hi all,

Anyone know if the site is down and what's going on? Does anyone care?

[Nasher 33,129]

Yes, it's been broken since yesterday. It's been running without anyone really behind the wheel for a couple of years now, it's a wonder it's stayed up this long.

Look up George on the Outer on these forums and send him a message, he's the only one who could possibly help.

I care.

I like to shake my head at the resident lunatics, Ding and HHNF.

Almost zero football content, but they make me feel better about myself.

Now that Ding bloke isn't a bad guy (isn't he your twin brother?) but the other one, that's another story.

Looks like they have gone into a time warp.

Maybe Dr Who invited them to a ride in his tardis.

Bluey is their only hope.

[Range Rover 1,935]

I occasionally flick the channel over there for some yucks. Bluey is good value but honestly can't tell sometimes if he's taking the pish. Rivvo's a good read, Dee_Flower is the site's resident arch-pessimist and TGR their sanctimonious know-it-all.

Maybe they'll all gravitate over here now. Should be interesting. Like picking up a dozen or so quality players from a dying club's list.

But would they get a game here in a metaphorical top 4 side?

Yuh, according to the site banner our next game is against Footscray. We have Neita playing for us so that should help...

Don't get me wrong I like the 'Ology boys but they're the Casey Scorps of MFC footy forums!

* edit ... to answer your question ... definite starter. Chuck me the forward pocket, would cause all sorts of trouble.

Well, our own MFC doesn't have a full list of current directors on its website; unlike the 'ology volunteers, there are people at MFC who are paid to attend to such "front of shop" stuff.

Speaking of other demon forums and posters, I often lurk on big footy purely to read biffenators weekly match previews. Comedy gold, what a legend!

Hi Rob.

yes, of course he is my brother. I still think he sounds half crazy when he is tearing into the other nutter.

You ought to hear the way he talks about the bloke in person. omg

Anyway, i just wish the site owner would hand it over to someone so it can be fixed for good, as it has been dying a slow death for the last couple of years.

Yes it's a shame and a pity that it is in the current state. It wouldn't surprise me what Ding says about him I probably say the same myself, him and that other one IRW are a reason not to post there, not the only ones though.. Might catch up with the pair of you at a game soon are you going out to Casey at all now? Give him my regards.

[pitmaster 3,064]

It's not as active as this site but it does have some quality contributors.

To add to those named above I would add Stinga and Robbie87. Both are smart, non panicky and thoughtful.

DeeFlower on the other hand is not just their resident pessimist but is a waste of time and space. I see her tag and I taste lemons. Weird and not worth reading.

[Nasher 33,129]

Who gives a RATS not me.

If you don't care then stay out of the thread. Pretty easy.

[demon3165 1,981]

Would have thought the more Melbourne sites the better, there are the same amount of nuff nuff's on this site as with Ology.

The posters on this site are a little less personal and generally younger. With Ology I found that most threads finished up in a fight and most of the time it was "score settling" and had nothing to do with the topic.

I post here and don't go to bed with a headache.

Would have to agree with you on that side of things RobbieF

just detected a pulse in ology, but it slipped back into a coma

don't worry the mods will ensure that any of the value of those type of posters is immediately censored, its for our own protection

[daisycutter 28,612]

bit sad really.....i quite enjoyed the odd foray into 'ology land

bit like having a red headed sister

[Deestroy All 14,262]

I find myself just opening the page and sitting there, thinking about the place. Kind've like a serial killer returning to its dumping ground.

[Samsara 65]

Never ventured to 'ology - this site and Big Footy is enough as it is.

I dont get back there much now, although I was a screaming mess in my folks house for the essedon win. A full bottle of Johnny Double Black, and 2 Zantac got me through the nerves.

I'm working in the Solomon Islands, on a 2 week on/off roster, and just bought myself a house in the Philippines. (near Abu Sayef country in southern Mindanao) Nothing better than relaxing a my Kubo, with a dozen filipinas, while necking a few litres of cold Red Horse.

Unlikely that I will be back for a full break, until August, or even September. Will let you know if Ding and I are about.

faulty.

And to all on here, if 'Ology folded, you would certainly pick up a few quality posters. There are a few who have great training info, and very good opinions on matters football.

Even the self-centered jerkoffs like TGR are actually good reading occasionally, if you can put the "look at me" to the side, and read the info itself.

I would hope the site gets up and going, in a new format soon, because without new members, it is doomed, as the site nutters just wont let things go and keep to a topic, without slagging off and getting aggressive.
