I have both pages (the forum and the YBIG) as favourites and check both regularly. However this is the one I mainly go to.

As I suspected (serious detective work there) there is nothing to attract regular users to the home home page, so to rectify said problem any suggestions???? Now please understand myself, Ger and Dave are f**king busy enough with our own jobs so any suggestions have to be relevant to the amount of time we can commit to. ------------- Romario 2016: And the ticket mafia gets caught!

How about instead of heaving two SUSCRIBE tabs on the site you could use one as a direct link to the forum with the latest posings shown. You could also add a link which would either divide the screen in two (left Forum, right YBIG) or a smaller box which you can use the forum in and still have access to the site. Similarly, you could do the same for this forum with a link to WHAT ON THE YBIG SITE NOW. That and the nude woman of the day would be great!

lads what about we put some opinion pieces up on the homepage , it will be weeks before the next YBIG and i bet donal , FW , myself and a few more could knock up a few articles on Irish football solely for the homepage which might attract a few readers. theres load of topics to write about and if people know that there will be a piece or two every week then they willl check more often

Interesting, Roger. But we need a link on the forum page which will highlight a feature on the actual site. Maybe a Half and half page which will show both. Don't mind doing a piece or two for the site but I am running out of Colleen is a slapper poems....

there is a celtic site called etims.net and they do regular opinion pieces from about 20 regular contributers , they get a lot of hits , have a look on it and you can see the kind of stuff would be easy to produce from a republic of ireland aspect , reminisces of great games , sl*gging the manager , praising certain players , financial stuff etc etc ------------- The first time the Devil made me do it.

Don't really know what you would like RM but I can do a piece on Irish soccer history or a stats piece or maybe a piece on the current side. Don't really know. Am beginning to feel like Stephen Ireland and need a bit of direction in my life. I've got the razor in my hand as I write  ------------- There are friendlier places to drink. |

I found a piece on my laptop which i had half-written a year or two ago that was supposed to be a rant for a YBOG issue but actually turned into more of a trip down memory lane. I'll finish it off by the end of the week and post up here.

Holy tschittt! Completely forgot about it and my publisher is due over today to see what the hell I have been up to. Sent you a piece on Ireland's managers some time ago, Count, will that do until I get out of trouble with my Southend-supporting friend? Could also send you the complete list of debut scorers which I have to hand.
