Ok so i know there are loads of threads about this already but as the person who actually brought the petition to this message board (not the person who started it please note) i just want to say a few things. When i read the petition on another board it made no mention of it being leaked to the papers and the tv stations. It made reference to the petition being passed to the board. IF it had been made clear that the petition would be deliberatly brought to the attention of the media therefore having a detrimental effect on the club, I would not have posted it on here. The last thing that i wanted was for this club to receive negative publicity. In hindsight it may have been a little niave to feel that the petition would not be used by the orignators for their own gain. If my adding the petition to this board contributed to negative publicity for this club, then for that i am sorry but one thing i will not apologise for is holding my own anti racism views as i have very very good reasons for this. |

If you read what i put i said i did not expect those who started the petition to purposely leak the details to the media for their own gain rather than for the good of the club. |

Woooooooooah StAndys. This forum is a valid means of expressing opinion - and your poll was posted on this forum! You DIDN'T start a war for G@d's sake!!! Don't appologise for ANYTHING! As an active and informed contributor to these boards you have only ever expressed 1) FACTS ....or 2) your INFORMED opinion on a particular subject. You have NEVER been negative, threatening or abusive. Don't lose any sleep over it mate and keep smilin' ;) |

Well,I'll stick to my original viewpoint and simply say Whoever signed the petition AGAINST Lee Bowyer signing should NEVER set foot inside St Andrews again You are NOT Blues supporters in any shape or form Leave the playing side and business decisions to SB and the Board... Keep right on |

IS NONE ACTUALLY READING WHAT I AM SAYING?? I DID NOT START THE PETITION IT WAS STARTED BY SOMEONE ON ANOTHER BOARD. I HAVE SIMPLY EXPRESSED MY OPINION AND HAVE ALREADY STATED THAT IT WAS THE ORIGINATOR OF THE PETITION WHO LEAKED THE DETAILS TO THE MEDIA. IF I HAD KNOWN THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN THE INTENTION THEN I WOULD NOT HAVE POSTED IT ON HERE. |

Of course i am still a Blues supporter. I support the whole team not just one player. I have a right to my opinion and at least i am admitting that i signed the petition but i am not the originator of the petition. |

Yes i did but it already had over 80 people signed to it before that. This is a public forum for people to express their opinion as they want to. If you are looking for someone to blame then please blame the person who started the petition as their initial intention seemed to be an attack on the board - it just seems they disguised it as an anti racism stance. |

One of the guidelines to this board state that no spamming is alowed "ie" links to other sites. but due to the problems we have had the ban on links have managed to be overlooked I am going to speak to the other admins and have these restrictions reintroduced as others create these thing and we are left to clean up the mess. and the board we have all worked so hard to make a nice place to come and air your views on BCFC looks like a bloody war zone!!! St andys do not worry you were only keeping people informed. |

I am, but you are eqally to blame, by bringing the petition on here you have encouraged people to sign and it has spiralled out of controlled. I hope a leson has been learnt!!!!!!!! |

Do you not think that there is an element of convience about the whole thing? Only yesterday it was stated that Bowyer was taking a few days to decide as to whether he could afford the drop of £15k a week in his wages - then all of a sudden the petition is blamed for the end of the deal. Could just be me being cynical but it seems a little convienient. |

HEY steady on a bit... I think everyone is getting a bit carried away with this!!! StAndrews4Eva posts hundreds of links to hundreds of articles relating to Blues - and I, for one, appreciate the information. Posting a link to another website/forum/poll/article is NOT a crime... it's simply sharing information. The MAIN issue here is the author and publisher of the petition going 'live' to the press (or whoever) with the information - and that is NOTHING to do with StAndrews4Eva. I personally have NO problem with polls/petitions as they are a valuable means of expressing opinions for things we feel strongly about. If anything, the issue IS about the author going 'live' with the results so early - hardly a representative opinion poll with so few signatures - and David Sullivan overreacting to things - he should knopw better than to take ANY notice of such an irrelevant opinion poll. So let's stop persecuting someone for simply sharing information! |

St Andy's, most of us are listening to you and fully undersand and agree with what you say. As I've said before, don't worry about what some people say on some internet forums. Ours has always seemed to be one of, if not the most, mature and sensible forums, where like minded fans have expressed views and opinions about all aspects of our club. I'm sad to see it seems to be reverting to the level of certain other sites. Lets all rise above this ONE issue, don't take the bait, and leave the desisions to the people who we pay to entrust the future of our GREAT club. |

Willie, so why is there the facility to include http lins to other sites? Ther is a HUGE difference between 'spamming' (blatant and obtrusive advertising) and providing valuable information from other sites!! |

DON'T YOU DARE StAndys... carry on the way we know and love you. Just making someone aware of something DOES NOT force someone to agree with it (or sign a petition). Take no notice.... there's just too much close-season steam being let off!!! |
