Right, just to clarify, in no way am I annoyed that you pulled the thread as I can kind of see how it would be deemed to be a sensitive topic. However, this a fans forum, we are not releasing official club statements, so I was just wondering why such issues cant be discussed on this, as they would with a group of mates down the pub.

Can forums be subject to legal action as a result of defamation?

Remember the tone though, not angry, just dissappointed! :wink:

No problem. I thought that might be the case, because I couldnt see why we couldnt just discuss these things unless there were possible ramifications for those in charge of the site.

There's possible ramifications for you as well, if you post something that can't be proved. Just as if you say something about someone in the pub. The only difference is that there is a written record on here.

This site is plagued by unsubstantiated posts at the moment. At least that's what someone told me. :greengrin
