This board is rubbish. No atmosphere, no humour, no camaraderie and no Splottlight.
Terrible state of affairs.

As I haven't been invited to join any of these (presumably because of height restrictions), I seem to have drawn the short straw. It's not as though I haven't made formal requests to join. :shrug:
We only set it up to talk about Cyclops behind his back.

I don't necessarily agree with that statement.

We've had a couple of years where following City was really hard work and, hardly surprisingly, many on here wanted to talk about other things. Now though we are one point off the Play Offs with less than ten games to go, the football is much better than it was, there has been some very good off the pitch news recently and the last two home matches has seen the crowd reconnecting with the team and getting behind the manager.
There is a bit of a feelgood factor about Cardiff City at the moment and I feel lots of people are rediscovering their enthusiasm for the club, but I see very few signs of that on here.
Get The Lone Gunman back-simples :fishing:

This board has been quiet for a year or more and it will take something pretty catastrophic to get it going again. Having said that, i am glad to hopefully see the back of one or two posters whose sole purpose in life was to come on here to tell the world they no longer support our team.
Even though there may not be so many views your reports and insights are very much valued Bob. Long may they continue.

Re: I hate to say it but........
it does seem a lot quieter than the old board and a lot less threads to read through on my daily work lurkathon.
No doubt if and when something goes tits up and with City it always does it will be back to the groaning and moaning best :glasses:

Re: I hate to say it but........
I think that there has been a significant improvement on the new message board. Some of the previous boards trolls appear to be trying a little, though on times they really can't quite stop themselves. It's the "new" recently joined trolls who are the ones causing problems on here.
Otherwise it's tickadeboo.

adjective British informal dated
adjective: tickety-boo

Most of the people who have been around a bit will remember that you - only you! - have been banned half a dozen times and warned even more times for troublemaking and stirring!
Such hypocrisy.
Hilarious though. :biggrin:

I have, it's to their shame that so many others are unable to. I have the right to respond in kind.
