    Fine...but if you're lucky enough to be retired you spend all day moving from one site to the other desperate for something concrete!

    Quite right, I'd forgotten that tbh.

    As things stand absolutely nothing negative has come from the Americans.

    The gossip I was told, from an impeccable source, was that the takeover is being discussed like the weather over there.

    Careful mate, searching dodgy words can land you on a register ...

    ... speaking on behalf of a friend.

    Can I firstly apologise for posting this on an unrelated thread.

    It is not an attempt to derail this thread but (I feel) where I originally posted it won't get the number of views to potentially help solve the problem (whereas this thread is busy - for obvious reasons) so, hopefully, nobody will take offence.

    https://www.not606.com/threads/i-t-help-needed.377836/

    Many on here will be familiar with Salut! Sunderland and it appears they are having a problem with a hacker at the moment.

    https://salutsunderland.com/2019/09...ox-from-an-ultimately-shaky-win-over-mk-dons/

    "Readers will know we have been experiencing technical problems caused by a malicious redirection of certain of our pages to a scummy Turkish escort site. Salut! Sunderland is now more secure (at a hefty price) but neither that, nor as much self-help and professional cleansing as we have been able to do without further expenditure, has rid us of this Turkish blight.


    When a page redirects to Istanbul – as happened with Sixer’s Sevens after the MK Dons match and this full report by our deputy editor Malcolm Dawson – we are excluded from the invaluable headline-grabbing newsnow.co.uk site and the number of readers plummets alarmingly.


    Reposting, while irrtating for readers who have already seen the relevant item, has been known to help. So we are today republishing Malcolm’s outstanding analysis in the hope it may avoid the vulture-like attentions of our friends from the east and attract the audience it deserves.

    A full professional clean-up to eliminate (maybe!) the bug would be too expensive so if anyone knows a SAFC-supporting IT wizard who would be happy to do it for a pittance, please say so …"


    Anyone who can help please contact M. Salut (Colin Randall) at [email protected]

    For anyone who hasn't visited the site, you should pop over and see what you think - its well written articles are a joy to read and no competition to not606.

    Seems to be a lot of “na na na na na” “my Dad’s bigger than your Dad” on this thread now, can’t someone just post some more juicy rumours rather than declaring how good or bad anyone is or was?

    Isn't that exactly what you've just done.

    If people don't like the content post summat original, interesting or witty is my view ...
    ... it's a chat forum, not a reading room.

    I don’t think that’s what I have done at all, I generally read rather than post, and as you May have noticed I didn’t point fingers or name names, I left school a long time ago but some of the chest puffing on here is a bit silly.
    You’re also pretty quick with your “if you don’t like it..........” digs, sorry if my candid views don’t align with yours.

    Sorry if that came across badly mate, I didn't mean any offence.

    I'd say most people are going along with the flow but it's a transitional period tbh.
