I’ll maintain that whether people like it or not, it’s a valid story that people want to hear.
If people on this forum don’t think it’s “appropriate “ then they should grow up.
Gossip is the way of the world - whether it’s Alex Rance or Wayne Carey - when you choose your vocation you accept the ups and downs.
The highly sensitised nature of this forum shows me how acutely sensitive and protective the forum posters are of the club and its players.
Admirable but embarrassingly naive.
So you deem the vitriolic abuse, cruel rumours that have dragged innocent parties into something that has nothing to do with them is OK? The way of the world?
If that's how you like your "news" that's your choice.
Just because I don't feed off gossip and don't see it as news doesnt mean I need to grow up, nor does it mean I am naive.
I don't feel the need to feed off others misery or misfortune which is the main purpose of gossip.
Hence, why Rupert's media thrives on it. They dish out a crumb and people crave more. So they dish out more, then the keyboard warriors then jump on board and the lies snowball out of control. How can that be OK, acceptable?
WP, “don’t feed off gossip?”- you it made it pretty clear what punishment you wanted Dusty to receive when you bought into the rumours in the chopstick saga.
And please don’t embarrass yourself and deny you said what you said- from memory you want either a 12 month or 24 month ban.
And for the record I think there is way more to Rance retiring than we all know.
And to think Alex Rance splitting up from his wife a few days after retiring suddenly isn’t news, is just plain ridiculous imo.
And the actual name of this thread speaks for itself too imo.
