is no reason to leave. Either he reacted to a tame situation in a way I never could have imagined or he's left for a different reason.
For those that made assumptions; I did NOT leave because he disagreed with me, that would be pathetic. I left for personal reasons and I request that you respect my reasoning seeing as many of you have got it all wrong.
Ok Frankie, thanks for explaining - but dont delete your account again you would always be welcomed back.
...welcome back Frankie, yes some of us misunderstood your reasoning, but there was no other reason we could ascertain why you would leave.
Anyway, as mentioned, welcome back...
*MISSION ACCOMPLISHED*
