[QUOTE=TopCornerFergie;2359256]There was Philly, that I was a part of for a time. It was pretty good to be fair. I was expecting to join and see threads of CCTV footage of Colin Poole, and photocopies of Steph Booth's supermarket receipts; but actually it was just a smaller group of fans discussing club issues. A less 'noisy' forum to put your ideas across.

There was also more concerted efforts to organise meetings, and put together more constructive opposition to issues within the Club.

The admins did thrive on the fact that it was "secret", so there were a few wind-ups about what went on, spearheaded by CarlDouglas amongst others which were funny.[/QUOTE]

Ah Carl Douglas. Does he still think he's funny? Has he found his dummy yet?

[QUOTE=Huffy;2359014]Well there you go ! An honest and accurate summmary of what the other group is IMO!
A forum that you need to pay to join (I think its 2 or 3 quid or something derisory ,puts most off as they like it for nothing !) So if you cant pay the joining fee for a forum that has been a problem logging into most of the time for everyone ,esp if you are on a phone- then yes its secret !:)

But lets not have any nonsense about it being a den of activists ,a subversive place inhabited by WST zealots because it really is not !!!
Its more of a home from home from some of the madness and stuff elsewhere , be that here or Facie Fanschat , which I am usually better off not reading[/QUOTE]

That's not the forum Bagger is referring to.

Not sure if this is the old one which was abandoned and claimed was hacked but I don't think you could claim that was wind ups so likely another.

The original hidden one:

Discussing one fans sexuality
A head of a fans group mental wellbeing subject of one thread
Posts such as "QuayRed is a w@nker"
Items that should have been covered under the NDA with M&R being openly discussed.

I think that one was older than the one you are on about which a few people over the years have said was much better. I think the hidden element may have been a parody of the toxic one rather than anything sinister.

Noted the piece about revising the constitution and that the WSt had appointed a group to review it. Board members names plus two 'Lay' members. Can anyone throw light on who the lay members are?

Also note that ordinary members can have an input to any changes.
