It is all good when you criticize players...
...But when you start to wish players get injured just because you think the player is not good enough is crossing the line. I mean I don't get it with some fans that we have here. Is it asking to much to wish the players and the coaches of the team all the best as they represent the nation? Honestly it is a shame, a damn shame if you ask me smh...

Agree. When people are wishing players who are trying their best for the country ill it leaves me fuming. We can be critical but there should be a red line we cannot and should not cross. I just cannot imagine how vile someone has to be to really wish any player gets hurt and misses the tournament. We should not wish such on our opponents let alone our team. Really shameful.

I KPOM this statement!
The difficulties of statistical thinking describes a puzzling limitation of our mind: our excessive confidence in what we believe we know, and our apparent inability to acknowledge the full extent of our ignorance and the uncertainty of the world we live in. We are prone to overestimate how much we understand about the world and to underestimate the role of chance in events -- Daniel Kahneman (2011), Winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics

Re: It is all good when you criticize players...
I wouldn’t merge the threads. This is a serious issue that deserves its own discussion. It certainly doesn’t fall into a generic category of “if everyone started opening threads...”.

Let us see if there is an appetite for discussing this particular issue further.
The original quote(s) would be helpful though.

Why? Because its a thread opened by one o the favorite beloved? If this was a thread opened by someone you people hate would you be finding out whether we have "appetite?"Damunk wrote:Good point.

Re: It is all good when you criticize players...
No, it does not. The gentleman who wished injury on Ighalo and Akpeyi is free to say whatever he likes. Yes, his comments were abhorrent and shocking to the conscience, but he has the right to say what he said. I criticized him on that thread because we have always had a non-spoken long-standing agreement that wishing injury on any player, no matter who the player plays for, is absolutly disgraceful. But it is not a sin, it is not a crime and it is not against forum rules. He can say whatever he likes.waka-man wrote:I wouldn’t merge the threads.

To now make it a topic of discussion on another thread-- specifically when this is not an original thought, but a response to a post-- is very very nonsensical. And the only reason it is being tolerated is because one of the favorite beloved lovely posters made this thread. Let us not be ashamed to be honest! This thread would have been merged immediately if it was opened by a hated poster.

You've always been paranoid and full of conspiracy theories and the level of pig-headedly arguing feelings as if facts is what is truly "nauseating" on this board.danfo driver wrote:Why?

You've always taken positions and accused others opposed to it of having agendas based solely on your feelings.
But mad as all that is, it's allowed.....
There are not many active mods/admins on this board - far fewer than you'd ever believe - so feel free to identify those people you refer to and their so-called "Beloveds''. Also those "hated" ones.
When things go your way how come you don't attribute it to your being a 'beloved' of a mod? :lol
Abi na only you get sense for here?
Its your silly ego that is being hurt here, just becos your suggestion has been overruled by not just one person, but by a good number of reasonable, so-called 'beloveds'.
Abegi...stop being such a drama queen.

what has happened to this forum?
"I first saw David Rocastle play in 1983 for the youth team. I remember coming home excitedly from the match and telling my family, "I've just watched the nearest thing to a Brazilian footballer you are ever likely to see - and he comes from Lewisham." - David Dein on Rocky Rocastle
Re: It is all good when you criticize players...
What are you on about? Baba calm yourself down. This is not the first time I have heard a member of the forum wish injuries to our players. The particular incident you are dwelling is just the latest incident and I think it is time it is called out. I am not sure why you feel the need to write an epistle just to drive your irrelevant point across but this is a serious topic of discussion hence the reason I opened the thread. If you don't get that then it is a damn shame.danfo driver wrote:No, it does not. The gentleman who wished injury on Ighalo and Akpeyi is free to say whatever he likes.

No one should be banned. Our collective verbal humiliation of he who should not be named should be enough

Opinion? Gotta be kidding me. Seriously? Wishing injury is now an opinion on CE? Wow!
I second the motion to ban the piece of s$&/& that Ighalo injured.
