I'm serious.

 

What is the most obscure site that you have seen the news reported on? I've heard it on Five Live, Talksport and I saw this on Fox Sports. That's not an English version of Fox Sports, that is actually the US Fox Sports news page, never thought I'd see that.

 

Anyone know what is Al Jazeera's take is on it?

Osama had an interview from Tora Bora and thought Daish should buy Gary Abbot, but apparently Setanta own the rights and The Camerman wasn't paid, so Bin Laden's agreed to maintain radio silence.

You know thats what riles me the most!!??

 

These newbies wont know who Portway and Cotter were or who Barr and Evans were (or werent!! hehe)

 

Maybe im being selfish but name change aside thats who we are. Charlie Mac, Liam Hatch, Mark bentley - real history and good times.

 

Im depressed with all this!!

What was the average before today?

Tell us some exciting figures.


All I can say is, I have spent the day ensuring that the forum stays online - it has cost me a few pennies - but it is worth it.

With other sites falling over - I will do everything to ensure that ALL sporting fans can talk about sport freely here.

As an example, the EUFC site yesterday got 467,000 hits. Today it received three and a half million, and when you consider it only lasted half an hour this morning before meltdown and nobody could actually read anything after 10.30am, that's an awful lot.

 

I'm trying to move it to a more beefy server over the next 48 hours but with a fulltime job and a lost day (having done sweet FA but refresh the forum today!), it's kinda hectic.

I am a MyFC member (as if you couldn't guess from my registration date!) and may I just say that Charlie Mac and Mark Bentley are indeed two great players. As a Southend (and hopefully, soon to be EUFC fan!), I understand what real football means. Sadly, Charlie has not really had the chance to make it with Southend yet but what I have seen of him has been impressive and if the opportunity comes up, I'm sure he could do a job for EUFC again. It's just a pity obviously extremely talented players (27 goals last season?!) such has him never seem to get a fair crack of the whip at Southend.

Thanks Ian, we're moving to a dedicated server for an initial month with the current hosts, but will likely PM you tomorrow.

A serious well done - despite MyFC making preparations the MyFC foorum was offline for a few hours because of the sheer volume of traffic on the site.

There has been quite a few MyFC members (like myself) posting on here today and a lot more browsing. Hopefully things will settle down soon and the discussions will become a bit more 'amicable'.
