    Welcome

    Welcome to the new WSC messageboard One Touch Football. We hope your stay here will be long and enjoyable. We have tried to emulate the old OTF board style as far as as possible and hope it will prove to be just as popular, if not more so, than the old board. No doubt there will be some glitches or improvements we can make. Please post any comments here and we'll do what we can. Note we have PM system but there's no PM notification at the moment – we hope to add this shortly.

    Registered users can also post comments on the WSC Daily feature and all articles in The Archive.

    It's awfully quiet around here...

      Perhaps less so now.

      The transition is going to be difficult, methinks.

          This new layout is going to take a lot of getting used to, to put it mildly.

            It really will take some getting used to. The extra colours and graphics around the side make it decidedly less work-friendly too.

            I can't believe ursus has 13 posts already.

              In the pre-live practice version there was a space to put in a "personal text", which I responded to by asking what it was. That option now seems to have gone, which appears to mean that I will be stuck for eternity with the question "What is personal text?" under my user name.

                Christ, what about all the epic 50 page threads, the Lalas, the Walesathon, Furtho's effort? It's a shame they couldn't be transplanted.

                It's also a shame the new board is ugly as sin. Ah well, content over style, eh?

                  The "beta" version appears to have disappeared, but with post counts remaining.

                  And if you think this one is cluttered and ugly . . .

                    Don't we have user numbers anymore?

                    If not, I suppose getting to name your favourite biscuit is more than adequate compensation.

                      Heh, I'd just spent an hour drafting a post on the old site, clicked Add Reply and saw the red text. I imagine it's floating about in space somewhere. You've all been spared.

                      The new board doesn't like the apostrophe in my user name, but that's okay as there is no apostrophe on the graffiti it's taken from anyway. It's clever how the computer knows that.

                        But you can still post to the old site , BDG.

                        Ah, there's the Quick Reply box.

                              Click on "My Profile" up top, and then edit it from there.

                                I too fear change.

                                How much warning are we going to get when the old board is phased out?

                                  As far as I can tell this design is a whole lot less user-friendly. Maybe it is just a question of getting used to it.

                                    So you can. I'm pleased that my first post on the new forum was incorrect. Start as you mean to go on and all that.

                                    Doesn't explain where my post went though. Not that it really matters, it was pretty dull anyway.

                                    Not as dull as this though, obviously.

                                        Things what I like about the new board:

                                        Changing the board options at the bottom automatically take you to the chosen board, without that annoying extra click.

                                        The Quick Reply button at the bottom of posts

                                        The Quote button at the bottom of posts

                                        Er...

                                        Things what I don't like about the new board:

                                        All the graphics and whatnot around the edges that mean I won't be able to use it when my manager doesn't have a day off.

                                        The horrible, ugly font.

                                        The horrible, ugly way that the board renders quotes when using the lovely quote button at the bottom of posts.

                                        Er...

                                          There doesn't seem to be a "delete post" option in the edit screen.

                                            The "flat mode" option has stopped working for me. It's very irritating.

                                                It's nothing compared to the irritation of suffering the endless, unfair persecutions relentlessly handed out to Leeds United and it's loyal supporters.

                                                Feels like home already...

                                                  However, the list doesn't allow you to go to the current forum.
