Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).
Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.
cheers GF.

Oldham have now decided not sign Evans. His old club, Sheffield, bowed to fans and threats. Oldham have now bowed to threats. It is a trend in these times. A vociferous minority often has a greater sway than the silent majority. It occurs in many areas such as religion, politics, demonstrations. It gives these minority views a value beyond their worth.

bowed to threats or bowed to loudly and strongly voiced objections from their fans albeit that some were pretty disgraceful in their content?

cynic, your comments suggest that by not using guns, their objections, however bad, and what can be worse than death threats, are acceptable.
I feel that Evans should have stayed away until his appeal has been heard, but I still support, without agreeing, with those that wish to employ him as I do not think we can live by giving in to threats of any kind

i didn't write that, or at best you have misinterpreted .... please read both 54582 and 54584 again ..... in a nutshell, the club needs to pay attention to its fans, for no fans = no club

It is a question of how many fans and do they represent the rest. It seems that people and businesses give in if you shout loud enough even if you are a tiny minority.

With all form of communication available today, with often no way of being able to prove who is making these threats, Oldham fans could be anyone anywhere calling themselves fans, it is very difficult to make judgement.
I do remember the old addage, empty vessells make most noise.
Over the many years it has so often to be true.

You obviously don't understand Islam. Mohammed was a living man. Muslims don't worship him. He was a prophet. Even Jesus is a prophet in the Muslim religion. They worship Allah (God).
You could at least try and have some basic understanding of what you say.

It will be interesting to see the results of the "footballer's" appeal.
I feel that some of the media and other groups are acting vigilantes and elements are vindictive and hounding Evans for their own satisfactions.
I don't know his history, or if he had any previous criminal record or not, even so, if you believe in the law and its application the he has served his term as sentenced and allowed to get on with his life.
=======
I think the various clubs involved appear to be prostituting themselves for financial gain.
But that is capitalism for you.
