       Whistleblower - I didn’t mean to dislike your post (reply #58)
       and it wouldn’t let me undo the rating either  ::)

       Thank you ajb95.  When one posts on an open forum then one must
       be prepared for likes and dislikes and rather like Kipling's
       advice on triumph and disaster treating those two impostors just
       the same. I did wonder what you disliked about my post and now I
       know it was nothing. I am grateful for you to have taken the
       trouble to point that out.
       I think one of the drawbacks of our mostly excellent forum is
       that we cannot appear to undo reactive symbols once given ,
       perhaps over hastily or in error.

       It looks like Neil Davies has replaced Eddie Smart on the FIFA
       list.. they’ve finally updated the site to reflect this year!

       Poor that they can't get his name the right way round on an
       official document.

       Am I right in thinking that Eddie has never been assistant at an
       F A Cup Final? Will this mean he may miss out?
       Was it his choice to step down?

       Ratings can be changed but only while still on the same page,
       after moving to another page or another site it's too late -
       maybe the RTR equivalent of being able to reverse your decision
       as long as you've not restarted the game. Perhaps ideally the
       "like" and "dislike" icons would be further apart to reduce the
       risk of clicking on the wrong one? I'd prefer not to have
       "dislike" icons so that anyone who dislikes or disagrees with a
       post would need to explain their views.

       We have no control over the set up of them or how they work.
       They are a non editable feature on the forum - we'd love to be
       able to fix not being able to change a rating wrongly entered
       (done it myself more than once!) and change the options but
       unfortunately we can't.  I think we can switch them off
       completely though.

       There must be a supply issue with 2021 FIFA badges as Bankes is
       wearing the FA badge this afternoon at Crawley.

       Don't they always wear the FA badge for FA cup games?
