This account is the best thing to come out of this saga
To be fair, I wonder if that's partly because the anti-levy posters are more inclined to promote their agenda in threads where it has little relevance, resulting in foul votes for going off-topic. Of course the same won't apply to people who are not anti-Levy, not because they are better people etc or anything like that, but simply because they generally have no agenda to raise, i.e. they are not as upset with the current management so don't need to bring it into all discussions.
NOTE: To repeat / be clear, I'm not saying one side is any 'worse' than the other, I'm just providing a plausible reason why posters on one side of the debate are legitimately more likely to get foul-voted than others. Of course there will still be foul votes for abuse etc on both sides, but off-topic may account for a good proportion of them I expect.
All this aside; if we're talking about "gang binnings'' then a 'gang' would have to be pretty big to meet the required number of votes.

... I think you told us once before, but how many votes for a yellow or a red? (Making that info public might ease a lot of the paranoia.)
Your posts always read like you've Googled what you want to say.
You think?
I know Toney is a factor, but have Bmuff signed some players that are likely to elevate their squad?
..............Can't say I've noticed either way.
.......All I know is they sacked the asst. manager that did a cracking job saving them from the drop.
Not exactly to Ange younger approach. Probably his agent throwing his name around.
A few of the SC ITKs (pinch of salt, yeah, yeah) talking about Antonio Silva being a target. Absolute monster of a CB. Wonder if we were to get someone like him Romero could play the inverted FB role and step into midfield for some matches.
He will be jet lagged to fuck, I hope we give this kid some time to settle in before throwing him in the deep end.
....And then converted into shit haiku form.
He’s got Madrid or City or United written all over him tbh. I would be shocked if we got him, top prospect, has a big release clause and a long contract. Benfica are probably holding out for a big fee next summer
If we could steal a march I’d be very happy
We're ranked as one of the most valuable clubs in world football!
Should we concern ourselves with desperately converting half decent fullbacks to CB's??
I'm one that don't think our defensive woe's of lately is 100% down to our awful CB's. YES they are the biggest problem, but i think a lot is also down to our fullbacks and DMC's.
Us playing 3 in midfield will benefit us big time this season. It will shield our CB's much better, and i think Bissouma will be a monster. The only worry there is when Biss is out we have Skippy, is he up to it?
Our fullback situation is worrying to say the least. Porro, Spence, Udogie, and Sess are all awful defensively(good going forward tho)
The only other options we have for a more defensive setup is Emerson and Davies. They are both decent, not good, but decent, is that enough?
In a perfect world(obviously not the Spurs one) we would sign Tapsoba and VdV, AND two defensively sound fullbacks, one for each side.
What's the clause price?

Gift Orban was on the bench for Gent's game 2 days ago. Really makes you think.
Dodgy source but reports are either €90 or 100m, he’s just signed a new deal this year
Yeah but as long as they can get VDV ready for Brentford, the main work for the first few games of the season is done.
Biggest fucking issue is selling some of these lingering farts.

Rhetorical, but would anyone vote for us blowing all the #KaneMoney on 1 x uber CB like this?
It seems like a really soft foul vote, people on all sides of the debate go off topic and have posts that can be classed as spam and off topic all the time, even your post and my current post is off topic.To be fair, I wonder if that's partly because the anti-levy posters are more inclined to promote their agenda in threads where it has little relevance, resulting in foul votes for going off-topic. Of course the same won't apply to people who are not anti-Levy, not because they are better people etc or anything like that, but simply because they generally have no agenda to raise, i.e. they are not as upset with the current management so don't need to bring it into all discussions.
