I’d say it’s the one paper that doesn’t preach or harangue.Big_Bad_World said:PragueAddick said:
One of your better interventions, BBW, I will give you that. However your last sentence is obviously problematic. For it to have happened it would have involved Spanners reading the Guardian.Big_Bad_World said:Sounds like he just didn't 'understand'. That's on him, not us.
Although, to be fair, that's a really cutting headline. I imagine it really put those he was so cross with to the proverbial sword. I'm sure that taught them.
We're a broad 'place where people congregate to worship a make believe deity' so am sure that all forms of rag on both the left and right are read, cover to cover, to enable a balanced viewpoint to be formed. We're certainly not the type of people to read one side and then dismiss the other without ever having read it. That would mean we'd only ever hear our own voices, repeatedly, fading in to the distance of ones own self made chamber
That said, people don't read the Guardian. The Guardian preaches at it's readership.

Of course I care. I'm a compassionate kind of guy and full of empathy for others' plights, regardless of their worthiness
Just pop down the The Valley next Wednesday evening, wearing your anorak and with transpotting notebook in hand, and you'll be made very welcome.
Elfsborg will even buy you a drink (he's the one with shorter legs than AFKA).
If I turned up at Charlton then the fiery gates of Hellwall would definitely be my only destination when I either rot in the ground or am burnt to ashes (I have no preferred method. Am happy to be chucked on a skip if truth be told. Why? because I'll be dead and none the wiser)
Thanks for the offer, though. It's the thought that counts
It's a big bad world out there.
PS: Are you going to Hellwall tomorrow or following our match thread on here?

Right on! Because there's not a man, woman or child that supports Charlton and reads the Sun.PragueAddick said:

My remark was what in modern parlance is known as banter. Something which the object of the banter appeared to appreciate.Redskin said:

Quite. One should try to grow old gracefully. That's why I've declared war on anyone who uses the latest and most egregious abuse of the English language... "woke" :-)Addickted said:You're too old @PragueAddick. It's "bants".1 -

I used to worry about everything - but now that I'm an old git, I couldn't give a toss any more.
Life's too short.
Now my mantra is "Grow old disgracefully, let's have some fun while we still can!"
PS: Bants, of course!

I think the best thing about the article is that it will reach a wider audience and I think that is the least Tom Brandhost deserves. His video is absolutely brilliant. Perhaps he might get some opportunities from people seeing how talented he his.
It is hardly old news.2 -
