Post by No Ney Never » Thu Apr 06, 2023 9:30 pm

Whatever the reason, is there one thread that you remember or comes to mind?

The one at Christmas 2020 when Claret Tony outed a poster for saying he was in Spain by pointing out it was from a local IP address ... classic UTC 🤭

A thread which asked for posts ending in the words "" its' political correctness gone mad, I tell you"" was shaping up well before being wrongly deleted by a mod who didn't get the point or simply lacked any sense of humour.

The Covid thread. When everything was unfolding. And it quickly accelerated. Players testing positive (arteta and hudson adoi) were the ones I remember if I’m right. And seemed to be so surreal. Shame the thread disappeared. Moment in history.

GodisaDJ’s detailed escapades in grubby swingers clubs was certainly an education.

There was also a thread where a poster in the ClaretsMad days I think, where a poster described taking some bird he met in a nightclub to the Keirby Hotel and ‘scuttling’ her while the night manager listened in.

One of the responses were, “have you considered writing romantic novels?’

I genuinely lol’ed

It’s difficult for me to recall any particular thread in relation to the good old days or any day in present time but what I can recall is nothing, because the good threads get locked or deleted before even started a few posts bang what’s to possibly remember it’s gone before it’s even set out.
