Just seen there are 4 people on it. 4!!
The record is over 1100 but numbers are massively dropping.
Is it a natural slow down? Is it a Footymad exodus? Is neglect resulting in these numbers?
I hope the numbers pick up as it will have a knock on effect elsewhere.
It's a Footymad moment, isn't it?
Mass desertion of the forum when, in theory, it should be busy.
I assume that many posters started to feel the forum is being used as a conduit to get people onto the social media channels....fully subscribed. The fine line between business and 'football friends' has probably been crossed.
I have always been a big advocate of this sites social media but, I have to be truthful. I watched half a video the other day and switched off. Numerous Patreon adverts. Adverts to buy products from the sites shop!! Is that the action of 'just doing it for a bunch of friends'. I certainly don't try and sell my friends products when they visit me at home. The presenters did not look authentic and came across as two people acting, which is sad as the initial appeal was the feel that it wasn't contrived. I then watched West Ham Fan TV that, although less polished, was a far better watch as it felt like a fans for fans podcast.
I hoped this sites CEO and COO had learnt from Footymad, and the fact their demise was down to them blatantly trying to earn money from posters. I guess some lessons end up getting learned the hard way.

Maybe we're just not online same time as you.
Maybe we don't care who else is online at the same time as us so we don't look like you do.
Maybe we switch off if we see certain people online.
Maybe we have the button pressed so it doesn't show we're online when we actually are.

Indeed. And speaking as someone who will soon be reliant on the state pension to supplement my shrinking, as a result of the bloody lockdown, investment income, may I respectfully suggest you get your nose back to the fucking grindstone and stop wasting valuable time poncing around on the forum.
Bloody slackers.
