But I do think you should be willing to consider changing your view in the face of information that may cast doubt on your own. Debate is good, or so they say! 😍😍😍 Probably Oscar Wilde who said, " I would rather be quiet and be thought of as a fool than open my mouth and confirm it" I accept that's not great for a fans forum but social media is full of people with little knowledge of a subject and offering opinion. It honestly doesn't add much to a debate if the opinions dont have any substance but are just looking for a reaction. Theres probably only one on here who is consistently doing that, some people might see him/ her as a character...I don't, but that's just my opinion.

wellfan Posted 4 hours ago Report Share Posted 4 hours ago Imagine how boring this forum would be without differing opinions. It’d be just like that self-congratulatory circle-jerk over at P&B. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't even do p&b, I love our own wee forum, full of differing opinions, doom and gloom merchants and s***e comedians!! 🤪 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But football is and always has been a sport where spectators criticise and ‘offer advice’ to professional players when they are nowhere near at the same level of those players whom they are telling how to do their job better. Social media has obviously given those type of people (me included, I admit) a much wider platform to air such ‘advice’. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually ive ended up agreeing with you re " the bois" and the never ending fines but I won't make a habit of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
