Good Morning
Firstly, thank you Jack. Your forum has brought so much fun and pleasure to add to the ups and downs of being a County fan. Occasionally I have disagreed with the way you’ve done things, but that’s how life goes!
I have made so many “online friends “ who I will never meet in person, but that’s not the point, it’s about being part of a community, accepting different viewpoints ( without crossing the line into abuse/ bullying)
I have also met folk from contact on here, some I liked.. and some I didn’t!
Memories a plenty, none more so than the great fun we had with the “ Programme World Tour” A brief explanation for those not aware. I bought a programme from the first home game, and sent it to someone from the forum elsewhere in the world, they signed it and forwarded it back to someone else and so on. I was amazed how it went back and forth around the globe without getting lost. It even got a mention in the actual match day programme some months later. Someone must still have the programme, unfortunately I lost track of its final movements.
For me the Grandstand was the best fun, a few years ago though. A bit of a fantasy world, with biscuits, cushions, Tim’s countdown and the broom for late arrivals.
Hopefully “all things County “ will bravely fill the void and remain a nicer place than that which this forum has sadly become.
Thanks again Jack, and thanks to all the contributors who have made this an interesting and informative place to visit.
