Haha, conspiracy theories wild on here, he got out of his contract with Wigan to eventually sign for us? He always comes across as a bit nuts, but not even he would be that daft.

Wow, another one to add to my ignore list, bye bye Burt

Disregarding my opinion is basically saying ok you can think what you like I don't agree. disagreeing with my opinion is admission that I have an opinion but that yours differs. however all I experience on here from you and others on a regular basis is a regular bashing of my opinion, and not only that, claims that I my opinion is actually wrong.

how can an opinion be wrong? it cannot, its an opinion. i'm sick of coming on here for a chinwag and spending endless hours trying to justify myself to folk on here who seem to have nothing better to do other than sift through my posts and delight themselves with damning responses for their own benefit.

it has taken at least 4 pages of this kind of onslaught that i'm used to from here before someone has actually come back to me with a decent reply, evidence or constructive objection.

you wonder why folk get annoyed on here, you wonder why folk don't go to games any more. who needs enemies with fellow fans like this?

I stand by and maintain my points raised in this topic and will say nothing more on the matter. this is a forum for opinions, and it is my opinion. I suggest if you are the ones who don't like it that you are the ones who refrain from rising to the temptation to respond.

how thoughtful and grown up of you, thank you.

You seriously don't understand that you can have an incorrect opinion? Really? If I told you it was my opinion that the world was flat or that black was white you're telling me that by default that would be correct because it was my opinion? Opinions can be right, wrong, well informed, misinformed and many shades in between. I'm not arguing that you shouldn't be allowed to have your opinion. I'm arguing that it's wrong and I've explained why. Interesting, don't you think, that YOU'VE changed the point of discussion from whether your opinion is right or wrong to one of 'my opinion shouldn't be challenged whether it is or not because its mine'. Might I suggest that if you don't want your opinion challenged you don't post it on a public forum!

You also accuse people of dismissing your opinion but that's exactly what you're doing! You are not the arbiter of what is valid and what is not. I've given you good reasons why your initial premise was wrong. Despite your dismissiveness and obstinacy I've never once resorted to impoliteness or attempted to belittle your opinion. Merely tried to offer an alternative viewpoint that I believe illustrates why you were mistaken in your belief. I'll say it again; why not afford me the same respect?

You are convinced you are right. Explain to me why. Explain how investing potentially in the region of a million pounds on a new contract for Sam Tomkins would generate a nett profit when we move him on for a few tens of thousands (even assuming that anyone would pay it in the first place!)

Any chance of an actual answer this time or would you prefer to keep bickering?
