The rise and full of fulham

[RaySmith]

Used to think he was WUM, that he was probably perfectly able to write coherently if he wanted, but now not so sure.

Don't know if he has a learning disability though, maybe just eccentric, as said.
Definitely has a bee in his bonnet, but his posts don't bother me- he's certainly become  one of the forum 'characters.'

A complete enigma. He should really be known as MicktheThread because he never responds to his own discussion creations.

[Bassey the warrior]

Anyone that can't even spell the word 'fall' is not worth listening to.

Mick clearly has an issue with writing and particularly with sentence structures. He has never shared with us but it could be that he suffers a learning disability. Those that write him off as a bot or a troll, call him pathetic or illiterate, could perhaps show a bit more empathy and understanding.
This board is a broad church and by football standards we are a generally decent lot. How about we have a smile at Mick's posts but give him the benefit of the doubt?

 Well said Twig. I was thinking similar.

So you are suggesting that we should show understanding and empathy for someone who only posts when we lose, who never has anything good to say about the club or the people who work at the club. Who constantly critisises the way it is run without offering any positive alternatives. Who would like to see us relegated. Who repeatedly posts insulting and unpleasant comments about the owners of the club.
I am sorry. I don't think I can.

My thoughts exactly. If you even have an inkling that you wish to see Fulham relegated then you're not a Fulham fan, no matter how much you dislike the PL.

There is a big difference between disagreeing with his posts and some of the comments that have been made about him. That's all I'm saying.

Maybe if he actually responded to his own threads or the people who quote him we could have a dialogue on why he thinks that but as he never does, I can only assume he's a bot.

[Angus Telford]

Anyone following FFC-related Twitter activity will know fake 'bot' accounts are frequently created to defend TK and AM on there. If Mick were a bot created to do the opposite, I think that would actually add some much-needed balance. However, someone up the thread has confirmed he's a real person. The residual criticisms seem to be that his grammar is incorrect (lots of stones being thrown from glass houses in that respect) and he doesn't reply enough. Therefore all the criticism to me seems totally OTT.

I talked to Mick briefly in the Bricklayers Arms about 5 years ago. Eccentric maybe but certainly no troll.

Out of interest, how did you manage to do that?

His account on here is less than 5 years old, so how would you have known that the person you spoke to back then would become MickTheBeard?

He posts on another board as well using his surname and it wasn't difficult to cross-reference when 'MickTheBeard' began posting here.

I have always assumed Mick is the guy who ran the Thamesbank travellers and still sits in the hammy. Am I wrong?

Mick is a real, dyed in the wool Fulham loyalist who sits in H6. He can be very annoyingly moany, as he himself admits, but he is 100% genuine - he follows the team away from home, as well as watching the youth teams at Motspur. He's had a very rough time of late with his health, but hopefully he gets back to 100% soon.

Well then please tell him to respond to comments on his own threads.
