    See forum rules.

    No need for thread after thread with the same content.

    Language and Trolling

    Do not post provocative, outrageous, or pointless messages only to get a response from others (trolling). If it is clear that a user has no intention of positively contributing to discussions, and displays abrasive, combative attitude, that user may be removed from the site. Users must demonstrate an interest in contributing to discussions.


    Multiple Threads
    Please avoid creating multiple threads on the same topic. This way, a discussion can be avoided by users who have no interest in the topic. If multiple threads on a specific single topic are created, the threads may be merged or deleted.

    Does this count on match day?

    Finally a match thread like every other football forum in the world instead of tons of one post threads?

    Hopefully this is the case, as I feel it'll spark more debate.

    I enjoy reading the match day thread on our opponents message board. It gives an insight into thoughts prior during and after the game in one place.

    I think there should be one match day thread. It adds to focus and debate.

    This would be much better. There must be 40+ threads on a match day and many of the better ones are lost because 6 people post that there's been a goal.

    Well it says multiple threads on the same topic will be merged so I'd say to avoid double standards we will be having a matchday thread from this weekend.

    I think this is a great idea at last, because this board gets totally cluttered up with far too many posts about the same subject.
    Why do fans start several separate pointless threads on match days for example, when they are all saying/posting the same thing (about a goal scored, or a goal conceded, or a pen, or a crap ref etc.) ?
