I'm going to stand up for the Port poster on here... Stop being so bloody precious! 

I don't see them coming on here as trolling - especially if we set up a page specifically to let it run wild. So long as they are not on every page spewing crap who cares.

Why have a page on here dedicated to the other team, if you don't want to engage with them when they come on - stay on the other pages.

A healthy rivalry can only help grow the game of football in NZ... something I would of thought we could all get in behind!
Not really sure why anyone on the YF forums needs to stand up for a Port poster.
This is the YF forums where there are threads for all the other teams in the competition for YF members to discuss the other teams. Im not aware those threads were created so fans of the other teams can jump in to create banter. 
As others have said it will come why try and force it. For me thats whats great about YF it isnt forced its not overly organized and things just happen mostly unscripted.
The mere fact its Wellington v Auckland is enough to create banter for many of us. YF has nothing to prove our record speaks for itself its the new boys that need to prove themselves and with something more than just abusing YF and The Phoenix
Just two things here. First of all - ‘mostly unscripted’?? What part of the forum IS scripted??
Secondly - the YF kind of do have something to prove and I’m legitimately hoping it happens…the YF have been boring for years. Small turnout to games every week (unless the nix are in a playoff match. Only sing when you’re winning mentality etc), hardly heard from the stands, average selection of chants. The port is ready to go and we’ll be there every week belting our lungs out. Would be great if the YF would raise their game, it’d be a great advertisement for the game here in NZ

Yep, you’re interesting. You’ve told us yourself 5 times. 

Some people would say show, don’t tell, but you do you.
