Request for a current affairs forum

[The Esk]

I appreciate that this is first and foremost an Everton related football forum, however I'm sure there's enough interest in having a current affairs forum under the GOT umbrella.

Save getting the Ale House clogged up with endless political arguments subsequently deleted - a dedicated forum, I'll even offer to moderate it

Mods, owners, debt-holders etc what's the view?

Interesting responses from all concerned - I'm a little disappointed to be honest, but as there's no great enthusiasm or willingness to trial an area for mature discussion of current affairs I've more than enough to do elsewhere to push it.

Let's file it in "no further action required"

You know I like a good debate as much as the next man. Could the forum supporters forum be the place to try it out? That tends to be a bit more lassez faire.

I've mentioned this before, but someone could start one of them cheap looking free forum sites which could basically function as exactly what you want. And only those who want to join will join.

Oh no, keep it out of there. It's the one place where people can relax.....

We dealt with that while you were 'away'. Everyone thought it was a great idea then Brennan joined in the debate and it was decided to invade Poland instead......

On a slightly related topic a bird handler came into the hospital last week and I got to hold some owls.

Rookie mistake. If he'd ever played RISK he'd know you can never hold Europe.

You said bagsy. You've changed

I like it when things get a bit heated on here. Interesting I think.

Saying bagsy is a bit tittish. Bruce Wayne is hereby stripped of his title and exiled to the barren lands forever.
