Given the history of, let’s say robust dialogue on the forum over the years, are posters going to be less casual about the material and comments they post on here?

The forum, after another nail delivered recently, is on it's last legs anyway.

As for your question, I'd assume the current moderator will do his usual and monitor the forum closely. :lol:

Would Gary Neville get away with this nowadays..................:lol:

Gary Neville on playing against Liverpool:
"I used to love playing at Anfield, 90 minutes worth of insults about my appearance, mainly from blokes who looked like extras off Planet of the Apes. I remember one game, a little chubby lad shouted "Oi Gary, my Dad says you're a w*nker!
" | turned round and said "Yeah? I've got 8 Premier League medals, what have you got besides diabetes? You fat little tw*t!"
He was in floods of tears, that's what the rivalry is all about.

He was in floods of tears?! 😂

I think Neville imagined that. 

The fact is people should behave themselves, but if they don't that should not be a matter for the police. Being verbally abusive to someone should never be a matter for the authorities, regardless of what is said, unless it is threatening, IMHO. That's pretty much how it was until the 1980s and it's how it is in the US.

Don’t know where you got the cut n paste bit but hopefully whoever put that together is first to be prosecuted for crimes against spelling - it’s colour !!

something must be done about this blatant spellaphobia !! 😑

I'm not going to watch it as the law is still in place as written,

therefore the above is merely reactionary clickbait for brain-dead trolls who need someone else to hate in order to divert from their self-loathing
