Register on the blog (http://foot.ie/../blog/wp-login.php?action=register) with (exactly) the same username and email address you used to register on the forum.
Send a private message to A face (http://foot.ie/private.php?do=newpm&u=25) or dahamsta (http://foot.ie/private.php?do=newpm&u=1) asking to be promoted to Contributor.
When you receive confirmation you were promoted, go to Create New Post (http://foot.ie/../blog/wp-admin/post-new.php) and login.
Write your post using basic formatting; i.e. use the formatting tools on the Visual editor, but no HTML.
If you want to use an image, either add a note to the post pointing to it, or ask one of us for an email address to send it to. The image should be yours, or you should have permission to use it.
When you're done with your post, PM A face to let him know, as he doesn't get a notification.At this point you should be done. A face will fact-check it your post and revert to you if anything needs to be confirmed. He'll notify me that he's done with it, and I'll do final editing (grammar and spelling). Then it's published.

Any questions?

What exactly are we allowed write? I presume nothing specific to just one individual club?

Anything you want, if we don't like it we'll delete it. :)

Seriously though, if it's about Irish football and it's any way good at all, it'll probably be published. I don't see why there should be a problem with posting about a club.

I tried to register and was told a password would be sent to my email address, but none has yet been sent, about 36 hours later. Is there any problem?

That process is automated, so it's either in a Junk or Spam folder, or you put in the wrong email address.
