    Giving members the opportunity to decide if we should have a trial where political threads have their own forum.

    If boring, repetitive and pointless is the issue, there are many posters who deserve their own forums.

    In the summer there were a few calling for this as in their words the forum was mostly political threads .
    If it hadn’t been for political threads or jokes about politics all threads then imo the forum would have been almost static with posts from days ago still halfway down the current page .

    Surely if a separate forum is created for politics, you have to ban everything aside from football on the main board? No?

    When you’re going to the game with your mates do you move to a different pub if someone wants to talk about something that isn’t football?
