brizzlelou Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Do we have any posters here that are prolific posters on other clubs fan forums? Seems we have some very unusual ones on OTIB. Don't see the point in it personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I find the contributions of several of the regular opposition visitors to this place are more sensible than a few of the City fans who use it tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lenred Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 I'm not registered on either so don't post at all but the only two I go on to have a quick look every once in a while is Cardiff City's CCMB (where someone called Jursey or something seems to post on our behalf and get a fair amount of stick!) or G*schat, where of course we're not allowed to post anyway! Be good to find one that spans the whole Championship if anyone knows of a decent one? Also, how do we donate to OTIB?

Went to see them a fair few times. I've never posted but by the best football forum I have found for balanced debate is www.redcafe.net This is the place for my city talk though... the Man U forum is actually very good The spurs one is funny, but the debate is limited.

I'd imagine after 20 games they have the low down themselves, now - misses lots of chances, very frustrating, likes a pan-European pout when he's pfaffed one wide, is offside a lot, sometimes does too much on his own, is still tactically a teenager, will bugger off when a bigger offer comes in and will probably score you 15-20 goals from 150-200 chances.

WessexPest Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I used to troll the old Gas forum occasionally before it shut down due to legal problems.

wendyredredrobin Posted February 14, 2017 Share Posted February 14, 2017 I quite like reading the posts from fans of other clubs on OTIB providing that they are sensible and civil. It' nice to get their perspective sometimes. I think I may have trolled one of the Gas forums a long time ago, but dont bother any more.

ashton_fan Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Is it just me or do others get really annoyed about so-called BCFC fans posting on our opponents forums? If they go on and praise us they end up getting abuse so most seem to grovel and say how much better their team is than ours. Look at this from "jamesBCFC" on Villatalk: Enjoy your win on Tuesday. Failing that you are guaranteed a point as we cannot defend a lead if our lives depended on it. Points thrown away against Wolves, Reading, Cardiff, Derby and Newcastle in the last 11 games and 4 wins in 5 months. Performances against Derby and Newcastle have been decent, but against Fulham was absolutely dire. Our win against Rotherham looked like 2 lower League 1 sides. Makes me cringe! Why do they do it?

I've been on the Villa forum since shortly before we played them, made a post (which then was moved to become it's own thread) where I gave some insight on us, the initial part "enjoy your 3 points" was light hearted. If you think a light hearted comment is grovelling you should get a bloody grip. But you're sort of representing the club's fans on there and some of us don't want to be represented in that defeatist way. Why don't you go back on there and point out that we've only lost 2 of our last 6 games whereas they've lost 5 so however bad we've been they've been worse?

I made a comment summing up how I've seen things recently, and will be on there to get their views after the game as I can't attend and I find opposition fans can provide a more balanced view than the knee-jerk ones on here. Seeing as I'm already on thin ice it's sensible to at least make one or two posts before the game with a little insight so I don't look like a gloating **** or someone who only came back after a win should we manage to get three points. As in a warning from a Villa keyboard warrior, or an actual official forum warning? If it's an official one then **** me, they are a little touchy, aren't they?
