Other Football Forum recomendations?

I'm looking for a bit of help please.

I've had the idea (pinched from Blurred) to post a questionnaire on opponents forum footy sites, the week before we play them to ask for their views of the forthcoming game.

Obviously I rather avoid the abuse from the more moronic sites and thus I ask for your recommendations. Obviously we are already sorted with the Liverpool site (and Hoolio's Sunderland site - if we draw them in the cup!).

I know the season is a while of yet, but I need to register on the sites and come up with a set of questions to ask them, so I don't want to be doing this at the last minute so to speak.

So all help would be greatly appreciated - Thanks

There are decent fans on most sites Sluffy. At least we don't attract the morons who bomarded 606. I'd target Charlton, Liverpool and Boro for starters, and it might be an idea to have a go at the new boys, Reading, Sheffield etc..

My idea is to get at least one site for every premiership club and to ask on each site a standard set of questions of what they think about them playing Bolton in the next match, which of their players should we watch out for, etc, and then if they are cool about it, go back and ask them for there view of the match after we had played them.

I know that a number of TW'ers visit other forums, so I thought if they would be kind enough to point me in the right direction it would make the job a bit easier.

Who knows it might lead a to a bit of linking with various sites to the benefit of all.

Arsenal

Arsenal Mania
Arsenal Land
Gunnershigh.com
ArsewebThe oldest of the Arsenal fansites, offers news and stats but no forums.
Arsenal News Review - This is a great site written by two Arsenal supporters. Myles Palmer is an astute observer of football, mainly Arsenal but also on other teams and players/ Ian Grant covers Arsenal in the news. No forum but well worth a visit for Palmer's thoughts.

Aston Villa

VillaTalk

Blackburn Rovers

BRCFS.co.uk
Rovers Active
Blues and Whites.com

Charlton Athletic

CAFC-Fans.co.uk
Charlton Blogspot

Chelsea

CFC-Net The leading independent Chelsea fan site with news, player interviews and lively discussion boards. Some of Rawks finest can occasionally be seen here. They've currently filled their quota of resident Liverpool supporters though so...
TalkChelsea

Everton

ToffeeWeb - Excellent site offering news and comment on all things Evertonian. There's a forum attached to the site but the People's Forum is a busier and funnier alternative.
The People's Forum - Long established Everton supporters forum. Some great banter and easily the pick of the Blue fora.
BlueKipper - Irreverent site with News, comments from Micky Blue Eyes and others and some naughty digs at their superior neighbours. Forgive them, they know not what they do.

Fulham

FulhamFC Messageboard
Fulham Rivals - There's Only One F in Fulham, Fulham section of the popular 'Rivals' Network.

Manchester City

BlueMoon MCFC

Manchester United

Red Issue - prepare to be called some nasty names

Middlesbrough

Boro Rivals
Come on Boro - Best of the Boro sites imo.
Borobarmy
Boro rules

Newcastle United

Toon
Newcastle Online - a very polished site with popular forums.
Toontastic - another good magpie site.

Portsmouth

Portsmouth Rivals

Reading

Royals.org aka as Hob knob anyone

Sheffield United

Redandwhitewizards
Unitedite

Tottenham Hotspur

Glory Glory.net
Spurs Community

Watford

The Golden Boys
Glory Horns

West Ham United

KUMB.com - Knees up Mother Brown, a good Hammers site.

Wigan Athletic

Ultimate Wigan
Ye Olde Tree and Crown (YOTAC) a friendly Wigan site.

Hey sluffster....instead of posting a plea from the whole membership why not just ask Blurred? I'm sure he's already done this kind of research......

oh....

A few of the better Liverpool ones for you:

Red all over the land (www.raotl.co.uk)
YNWA (www.ynwa.tv)
Red and White Kop (www.redandwhitekop.com)

RAWK would be the biggest in terms of members of the above (Just over 17,700) which means there are a fair collection of nob-heads, but also quite a few who know their stuff.

We've been lucky that Blurred and Hoolio are nice boys from other clubs, I hope that if we get any others from other sites that they are as good.

Indeed, Blurred, we remember them well.

Part of the problem with 'success', both in terms of the team and the forum. More successful team means an influx of Johnny come latelys and dickheads in general, and of course with that many people on a forum you're always going to get quite a few who don't get on with others. As people for the most part they're all sound, however there are some strange opinions on football around those parts!

Broadly speaking, they're a good bunch on RAWK - I enjoyed my brief sojourn on there until I found TW - but the last 9,000 members don't seem to have improved the site in my humble opinion.

Absolutely, I just put the stick that we took down to those with the least to say, saying it the loudest. It was just a shame that a bunch of stuff that was meant as obvious good natured banter got taken out of context by one or two. Hey, no harm done!

Can't wait to see the response you get from Villa Talk.

That lot make West Ham seem charming.

www.liverpoolway.co.uk are a good lot, but some of the stuff they say about Bolton might make your eyes bleed.
