Spot On!!

OK snowball can be a bit irritating, but think there's no need for all this nastiness towards him. It's like playground bullying around here sometimes.
I actually kind of agree with his basic argument that this website has become so ridiculous recently in fabricating rumours that I've stopped checking it regularly as before.

Exactly my point. I used to enjoy reading this forum.

Now it's now better than that noddy transfer rumours one

The word you are looking for is NO

[winchester_royal]

Oh FFS Snowball, get over yourself

[comeonyouroyals]

Also on the first page 16 out of the 25 have either been reported by Fordham or been in the national papers or Sky sports so they must deserve a mention, which to me isn't a bad ratio of real stories to people making it up.

So, let me get this straight, you actually took the time to collate and type out every single rumour posted on here?

I'm pretty sure you could have saved yourself a lot of time by simply typing:

"Every rumour on here is currently incorrect except McCleary, and Pogrebnyak."

Great thing is he started 2 of those threads

[Snowball]

Correct. How does that change anything?

One was to report what I'd read on Sky Sports News
the second was total speculation and marked as such

Classy player has had some brilliant games for Arsenal but lost his way a little and fell out of favour
Had a season on loan in South America but that club can't afford him. Arsenal want 6 Million EUROS, what's that 5M quid?
Or he may go on a season-long loan again. For Reading he'd be a stand-our DM but he gets forward too, gets goals


Oh and BTW I was totally RIGHT. He did go on a season-long loan again




What I've done is a lot different to making things up for fun

It's not hard to type out the name of the player at the top of a thread
and when you've got to the bottom of page three, sorting them alphabetically.

It's just a name, usually a whole WORD, sometimes two (but I have inner strength)

YOUR Every might mean 5-10-15-20-25-30-35-40-45-50-55-60

I decided to check exactly HOW sh!t the forum had become

WHY do they "deserve a mention"? Don't most people here say they are crap or quote Hob-Nob anyway?

There is only 2 threads on the first page with people claiming we are set to sign someone with out any form of media back up. All the other threads are correctly labled rumours or speculation.

So you say the threads with media sources don't deserve to be up then you say you put that Matt Mills one up because Sky reported (which you didn't even bother linking for anyone else to read) it but of course that one deserves it. Also out of the 9 on the first page that don't have media sources 2 are general convos and 2 are not from this transfer window so that leaves only 5 which are people possibly making up.

I love the way the little mental thinks references to taking an inflatable palm tree to an inflatable themed end of season party is some sort of insult that makes me look stupid. When in fact, it's entirely the other way around.

He reminds me of the frothing lunatic sitting in front of us who decided to have a massive rant that because we'd brought inflatables and were having a good time, Reading were going to lose and it would be all our fault.

He was also clearly mentally unwell.

this sort of post does you no credit at all IR.

Yeah, I only get credited with talking balls afterall.

Getting there...

[ScottishRoyal]

Good god, Jesus wept.

Snowball to claim that everyone on this forum is a fool and lacking intelligence is actually rather insulting. I'm pretty sure that I speak for most on here when I say that we're able to view a collection of threads and take the rational view that they are, on the whole, mostly rubbish. We don't need a list of unsigned names to prove that point.

Now please, do yourself and everybody else on here a favour and give it a rest.

[From Despair To Where?]

Just one small observation.


Post season, no actual football + transfer window opening = lots of spurious bollox. Throw in some new found wealth and the whole thing is magnified.

It happens every year. Just take it for what it is, bar a couple of WUMs (and we all know who they are), bored people trying to stimulate a discussion.

Does anyone speak this guy's language and want to translate for me?

[Elmer Park]

For goodness sake everyone. None of us 'own' this message board and we supposedly live in a Country of free speech. Therefore if you don't like an OP's views or are not interested in the subject have any of you considered just moving on to another topic ? It's not compulsory to make sure your user names appear on every thread.

Anyone who was visiting HNA for the first time and opened this thread first would assume from the personal insults that it was for primary school children.

I make no apology for my rant because I know a number of people who have said they don't read HNA any more because every thread degenerates into puerile arguing instead of staying on the original subject of the thread. How on earth have we had four pages of bickering on this thread ? It is hardly the first time this has happened either. Why don't some of you meet up once a week, call each other names and throw wet sponges at each other.

I know my plea will fall on deaf ears but I'm just trying to turn this message board into a pleasant one to visit and one where you might have a chance of working out we all support the same team.

[winchester_royal]

How odd that you promote free speech, and then go on to say that only a certain type of speech should be used on this forum

[Platypuss]

Surely it's better to keep the bickering on this pointless thread rather than spread it over ones which have at least a little value.

[Gordons Cumming]

Anyone think Snowball is autistic or has aspergers ?

Just wondered................

God told me he is, so it must be true.

Hey, Ian............don't pigeonhole me.
