Aw yes. Works on phone.
Colour could do with being a bit redder.

I did some minor research into pay sites and it isn't really a goer at all. It would mean people paying substantially higher sums than I would be comfortable asking for.
The aim is to build this site back up to the traffic count of the old site again. I hope that works for everyone - it was always the objective to have a big Boro site again with content and very busy with posts and posters etc. This will be fmttm.com as soon as possible.
What about a yearly subscription fee, don't know if this has been mentioned on this thread, I mentioned on here a few times it's been a big help to me over the past 3 months, probably others too, good site,surely the quicker you get the old board migrated over the better, is there not a way you can point the link on the fansonline forum to this one?
I'm sorry Rob's income is made up of advertising revenue from the message boards because he'll never get a penny from my viewing whilst adblockers exist.
I'm differentiating between a fixed banner type ad which is perfectly acceptable and the kind of pop up ads that follow you around and make sites like the Gazette unreadable. It's a strange old world where someone can set up a message board and generate an income purely by bombarding you with ads.
I choose if I want to see adverts or not and won't have them forced on me. If it was a choice between no board or a board with adverts then the former would win.
That said I'd happily pay a subscription fee to use an ad free board. I'd be interested to know what figures rob came up with when he investigated the option of subscription.
