I don't believe for one minute that Fishtown is genuine.

As someone who was a dedicated supporter of the club for about 56 years but have now restricted myself to being a concerned observer, I have a question which will probably be regarded as naive in the light of so much reasoned argument on here.
However, if the intention of the new owners is to bring about the sale of Plainmoor for the purposes of a housing development, then how can they have a 5 year plan and what could it possibly consist of ?
All of this nonsense involving people who are totally illiterate is becoming really tiresome, and I wonder why longterm serious posters bother to respond to it. Also. so sorry to hear about your sexual confusion, Fishtowngull.

I'd expect we'll get a press release about it at some point. A shiny new stadium, bright new tomorrow, sustainability, new revenue streams and supporter representation will no doubt be features of said press release, Stewart. |

Try folderol, Flo.
One meaning being "a showy, but useless item". A GI public consumption 5 year plan, anyone? You'd hope not.
Another meaning for folderol is 'nonsensical or trivial fuss'. Were you not hinting at same earlier re fans worried about their club? An alpinejoe trust rant, maybe? Me bothering? Night all.

I don't believe for one minute that Fishtown is genuine. For once we agree, Hector. Irritatingly, sex-confused Faye continues to denigrate Merse by amending but still misspelling his name. And what does 'Foldoral' mean? New one on me and a word that google does not recognise Er not confused Florry.......i know what i am! |

Maybe these GI people WILL be good for the club then Stuart - i don't believe for one minute that asset stripping will be beneficial to them. Surely they would desire a mutually advantageous outcome ? |

And with that final flourish, fishtowngull was gone. If he thought our kitchen was a bit too warm it is nothing compared to the way BTPIR would have fried his fishy bits. Eternal vigilance is a price we need to pay if our club is going to be safe. |

I do not think Fishtown gull was genuine but transgender people are welcome to post on here and should not be labelled as sexually confused as a general note to all.

Were you not hinting at same earlier re fans worried about their club? An alpinejoe trust rant, maybe? Me bothering? Night all. Thanks for the clarification, Rob. And comparison to the awesome Alpine Joe is heady stuff indeed! I didn't mean it come across as a rant. Well not a flat-out rant anyway. It's just that being in business I like all my info to be verified before I act on anything. Basing any action on hearsay is the quickest way to get yourself, your business, or worse both, in some deep smelly stuff. I am happy to read any info but I reserve the right to remain sceptical when the poster can't or won't verify its source. At that point it's just speculation and conjecture, and does not deserve further consideration, until such time that it may become factual. We all want what's best for the club but the avalanche of theories and suggestions muddy the water around the actual situation and distract from it. There is nowt wrong with keeping an open mind and there is always a lot of misinformation out there. However, it is our new owners with all the new proposals that have it all to prove so of course there is a heck of a lot of scepticism out there and scrutiny from part of the fan base. Even the previous board that sold out to GI did all they could to find alternative ownership which does not inspire confidence, particularly after what was said at the fans forum..... |

rjdgull I must congratulate rjdgull on this principled stand. With so many important issues pertaining to the club's future possibly about to be decided, we can guess what any enlightened local Councillors checking the site will think, if they perceive they're witnessing a minority group member and Brixham resident being hounded from the site, with a TUST militant playing a leading role. It doesn't play well, and is most unlikely to have gone down well in TUST management circles. rjdgull clearly indicates that as far as this site is concerned, TFF also stands for Trans Fan Friendly, so even if you're just guessing that transgendering might provide a Plainmoor matchday advantage of allowing you to take a quick pee in the ladies loo if there's a queue for the gents, it's helpful to bear in mind the sensibilities of minorities if we are to avoid antagonism and TFF losing new members.
With this in mind, it could be helpful to remember this acronym
Transgender Understanding Stops Trouble And it's been trans-ferred onto a Transgender Pride Flag. Let's kick off our quest for understanding by gaining a little knowledge about the flag.
The light blue is the traditional colour for baby boys, pink is for girls, and the white in the middle is for "those who are transitioning, those who feel they have a neutral gender or no gender", and those who are intersex.
It might not be enough to persuade all TUST militants to send love and kisses to Alex and Faye, but the least we can do is ensure they follow rjdgull's reminder that TFF should always be a Trans Friendly Forum

Nice one Alpine - (cannot call you aj anymore as another poster has taken that acronym, assuming that is not you as well!) Worth mentioning Proboards terms of use also has the following conditions in addition to us having to comply with British Law: A. User's content must comply in a manner consistent with any and all applicable laws of the State of California and the US Federal Government. B. User's web site may not contain content promoting the use of illegal drugs, alcohol, sex, pornography, nudity, or any other form of adult content, profanity, hate, "spam," fraud, racism, mlm, pyramid schemes, or promote any illegal activity. C. User's message board and Web site must be in English. Hopefully we can get back onto topic.....  |

Dave Thomas indicates in the Herald today that apart from becoming "official supporters", Clarke Osborne and his number two, Chris Rich, won't be doing anything much TUFC related until later in the month. It's just possible they might have a passing interest in that council meeting we've all heard about and the correspondence of cross-party local elected representatives published on the various TUFC forums, but there's no commentary from Dave on that just yet.
