So you just had to post a thread you damn well knew was going to have this reaction, your either a bit slow or a **** stirrer.
Don’t feel too sorry for him, I’m already halfway through knitting his first pair of red and white socks!
congratulations Boris and ...... CARRIE !!!!!! For Christ’s sake put the knives away and don’t let her near any matches
So don’t open the thread then if you only want to discuss football- my point is don’t turn an event into personal attacks and politics
Tbf I don't either of the parents will be reading the BBS. I'm sure there should a twitter anouncement that you could put your congratulations on.
Fair play to Carrie; all this pandemic thing going on and she's stuck at home with two kids under 55....
Whilst 20,000 plus have died whilst he's been suffering from Covid, he has now through paternity got something to get him out of PM questions for another week or two.
I think I tried to bring football (and humour) into the thread At the end of the day the post is non-football related - and so are the replies. If you don't like the non-football posts and the non-football replies then stick to the purely football ones. I believe the people that administer this forum welcome non-football posts, especially as there is no active football to discuss. Opening a thread that is non-football related is fair game; by that I mean that there are several viewpoints (as there are with football) so by starting a non-football related topic then one must be open to a differing viewpoint even if this means it does not marry that of ones own. I try to temper my views regarding the politics - I could quite easily have been brutal with this topic - I haven't although one or two have tried to goad me already. .
Because I’m not a narrow minded bigot and feel anything positive can be discussed. There are many non football threads on here, but some people now appear to always want to have personal digs at others. You are correct it seems inevitable that some people want to drag everything into politics, I’ll make you a promise never to post on your threads or comments then you don’t need to post on mine. That way you can spend all your time on what appears to be be pent up anger against a couple having a child.
