You're all Nottingham now!
I'm not sure if this news has hit Leicester yet, but the people here in Derby are going Radio Rental.
Ruth Kelly has announced that there are to be 8 "City Regions". These will be Birmingham, Bristol, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle, Nottingham and Sheffield.
Nottingham will include Leicester and Derby. There will be one elected Mayor who will look after the whole City Region much as Ken Livingstone rules over London.
Honestly, it isn't April 1st, it's in the Derby Evening Telegraph.

Kicks and scrums and ruck and roll.....Is all my brain and body need!
those new generalisations are sure gonna hack some people off. people in oxford are now "bostiiiin", people in chester are "thieving scousers", people in leicester are "drug dealing gangsta rappers", people in boro are "deluded geordies", people in blackpool are ":censored: manc :censored:", people in rotherham are "inbred pie eaters" and dolores has an IQ of 3. well there's all my offensive generalisations out the the way. :shock:

thank you for pointing out that my comments are total garbage, tigerman. I will surely take that on board :roll:tigerman wrote:I'm suprised that this thread has not been locked yet with all the total garbage spouted on it already, redtiger do try to talk some sense at times, every thread you post on goes to pot
Iain locks threads that get too long, or unwieldy, or become offensive for some reason. As far as I know there's no rule against talking occasional bilge on this forum.

in my opinion (since I am not a Moderator or Admin) and going by the boards I use regularly (and have moderated) on other subjects; I'd locktigerman wrote:I'm not picking on you Rizzo, most of the threads on here have gone to pot, so which ones should be locked & which ones should stay open, you tell me?
any thread longer than 20 pages.....would also delete same to save bandwidth. people can always start a new one.
any thread that contains name-calling, insults or abuse of players - would have said posts removed. Saying a certain player played badly etc is fine. calling a player fat/thick/useless is (IMO) not.
any thread that becomes overtly suggestive or sexual in tone or innuendo would also have a warning, then be locked if it continued. This is a family website accessible to youngsters, and thus the tone should be kept reasonably clean.
any thread or post that gives out personal details or personal/private information which is not really suitable for a publicly viewable message board.
I would not lock or delete idiotic jokey posts or threads (unless said jokes were offensive/racist/sexist) nor would I lock/delete for groups of friends having their own thread (unless it became longer than 20 pages). Even though my personal opinion is that such things should be done via private email or private mailgroup/MSN etc.
People have the choice not to read a thread if it doesn't interest them or apply to them, and occasional utter silliness isn't arguably a problem, I don't think.
That said, I'm not a Moderator or Admin here, so it's not up to me. I just gave m y opinion. And if you think some of the stuff on here gets to be garbage or whatever, you should SEE the stuff we wipe off the rock music board I've moderated!

swings and roundabouts tigerman. first to admit i do talk some complete gibberish but thats cause on most occasions i'm not a serious person, on some occasions people are having a clique and i don't feel part of it at all and sometimes i can put a serious thread on and it will descend into stupidity. i can't get into half these threads on here now but i just leave people to it. there's a million and one other things in life besides this forum.tigerman wrote:I'm suprised that this thread has not been locked yet with all the total garbage spouted on it already, redtiger do try to talk some sense at times, every thread you post on goes to pot
