    Question The new message board?

    Just wondering if many people are emigrating over here after the closure of Johnny's site?

    It might be better in the long-term - what are people's thoughts?

    As a long time user of foot.ie and the eL.net msg board I'd love to see all eL fans chatting in the one place. It makes sense.

    With enough people giving a hand we should be able to get a News section going on here aswell.

    my 2 euro's worth

    well also like neil i am a user of both sites, and iwth the demise of jw's i see no reason why people dont emigrate over here.. i know a lot of the new members over that last few days that joined are all names and aliases i know from JW's, so it seems a few have come over

    why not... i mean foot.ie unlike the network54 mb's is more reliable and doesnt have those annoying pop-ups, its hosted and run in ireland and moderated by eircom league supporters..

    Well you could hardly fit any more Corkonians onto the board, could you?

    I dont mind using this one as well as the footballforums.net one which i think is good and im now the moderator aswell.The Norn iron lads have been very helpfull setting it up.As I said before i will use both which i think others should do aswell spread yourself around is what i say and that counts for more than message boards aswell .

    Isn't footballforums.net the one that used to be @ footballforums.co.uk? The guy who SPAMMED Foot.ie sometime last year? If Éanna spots that he'll go postal.

    Hey Pablo, good job rallying behind Foot.ie on Notwork54 there. I added a couple of stinging comments myself.... GO PABLO! GO PABLO! GO PABLO!

    Oh, and finally, Ultan, you just watch it boyo, or there'll be a mass exodus to your neck of the woods for the weekend. You wouldn't like The People's Republic when it's angry. Or drunk. Or in quite a good mood...

    heh

    Yeah, same one. You couldn't forget that big bloody picture of David Beckham that greets you on the site!

    I went browsing the forums last night, from the eL section in Google. The guy from footballforums.net had posted in every single forum. If there's one thing I hate, it's a spammer...

    I'm registered on footballforums.net anyway. Forgive and forget lads

    Éanna, you can browse where you want man, it makes no difference to us. Tell you what, post the intelligent commentary here, and the nasty "brit" stuff on footballforums.net, eh? Then /everyone's/ happy.

    as IF I'd ever hold a grudge

    I'm not trying to avocade the use of any forum.. but it appears to be THESAINT2002 who appears to be the only one trying hard to push the use of Footballforums.net. Is it because you a Mod there?. I don't think we should use footballforums over this one. This is an Irish site for Irish fans. If the general opinion on the pros and cons of this site have people look for an alternative, fine but don't pick that forum over this...

    Adam is a fair man and if the majority picks another site before this, it would never cause him to lose sleep, but he kept this site open when it would be easier to shut it, he asks for suggestions and always seeks to improve, so why not give it a shot, it deserves just that.
