On a previous message you said you’d been going since the 60’s. If true, your behaviour for someone for your age is embarrassing. Take a look at yourself. If I was able to read this thread and ignore your comments, I would. I concur with other posters that this thread should be closed now. Too many strong feelings and insults (myself included).

Threads aren't closed unless they become little more than slanging matches and this one certainly doesn't fit the bill. It isn't too difficult to ignore comments from any particular individual and in fact there is one fairly prominent poster on HOL who I feel is nothing more than a pompous pr1ck but I don't rise to the bait

For what it’s worth, I’m 28 and have been a season ticket holder at the back of block d in the lower holmesdale for 20/21 years. I was at the Grimsby game and hated being next to the singing section, will be thinking long and hard about whether I want to renew for next season now TJ, I was in block C for Grimsby . I am a season ticket holder in the Arthur. When I was your age I used to stand on the Homesdale. Thirty years on I find standing all the match a bit tiresome. I loved being back on the Homesdale where I go at least every season, but I prefer the Arthur. It’s old school. The seats are crap as are the toilets. There is a post blocking my view it’s dark but I love it. There is a great atmosphere and I can strongly recommend the switch. We sit we stand and we sing all match.

Moderators should be impartial, rather than be abusive towards individual contributors. I don't think any moderators have ever claimed to be impartial and it's fine for you to think of them as pr1cks, too.

Far be it from me to act as ME 'Defence lawyer' but whilst of course he could have used more temperate language,he expressed his view about an individual but never actually named that person, accordingly there was no ad-hominem attack on a named poster. Anyway, this is getting away from the subject matter.

Just to end this debate - yes, the mods all act impartially, because even if one moderator chose to turn a blind eye to an offensive post, the certainty is that another mod would not. We moderate impartially, but we are also posters here and the two are entirely different things.
