By all means talk about whatever takes your fancy, but it would be nice if as much time and effort went into football threads. Recently the site has become much more of a political one, with continual and repeated attacks on the BBC, the Royal family, the government, the PM and I’ll admit I have tried to redress balance by having a go at Russia, Labour and Jeremy. I’m not a political activist and am even unsure who to vote for so it’s not my scene.
I don’t think it helps for the moderator who I thought was to provide for balance, to play a leading role in some of these, maybe you should ask Football mad for their thoughts. I doubt new members will be attracted by the politics. Few seem to stay around for long.
As I said I’m stopping contributing on those threads, partly for my own sanity, but also in the hope we spend most of the time talking about football and especially our club. I probably overpost and some may not merit discussion, but very few get more than a handful of responses, so I’m questioining why I bother.
There is little news about the club on here these days and what does mainly comes from the papers or internet. Alto manfully runs match threads but few of us contribute. I wrote an article months ago on a past player that has yet to appear so have stopped doing these.

Maybe few of us are local to Burnley I’m not so it is a challenge especially as I’m not a Sky subscriber and get to one game a year.
Can we do anything to build up our local contacts and members and football content?
