It has been mentioned NUMEROUS of occasions now.
And it has nothing to do with moderation. It is not against the rules to question whether Italian can manage in England (although tad ridiculous considering Ancellotti's side are looking likely winners of the league and Cappello being national team manager), and it's not against rules to not like manager because he is a (former) rag.
Honestly, and this is NOT directed at you alone Jim, but NOTHING gets on my tits more than saying you shouldn't think or say this and that because you are a moderator. I don't moderate opinions of people and I'm not a robot with no opinions of my own. I just try and help the owners by keeping the board going. This goes for every other moderator and owner as well. Take my recent run in with certain other poster, I dealt with it exactly the way as any other poster does. That's what I ALWAYS do.
I've only been posting on this Forum again since the start of February and I was barely reading 1 post out of 100 when I was stood outside with my nose pressed up against the window. Once again, I have yet to see any clear post from anyone and myself admitting that they don't want Roberto Mancini in charge because he's Italian. Questioning how an Italian who has spent almost his entire playing Career (one brief stint with Leicester City) and most of his Managerial Career in Italy is able to make the transfer to English Football is a perfectly reasonable thing to ask.
You've now gone from accusing me of tolerating and provoking Racism through to deliberately avoiding the subjects that people are talking about. I don't read every Post on this Forum. I don't have the time. You are a Moderator and one of those duties is to ensure that people aren't breaking any of the Forum rules. I shouldn't have to challenge a Racist or a Homophobe because it's not in my remit to do so. Also, if other Posters have already told them that they're being out of order then I don't feel the need to get involved because it's already been said. However, I have reported offensive Posts to Moderators before.
