Is Goon Still Here?

[Snipe Watson]

Thought "ghostlyremains" might have been him

So did I....he took exception to that thought.

[namron]

Au contraire I quite enjoyed the Goons posts being IMHO quite well reasoned and insightful. Im sure most here had a wee tiff with him now and then but it was great entertainment and as for the "Farewell" post

He set out to cause offence to as many people as possible - and succeeded.
Many long term posters on this board stopped using it because of him.

Farewell post Namron? There were 313 deaths registered as suicides in Northern Ireland last year, goon thought suicide was a laughing matter, you obviously agree - but then again he also thought cancer was a laughing matter as well.

Glad to be rid of him.

How tightly are you wound up?

He is probably laughing his Brennan of at this

I would say so Clucker. He must have a lot of spare time on his hands now, maybe oiling his irons by the fire or torturing some thin-skinned individual on a golfing forum

Am I missing something here? Of course Goon is UT1. Did he not even finally admit it last week?

I think there are more than you missing something BR some are so well confused now they are not even sure who they are themselves and others don't remember anything at all beyond the last post they typed

It didn't occur to me until the Athletic Stores thread when I realised that there can't be two people that irascible on the terrace or we'd have had war by now. Quick check of posting dates reveals that the Spam joined in March but didn't post until May 2.... Goon said goodbye on the second day in May...

brother goonhead PM'd me.

he's in southern asia on a 12 week trip with his missus.

a man of his 'ilk' begins to think about striking off the things he always wishes he'd gotten around to doing, and realises that some are illegal and some arent becoming of an elder statesman.

the obvious things like a skydive, scuba diving on a reef, cage diving with Jaws etc - all ruled out by his doctor. eating fried insects in a swamp infested jungle however wasnt asked about and therefore not ruled out. and so they headed off, 1st class of course, to cambodia. his itinerary wasnt exact but he'll also see Laos, Nam, S. Korea, Thailand, Indonesia and he took particular delight in advising that he would be living like the f**kin firstborn of Genghis Khan himself in the Mandarin Oriental, Beijing for a week at the end of his trip.

he will be back on the terrace in time for our pre-season fixtures against Worcester and Sarries.

Have to agree with Namron here.

There have been some other comments made on here of late that were equally offensive but after an apology everyone moved on. What's the difference with this?

I truly sympathise if you have lost someone close to you because of suicide but with the greatest of respect, I very much doubt Gooner set out to post that pic thinking he would offend someone who may / may not have lost someone that way.

So for me, some of you are applying a double standard here where Gooner is concerned. If it's acceptable for someone else who had made or posted offensive comments to remain following an apology why would this not extend to Gooner?

And no, I'm not related to or have even met Dave. I just think we should treat everyone the same and let the mods get on with moderating the board when it needs to be moderated.

The same way that "an unnamed footballer" has never met "that slut off of big brother" in his life before.
And "no bro, I never eyed up your ewe" (it's a welsh thing)

Jeeze if rumours are correct you would be better off forgetting an injunction than being associated with the ones that have them.

Wee Jim's a clever chap, you're probably right Rooster.

I give it to the end of next week and he'll be using parliamentary privilege to 'out' them
