It's all to do with message boards outside of bigfooty or the lack thereof.

North supporters have nowhere else to go hence they're all here and form a group of super flogs.

The Saints board is very tame because all the ******s are at Saintsational.

We did once many years ago and the club shut it down IIRC so most of the older crew drifted over to BF. I joined BF the day after the Carey scandal broke.

I don't think we are a group of super flogs.

We let anyone come to the NMFC Board and post unlike others.

-People who give more than a half-**** about the royals. I don't care about them, so no-one else should.
-Businesses that don't accept credit cards. We live in the digital age people. Legal tender is for the poor!
So we should only care what you care about?

What a ******* load of shit.

But you can't post anything slightly negative or you'll be banned for trolling.

I'll admit you're not all flogs, especially not the ones that post on GD. The posters that have 1000s of posts only on the North board are the mega-uber flogs I refer to.

I heard that a BF'r got a red card on Saturday night for liking. Banned for a week after being warned not to like.

Cant wait to hear what his version is when he gets back on.
Is he the guy that got warned against liking, and proceeded to like every single post in the 'rant' thread as retaliation?

What do you mean the club shut it down?

It used to be hosted via the club website and was called 'Forum'. There were some nutters on there...Michele stands out IIRC.

Anyway, it might not have been the Club...more to do with all clubs transitioning to the AFL website...we didn't bother with our own again, although these days the website prolly has the capabilities to host a forum.

I tried to join Saintsational before I joined this forum but never got my account approved for whatever reason, probably a blessing in disguise as there are a lot of knobs there and it's a terrible forum to read with the black background. Most of the Saints posters on our board here are pretty sensible and we don't meltdown after a loss anywhere near as badly as other team boards. I'm probably considered one of our biggest flogs and even I'm not that bad.

The welfare dependant young English couple and their son who are about to have a nice little jolly out here, our shout.
In fairness Will, Kate and little Prince Tubby are quite likeable as far as Royals go and they bring a lot of joy and excitement to people wherever they go and when people feel good they usually spend more which boosts the economy so they probably pay for themselves. It's like in the UK where there are complaints about the Royals sponging off taxpayers money but they bring in a lot of money from tourism with tourists going there to see them and Buckingham Palace.
