It is a great shame that threads to show respect for fellow Stokies that have past get locked because a few sad, spineless tossers choose to have a pop at those same people. I am ashamed to see these wankers associated with the same club and company as I am. Hang your fuckin heads in shame.

Unfortunately its too easy to sit and give your opinion over a keyboard, not one cunt would say anything to his friends / family. Most people get brought up not to say hurt full things and keep your opinions to your self especially against some one that has sadly passed away, other people get brought up to be complete disrespectful tools. As you say, spineless people. Its a sad world we live in.

The thing is though Stafford-this is a message board for people to give their views,whether they agree with yours or not.As you well know.
I never knew Steve-though I did live in New Malden for a time;and I mourn any Stoke fans passing.

Do you have to swear all the time Yes now fuck off! Seriously I am just at a loss as to why people would be so disrespectful. It's ok to have opinions, and I can be one if the worse for wind ups etc but it is just common decency. If you have nothing good to say at times like this then I feel it is best to say nothing. Shocking and from someone I never expected it from. Oh well each to their own.

Oh well. Maybe the cap fits? TP's cap is way too big for my head. Zzzzzzzzzzz. I give up with some of the scum on here. Embarrassed is an understatement but disappointed, very much so. Not one of the scum bags would front up in the pre match pubs and say the things they have said from behind their keyboards . I am truly lost for words. Stokie family? Well they ay you can't choose your family and how true is that? Disgusted! Good night.

When people in this country can't share their opinion about the political views of a man who was an apparent Nazi sympathiser and considered the holocaust to be political propaganda, to use your language Stafford, we are right royally up shit fuckin creek.
Should these opinions be kept off an RIP thread? Absolutely, which is why this post is here. Should they be kept quiet? Absolutely not.
I also subscribe to the Speaker for the Dead philosophy, again hence this post.
Just my opinion, obviously.

I'm not a regular contributor to the board, being more of a voyeur I suppose, but I do enjoy the differing views. It's occasionally educational but more often than not amazingly funny..... and yes, some do need to swear.
May the Oatcake live on for many more years. It's a bit of Stoke in Sydney, and for that I thank you. PS. my wife comments that I'm always likely to revert to a Stoke accent and dialect after catching up with the latest SCFC news and event.
I now await the 2am kick off for the QPR game. At least I have a couple of good single malts to keep me company. (we don't count the Bushmills and Blackbush)

I am ashamed to see these wankers associated with the same club and company as I am. Hang your fuckin heads in shame. I feel the same way about racism, racists and those that attempt some half arse, futile justification of it. I guess our moral compasses all point in different directions.

No surprise is it, sad as it is that this type of thread has been ruined it's not unusual on this board. The oatcake unfortunately is dying every single thread ultimately ends up exactly the same, with pathetic name calling and idle threats. We have a large selection of users who haven't the ability to construct their views in a way that engages a sensible debate but would rather sit behind their screens threatening other users. This unfortunately is not restricted to this site but seems to be an ever increasing way of the world where social network and the the Internet in general are a thumb click away kids and adults alike are just becoming mindless drones who cannot think for themselves.

Stafford, my intention wasn't to be disrespectful and I'm not doubting that Steve was a massive Stoke fan. Should have kept my feelings away from the thread? Yes and I apologise if I've offended you. I don't intend to boo, just not clap. Just stating that if I'd not seen the now deleted posts, I'd have clapped along with others and given my background, I don't think that would be right. You have nothing to apologise for. The whole clapping in certain minute stuff is a complete and utter load of bollocks for people who need to think that everyone gives a shit. A stoke supporter dies every week so really we should have this every game. Its all bollocks. The tribute at the last home fixture of the calendar year is the best tribute possible to stoke fans that have left us. Everyone knows what they are clapping for and I've not met anyone yet who hasn't been emotionally moved by it. There is a time and a place for stuff like this and it isn't the home fixture every week.

Simple question
So was the guy a Nazi sympathiser and did he think the Holocaust was a propaganda exercise. Yes or No ?

You can judge a man quite adequately by the company he keeps and it is sometimes better not to get involved in these type of threads as the whole episode becomes an exercise in extremely poor taste by all those who have taken part. I don't know the individual and I don't know what has been inferred is true , so therefore I am not prepared to add my tuppenth worth.
I wish others would do the same in a more unified and dignified way.

I feel a few are missing the point. I wasn't big mates with Steve. He was a chap I would see in the pub on a match day and say hello to in passing. In my opinion he was a good bloke. I have no idea of his opinions and nor am I interested. It is not about that and It is not even about a minutes applause for him. My gripe if you like is about the tossers who descend on a thread which has obviously been posted by one if his mates or a family member to slag the bloke off. Now my way of thinking is that if you feel you have nothing nice/good to say then don't post on the tread. Surly that is just resect to others who are mourning the loss of the bloke. As I say, it is a sad place when admin has to lock an R.I.P thread because of a few spineless tossers behind a keyboard. You should be ashamed!

I am just talking about respect for a bloke that has passed and his friends and family. Each to their own I suppose. Can't be arsed with the spineless sad fucks from now on. I just hope that when karma strikes I get the chance to have a little smile to myself.

I have little clue what you're talking about and who these spineless sad fucks are but in my opinion you don't pay your respects via a message board. Do it in person or do it via private message rather than try to arrange a public show of sadness by people who don't know who they are showing respect to. A final point is that respect isn't a given. It has to be earned.

A strange set of morals for someone who has wished death upon Sir Alex Ferguson for being a 'jock twat'. A true ambassador for 'common decency'.
I wonder if you'd be posting threads like this if a Muslim stoke fan, or perhaps a 'black c*nt' with strong views against White Brits had died.
You're not fooling anyone.

I never knew Steve-though I did live in New Malden for a time;and I mourn any Stoke fans passing. Well said. I never agreed with a word Steve said on this board and he was often a right pain in the bum tbh (without your redeeming charm, Stafford xx) but respect for the passing of a fellow Stokie, and condolences to his family and close friends - hope that goes without saying from all of us. But given the kind of guy Steve was, he of all people would have been disappointed if something didn't kick off in his memory...
