This is simply a supposition. It's not supported by the evidence and it doesn't make sense on the facts. Why do OT posts put people off posting or responding to football posts? They can simply ignore them as I ignore 70% of posts on MM.
What can you find to discuss about football sufficient to support a site day-to-day? The reality is that on many footie posts someone states that they don't like what the manager is doing, or they don't rate player A or they think a different system should be tried. Immediately then a number of diehards come on to shoot the poster down saying to the effect "How long have you been a professional football manager? In Warne we trust. UTM" Debate over until the next time when exactly the same response emerges.
I suggest that Cam and Frog ban all OT posts immediately and that should include drivel about cricket and other so-called sports. However, if when they do this and membership falls off a cliff and all the predicted returnees fail to appear then millertop accepts he was wrong and leaves the site for ever. Fair enough?
