    Yes - or his alias. Pboro wasn’t it?

    P.S. IMO the site is better than it was 7/8 years ago but not quite as good as it was before then due to numbers.

    agree, this site was brilliant 16 years ago, there were loads of posters constantly online day and night.

    The Mackems and the WUM's ****ed it all up, the Mackems destroyed their own site and spent more time trying to get bites on ours

    The board is quality these days.

    No trolling and a good group of lads bantering and having grown up debates about football among other subjects.

    Better than it's been for a long time and I'm happy to be part of this board/group.

    Yeah I agree at times in the past there were a bigger volume of active users however there has been some absolute F**k holes that torpedoed the community.

    I know a lot of lads just got sick of all the venom and vicious nature of interactions. People left because of it.

    Most people are on other social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter etc. I’m actually surprised it’s still going strong, these message boards formats are dying out, people here are old school. I bet most of us here are over a certain age, I guess most are over 40?
