I'm sure there are lawyers out there only too eager to relieve you of cash to prove you wrong should one go too far outside the limits. I doubt it. How many times have you actually seen or heard of that happening? The time and effort involved, and the difficulty of proving anything, are just too much. You don't need my permission or encouragement to test that theory if you so desire.

You don't need my permission or encouragement to test that theory if you so desire. I rarely say anything on here that could be remotely libelous, so it's very unlikely. But if I do feel so disposed between now and the end of the season, I shall do my best. More seriously, I've been on football forums since the internet started, and seen a great deal worse than what goes on on here. But, in all that time, although seeing many posters banned and posts deleted, and many warnings of potential legal action from admins, I've never heard (on those forums or others) of anyone being taken to court, or even threatened with legal action. And some of those posts would have been against the law these days!

It would seem by a couple of the personal messages that have come through that my humour and my opinions have upset a number of people on this board and i have been asked to apologise for my sins. Well i dont set out to upset people as i would rather make them laugh than cry but my comments ,good or bad, come from the heart and occasionally the arse its just the way i am . The only way I can change is to shut up altogether and I have enough support on my side not to do that. I cannot apologise because then that will be an admittance that what I say is wrong and in my opinion it is not. So to those of you who are so upset with me can I suggest you lighten up a little and just have the occasional chuckle instead of throwing your toys out of your pram at every comment or expletive that creeps into my comments. They are only my opinions they are not set in stone like the ten commandments and perhaps instead of moaning you could contribute more to the board yourself ,apparently we have over 1500 members but it's the same 50 or so every day that chat away ,if all you want to do is read and not post perhaps you could join a f**king library. Oh shit! Here we go I have lost my f**king temper now and it's all you BASTARDS fault ,if you really want me off the board then complain to the boards authorities and have me thrown off like you did Dave,who was admittedly a first class knobhead. I really do not f**king care any more. 👨🚀👨🚀👨🚀👨🚀yeah f**k you 👨🚀👨🚀👨🚀👨🚀 Mr Sword tell them to f*ck off and keep on posting

So despite being a loyal supporter of Maidstone United since 1980 you dont know the threat of legal action that one of our own faced in the 1990s? I also have a feeling that PBB may have threatened it at one point

I suspect that threatening people with legal action was pretty bread and butter to PBB. Still no one can give an instance of anyone on a football forum actually being taken to court for what they posted though.

OK, I concede that. But he's a grade A nutter at the best of times. (And let's hope he doesn't read that!)

The law changed to state that Forum Owners we’re responsible for any libellous comments made on their forums - given that PBB was attracting some rather hateful comments at the time the decision was taken to close the forum down before I ended up with legal action to deal with because certain posters couldn’t differentiate between the truth and completely spurious comments.

I agree with you now perhaps you can apologise for your abysmal spelling. Mind you a few of those words will doubtlessly find there way into a Sun crossword just to make them fit the gaps.
