    Hi,

    Thank you to everyone who applied for this. Please don't take it as a slight if you weren't successful. Most applicants would have made very good mods.

    We tried to pick the most evenhanded posters and even still, it was really hard to decide. In the end the two new mods were endorsed by all the current mods and the site Admins as new soccer forum mods.

    So please welcome therecklessone and LuckyLloyd as new Soccer Forum moderators.

    Ah yet another Pool mod surprise surprise. I recall this one making some pretty outlandish Villa baiting statements in the great GB thread of summer 08.

    Here's hoping his modding skills are better then his predictions:cool:.

    No 'dude' i'm just reminding your replacement er co mod that posts like what i highlighted in the GB thread will result in pages long feedback threads if similar posts occur now he's a mod. You of all peeps should know how fickle us Soccer forum types can be:).

    If you start a feedback thread on things like that then I am sure you will get lots of cat pictures and square bicycle wheels to accompany your complaint.

    While we've all had trouble guessing who Lloyd would try and ban first it's now become obvious who Therecklessones first banning will be.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,399 ✭✭✭✭Thanx 4 The Fish


    It was never in any doubt.

    :D

    Was in work today, on a break myself and a mate were playing Pro Evo in our rest room. We've a tournament going with a few of the lads, and the fixed draw saw me given Rangers when others were playing with the likes of Inter and ManYoo. Never one to shirk a challenge, I'm losing 3-1 to Roma when two of our new recruits walk in, take a look at the screen and one of them says "Rangers, why the fcuk are you playing with Rangers?". I reply "I hope I get to train you".

    Cue furious back peddling...:D:D:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,010 ✭✭✭besty


    Congrats on the appointment lads. Best of luck to both of you. Something tells me you'll need it.
