'I didnt realise CM was Burnleys only fan site' - it's not, try The Longside.

Top site Leisure,do you post on there?[/quote]


Really Alf?! Dunno why but I actually went and had a look.

It seems to hav about half dozen people on. They family members or something. They would be better off shouting to each other through the house.

And phuck me is it slow, the servers made of wood? Actually had to shut it down as was slowing my whole computer and was worried poker site would crash.

It makes this site seem both busy and fast, and that takes some doing. Kinda like some-one making Jordan look like a virgin, or Piers Morgan humble.[/quote]

As for Burnley having the biggest board on Footie Mad I agree it is true but then they don't have another like we do.

I really don't see what point you're making above, as I wasn't criticising you not being as busy a FootyMAD board as us. I was explaining why you get a lot of Burnley fans on other MAD boards due to the numbers, and how easy it is to click around using the team drop down.

Burnley do have a couple of other forums, although they're really quiet in comparison. Rovers have Roverstalk and BRFC, and other clubs have other boards, but Clarets Mad is as popular as several clubs boards put together, but in one place. This make it easier as you only have to find one board to talk about Burnley really, as good as The Longside and NoNayNever are to the few who use them.

EDIT: Burnley used to have an official forum but that died with the over zealous moderation. You couldn't criticise the club/players in anyway as it was deleted

It's really a combination of things.

1. Venkys
2. The whole Kean thing created a bit of animosity.
3. Leading to arguments amoungst posters
4. Posters signing up to be abusive, leading to a deteriation in conversations
5. Disagreement by posters on this board of how to handle the situation in terms of protesting during games, boycotting etc
6. Many of the best posters not going anymore, leading to there not being much to talk about on the football front.

But there is no doubt that this board is a shadow of its former self. Although I actually think it's better than it was a year ago, when it really hit rock bottom.

I can only speak for myself with this:

1. I am a boycotter, so no home games means I have nothing to say about them.
2. I was so upset with the Kean/Venky's thing that I came on here and was extremely negative, even I got fed up of reading my tosh
3. My computer has died and I have to either use the moosus's or the works, meaning I have less time to peruse the interweb
4. My PS4
5. [s]Hard core drug/alcohol/substance misuse problem[/s] - Only joking.

I do try and pop on when I am on the interweb, but with the baby on the way I can only see the time reducing even more.

Nowt to moan about? Reading's result yesterday pretty much confirmed that there's nobody rubbish enough to allow us to sneak into the play-offs this season. Which in my opinion has set the seal on it happening again for a long time. Venkys have p*ssed up the wall the A£32m advantage we had over the majority of this league the last 2 seasons by hiring mediocre to garbage rookie managers.

We're in the home straight on our transition from 2000-2010 Rovers to 1970-1990 Rovers. There's a lot to moan about in my opinion unless you're able to opt for selective amnesia. The problem is moaning about it has never done any good and its too late now even if it suddenly did.

Its definitely not a satisfi
