How 'apt' that the 'OP' used superfluous 'punctuation' in the title of this thread.

*not having the nerve to admit he was Trolley, which in my opinion he was.

but I don't hate the guy and also sometimes am pleasantly surprised by the guy, particularly some of his snap responses when they contain none of the above tics.

perhaps, though, the best thing would be if the angry people responded to him here, on this thread, and other threads could go un-derailed by the reaction he sometimes gets.


"Feigned" ? I'm afraid your "Opinion" as you put it is way off the mark.But in life we have all been wrong from time to time and drawn conclusions that are awry.

I can only re-iterate that if I WAS 'Trolley', I would have had the same Userid on HOL - no reason to do otherwise.Don't know this person but I gather he was really 'Long in the tooth' many years ago whereas I am a 'Mere' 65 in November.Don't know if he even posts on BBS these days.Anyway I have answered this 'Charge' several times so no more to add - only adds 'fuel to the fire' and encourages those from continuing with their agenda.

Finally, I am grateful for all the positive comments on this thread.At the end of the day I am just a minnion on HOL and try and post some information to hopefully add value to the debate.Seems I fail on many occasions but I do try ! And I argue my case free of personal slurs - IF I have offended anyone I would like to apologise without reservation and I can assure you I never intended to do so.

To all, have a lovely day and take care.

I also like Willo.

An interesting contributor who never gets personal when people have a go at him.

A friend of mine used to go to Selhurst park with a 'stopwatch' to time the proceedings of a 'football match' and has told me that Willo is a rather palatable fellow.

Those were the days when there were no 'Fourth officials' nor any of these 'Tag Heuer' electronic boards indicating a minimum of added-on time.Accordingly the 'Stopwatch' information was very useful.

Not sure if this is a positive or negative comment !

At the end of the day, I have been resident on the south coast for over 2.5 years and have followed our team since the 60s but alas there are those who even cast doubt on this and scurrilous allegations to the contrary have been hurled in my direction.

And my dear James, I have visited the 'Green Elephants' stadium (Burgess Hill Town) on more than one occasion and enjoyed a tipple or two in the town !

Positive mate. I have respect for everyone on this forum (even if I ever say anything that may seem disrespectful). I genuinely like everyone here even if their opinions or tastes are different to mine.

I should add, it's the characters on forums that will inevitably rub one or two people up the wrong way and maybe even divide opinion, but a forum with no characters isn't worth reading. Good job Alan Pardew isn't one of the moderators!

I certainly don't set out to raise any hackles on here and certainly don't intend to offend anyone.

Of course on occasions my opinions will differ from perhaps the majority but these are my GENUINE viewpoints and not designed to be the catalyst for fiesty exchanges.

What is galling is to have to defended 'Charge' after 'Charge by those who have an agenda against me and seek to undermine me at every turn.I use the word 'Contact' or 'Source' and all of a sudden the 'Anti-Willo' brigade turn their fire on me. I am regularly accused in bouts of sarcasm of reaching for 'Wiki' or 'Google' when in essence I don't need to resort to such sites on a regular basis - As if doing so is a 'Crime' !!!! Of course I need to research some details on the Internet but it is in the interests of trying to add value to the debate.

I could say a lot more on here but alas I keep my counsel for reasons that I won't divulge. At the end of the day I am just a minnion on HOL, I am NOT driven by self-importance and don't view myself as being any sort of panjandrum in any shape or form.I am quite happy to bow down to others on here.
