It does allow me to post my favourite line, from a short lived City supporter, at the beginning of last season:-
'f*** me you lot will talk about anything except football'.

It’s been like this since the mid nineties and has always worked totally fine so why change? The only thing that I think would help is to get some of the Palace morons into a sub forum when they are being particularly special.

Stop being precious and just read what you want to read and if it’s not to you taste just take it with a pinch of salt

Can we have a referendum on this?
That will settle it.

The reason I introduced thread prefixes, was to enable people to have an "Albion only" view if that's what they wanted.
Just select Albion threads from the forum page.

It’s another no. This is what makes NSC so diverse. Don’t change what ain’t broke.

No.
Have you been on other football forums? They are very boring. Long threads on the merits or otherwise of their left back or something. A lot less threads, less posters, less interest.
North Stand Chat is so much more than just a football forum. If you split off the non football stuff you are taking the heart out of it.

Will we need an exit policy?
Depends on what it achieves, if it improves the user experience and if it changes the advertising model and helps sustain NSC:
- there are days where non-football posts out number football posts, for a user experience being able to go directly to the all football threads would be useful
- it could open up better advertising opportunities by having pure football threads pages
- the split, if it is a good idea, doesn't actually take anything away from NSC as the home page has all the threads
- it could simply be achieved by including a preferences option so users can either see both or have a split view (this can be easily done).
