It’s pretty easy to come on here, make a username, name, slander and make comments on a public forum that are viewable to everyone, and disappear.
If people want to make personal allegations against coaches, committee members or clubs, do it on Facebook or face to face. Anonymity is a privilege and we have a responsibility to respect that and eachother.
For the most part, the forum is a great place with different opinions and ideas. But lately there’s either lots of trolls coming in, multis with an agenda or just keyboard warriors happy to hide and slander.
Seriously, the most childish arguments come from a thread about youth football. Presumably, you aren’t the young players coming on here, you should be the adults, parents or supporters.
Before you post. If you wouldn’t be happy to attach your name at the end to field any complaints or legal teams, maybe think about deleting or rewording the post.
