Deary Me....what has become of a once half decent message board....thank feck for a bit of sense on here....
Hopefully a bit of direction from those at the top of the Club this week to map where we are going not just this season but the next few .....I'm sure Thompson is now aware of the total fuck up he made end of January but we need a strong leader to deal with the situation , make a statement and we move on.....silence will only breed and fuel more pish stories .

Agree. What people are failing to realise is that all of this gets back to the Club eventually and this is inflicting separate potential long term damage on the Club. All is obviously not rosy in the garden, but there's a way to do things and soiled boxers on a very public washing line is not an appropriate place.

Really bad atmosphere surrounding the Club at the moment which needs addressed in a show of unity from those in charge.....hiding away will only give a perception of weakness...this could all be knocked on the head with some positive , direct communication....no more spin please.

Mad beh name, mad beh nature.
Some real fuckin zoomers on there like.
You're right tho Blawser, a bit of dialogue from The Deech would be appreciated and would go along way to repairing some of the animosity.

Sad to see but the lunatics have certainly taken over the asylum, however I'm no sure whether half of them are arab zoomers or imposters. Doesn't help that nurse Ratched is a supermod.
At least there's still cameo appearances from Tommy Dunne.

The offending thread has been taken down I notice. Without getting into what it said, the jist of it was at best libellous, and at worst ridiculously upsetting for family of people at the club, without evidence. I didn't post on it very often but jacked it when newer posters went on and started shite on every single post last year in particular.

Tbh some people are unwilling to see the real problems.
Some piss poor stuff posted on the thread and one from a mod on there towards other fans was a fucking disgrace.
glsd this board isnt like utdmad that has been ruined for a while imo.
Hopefully things are made alot clearer in the coming days

Too many people on there just to get their egos massaged, think they are superfans and nobody should question their infinite wisdom.
Total car crash board these days

Had a look on there earlier today, wow.
No matter ur opinion on Thompson, Jackie or the players there's no need for the absolute drivel getting spouted on there.
Its time everyone moved on and started pulling in the same direction, if a club statement would help that then get it done. At the end of the day we all want success for DUFC and all the BS and aggro doesn't help at all.

I try not to comment on Utd Mad these days as it could be perceived by some as me willingly trying to put the boot into the place,when i have no intention of doing so.Truth is my only focus is Tek Towers and i much prefer the camaraderie on here and between the Twitter Utd fans and as such i hardly ever look in on the place anymore.Which is kinda sad as i was once fairly addicticted to the place (as you'll see by my 12,000 posts in the place).
I think one of the problems is the place just got too big.It has over 7,000 registered users which is an incredible amount.But unfortunately that will always allow a higher ratio of bampots to slip through the net.On here there are only,say,50 regular contributors so it feels like every poster is valued more and i'm genuinely happy when i see every single regular logged in.
I also feel there is a wee bit of discord between one or two of the Mods from what i can see.Now whilst me and Stobes don't see eye to eye on absolutely everything,we do fundamentally agree that on here there has to be a careful balance struck between free speech,as it is,afterall,an UNOFFICIAL site and slanderous,libelous and provocative posts being made.
Thankfully we haven't had any posted in 10 months which i'm very glad of.
There's lot's of great guys on Mad and it's a shame that about half a dozen (and that's all it is tbh) posters are causing disharmony in the place.
I think the Footymad network in general is on the wane and has been for awhile.Too much emphasis on advertising and raking in coin,than customer acessibility these days.
Anytime i've went on it on my phone in recent times it's been almost impossible to navigate for pop-up ad's.

Never posted on Mad, read it for a while and it's just insane ramblings from guys who think they're the only die hard fans. Then there's pie and bovril, a site filled with trolls and arrogant arseholes who have no intention of doing anything but being arseholes. My mate posts on there a lot and knows a few posters from there, says it's mostly spotty kids copying a few personalitys and repeating 5 year old 4chan jokes but apparently there a few arab posters worth reading.
Here's seems ok, a few people went OTT about the Celtic two, but at least most seemed to have moved on.It's good to make a chilled out post that isn't going to get 3rd degree for something like a typo. Haven't been on any other forums this one seems to have an ok balance. Lock the doors TEK.

Might no be a bad idea from 1/1 TEK. Or if you don't want to be too draconian, vet new members for a trial period.

Find these two hard going. Mad has a large amount of folk registered so i try not to steriotype the board as a few numpties posting alot can be irritating. Some good lads on there though. Ive noticed a lot of good fans dropping off and hardly ever posting now.
Tartan army forum is well humoured although I don't look in much unless travelling away.

What is wrong with EastFootball? MAD is quite clearly the worst forum. Without a doubt. Which is a shame, but the truth.
I like Pie and Bovril, but I post a lot off topic there. The forum is absolutely massive.
