Yes welcome, a few words of advice:

If one week you say you think the current manager is useless because he has " no passion" doesn't wave his arms in the air and get hysterical enough for your liking , (whilst drinking coffee ).  When he gets sacked make sure you point out the next manager is no good because he gets too vocally involved on the sidelines and is far too passionate to be able to manage such a club as Boston United . Then the following week totally swap your view as if you are a Devil's Advocate

Some current items for debate: Why does Mr Weaver (Senior) at Harrogate spend loads of cash on players for his son's team   and none on the big green thing called the pitch? (Never before has a BUFC postponement been so certain as this weekend !  )Did Gainsborough really get duped by Lincoln and pay a player 3 times his normal wages ? New Topic for suggestion :Benefits of Conditioning coach v Fitness Coach , discuss ?

I appear to be a Newbie, but have been here at least 10 years.  And supporting for at least 50!

That's nice Tony. Thanks for both the ten years you've been here and most importantly the amazing 50 years as a supporter.  :) nearly 50 posts since 2010 doesn't equal Newbie in my book though.

You'll have a great insight into the whole fan scene I'm guessing. If you tweet, I'll follow you.  :dan

Being a 'Newbie', does 'Veteran Member' refer to age or number of posts?  ;)

It refers to the number of posts made, although one or two of the Veteran Members act like big kids sometimes.   ;)   No, not you MLF.

One can be a "Newbie" but also be a "Veteran" - viz-a-viz having taken umbrage to something posted on here, cancelling your original account and registering under a different name ;)

How about making it that the posts are to be relevant to the original post, some of the posters seem to just want to see their name on screen, because a big majority of the posts are so off subject!!!!!! WUM, OHHHHH, no names no pack drill.

Beauty (or quality in this case) is in the eye of the beholder, Cavalier......as well as another post closer to 'Veteran Member' status for me!! ;0))
