I know we have always used the term for a duplication of a post but I have no idea, or can't remember, where it originated from in the first place.
Can anyone shed any light please? |  |

Years ago when Nigel Spackman was manager of Barnsley he was sacked. On the old dot org board someone posted a thread that Spackman Sacked, this was followed by about 3/4 other people starting the same thread and then a few hours later someone else thought they were breaking the news so it just sort of grew from there. Whenever there was any sort of news someone would reply with Did you know Spackmans been sacked |  | | |

Nigel spackman got sacked and everyone on one of the old boards started new threads about it as if it was breaking news. |  | | |

Didn't Chappers lay claim to starting the Spackman thing? |  | | |

Hmmm, yes, it may well have been him. It's certainly his style! I can ask him if you like.
By the way, it was only one new thread, started by Tracy, that gave birth to the Spackman, not lots of threads.
The late, great and original dotorg, still sadly missed. |  |

I think it was when Nigel Spackman got the sack and several people submitted posts thinking it was the first time the news was being shared with the readers of the message board. It doesn't happen too regularly these days. |  | | |

is the fact that several people have given the same reasoning, in itself a Spackman?  | | | |

Pretty sure it was something to do with him getting sacked by Barnsley and someone duplicating a thread.
Possibly on Dot.org | | | |

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned but I think it was something to do with Nigel Spackman getting sacked as Barnsley Manager but multiple people reporting it without realising/looking that it had already been mentioned..... |  | | |

It was Tracy ... she posted about the sacking several days after the original thread. |  | | |

There are people who weren't around for the second announcement of Spackman's sacking. Now I feel old.
Is Chappers even a thing any more? |  | | |
