GD The Fall Guy Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 It seems all very polite. It has far far less posts and topics than this Forum and seems to have no banter at all. So would you rather this forum be like that one without idiots like me ( ;-) lol ) and HimWhoIDoNotSpeakOf etc or do you prefer this lively vibrant forum full of characters ? I know which I prefer. I think the problem in this forum sometimes is the fact there are so many different strong characters. We do rub each other up the wrong way sometimes. I wouldn't have it any other way though ! And I'd happily chat to anyone off the forum and even buy you pint ( if you are lucky ;-) ). I don't bear grudges although some of you do wind me up from time to time ! Likewise I do to you ! Have a nice day ! :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bomaya Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 The thing is, once you get to Step 4, most clubs have a decent forum of their own on their website and fans tend to stick to that. Plus there's the Isthmian Fans Board which is quite popular but is a very old fashioned thread-based board and is so cliquey, you can hear it coming.

The Mayor Of Simpleton Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Variety is the spice of life, GD. Compared to NLM this is a friendly and relaxed site. If you think Smudge is bad, just wait until you meet the Dotty one from Crewe and the fat and pompous one from Cheltenham... you will cry tears of blood, many already have.

VPCTFC Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 What are you looking at the Ryman forum for GD? You're with us for a couple of seasons yet boy. AK - do you really think this forum is friendly and relaxed compared to NLM? I respect your opinion but I really don't agree with it. Hoddy is a good lad and Leo is someone who's been known in non-league circles for years. He's up there with Eric Marsh as someone who's been promoting non-league football since probably before you were born. You're probably unaware of Eric Marsh. Having seen some of the tripe you write (in my opinion) I'm much more at home on NLM. You're part of the reason I don't come on here too often. You and Nice Guy who's obsessed with money and Smudge who's obsessed with Guernsey. And they think I should pay £5 a year to be a gold member. Ha! I come on here once in a while to point at people and laugh but, for serious discussion and a decent website that has tables and results on it, I use, and also fund, NLM. After saying that I am now [****!!****]ing off for another week or so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After saying that I am now [****!!****]ing off for another week or so! 1) Yes. Dotty gets away with a lot on that site, and whilst Leo has done a lot for non-league he comes across as extremely arrogant and pig-headed. Also has never said a kind word against 'the squatters' as he puts them. As for Eric, name rings a bell. 2) Good for you. 3) Tatty bye then.

Smudge Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Adam take no notice of VPCTFC,you make this site tick with your so called nonsense.Non League Matters is a fraud of a site,reason look were their posters go to watch games.Premiership Clubs, Championship,Div1 ,Div 2,they mainly never buy a beer.Even VPCTFC nicks material of this site for there,on the positive side he is a much needed statto on here.

The Mayor Of Simpleton Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Smudge, many thanks for the vote of confidence!

Lee Farmie Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Let's not confuse the FWP Isthmian Fans forum with the Non League UK one. I don't find the FWP forums old fashioned at all. I find them slicker, more flexible and easier to follow than these ones - in which they attempt to cramp too much on the page. Only downside to the proper (longstanding) Isthmian Fans one is you get quite a lot of hostility and some people just don't know when to stop bickering.

jertzee Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 When Wimbledon were in the Ryman this forum http://forums.footballwebpages.co.uk/forum.jsp?id=18 had the most bitter and twisted, sour bunch of moaners I have ever come across. They were the exact opposite of the warm welcomes we received at most CCL clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only worse is a Guestbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Farmie Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Yes, well I would choose FWP for our forum as it's easier to follow, quicker to load and it's easy to swat bluebottles. There's one thing worse than a guestbook and that's a guestbook where every posting has to be approved by Biddie Baxter before appearing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
