Gareth Glover said:I had to bite the bullet and say I think NSC is in danger of becoming a bit of a " love in " at the moment.
I have noticed particularly over the last year that the forum has become a bit of a lovies chat room or a chat room for Labour activists or a chat room for anti war activists.
I can only put this down to the NSC get togethers. Don't get me wrong as its great to meet up with " names " and have a beer and discuss the love of the Albion but this has meant NSC has lost its cutting edge as an interesting and lively forum.
I think people now just go aong with the majority view incase they upset one of " the faces " they met at the get together or may make things awkward at the next get together. What we have now is a sheep mentality when most of NSC are too afraid to put an alternative point of view across especially when one of the " big names " we all know who they are, put something on a thread, people just agree.
Its like a 4 line party whip.
Frankly it is making NSC boring. I know my viewpoints are different to some others but there is no lively debate just the old usual retoric and history lessons from people trying to impress us with their knowledge.
After 4 years I am sorry to say this but its true.
SADDO!!
