Everytime I see his name, I keep thinking of Disco Stu from the Simpsons.

*Sigh.* It was only a matter of time before someone got that dig in. Shame it had to be a member of the GoT admin team, though.

Too much "wacky baccy", Colin? Whatever... far be it for us to suppress such infectious optimism![]()

Suits, you're reading that little quip the wrong way, mate, and unfortunately it's indicative of the way people have made up their minds that ToffeeWeb is intransigently and persistently negative.
It was meant as light-hearted banter about a quirky article drawing comparisons with a dodgy 80s soap opera. I was trying to say that while the premise was bizarre, I wanted to publish it anyway because it was upbeat, positive, and reflected the mood among Evertonians.
@Dylan, Michael is Michael, I'm not his keeper and as equal stakeholder in TW he will no doubt continue to call things as he sees them. He is but one voice in what is now, thanks to the increased reader input mechanisms, many voices.
I just feel that people take him way to seriously and propogate the "ToffeeWeb is anti-club, negative [Poor language removed]" myth all too readily.
As I say to everyone who criticises the stance of the site, submit your own article to put forward your own views.
While I'm here, I've been in contact with Danny on and off over the past few months and more support for the Forum from TW is in the works. In the meantime, carry on
Cheers,
Lyndon

Bluekipper isn't exclusively negative.
It has over 13000 members, with a good few hundred regulars. A lot of positivity there.
I am a Kipper migrant though![]()

I don't think too many believe it is Tom but what about TW?
Actually, I've always felt there was a big discrepancy between the Kipper main site (pretty neutral) and the Kipper forum which, depending on the topic could be rabidly negative and "anti-club".
Like I say, TW has its reputation and it's clearly not going to go away, despite our cross-section of columnists and regular contributors.
You have that reputation Lyndon because it has been earned. Start by changing the editorial direction, you can't act like Pilate by saying we have a cross section of columnists, that merely means you have those who will moan about the club constantly and those that moan about it less often, the central theme being they all moan and supporters are sick and tired of it
What Monty?
You act as if he's an equal stakeholder or something.
