That was decent, I'm sure they had a porn section. Ha

 

[Grendel]

Tim Kalns wearing only his white socks and sandals?

They did indeed. And because of a couple if nutters the general chat section had to be members only haha.

Was very funny.

Nick, what was that prick on about re: SBT having breached GDPR???
The guy's clearly a tool!
Not only have we signed up to the data policy on here, but there is no actual personal data on the letter (unless he was referring to something else).
And besides all that, we have consented to our names being used by using the hashtag "Me Too" - or was that something different?
We're fine!

 

[OffenhamSkyBlue]

So we have had 330 members read this. If the 100 or so who haven't voted have chosen not to so it doesn't make the majority figure look bad, great credit to them. But voting in favour would be better still ... HINT, HINT!!

I clicked the wrong radio button by accident so you can take 1 vote off the “not in my name” and it to the other one.

I've just made it so that you can change your vote.

Let's hope we don't see a flurry of splitters going the other way!!

I think it’s another Kalns account

 

[mark82]

Whilst how I vote, and indeed whether I choose to or not, is up to me, why would you try and make something representative of all and then try and make it difficult for people to share their view without being shouted down? How would people expressing their personal opinion 'skew' the result? It's almost as if you're trying to force a view onto people, much like many on here accuse others of doing?

As it turns out, I'm in favour of the statement and I'm largely in agreement of everything within it. Fair play Pete - gets my vote.

PS. I'd take issue with this site being the 'oldest online community', but I'll let that slide

Oldest remaining online community with GMK gone (may be wrong).

 

[PurpleBin]

LAST used to be decent.

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

I miss neo from 606:angelic:

Christ 606... blast from the past.

 

[PurpleBin]

Anyone remember when the official site used to have a forum? Aptly nicknamed "the offal"

Think it got shut down because of racism!

 

[PurpleBin]

Memory lane here...

Covcityfc.com think that shut down because the owners Dad got sick. Rory was it?

Covcitymad as well. Wasnt that Kev Monks site?

 

[torchomatic]

It must be the oldest active online community though, of note anyway. It predates the social media pages and outlasted GMK et al, unless I've missed one.

I was the first person to join after Nick. February 2008.

I remember. Didn’t it get shut down because of posts leading to McGinnity threatening to sue over libel or slander? May well (and probably am) wrong.

That rings a bell. I used to post on that. Anyone remember Vicky and Adrian?

That was GMK wasn't it? Can't remember the owners name but yeah...threatened with a libel case by CCFC!

It was GMK. At that time Neville ran it.

 

[OldBedrocker]

Wholly support and voted

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Just voted fully support the statement.

247 for.
5 against.

That's the fella. The CCFC forums back then were mad places.

Bob Bones anyone?

 

[Marty]

They did indeed. And because of a couple if nutters the general chat section had to be members only haha.

Was a great forum, I'm sure someone from that site got put away for printing his own money?

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

Knowl took over GMK and it died due to a crap sever didn’t it? Maybe I’m getting my forums mixed up.

 

[PurpleBin]

Realist hahaha. Some proper characters.

Roger Mellie springs to mind.

 

[PurpleBin]

I have such an odd memory...remember the most random of stuff.

"Someone got sent to the nick for printing money on a football forum 14 years ago who you've never met...."

Me "Realist"

Kin' weirdo hahaha.

 

[usskyblue]

That's the fella. The CCFC forums back then were mad places.

Bob Bones anyone?

He started his own forum solely dedicated to insulting me.

Ha as if? Hahaha.

 

[usskyblue]

Ha as if? Hahaha.

True story. He used my username too. It was him talking to himself ~ insulting me. The nutjob

Smiles banned him. To get around it he went down to the local library to log in on their public computer. FuckinPriceless.

 

[PurpleBin]

He was crackers. Wasn't there Curtis as well who was his mate?

I wonder if they post here now "all grown up"

 

[stay_up_skyblues]

It’s slowly coming back to me now. I think the then owners shut the offal down due to comments about them in posts.

McGinnity did threaten Neville with a libel case.

And Bob Bones (Murkage?) was obsessed with USS...

I had a couple of run ins with Citizens Arrest on GMK who I often wonder may in fact be our Grendel.

Good trip down memory lane!

Depends how you define 'active'. The SkyBlues Internet Mailing list is still alive on the listserv serve at Warwick Uni. skyblues Info Page.

Started in the late 1980s I think. The most recent posting was from the 27th December last year linking to the article the BBC did on kits (referencing ours). Used to be very well subscribed through the 90s and had it's own football team with a kit donated by the club. I'd it's say down to a handful of members now, so my comment was a bit tongue in cheek

Yes, I do rember that. I went online in about 97, and it was quite active back then.

Fuck me, sounds like the twitter clowns we have around now.
