You honestly can't be

Your honestly can't be serious
This has been the most vicious speculation I can recall
An exercise in discretion would look completely different
let me help you - lets assume the worst - say Milne - who was involved in a very criminal investigation
The innuendo around Carlisle is patently worse
The mature discretionary stance is contemptuous

Lets say I was the first who knew about Milne's case
Would it not have been possible for me to state on bigfooty that he "may have boundary issues with women"
Would that be worse than me suggesting outrage that St Kilda have not sacked him, wondering how any of his team mates could endure his presence. The first we understand and Milne retains his dignity in the face of serious allegations in the second your acting as the judge jury and executioner whilst pretending how mature and discretionary you are being.

Seriously are you 12?
I haven't claimed that anyone acted with discretion, in fact I imagine that most posters who have commented on these rumours now wish they hadn't based on the ensuing shit storm. But personally attacking them is not called for, these are the same guys who provide most of the information that keeps this thread ticking.

These are just rumours of rumours, things will only get exponentially worse if the details of these rumours are shared.

Until you realise that IP addresses are really easy to trace and you're liable for whatever you post. Very real possibility that you could get done.
You've just redefined ignorance.
All well and good until you remind yourself that no one is ever held liable for anything they have said on the internet. The 'internet police', huh? Give me a break. If it were a very real possibility half of bigfooty would have been shut down and convicted by now. Don't get me started on some of the filth getting around on 4chan or even facebook at times.

Because if the truth makes it onto a forum, the Internet will break. You all think speculating on a rumour is frustrating, commenting on the truth would be 100 times worse.
Dude that is embarrassing for you, for the board and our club on so many levels.
As the guy is not under arrest. As he is overseas on holiday, the courts have not placed a ban on his travel. So whatever he is said to have done cannot be so bad.
Quite frankly, I find your insinuations more offensive than anything Carlisle may have done

So lets speculate, he slept with someone's girl friend, boy friend, mother father or pet. He took some party drugs. Perhaps he inserted a foreign object into himself. All part of growing up.
It is far worse that one of our Players revealed our game plan to our Elimination Final Opponent, far, far, worse and yet no one has had any problem revealing this to the entire world

Sleeping with a pet is all part of growing up?

For someone who claims not to care, you are doing a lot of caring

We did, however, recruit Barry Hall...
Not long after he belted Chris Grant behind play and put him out of the game.
yet we still cheered for him. Supporters seem quick to forgive if someone decides to choose their chosen tribe.

Most vicious speculation since IAGO where you wanted Monty's career destroyed...

How about you quit your hypocrisy, the extreme sweeping statements, the petulant abuse and name calling.

I'd much prefer people share what they see fit. I couldn't give a flying glory be if that upsets your 'sensibilities'

I care because the innuendo is so vicious
I just know that the rumours will far exceed reality.
I have been given 3 different stories and none of them need necessarily be anything but mundane. They may or may not be serious
And given the exaggerated chivalrous prudence, I suggest the whole thing is way overblown

Any info in if we'll offer Grant a new contract if he gets no worthwhile free agency offers? Yeah he's not quite best 22, but he's handy depth who can pay multiple roles, i'd be disappointed if we delisted him after he finally showed consistency and put together a solid season

This thread is ridiculous. You have a whole lot of posters wanting the world to know that they are privy to information that others are not privy to, yet they don't want to share it for fear of it being wrong. The only reason they keep posting and replying to questions with "no comment" is because they want people to know that they are in the loop.

It's pretty simple really, stop talking about cards falling in place, and certain things needing to happen, because all it does is increase the speculation and innuendo surrounding the player.

FWIW, I don't want Carlisle. It has nothing to do with this supposed rumour (which if is what I have heard, I would be blown away if it's true, knowing the family and their background). Put it to bed and let the club do their job.

Iago is a middle aged Adult Coach - he can take it or should be able to - and the innuendo's were what about him conniving positioning for a head coaching role.

Surely, you must see that the distinction between Montgomery conniving for a job and the speculation over 24 year old Carlisle is much more unsavoury. Not to mention that Monty being positioned already within the club was in a powerful position to counter any speculation or character charges.

Unfortunately, you have not thought thru your reflexive swipe at me.
