ducky Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 i think it was better years ago when it was first born, there seemed to be more of a community spirit and some very good characters back then. it's a bit like football i suppose. was once great fun, now, still watchable but very watered down and a bit "meh".

Come on Eileen Posted June 4, 2015 Report Share Posted June 4, 2015 Haven't read all the responses, chiefly because I have a life, but my view is its great and made so by the quality of the posters. I am also a member and contributor on many other forums, including the two generally used by the few and the highlight of this forum is the humour of so many posts and posters.

richwwtk Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 It takes far too much of my time, but is the best source I have for any information pertaining to City. The most enjoyable part is non-footy, although that's not as entertaining since they started removing all the boggle-eyed anti-foreigner threads, which if nothing else encouraged some decent debate, despite the offensive and socially unacceptable views they often expressed.

havanatopia Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 Now listen here WTF.. you will, hopefully, appreciate that having spent many years of my life living in Havana I am as sick of that song as most people are having to wait the long summer before a new season starts or hoping for the incessant winter rain, cold and dark nights to end. Guantanamera is most certainly NOT underplayed in Cuba. Don't bring the idea up to Ashton Gate!! One team lyrics aside... lets keep it that way squire.

havanatopia Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 How many teams are there in Havana? Whats that got to do with anything.. its how many bars there are.. and there are now hundreds and you can hear it from every corner and then there are the hotels and even some old cronies still play it from their clapped out roof tops. back in the good ole' early 90's before the tourists really started flooding in it was a peaceful if drab city.. i liked it better though. Now of course its gonna be over-run again from the infidels to the north!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTFiGO!?! Posted June 5, 2015 Report Share Posted June 5, 2015 This is what I dislike about the fora; who made relevant questions relevant? Sounds good in Havana, no teams or three.
