We're all foreign anyway, even the British are from northern mainland Europe.
I think something like only 5% of the population on these isles are true BNP style British natives

What's African got to do with anything? How can you generalise that Africans haven't been to SB?

I was talking in the majority wise, but yes I was wrong on that instance and should have wrote that instead of saying ALL. Don't see how it's racial though.

I hope you see my earlier points which you deleted have been vindicated.

As I say. First to start, first to cry.

And I didn't even report that comment the Chelsea poster made as well.

People use JA606 from all over the world, including a fair few users from Africa. It is of no relevance or of any importance to us, neither is the team they support.

SLM, I really couldn't care what you think of me. You get constantly slated on this board for your constant insults of Manchester United players and you seem to enjoy winding up the fans over it. That's why I don't like you, so accept that and move on.

'However things we have no interest on the site:
Race, Religion and Politics. As far as we are concerned it is an anonymous SPORTS forum.'

----------------------

I take your point. But it is tricky to draw the line, isn't it? Lots of people put their place of origin / current location in their name as it somehow speaks for who they are, where their comments are coming from. If we can have posters who are defined by their coming from Dublin / South London / Norway (or for that matter, me and the fact that I used to live in Russia), I don't see how we can object to 'Arab Manc'. If we do, we're open to the accusation that we regard being an Arab somehow more provocative or offensive than being Irish. (I'd also note that Arabs can be Christians or Jews as well as Muslims, so this isn't a religious issue.)

If AM has been at fault in off-topic racially orientated exchanges, that's a separate issue and he ought to be warned / penalised / banned like anyone else.

If he hasn't been asked to change his name, then a lot of people will feel let down. However, Admin 2 seems to contradict you on this question.

Me and my work buddies here in Botswana love ja606.

I've changed my username, I already mentioned in my article that the admins felt it was wise to do so to stop the abuse from other posters. I did it, now let's move on. Everyone knows who I am now.

If my moderator comment is correct, you posted this on the leeds board

"I literally can't stand Leeds they're a disgusting club. Their crest pissses me off for some reason as well, it looks like a florist logo....." Who would want to talk about the worst club known to mankind that is Leeds anyway?"

Unlike you I have my own mind and my own views and I have a strong enough character to take the abuse and laugh at it. I don't need to hide behind others like u do.

SLM, you are behaving like the only child in the room.
A serious conversation is going on and your personal antipathy towards AM has nothing to do with it. Whether AM is a good poster or not has nothing to do with it.

Admin1, The artist formerly known as "sandy brown" has changed his name to "adolf brown".

Now, any chance you can ban him......??

Can we all stop arguing and laugh at Liverpool being turned down by Brendan Rodgers?

He didnt hide behind anyone or moan about the abuse. He merely let the other posters know who he was - what he had changed his name to. Other posters then asked why he had changed his name and he told us.

Then I don't pretend to have been racially abused when it was me that started it.

First to start but first to cry.

Hide behind others? The majority of the decent fans on this board love the club and the players. Are they hiding behind people as well? I always back my club and whoever plays for the crest, but "fans" like you don't. That's why I don't like you, you're basically insulting the manager and the club for purchasing such players. You are not a supporter to me, and other people have that view of you too.

I don't dislike SLM if he has negative views on players, I have more of an issue with users who are resigned to defeat before a game kicks off, not after it.

For example SLM can have a go at who ever after a game, that doesn't bother me, but before the last league fixture kicked off, Very_Cleverley_Done, was repeatedly saying it's over, City have it, don't worry about it now, before kick off. Things like that I'll tell them to shut it. As 90 minutes approached, I'm sure even he started believing we would do it!
