    This site is becoming increasingly more frustrating with it being impossible to access on match days now. I'm even considering joining the New Playground😀

    In all seriousness, I may be tempted to do what Prando has done and use both but one problem is that I'm an old git now and rather stuck in my ways so don't particularly like change ( being a bit of a technophobe doesn't help either!). The other problem-the biggest one-is that I like all the regular contributors to this site, I enjoy and look forward to the banter and the discussions on here with you all.

    Of course there have been some unwarranted issues on here in the past that sadly led to the likes of Mick and Soulman leaving but things have since improved a lot. Disagreements over stuff (mostly politics of course &#128512 remain, but it would be very strange if there were not and any debates seem far more respectful than they had been at times in the past.

    I haven't "looked over the fence" as 68 puts it and am only aware of Regis and Boingy (and this "John" character &#128513 and certainly have no issues with either of them but do understand 68's concerns over any potential "welcoming" issues that some individuals may have.

    In any event, unless this site fails completely and unless everyone here also moves over I'm likely to stick with this one for the time being. I just hope it can get sorted!

    To be fair Omeg and I know a lot about web development- it will be on a shared platform so like thousands of sites it can be hard to access with volume of traffic at times. That site has had issues too and John has said he would like to come on here - more for him to engage in with accurate footie banter as opposed to continually saying I beg to differ with others which is tedious. Even Regis posts on here a lot so what does that say😭. In their own words there?s been lots of posters registering and have disappeared including Dubs!

    I like many others will stay on here until the lights are switched off and even then not go on that site as it?s boring with no other topics and being told we are a great team blah blah and we are far from it. The table never lies!!!!

    PS - as 68 says it tells a lot too about sniping and looking over the garden fence. In life you should move on if something else is more successful but as Dubs clearly found out - it?s not.

You have nothing to worry about though.
    Noticed your new site is members only now, presumably to drum up membership numbers and increase interest. And to keep snidey comments behind closed doors too presumably. Fair enough. No skin of my nose to be honest. All of the very best with the site and to all who post on there. I won't be joining though. Never really fancied living in a gated community. Toodeloo.

    The Marketeer in my tells me NO new members would sign up without seeing what?s in the shop window😂. Would you go on a dating website without seeing what?s on offer and what your half a pint of lager will get you? 😂😂😂😂

    To be honest Al and 68 - you chums are better off just ***ting each other than post here.
    We?ve got 50 odd members registered. Dubs is on but has not posted here or on the other side for a while. Since we locked the forum we?ve had more engagement and I think generally everyone has appreciated that. You both can make snide remarks too but i?m starting to see why they might be made about you.

    You bag on about the other site not having enough posts, who cares? It was only created due to lack of accessibility and functionality of this site. Are you telling me that this site is popular with threads from a variety of people?

    Take the last few threads?
    Blackburn
    Trumps latest comments
    Thoughts for Bristol
    Chelsea Fine
    Isaac Price
    Meningitis Scare

    All of the latest posts are from none other than you Al. Don?t give me that drivel again John.

    Now now Regis - calm down! To be honest I am surprised anyone on your site even looks at this one as there?s a saying in life - move on 😂

    You must like the topics yourself - as your on here faster than our Jed?s legs 😂

    As i’ve said Al, i frequent both sites.. am I supposed to be ashamed of that? I’m not, i like reading viewpoints.. but when the usual dross is repeated then that’s another matter.

    Face it, you’re the gob shy te of this board. Not many will disagree. Okay maybe not your chum68.

    Never thought in my life middle age men would be bickering over what people post, how they post and how much they post - it’s a bit sad to be honest Al. We all support the same team ffs.
