Ok, it appears that Mike has "borrowed" some people's articles and he should have acknowledged them. I know a lot of people here have said they don't care who wrote the articles as they are good, but thats only half the arguement: the person who originally wrote the article is wronged as his work is being passed off as someone elses on another forum. That isn't right. However, I think the vast majority here think that Mike is a great, great guy and ok, he's nicked other people's work, but maybe in the future he should credit the source and original author.

I hope Mike doesn't think its a witch hunt against him and maybe we should all draw a line underneath it all, but AB does have a point, if made a little too forcibly.

Fair enuff though but when you get the little wanna be crowd starting their own witchhunts against people who may not have a PH D in diplomacy but at least have the guts to call a shovel  a shovel regardless of who the shovel is then for me its out of order
Where has anybody said that St Mick isnt a great bloke or he should be forced out of the forum..........hmmm

Very true Laza, very true

I don't think thats necessarily true , it seems the the majority of members feel that St Mick was wrong not to credit the source of the article but at the same time many aren't that bothered where it came from as they have an ambivilant attutude to stuff posted on a footy/chat forum.
There are of course some members who prefer to make an issue out of the smallest of things . St Mick was wrong ,sure, but the words "mountains" and "molehills" spring to mind .
