Yet you still get some idiots hitting the report button, and wasteing mods time and getting them totally cheesed off.I miss the banter with the liverpool fans, as it passed a couple of hours now and then, and give us all a laugh. I think the footie should be back, and ok, i'll serve my time and come back a new, changed pleasent person.

leopards and spots spring to mind , nufc just gone 2-1 up, deffo not a footie thread.

having said that it was mostly the same people having a pop at each other and if you did not like what was being said then don't read the posts as you know what could/would be said.This sort of thing goes on all the time especially at work etc as I live in a two team town ie between city and the p*ss poor club spit spit spit r*vers. take it on the chin give some back and move on to next put down.

Having said that totally accept Brian's decision as he runs TW for everybody's benifit and just not footie fans, i'm sure it will all kick off again next season.

Yes, thats true, but we can't stop the search engine bots reading it, any posts on here are normally listed in searches very quickly, so anyone could stumble accross it.

We want peeps to find the site because of the tech info here, not because of the footie slagging eachother off type posts.
