EDIT - I suggest all of us here go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/complaints/make_complaint.shtml (the complaint thing where rover fans are saying Clarkson sucks) and write that Jeremy is great and funny and he should get a raise. Im going to register to that rover forum just to bash them lol!

I decided to Stirr up the conversation in that thread, so I registered there and wrote:

Many rover drivers (those from forums.mg-rover.org) have no life, (the fact that they own a Rover alone makes up for this premise) and decided to bash Jeremy Clarkson for what he said about Rover and the unemployment of their workers. What they don’t bother to think is that all those unemployed workers will get a better job. I mean, even fixing shoes will bring more happiness and success to their life. I much rather stand on a good pair of shoes that will take me from A to B than sit on a pile of **** that will probably stall mid way to point B. They do not agree with Clarkson’s thought about Rover being a bad company, but please understand that they have only driven crappy rover cars, therefore, they have no base for comparison to know how a good car feels and drives compared to their ****ty cars. As things are, Clarkson isn’t to be blamed; it’s the people who drive Rovers who are guilty for providing money to such a bad company to build more of the same ****.

Interestingly, the BBC complaints website doesn't require any data except "are you over 13"? so go for it, everybody, sticking to the facts!

yes it does... Ive registered like 3 accnts with JC on or JEREMY or something related to that, it seems that there is someone with no life monitoring each new registered user. I had to put MGroverMG as nick and post fast. As soon as I posted, I got banned, at least 1 post of mine went in.

Register an accnt without Jeremy or Clarkson or anything bashing them as nick. just choose something not related and go there and post fast!

I dont have a complaint, but i think the rover crew should stop crying. Clarkson is great, and he deserves a raise. Buy him a Kenne Bell Supercharger for his Ford GT.

Here is my complaint

HAHAHAHA, lol, good going DEMON.
It appears there is a sense of humor filter installed over on that rover forum. Rover has been dead in the water for years, finally it shall be put to rest. Unfortunate for the workers yes, but as has been said on the news the land that the factory is situated on will be redeveloped (as its owned by someone other than rover) which will yield many jobs. I guess the workers will have to learn how to do something different!

EDIT: Someone over there with a head screwed on:

Now I am in no way defending Clarkson, I really can't be bothered watching anything with him on it to be honest.

But I will say this, has no-one ever chuckled at a joke made at someone else's expense? I can think of a number of tragedies that have sparked off a load of gags.

The Shuttle Disaster
The Ethiopian Famine
The Michael Jackson court case
The Chernobyl disaster.

In many cases these jokes were at the expense of peoples lives, not just their livelihoods.

Don't rise to the bait, just take it on the chin, Clarkson will soon find someone else to pick on.
