    I guess now it's time for me to give up.

    All things must come to an end and it's time for me to find another forum to be outspoken on.

    Posting on forums has a shelf life and my mate/boyfriend who no longer posts on here says he hasn't regretted it for a second. There are numerous reasons why I think the time is right to stop posting. The only reason I have stated this in a thread is that once you've said it publicly you can't go back - whereas if you just slink away there's always that temptation to reappear. Well I can't do that now.

    That stings coming from someone with 112 posts.

    I thought you’d left the forum for good? Surely the number of posts on a forum you’re very publicly said you no longer use and will never use is irrelevant to you?

    It's an internet forum. Don't take it too seriously.

    Well, if you're dead set on it then si thi.

    I know we've rarely seen eye to eye, but it will be a genuine loss, board will definitely be a less interesting place.

    And, as another band said, "ride, shoot straight and speak the truth".

    Another great singer once said:

    and now, the end is near
    its time to face, the final posting
    Conan, i'll say it clear
    you talked such dross and negativity

    you said, we wunt go up
    and Mamadou can't score in open play
    and more, much more than this
    you talked so negatively

    But with 55+ years of watching Barnsley and equally as long having the ability to read and form an opinion

    Not going to say good riddance because, though I rarely ever agree with you, I think it's crap when genuine longstanding posters disappear. But honestly Conan, have you ever thought that maybe the problem isn't this forum but you? There are plenty of posters who are very critical and outspoken about the club or about our fans, but are still capable of having reasoned debates with people on here about it. You're incapable of that. You're whiny and self-indulgent. You hold grudges and start petty feuds. It seems to me that having people disagree with you isn't enough for you, that you need to feel like you're being persecuted for your views too.

    Nobody is hounding you off this forum. Cya

    I’ll miss your opinions.

    You might be as much fun at parties as Iain Duncan Smith but I love you nevertheless.

    I shall miss you.

    Your opinions are controversial but, in my opinion, not expressed to troll others.

    You're a good poster, and I wish you'd reconsider.

    It’ll be that poster who puts something negative then never replies :)
