PatMan replied to News Shopper's topic in Ebbsfleet United Forum
So - whats the real story with the forum and the associated story about selling the website etc.... -
How is the speed of the forums for you now?

Running via Firefox, and really notice the improved page loading time... Also, pages now 'fit' better than a day ago, guess still tweaking the site? -

Largest home attendance - 2013 (All paying? Not 100% sure, but Dartford are very good at promoting themselves to local schools so would assume a good few giveaways) Next largest - 1,78 -

Not a view that is shared by all tho Gaz... -

Unfortunately the internet crowd disappeared as fast as the "Wembley" crowd when it came to home matches against FGR etc

But most of those who signed up, did want exactly that - to RUN a club. To what extent, I dont know. If it was all about picking the side, surely FM08 was the better choice. Why didn't the project work? To my mind, any single internet based project with 30k plus members will struggle - those of you who use other forums, and seen them 'hi-jacked' by 3 or 4 others will understand my comment. From zero to 30k, a -

A win would have helped without doubt, but most fans would sacrifice this competition for league survival... -
Originally Posted By: loosely Personally, just an opinion but Mr Daish has had some very loyal support and I wouldn't begin to question his playing management skills but, maybe it is time for a fresh approach at the Fleet. Nothing stays the same forever. Problem is - what kind of man would want to work with EUFC/MyFC just now? Finances are in a right mess, budget cuts inevitable, not even sure if its a full or part-time position. And still there is this unknown spectre of PTT...

Originally Posted By: loosely Well as I said, I can't comment can I? I didn't say that I did not believe you, but that is faith not evidence and you haven't offered any. Abusive can be about context too. Don't be abusive and you can talk about what you like. Can't say the same about the "Officious" Forum though can we? Great escape clause... "So, Mr PatMan - you claim that your posts were deleted from the "revenue" thread on FF?" "Yes, your honour" "Hmm, likely story - can you prove this?" "Well, no - seeing as the threads in question are now deleted." "No evidence then? -

I guess it all depends on context. Far from offended. The INTERNET is not the place for those who are easily offended! More upset by the fact you think its ok to sa
