    Utterly absurd conclusion to make, and extremely offensive to Simon and others who feel as though they are having their free-speech and opinions limited because of idiotic accusations like this.

    Of course you are!

    But you shouldn't bring someone's integrity into disrepute with far-fetched assumptions based on opinion.

    Well my advice is that when your opinion has no basis in actual fact and are libellous then you should probably not

    So you have called someone a whining bitch based on their comments, I have called someone a racist based on their comments. Both of us have made it clear that it is our own opinion. But you as an admin of the site are telling me I shouldn’t post my opinion but you are happy to post yours.

    Seems fair

    There is a big difference in saying a SINGLE comment that Danny Rose said was Whining and you calling me a racist.

    Calling Danny Rose a whiner doesn't impact his life, calling me a racist and even going as far as implying I made comments about his race does. Especially when someone (Personally I suspect its you but I can't prove it) is now cyberstalking me and contacting my clients using your accusations as evidence

    Difference is, @Storck@Storck, you've gone as far as reporting someone for what is a perfectly valid opinion. This in essence is trying to remove somebody's free speech. You can't have it all your own way.

    Except it was removed because it was posted on an admin account and Karl wanted to avoid controversy. I could go and repost it right this minute on my other account and It wouldn't be removed as it wasn't racist when you actually read the full sentence where I called him a whining bitch because then its pretty clear I was referring not to his comments about being racially abused but this line

    "When countries get fined what I probably spend on a night out in London what do you expect?"

    I don’t even know what you do or what you are called so I wouldn’t know where to start to cyberstalk you or contact your clients. Now accusing me of that could be libellous.

    You did say Simon W made the whining bitch comment based on the colour of his skin. It might have been your opinion but it seems i’m not the only one who thinks the comment had no basis. It was the reasoning behind my correspondence yesterday, people lose a sense of realism when racism gets mentioned.

    Except I only said I suspect it's you. Even if its not they are using your posts in their campaign but you don't give a feck how your lies impact others do you.

    I am in no way calling you a racist but I think your turn of phrase was regrettable because unless you have walked in someone else’s shoes you can’t know what he feels

    For the record I removed Simon's post not because I thought it was a racist comment but because I wanted him to set up a personal account and not use his admin account which is for site maintenance and the prediction league

    Simon is a football fan with some valid opinions that can be controversial but at the same time interesting

    As a moderator or Admin you sometimes need to post in a different way than if you was a registered forum member

    This is why I asked Simon to set up a personal account.. if he had of posted the removed comment using his personal account I would not have removed it

    I can understand that people might read the 'Whining bitch' part and jump to the wrong conclusions and I accept that maybe I could have worded it better but the problem is I clarified myself and Storck just keeps doubling down in his attack on me. As I said my comment was just relating to a single comment which does come across a little as whining and wanting to feel like he has got revenge not his general comments on the situation.

    And that is a perfectly valid opinion @SimonW@SimonW

    You certainly should not be persecuted for that.
