I think that was more the issue, that he’d put in this great effort in writing a post and some of the replies and insults he got back were just a load of shite. The same posters would then take pleasure, it seemed, from the team doing bad as they’d then use this as a stick to beat PoP with.
For all the gratitude he used to get the endless amount of shite must have been tiring and I don’t blame him for not handling it great. I think if I’d put that much effort into my posts, surprisingly I don’t, then I’d be a lot more snappy with the mindless few being dicks constantly.
From 2013, when where there was a good, factual debate going on : (actually on squad depth; iago aspas etc").
"You're like the lad who joins a lotto syndicate, disagrees with the numbers picked, the syndicate wins 100 million, your share is 20 million, and you're still asking why they picked those six numbers. "
"The analogy is that even when things are going well, you're that little voice at the back who has to try and get attention by focusing on minor and inconsequential negatives. In other words, you backed a horse, FSG backed a different one, you complained about it and now that FSG's horse is doing quite well, you are searching for trivial complaints in order to reinforce your original point. Priests and mountains of sugar, in other words."
"Again I'll ask - what difference does it make to your life if Aspas plays or not, and if Borini is on loan or not?"
"Well then let me apologise for being an arse, if that's what you're really trying to say, because it doesn't come across that way at times. I shall perhaps, in future, keep my opinion to myself and let you post your thoughts unhindered. I would, though, urge you to be more direct in your points, and less rhetorical. No matter what your intentions are, sometimes the posts you make seem more damning of Rodgers, than questioning of him (or the club)2
