I'd appreciate it if you'd stop telling me what to think. I really do have a brain of my own and don't much appreciate being told 'X is the best player and you know it' or 'Milan's had a bad season and you know it', whether I agree with it or not.
And yes, I do happen to agree that MIlan has had a poor season in relative terms and I think management dropped the ball in the last two transfer windows. That doesn't mean I feel the need to call the team a joke, to insult management, players, and coaches, or most especially to insult other posters for having the nerve to say something positive.

I'd appreciate if you stop those stupid questions: "Why do you support Milan? Are you a real fan? Are you a true milanista?" (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif) Just because some of you guys refuse to realize how shite we're at the moment, it doesn't mean I can't say the truth about it.

Eventhough sometimes imo she just blindly supports milan, she still has heart! I bet you do too, thats why your so mad. I can understand how you feel. But calling our players shite just because they're having alittle trouble is not necessary. The only player who should be called shite is gila. Everyone else is good/worldclass just off form.

If you would, for once, post the fanboy zomg-isn't-he-great posts about anyone or anything having to do with Milan - instead of for Real Madrid, Inter, and Liverpool - you might have an argument. You might also have an argument if you did something OTHER than constantly criticize. Constructive criticism is one thing. A constant stream of negativity, insult, and contempt is another. And what I see coming from you is the latter, so there are times when I don't believe you even like the club, much less love it. The constant stream of obscenities doesn't exactly help much either. Enough is enough - and your English is good enough that you don't have the 'I don't understand' excuse as to why people might find your choice of words to be offensive. And just because some people refuse to condemn every little thing having to do with the club in no way means they're not aware of how bad things are. I don't like the situation either, but I don't feel the need to inflict a heap of insult onto the team as a result of it.

Haha. Always with the easy solutions, Max. (IMG: http://cyrus.medialayer.net/~m1ke/milanfan.com/forums/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Anyway...sorry to everyone that I lost my temper today. This season has been terribly frustrating - poor performances, poor transfer activity, etc etc etc - and I'm under no illusion that the team is doing well. I just don't think it serves any constructive purpose to wallow in the negativity and have...had enough of it. Am off to Italy now, back in a week or so.

Funny you say that when I'm probably the guy who've translated more italian news about t he club (not Liverpool, Int...) since MF born. Specially during the Summer Transfer-fest. And I'm doing that even before you join MF. Probably even before you knew MF exist. Translating, giving the opinion, etc in each article I posted. Another funny fact: You say I write a lot about Liverpool, Inter, R.Madrid... Yeah, I do. I do like football (the European, not Soccer). But that's just 30% of my posts in MF (Football Forum). And you've 31% of yours in the same forum. There are different type of fans. And you just have to respect it. You can say I'm no Milan fan. Good. In the end of the day I can say the exact same thing about you. But hey, don't worry. I don't even care.
