I'll wait and see if he says anymore about the matter before saying anything else I reckon

Liam was just a little upset that after they spend a lot of time on the merch people were throwing harsh words at it. I still think people are entitled to their honest opinion, but I guess we should just draw a line under it all now and move on as normal. I'm sure many of you saw Liam's last tweet so I wish him all the best and hope everything's ok.

Move on Sean?? Not just yet.... It's not like there were loads of comments slating the merch, I think there was one comment about not liking t-shirts and a few mainly about the prices. Like you say Sean, everyone has their own opinions and can post them but there was no onslaught against the merch, far from it

Got a private tweet assuring me that they all love all the fans... As did I. I know Darren, it's the mentality of someone doesn't like something so you throw your toys out the pram against a forum who's done lots for the band over the years. When you create something, no matter how hard you work, not everyone's going to like it. It seems just because we're not ex Oasis loving drunkards who will lap everything up and chant "Liam" repeatedly as if he's a messiah, we shouldn't be able to have an opinion on something. Anyway, got that off my chest, whatever.

Dear Sean and whoever else,
You hiss and groan and you constantly moan but you don't ever go away, And that's because, All you need is .... You roll your eyes up to the skies mock horrified, But you're still here All you need is .... There's so much destruction all over the world, And all you can do is complain about ... You don't like .... but you love .... Either way you're wrong. You're going to miss .... when they're gone
God bless the band FERGAL

It is not possible to love a band without blind adoration for everything they do? Saying that, I don't recall anyone having such a huge problem with the merch. And even if they did there's no reason for him to take such offence. I'm sure everyone knows that they've taken time over it and appreciates that but if someone doesn't like it then so be it. Fair enough if someone was openly rude about it or something, but that didn't happen. This was never such a big deal until that tweet, which I still think was a bit unnecessary.
And if we're going down the song lyrics route, I'll never dance with a sycophant..

I wasn't even having a go, all harmless comments really... errr yeah I think we shouldn't dwell on this, definitely worse things happening than to let this bother us

And aren't you the one that's never going to "go away"? "You're still here". You can speak for yourself when you put all these poetic, elaborate thoughts on the forum, but maybe you like the band more. I won't miss them when they're gone.

I was toying with the idea. If they were on the same day as Arctics I would've, but not paying £140 to just see them.
