archied Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 Can we have a separate grammar section in the way we have transfer talk section? That section can be reserved for topics that are totally beyond reproach in terms of grammar, spelling and punctuation that way the more superior forum members can enjoy the full splender of the English language and the rest of us great unwashed can get on with talking about football without this constant sniping about grammar and spelling ,,,, picking people up on this stuff does not make the poster look classy and educated ,, it just makes them look a bit of a knob,,, tin hat on but it needs saying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archied Posted August 9, 2017 Share Posted August 9, 2017 All joking aside ,I treat the forum as if I'm sitting talking football with mates and don't give much of a thought to all that grammar b******* ( wouldn't claim grammar and spelling as a strong point of mine but then it doesn't really interest or impress me ) , always saddens me though to see people who are perhaps not so elequently articulate treated as if they are dumb or inferior ,,,, yes there are spelling and grammar mistakes above but I'm willing to bet there's not a person that reads it and doesn't understand what's being said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really ,,, just asking for posters to pack in using all the grammar and spelling knitpicking as a tool to hide behind when their opinions are questioned,,,,,,, jeez I didn't even know there was a pub section ,,,,,,, ironic that a topic I've posted is moved to the pub forum given that I gave up drinking the best pat of 25 years ago ,,,,,,,, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
