Have heard that Facebook racial stuff is being investigated. Not sure how true that is but if true, recent abuse on Facebook has been dealt with big style by the law in recent months.

Just read your posting Forever Blue.............perhaps you can clarify a few things for me if you will,you said you just want City to have a future,something i think we can all agree on,but if that future depended on us playing in red and had a dragon for our badge,what would your response be ??...also you said something to the affect that we had to respect other peoples point of view and not call them Judas,can i assume therefor that you firmly believe in that age old principle of...i don't agree with what some people say but i will defend their right to say it,in your opinion does that right extend to racists ??

Am I not allowed my own honest opinions ?
I never called them names or told them to go etc etc.

yes you are Annis , but i seem to remember you telling everyone to get behind TG & VT when they first arrived , then you turn around and say you don't and never have trusted them . i don't understand how you can say that ? :roll:


I seem to remember Blue saying these were the real deal and people we could trust, even to the put of not to boo at the games to put them off investing in the Club.

I want us to have a future, but I dont like the changes and I believe we should remain Blue/badge/Nickname etc .
I am glad they have compromised, but of course I would still like to remain what I have only known since 1972 when I first started. Racists comments should never be allowed in anything and I have repeated this on several occasions.

While I like nuclearblue's many postings generally, and he adds some interesting points to the debates, this does send out the wrong message to our Malaysian friends that we tolerate racist attacks.

I'm not saying ban them forever like some are, but we have to take at least some action.


I understand your anger and even your point DY but I am also someone who hates witch hunts. NuclearBlue made a right dick of himself and that signature about not being a Malaysian Wh***** was pathetic and embarrassing and apparently he posted a lot worse although I didn't see it.

However, he has apologised and put his hands up unreservedly. We could have done without that sympathy seeking thread he started about quitting the board but in the main he has taken his punishment and shown regret.

So we can't then say that's not good enough and want to punish him more because that is a witch hunt and IMO witch hunts are no better than the behaviour which got NB into trouble in the first place.

Therefore he has served his time and should be allowed to move on and express his passionate opinion properly in serious adult debate.

agree with every word.
