What the hell''s wrong with this pigun site today?

Antiquated and unreliable, two words associated with the Pig Un message board imo.

There''s not much I DO agree with you about Wiz, but on this , you re spot-on.

This sort of breakdown/hiatus was once a pretty rare thing, but nowadays it happens every other day or so.

I think they''re trying out the new vitriol filters ready for Saturday when we may lose or draw or win but play ugly or win but not by enough goals or win too defensively or win with the wrong substitutions or win but not like Lamberts team would have or, or, or.......

I guess you''ve covered all bases there, Zak, of the things that p!ss you off about subject matter on this forum.

What intrigues me is what, exactly, do you think Pink'' Un forum is for if not to debate current things, both good and bad about NCFC ?

I''ve always been happy to debate Reggie what get''s me is the small group of posters who only ever appear after a defeat, it''s them that seem to prefer preaching to debate, even Wiz for all his sins will at times enter into some debate or banter others appear only to denigrate.

I knew that would come up when I wrote it, and I guessed you''d be one of the top candidates doing it.

I knew that would be your reply as you''re not as self aware as you think you are.

I do know now that, if I ever choose to take a helicopter flight above Norfolk/Norwich, it most certainly won''t be with SaxonAir!

 

Product awareness? Oh yes. In all its bloody blue overwhelming glory.

 

Potential future custom? No, no and no. For reasons above.

 

I know ads pay the way. But can''t they be subtle?   (I know-no they can''t!).

Clearly you''ve never tried booking a flight on Ryanair''s website, Shuckie.

Just have a look. What goes on there makes the Saxon Air advert look like a textbook lesson in subtlety !

I am glad it is not just me. I thought it was because of my location, my provider my cheap tablet but now I find I am in good company. And that does include you Wiz, for the first time. I have so much trouble loading a page that my tablet has timed out on several occasions.

Naughty, wicked Archant providing us with a free forum and then not making it good enough and filling it with horrible adverts.

I''m very surprised that Wiz and other critics don''t go to the expense and trouble of setting up their own forums rather than moan about someone else''s.

Yes but there are hundreds of free footie forums and a good many do not have the enormous traffic that the PinkUn benefits from.

I have yet to come across one with all the foibles that this board has... especially the embarrassing quote problem that nobody bothers to address.

''carrowroad.net''. PMSL! Says it all. Why not just stay on there if it''s super quick and I guess better (chokes with absolute laughter).

Oh, bad sources, breaking bad stories, poorly run/looks dreadful, grammar something to be desired on the pages (of old) and a handful of bullying/mouthy posters. Yep, Wiz all over.

I''m sure the pinkun could run adverts without them being so intrusive ? not that they affect me at all i downloaded the unmentionable and haven''t seen an advert for months... i wouldn''t have done that though if they had just kept it sensible and not had them popping up when you accidentally go near them with the cursor...

Hughton has said that he doesn''t need a specialist message board coach; he is still trying to find the perfect combination, balancing attack with caution in the adverts, and once he does the performance(s) will come.

Everyone should go take a look.

Noticed that of the first four news items 2 we''re lifted from the Northern Echo, one was from EDP/EEN and the other was complaining about lack of news on the NCFC site relating to the academy, so no guessing where they nick thier leads from.

 

What role does Mr Wizard perform for this site, he seems like a spin doctor.

If you were a member you could log into the members area and find out................but its not a very big role, I just like to do my bit.

 

PS. I''ll tell you this now, vendetta''s, personal attacks and nasty arguements are not tolerated on there, many members are ex Pink Un users with long memories and will quickly ''jump on'' that kind of behaviour.............posters actually get banned.

 

Unlike here!

Most members have met each other and those few who haven''t are regarded as friends too, unless their behaviour dictates otherwise Herman.

 

We just have fun supporting City....isn''t that how its supposed to be?
