Nice one Mate..!! So Willo I’m intrigued I assume you are now retired what did you do before retiring to the coast with Mrs Willo? You assume correctly. Anyway, this is veering off the subject matter and I believe that we should all focus our attentions on discussing potential signings.

'sesquipedalian loquaciousness' It means - A predilection by the intelligentsia to engage in the manifestation of prolix exposition through a buzzword disposition form of communication notwithstanding the availability of more comprehensible, punctiliously applicable, diminutive alternatives. Also known as "gross verbosity". So there......

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

He's given me a yellow before, then a warning of a red, for having the temerity to question an "itk" posters credentials. Power control gone to his head. Surely your job as a moderater is to be impartial?

It's a shame that you can't follow your own advice but it seems that like your hero Mark Clattenburg you like to make it all about yourself I have lost count of the times over the years where I have asserted "Let's not turn this into yet another Willo thread" (Or words to this effect) so I have certainly attempted to steer the debate away from 'Yours truly' on numerous occasions.And of course I tried in this thread! Contrary to what you believe I certainly do NOT seek the limelight.I regard myself as very much a midge in the swarm on HOL and certainly no panjandrum. I appreciate that this post has veered away from the subject matter but so did your accusations and I felt I was within my rights to counter them. Edited by Willo (31 Aug 2020 4.12pm)
