I lost the will to live while I was scrolling down Chopah's posts with the club badges in them.....
Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Scores are pretty slow on AFF and Ruane's site today. Are they still on holiday?
Three for me, and two for them.

Its funny Chopah because I heard a few guys go "what the hell does that guy do" but now he is gone.....
Definitely missed at AFF. I wonder if NZF will go well for him. He has talent, but that needs support. There have been some good guys before him in that role that have had talent and been spat out too.

I'm actually still sorting things out following a recent house move, Buffon, so updates will take place as and when I can.
It would certainly aid the cause if a few more clubs embraced facilities such as Twitter and Facebook to convey results and scoring details on a timely basis, i.e. during the match. Top marks to Melville, Papakura and Fencibles for their opening day efforts in this regard.
Cheers,
JR

There isn't any hate for them either though Doloras. They are pretty much a nothing club.

Chopah, why are Ellerslie hashtagging LSU in all their tweets? Do you have a connection to the Tigers?

He's being doing a hell of a job thus far, some real innovative stuff, at least comparatively.

#LiveScoreUpdates - We use the LSU tag because there is a nifty little program I use (can't remember the name) that looks for that particular hashtag and posts it on our live score updates facebook page for those peeps without twitter.

Ah right fair enough, sounds like a good idea!
As a bonus you may garner a few extra fans from Louisiana because of it!

one of the guys today said I should randomly pick a celeb and tag them in to each post for a weekend and see if we get any re-tweeets (or please fuck off's) - would be amusing.
Any suggestions for next weeks game as to what Celeb I should pick on?
