He's left the Board. Which is good as far as i'm concerned because he was blinkered and kept having the same opinion even though it was addressed by posters on here and the club over and over.
What if the protest is to sit down and shut up?!NSRailings wrote: ↑Wed Jan 18, 2023 9:14 pmCareful, they might use that as thinking you support the protest. I prefer SB's "sit down shut up".
By being 'blinkered' does that mean he didn't share the general veiw of the board? Being 'addressed by posters on here' mean that he wouldn't be educated by those that know better? I must agree that I didn't agree with much of what he said but I too find myself 'being addressed' because I don't actually agree with a lot that is posted on here, which probably makes me blinkered. I do have a point of veiw that differs from the main stream of posters on here, but I just see it as a difference of opinion, and I don't feel the need to be 'addressed'.NSRailings wrote: ↑Wed Jan 18, 2023 9:32 pmHe's left the Board.

Yep, what always set this forum apart from others was that it managed to be a broad church where not just diverse views, but real diversity was not only tolerated but respected. Most here don't agree with my opinion that Fratton Park is a turd that the owners are wasting money polishing, but I keep saying it anyway as it's what I believe. I donn't agree with much of what Betelgeuse, or indeed several others, have to say either, but I respect their right to express their opinions, (so long as it's done within the bounds of common courtesy/decency).Blue Walter wrote: ↑Wed Jan 18, 2023 10:17 pmBy being 'blinkered' does that mean he didn't share the general veiw of the board?

Let's face it, if we all had the same views there'd be nothing to discuss.
Never an issue with BGs or anyones opinions at all. Only time I used to get drawn in back in the day (and still do occasionally to my folly) was if people post provably incorrect “facts”.Blue Walter wrote: ↑Wed Jan 18, 2023 10:17 pmBy being 'blinkered' does that mean he didn't share the general veiw of the board?

Yes, I agree 100% with the 'fact' post when, in fact, it is just an opinion.Sam_Brown wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 1:53 amNever an issue with BGs or anyones opinions at all.

Someone saying they’d like to see us do better on the pitch or that the owners should invest more in the playing side absolutely no issues with. Arguing 1+1 = 4 and defending that as an “opinion” irks me. I try not to take this place as seriously as of late and if I still do please just put it down to me being too young to know any better and needing to learn a bit more self control lol.
On BG leaving - I saw him post very recently so unsure why it’s assumed he’s left. Checking his profile he was last active on here yesterday (Wednesday 18th).
Why is it based in the North Stand?Pompey1984+1 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 18, 2023 9:33 pmWhat if the protest is to sit down and shut up?!NSRailings wrote: ↑Wed Jan 18, 2023 9:14 pmCareful, they might use that as thinking you support the protest. I prefer SB's "sit down shut up".
So is it all they want I thought it was already in the public domain maybe they read less than most or just which enters their little part of the multiversePompey1984+1 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 8:01 am
Any idea who SCMP are?
Also, how much revenue is generated through the health and safety works? How about every ticket sold, and penny spent in the stadium by anyone who's in attendance that wouldn't be if those seats weren't available for sale.
It seems to me and judging by the banner on the twitter account the major axe to grind is around the sentence Eisner said at the guild hall about not needing him if you wanted to stay I. League one, take ages to do up the stadium and improve the academy.
All of those things are happening, I think everyone would have liked them to be done quicker but things unfortunately take time. Lots of things have just happened e.g. buying Roko other things have been announced, then in a timely manner started and completed.
I actually think I'm more excited about this statement that who the manager is going to be.
