The unofficial AFC Rushden & Diamonds messageboard

It's neither. It's the UCL fan page on facebook. It's not run BT the UCL. Neither is the UCL fan zone twitter page. I doubt anyone on the UCL management can use a computer.

As "slightly disappointing" equates to moaning in your world, you must regard an awful lot of people as moaners. Anyway, I'm not going to continue with this futile discussion as it is clearly a dialogue of the deaf. I won't even rise to the bait of being called an idiot as your comments merely betray your own inadequacies. Anyway, this will be my last post on this message board after c. 10 years as it is a sad state of affairs when reasonable comments are shouted down and become the subject of abuse.

It seems RH was just itching to moan before even getting some facts.!

Pot and kettle there I'm afraid my boy.
At the time of the original post there was NO indication that the board hadn't made the decision. IF you re read the original post I'm not actually slagging anybody off. I was not itching to moan just wanted a situation clarifying. Never mind though.

Woahhh RH who did you kill for everyone sticking knives in your back?


You saw the same post on the UCL page as I did, and before all the added comments!!! And just wanted the reasons behind it!! So next time I read something about the club I love I'll just ignore it, not that I'll read much on the UCL page :x and if Paul quits over them using part of his report that's his choice, sad but by complaining it just fueled the fire that we think we are better than we are!

I don't want this to drag on.... but want to explain something.

The reason I offered to withdraw from the media team wasn't because people used my report and picture without the courtesy of asking me or letting me know and at least putting it in context. That was annoying but I'm not that "precious"....

It was because my response and reaction to criticism on that site had led to a stupid escalation of abuse of the club and the ban on using anything from us. As someone put it on our own Facebook page...a PR disaster. I was disappointed I let it happen and it caused the club to be dragged through the mire... poor judgement on my part.

People.... well most people... have been very supportive including officials, fans and people outside the club and it means a lot to me.

Let's just leave it there and I can hopefully fade into the background with lessons learnt, a thicker skin, and title winning run in to enjoy.

It comes with the territory I'm afraid. I could write about the weather and it would get the same reaction from some of the people on this forum. You seriously have to question why the moderator who openly stated that it was a mistake and that it later transpired the CLUB had no knowledge of it left it up there. Although I know deep down why it was left there. I think that statement alone says all that needs to be said about certain members of the board. I know if I'd posted the same statement under my alias it would've been deleted as soon as it had been seen and mostly ignored by the very same people that have castigated me. Oh well I prokisebi will lose no sleep over it.

Anyway as Paul says I'm leaving it now.

Lee/RH/Kermit. Yes I can read Twitter too.

I heard a rumour that the board have links to ISIS. I demand to know why we are aligning ourselves with a Muslim extremist group!

The board haven't denied it, so I have no reason to doubt the validity of this rumour; even though it has come from a source just as unreliable as the UCL Facebook page. :roll:

Anyway, glad to hear that common sense has finally prevailed and Paul is going to continue. It would be sad to think that a few idiots should force out one of our valuable volunteers.

:roll:
