Begbie + Blair_C , first and last warning !!

People may ask questions in here , when they need any help, it should be fun, reading the boards by getting a qualified reply .

Everybody is welcome in the FORUM SPORT

I am not tolerating any racism, and any further stupid comment of you will be deleted .

Wie gehts, Jocky!
You and I are pals and I dont want to annoy you, but dont you think you have gone a bit over-the-top with your threats to Blair & Begbie, especially since those comments were made back in September of last year? I don't even think those boys post here any longer.

Apart from that, I somewhat agree with them... I dont like baseball and would not like to see it taught to children in Scotland (besides they already have rounders which is almost the same) and i would prefer to see Scottish kids learning to play Scottish sport. I don't like McDonalds, and I dont like the idea of any American chain restaurants in Scotland. We have our own cultures here in the UK, and I dont think we need to keep bringing in American things... a little bit is OK, but there is such thing as over-kill. I dont consider that racist at all.

Sorry if these comments have been unwelcome.

Hello T-brox,

thanx for your post .

Baseball here in Europe is probably not very popular ,
but it doesn't mean , that it should be forbidden.

Mc Donalds is every where in the world , the only thing you can do , in case you don't like their products , is to stop eating there.It is as well worth to discuss FAST FOOD !!

What i don't like ,is that the two mentioned members tell people in a very blunt way ,to leave these boards .
Here in the Forum Sport can everybody express their oppinion or ask for help or advice .
Just the way of a reply is very important.
I want that people feel well here , like i do !!

All the best

It doesnt appear that we are going to be able to agree on this, J... seems we are both reading the posts differently!

No one is talking about forbidding baseball... i think they were only suggesting that people here are not interested in it, so why dont those boys come over and teach a different sport (shinty was the example given)?

McDonalds; I dont like it, so i dont eat there. But I think it was just being used as an example of american corporate influence in the UK? There is a well-known junction in Glasgow where 3 of the 4 corners have American fast food shops on them... maybe all 4 corners have it now, i cant remember (but i will check in 3 weeks when i go up!). Thats partly what I meant by over-kill.

And, as far as those 2 boys who are probably no longer members telling people "bluntly" to leave the boards... I don't see that at all. Read it again, maybe? I honestly dont know where you are getting that.

Still friends, i hope!

I agree with you that those posts werent particularly welcoming!

You mean on Sunday? Poor Klos had no one defending him, and Albertz was using his right foot, so he wasnt getting any power into the shots. It was a terrible day for us!
