Is this the best football club forum on the Internet?


According to my apostrophe guy:

"To show possession in the plural form, all you have to do is put an apostrophe after the s. For example: Girls — girls' (girl + s + apostrophe) Friend — friends' (friend + s + apostrophe)"
Yeah but they're individual clubs, it's not a bunch of clubs that have one forum, they each have one forum for the club.
 
The almost unique thing about this forum is that supporters of other clubs can come on and coexist in a way that other forums don't, so long as they aren't total dickheads. We even have a few tame mags.
That's the worst thing about the forum imo but maybe they find sanctuary here I guess looking at it positively. All closet Sunderland fans.
 
Serious question. All the links to other club's forums that are posted look like they're still in the 90s in terms of format etc. The mods on here aren't the best sometimes and ban for ridiculous reasons but overall I'd put RTG up against any other message board, football or otherwise.
1. It was wonderful at first and has expanded well too. E. G. Football separated from chat and other separations like politics.

I loved it at the start. An opportunity to discuss my club, its team and other fans. Plenty of light hearted and amusing conversations. That has changed with more angry and abusive thrusts.

The information on the board is invaluable.

Sadly I cancelled it twice as years rolled on because of things like disgusting language and abuse as well as cowardly attempts to chase members off the board.
Parsnip this attention seeking shite.

You've just described modern society. The lack of discussion and no one can have an opposing view, and one side has to be right rather than accepting that there can be two sides to every argument and not instantly dismissing the other. "water off a duck's" back has also, unfortunately, become a thing of the past online for the most part.
 
That's a good argument, I must admit.
It's a good argument if you don't mind being wrong. You were right first time Scotty. "Sites" is plural. If you you inverted the comment to avoid the apostrophe, you would write "the sites of other clubs." Only a maniac would say "the sites of other club."

BTW I don't normally engage in grammar pedantry, but I can't abide somebody being a grammar pedant when they are absolutely wrong (OP not you).

Fair point and a perfect illustration of how good the forum is and why you shouldn't try to correct grammar post 12pm, apologies. "Name another football forum with such intellectual debate as RTG", perhaps a more accurate title to the thread.
