Just clarify the point and move on.

That is a good point. A misunderstanding is simply that. It can easily be cleared up. While I could say that it's presumptive (and wrong) of you to think that I was talking specifically about you, I can easily see (based on what *I* had written) why you would come to that conclusion.

"handful of krap on your head and wondering where all the flies are coming from"

Love it. I'm gonna remember that and use it myself!!!

Your first paragraph is exactly what Winston could have done. Just clarify the point and move on. His comment could have rationally been interpreted in a variety of ways. As I said he has copy and pasted the name of the poster he is replying to in his posts but not that one. Thus in my allegation I said he 'seemed to support' the idea. He could have just clarified like you did. Instead we have this trainwreck.
Its nothing personal with him but as you said and as he admitted himself, he has a way with him. Its his choice to be like that so he must live with it. He makes his bed so he must lie in it. If his style is as you say it is then its natural that what happens with him happens. Its like putting a handful of krap on your head and wondering where all the flies are coming from.

Very kind post!

It seems some people only particularly seem to care about my 'writing style' when it involves a negative comment (or in the case, perceived as neghative) about a Liverpool player.

Coincidence?!

It's all a bit pathetic, really.

"I only asked him to be more articulate to avoid confusion."

2 issues with this.

Firstly, the suggestion that I meant Gerrard was not good enough when I said Scholes was a complete player doesn't make any sense.

Secondly, if you'd just asked me like you have here, rather than being rude and insulting, you may well have received a polite answer and the conversation could have continued.

I am not to blame for your bizarre decision to do that.

"my issue with Winston is the way just about every topic he posts on descends into arguments. Check his comments history, he is the common denominator in so many rows"

Please do check my posting history.

You'll see the vast majority of contribution passes without incident.

You'll see most of the handful of arguments are with the same small group of Liverpool fans, who seem to take exception to any comment that doesn't praise a Liverpool player, and use that as an excuse to derail a thread - of course, laying the blame somewhere else.

But as I said, please do check my posting history.

Absolute hogwash.

Furthermore I did not have to ask Ripley to specify his post further. He understood how his point, though valid, could be interpreted differently and clarified that my take on his comment was not what he intended. Something you seem unable to do though it happens all the time. When I used thee word 'seemed' I left the option of a clarification. In any case I think you are lying about your intention with that comment and have given my reasons for thinking so. I cant prove it but you cant convince me otherwise either. Thats all really.

Fact remains - you were rude and insulting because you assumed I meant something that I hadn't.

The reason our conversation nose dived is because of that fact.

Had you have just asked me to clarify, politely, I would have done.
