Old Holborn has closed his Blog Comments.

I can understand that he is being inundated with crank and nasty comments, But by closing comments altogether he will alienate those that have supported him in the past. If you remember the Nick Hogan affair,

then you'll realise that it was the support in the comments that galvanised most of us to donate to the fighting fund.

So Holbie, stand up to the crease and realise that you have to take the rough with the smooth.  I do respect that you feel that you've  been driven to this course of action. But I think that you are wrong to pull down the shutters on the world , in the hope that those nasty people will go away. There  lies defeatism. "They have won".

However it's your blog, and you can do what you please. but just have a rethink. Please

UPDATE:

Comments are enabled. Well done OH for stepping up to the plate.
