    I want to come here to chat crap about football, not Unwanted Phone Calls and 7 year olds' toiletry habits.

    Admins, could we have an off topic/football section, so it can be filtered out?

    Never accept the world (forum) as it appears to be. Dare to see it for what it could be.

    Or just open the disscusions that interest you. If you open one and see it's non footy then close it.

    This forum would die without the off topic posts.

    As someone pointed out recently, just look at the number of replies to football posts* compared with others


    (* except when one person posts intentionally controversial views)

    I've never been one for thinking things should have to stay as they are just because that's what people are used to. Saying that though, it's a bit cheeky to join somewhere on the Thursday and start asking admin to make changes that would affect everyone by Tuesday; especially without even trying to find out what the majority of people would like.

    If there's a rambling political rantfest going on which you don't like, just post something about Brad Potts, or about 5 new goalkeepers. That usually gets things back on track.

    This post has made me think twice about posting about gimp masks and leather bullet belts now.

    Maybe I'll just stick to butt plugs

    I find your post disrespectful to Brad Potts. You should ban yourself immediately.
