squidger Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Feckin 8 years ago i joined this board, a lot of advancements in technology in that time and other ways to put your views on football forward. But amazingly, pie and and bovril still gets the young uns joining and chatting about anything from the latest OF failings to the age old question of brown sauce or red sauce with lorne sausage baps (even though they give us cancer now too) Main reason i joined was for a more balanced view of games after watching them, found our own site very tinted specs. Plus Gn was a general source of amusement and news that no other site was even close to getting quite as fast or giving such a generalised view of balanced opinion. Also went on golf day and met some good peeps like Div, Seamus, No8, Knightswood to name a few. is there still a need for message boards like this in 2015? or has it just become such a slagging match ... meh over to P+B 2015 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshmallo Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Used to lurk and Graeme Barrett was getting a power of stick. I signed up to defend him. True story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miguel Sanchez Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 I think I found a funny thread on the internet and enjoyed reading it. After getting bored I didn't post for several years and then began again last year during the World Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFTD Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Because I have no friends. ^^^ this. Don't even remember how I found P&B, but I slithered around for a couple of years enjoying everybody's good works, before signing up in case I ever felt the need to contribute (or possibly just because you needed to have an account to access the Night Shift; can't remember). Then Miley joined and I've been spamming the site relentlessly since. Possibly need banning for my own good, TBH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeboy Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Genuinely no idea. I was never a member of any other forum and I haven't a clue how I even heard of the place. Spend too much time on here as my post count says (tbf a LOT of my early posts were just smilies at the St Mirren and Clyde (?) trolls Capt.

WILLIEA Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Some other forum ( can't remember what it was ) went tits up. Someone on QOS Mad mentioned this one so had a look and joined. It's good having fans of all clubs exchanging views in on one place. IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Stewart Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Dundeebarry's Leigh Griffiths blog got me to join. Found it through the Facebook page it had that a few of my mates liked, and realised through that that it'd come from here. Signed up when I realised it was ostensibly a football forum but with numerous other sections. Only forum I've ever been part of, still entertains me greatly more often than not.

squidger Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 I stumbled across "Scottish football online" one night and thought it was quite amusing so joined up. Then it died. Fukkin hell Stan? was the internet even invented when you signed up? certainly dont remember you being such a WUM until recently but then with the likes of the professionals that have either been banned or found a life, i imagine your dough humour went unnoticed.

squidger Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 Id watched as much depraved pornography on the internet as a human can possibly manage one night so googled something about Celtic and stumbled upon a link to this well spending 24 hrs waiting for limewire to d/l a 1.5min clip + a massive virus that wiped out your motherboard was not realy the same thing back then Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hillonearth Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Started off posting almost exclusively in the Junior forum - I'm involved with a club at that level, and probably my first couple of dozen posts would be have been along the lines of "Maryhill v whoever - game off". As most will be aware it can be an insular wee world over there, but every now and then a couple of the second-prizers from elsewhere would come over there for an attempted noise-up, and I started exploring the other forums to see what the fuss was about. Like anywhere online there's elements of this place I can't be arsed with, but enough of the punters on here seem to be reasonably sound to make it worthwhile coming back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
