Re: The Orginal Ulster Forum
Think it would be more accurate to say that fermain spotted a gap in the market when the old Ulster forum was pulled and offered a superior product.

IIRC the UAFC was initially, briefly an e-mail based group - YahooGroups I think, then migrated to this format.
Re: The Orginal Ulster Forum
I don't think I even remember a URSC forum.

Re: The Orginal Ulster Forum
Aren't they ...........sorry, my fellow members ...... more likely to be found on Bakebook having a good go at internecine wars, threatening shots to the bake - cheeky idea stealing bastids - and saying they are scared to go to matches for fear of being the third person punched at Ravenhill, off the pitch?BR wrote:I don't think I even remember a URSC forum.
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

Re: The Orginal Ulster Forum
I think UR shut down the forum on the official site in 2007, wasn't it? It had just degenerated into flegs'n'anthems flamewars and UR couldn't or didn't want to moderate effectively.
Re: The Orginal Ulster Forum
flegs'n'anthems, you say?
What was that about?

Was it on tv?
Never wrestle with a pig. You end up covered in muck and the pig loves it.
Re: The Orginal Ulster Forum
yes it was, (with a few founding members still on this site) but preceded by the Ulster forum as mentioned above (& the Irish forum). It was good too.stu wrote:IIRC the UAFC was initially, briefly an e-mail based group - YahooGroups I think, then migrated to this format.
Then the URSC forum, or 'Club Ulster'
then the UAFC!

Re: The Orginal Ulster Forum
The first I remember was Strange's forum. It was there that the meeting in the Walkabout was organized before the Wasps game at Loftus Road. I expected about a dozen people to turn up. Hundreds did!!!
A few of the folk from that forum still inhabit this place. All of us must be getting rather old now
Still see the infamous Munster-baiter, R McClean about. Age hasn't mellowed him much.
