    I did this at request of lots of members during the referendum and got slaughtered by some members especially supertyke lol. This forum as always allowed any thread and shouldn’t be changed apparently.

    It was only temporary while the referendum threads calmed down and stopped taking over the board.

    We could keep a tally of how many years since our last goal away from home... bit repetitive and boring mind.

    I’ll abide by any decision if it has a two thirds majority!

    No, leave it as it is. Definite pattern amongst those calling for it to be moved. Stifling debate?? They don't like it up 'em...

    Does it need to be 2/3rds of votes cast for Politics to leave the main board or is it 2/3rds of signed up as there are 3600 members that means we need 2400 to vote in favour - does that sound about right :)
