Disappointed there hasn't been a reply from Sammy!Just seen this at the bottom if the link on page 2
Yup, that's him Martin.
That doesn't surprise me actually thinking about it
I don't know if it was GMK or rivals but remember there was a poster called villa_r_sh1te or something similar. In the summer when Boothroyd took over he casually queried whether anyone knew anything about Clive Platt as he had his photo taken with the squad that day. He got dogs abuse as it was a signing a load of Colchester fans said Boothroyd would make as he was such a long ball merchant... Until Platt was announced later that day. Shortly afterwards he leaked the team for the opening game and said Nathan Cameron and Ben Turner were starting at centre back when Boothroyd had played Wood and McPake in every preseason game. Again he dogs abuse... Until the teams were announced. Would love to have known who it was but was clearly someone close to the club.
These posts are bringing up so many forgotten usernames and posts. The whole site was chaos. I was more of a lurker in those days but got me through hours of college seeing the shit being posted.
MainStandNoel said that anybody that wears jeans is a tramp was a favourite.
I guess part of the appeal was a lot of it being pre Sisu days, or at least pre Northampton, so we didn't have to have a working knowledge of the legal system and links to everything we bought up, you could just call someone's daughter an ugly slag and be done with it.
I thought JapAndy was here as @singers_pore but must be different.
That Hull fan was a fucking menace, we took 299 there one Tuesday night and every week for about two years he'd be on having a go about our attendance that week, response was always to fuck off back to his own board but nobody was on it. There was a certain bit of pride about it being one of the busiest on Rivals too when every club had one. That Leicester thread really bit us on the arse.
Transfer deadline days were top notch, I swear someone made something up and it got on SSN once.
That was himIt's also in my head that you had a melt down when you had the piss taken out of you about some scarf you wore to a match?
JapAndy was another one who befriended me.JapAndy appeared on here a year or 2 ago, then disappeared again.
He used to have rants at John gaunt on a Saturday(?) morning. Thing is, Gaunt would play with him on the radio, but all we'd see was westterrace2's responses, hammered out by the monkey on his typewriter.#notsingle what a dope that bloke is

Pages of gibberish.
But strangely appealing!
Certainly is!That can't be the same bloke surely

So you were Rob87? Of course you were, the similarities are obvious. No grey areas for you, with everything black or white. You reacted defensively to any criticism of the club the same way you have in the matchday links this season. That's an observation by the way, not a criticism!
Wasn't it you who got in an argument with some meat head from Canley who offered you for a meet in the Wheatsheaf to sort things out man to man. You rather foolishly agreed, thinking it was just bravado, but the guy turned up, and called you out on the matter for ages afterwards whenever you posted (which was frequently). It's also in my head that you had a melt down when you had the piss taken out of you about some scarf you wore to a match? Apologies if I've got this wrong.
I never got the love in for GMK. I found it purile to be honest.
I thought it was a Coventry City forum but it evolved to a group of like minded juveniles.
Eleventy billion, which still raises it head on here, went from mildly amusing with a telescope to cringe very quickly and Bob bones and the like....do me a favour.
Lamented? Not by me. This site is better in every way IMO.
Thank you for the correction*puerile
Thank you for the correction
Thing is, there was plenty of space for the football and off-field stuff if you wanted it, just you might find you were MURKED in the next thread!It was unapologetically puerile...that was half the attraction for me and all the others clearly beneath you m8
I can't help this site only attracts the higher class clientele. Deal with it.It was unapologetically puerile...that was half the attraction for me and all the others clearly beneath you m8

I am pleased to have given you so much with so little. Beneath me? No, just didn’t find it funny on the whole.Sounds like you can afford to buy the fuckers a dictionary then ..yeah?
I do have a log in for SB Talk but haven't used it for years I posted probably around 5 times in all, (having now checked it isn’t active and doesn’t work). The transition from GMK to SBT is something I don’t really want to comment in depth on.
Not happy how Knowl let it die.What does that mean?
