AO, he is telling you to shut up, esp you coz you are a banana bender

Spiny is caught in a difficult spot because his best mates are in the ACF, so he cannot speak out against Bill's threats like Ian Rogers did. At the same time, as a Victorian chess player, he knows that CV is going to get hosed here and he feels powerless to do anything about it. Hence the ridiculous, 'everyone please work together and be friends, nonsensical approach.'
