...and I promise to whinge less.

Hello. I'm James/Jimbo, whatever.

I've been planning on joining The Wanderer when the season ends for a bit when I left my former hunting grounds; 606 (closing down) and Burnden Aces (gone shit).

I've decided to come over a bit earlier and see what it's all about, I already recognize a few familiar names off other forums and twitter (you can follow me at...www.twitter/jderbyshirebwfc -shameless plug!) so hopefully I'll slot right in!

Welcome, Jimbo (I won't suggest you spunk your load because the idiom escapes me....)

Oh well. :crazy: He's had it in for me since I dared challenge him over your banning and made him look like a petty dick in the main forum by pointing out you were banned for nowt.

Not sure why he's suggesting I wasn't open with my feelings, I don't have to answer to him and tell him my future plans. I told Manny a good while a go I'd probably leave- not to mention I posted the fact I thought Burnden Aces was goign down the shitter on twitter and I was planning on joining The Wanderer when the season finished...

Pretty much all the good posters left/were banned. Only people left worth having a debate with were Azreal, Le God, Dave, DH and Jamster.

Think Manny did a cracking job setting the site up and building a solid base to were it was at the very least a clear number 3 behind TW and WW but for his own reasons he cannot commit the same amount of time to it anymore and I think it's gone downhill. Less than 10 properly active posters. All the best topics were none-football related debates.

75% of the topics Bolton Wanderers are pointless voting threads that cluttered the site; who is the best number 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8, etc. (surely a pointless exercise obviously Nicky Hunt for every position!) who is the best manager, who is the best player etc. pretty much decided then my time there would be short-lived.

Whatever history you and Britlass had with another site is of little interest here I'm afraid - even the bish fell asleep during his own sermon.

That's why I kept it off the main forum and only on this thread. No interest in going over old ground from BA other than a catch up with Britlass.

'I told him of my plans to leave in the summer'

I fear you may be too big for us, or maybe just gulity of taking yourself way too seriously

Ok, fair play CAPS, that came out as a little bit up my own arse. Although I didn't quite mean it as worded it.

I should qualify all the 'best signing since Petrov' etc. comments were all sarcasm too, as I suspect it may be coming across that I expect The Wanderer forum members to bow down to my feet or something. Far from it, I'm just here to post about BWFC and whatever else.
