Well that was good for a laugh if nothing else :rolleyes: . Where is Hog/Hitch??? Leaving some of the clinic 12 out. Tut tut. Some of those people don't even post anymore eg RR, 131313, BroDeal etc. A lot of the best posters long gone.

Best current posters:
Libertine
hrotha
Merckx Index
Escarbarjo

No issues with the OP topic for me.

But there will be no listing of worst posters in any part of this forum.

Sorry to spoil (part of) the fun :)

Hard to choose between Hrotha, The Hitch and Libertine for me although I do enjoy some of the comedy characters as well (who I am obviously not allowed to name).

By including yourself in the best category, it automatically discredits your OP.
blackcat has earned the right to refer to himself in the third person. Sometimes I let him ghostwrite my posts.

Freddy The Frog's good. Some of his analysis and insights, into British Cycling especially, are so spot on I wonder whether he is, or has been, quite close to the 'coal face'.
 
I'd like to include ChrisE. Don't know what happened to him, but he had a good sense of humour and was always good at poking fun at those who took things too seriously.
I don't mean to include those who are familiar with the science of sport.
