Hello all
For those that remember, this site has been through several iterations since it was started 15+ years ago - and I still keep it going out of some weird refusal to know it could be great, but not doing anything with it. In fact it costs me a lot of money each year just to keep it going.
So we're going to have one final push at making t6he place rock again like days of old - embracing all of the new platforms and technologys like TikTok and AI! It will still feature the same traditional message board, but I want to ensure it is accessible on the move and easy to navigate, and attracts a new audience with relevant content.
So you will see some changes over the next few weeks as I finally get round to spending some time sorting it all out - and for those loyal posters, many of who have been here years, please be assured that the main heart of the message board will stay the same.
But there is an option now to let us know what you would like to see -w hat will make it more relevant, what features do you use on other sites that would be easier if available here - I am going to be including stats and profiles and a new section for any contributor to push a news story - this is a fan site so any budding journalist that want to post a patch report, players feature or thoughts about the club, we'll make it easy to do.
Hopefully as we move into 2025, the site will become busier and more relevant again.
In the meantime, thank you for your continued loyalty. I hope you had a good festive break and wish you all well for 2025.
And verification, whats that about?
Can we have an end to havng starter posts needing to being approved? That's ridicuous and really annnoying.
Thank you and all posters for this must read board. I must make more effort and turn reader into poster for 2025.
A very big thank you to all posters and to you in particular Richard! All your time and efforts are very much appreciated. Over time this site has become even more important to me.
It's really nice for me to have a kind of direct link and info to "our" club and some of the fans. Consider us,Leeds fans, as a special breed and there are certainly plenty of real characters on here.
Love all the banter, even if I miss out on some of the local chatter and/or inside jokes.
Thanks again for being able to be a part of this lot.
Happy New Year to all! Stay Healty on our way to the Premiership!

What the mouse said.
Thanks for your hard work mate
Really appreciate all your efforts to keep the site going, Richard.
Just one plea, can we please do away with the ridiculous data protection consent/legitimate interest mechanism and substitute with something which retains a record of your preferences for more than five minutes!
Good on you for keeping it going. It's a pity that so many have left over the years but I can sort of see why they have. People just get bored with things over time and try new things.
There is a lot of competition from other busier sites. I hope you do succeed but while ever you have the likes of TC10 spouting illegible tripe it will be a hard sell.
Happy new year to everybody.
Really hope you find a way to get the engagement levels back up. I rarely visit now but to be honest I just found the new format less intuitive than before. Good luck Rich!
Not residing in England, say Leeds, this site makes it as close-to-the-real-thing as possible. Thank you for keeping the place alive. Greetings to your brother Andy 🙏
Happy New Year!
Always grateful for keeping us on air - even if we have to deal with TC10..... 😃
Thanks for your help and time with the board Rich and much appreciated....
I know everyone on here will go along with any changes you make.... anything we do to try and stop Lord Windynipples posting is fine with me.
Happy New Year mate ....👍⚽
