After way too many pages of pointless bickering, these pages were beginning to calm down again. It would be nice if they could stay as thoughts on the record attempt rather than thoughts on the attitude of other posters on this thread.
But Jo, that takes a maturity to accept the thoughts of other people as an acceptable offering in an open forum.
If you don't like other peoples's thought's [and lets face it, most of us don't in some shape or form], then you can disagree [I'm sure we'd all agree that's perfectly fine, that's the kind of stuff that goes in forums isn't it?], but why resort to personal attacks? You don't like it? - sorry, that's too bad.
Correct me if I'm wrong [and I'd appreciate a reference] but I cannot remember one post from anybody that is negative towards Steve as a person or in any way nasty and unkind, I cannot believe it's in evidence here, most people either know him personally of have cycled with him in some shape or form over the years [for much, much longer than me as well]........but the fact remains, people do have strong feelings about how things have/are panning out for him. And for some, its runs much deeper than others.
If you don't like the thread, and it's contents - don't read it. And if you don't like what's written - deal with it. I still can't understand why some people would resort to person attacks just because they don't like what's been written.
Steve will do his stuff anyway, regardless. And support him whole heartedly. But I also have 'current thoughts'...sorry, I just do.
