    I can't see what your problem is. Any non-footy topic is clearly marked as such so you never have to waste your time reading them. If those who only want to talk football talked a bit more often, political stuff would soon be pushed out of the way.

    Sadly, politics and football are not separate issues at the moment, they're very much intertwined.

    You miss the point Eli, most of the posters who only want to talk football have been driven out, they have moved elsewhere or just stopped looking in, believe it or not there is a whole world out there & people do not have to put up with your childish spats. The problem is that these spats cross over into football threads & some posters are chased until the lose it or walk away just because they have different views, ask Tricky,Tarks,Vlad & many more (I suspect Navy will be next) I have honestly lost count of the number of posters that you & your gang have hounded off this site, some I liked, some i didn't but I'm sure it was a better forum with them, I do realise that I am wasting my time arguing with you, you are an expert who thrives on it & obviously gets his enjoyment from it, I'm not & I don't, I am beyond caring what happens on mad & hardly bother looking in nowadays but instead of blaming footie minded ex posters for the demise of this board you shoul try looking closer to home imo.

    The so-called 'demise of this board' is only your opinion, my opinion is that considering the lack of games it's still surprisingly busy. I think the notion of "posters being hounded out by me and my gang" is beyond pathetic, you have obviously been listening to tarquin far too much. There is no gang (nobody would ever let me join theirs). How exactly do you "hound someone off of the board" anyway? It's an exchange of opinions on a two-bob footy messageboard ffs, not a matter of life and death. Tricky disappeared because he got caught out trying to get this site closed down, as far as I know tarquin has decided to take break because he gets too wound up about things, and Vlad was banned for breaking the rules. None of them were "hounded off" by me or anyone else. What navypie does is up to him, but whatever he decides I'm sure it won't be because of me. You must class him as a real wimp if you think a few words from me will upset him that much!

    ps Of the 20 most recent topics, two of them were started by me. Both about football and Notts County.
