Inspectormorose. Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 (edited) 17 hours ago, Frankly Mr Shankly said: There was a last to post on this thread wins thread which was brilliant. Was on there as this username I think. I was one of the regulars on Big Thread along with Derek Wilson, Jimi T, Maddog, Stipe Tripe, Leeslover, GillianFN and Stevie J and I think Ackey popped up now and again. Apologies if I missed any other regulars. The eventual unwritten rule was you posted about anything other than football. Got to something stupid like 6000+ pages. Stipe did curate it after it ended and had it in his e mails somewhere split into chunks. I tend to read rather than post nowadays.

Lee Sinnott Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 We lost a regular JK Latics contributor a few months ago, BLUMAX. Still in regular contact with the likes of LatikNik, Wilson etc. Some lapsed fans but all Latics at heart... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike_Stott Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 (edited) Some great memories of working with Jack on JKLatics Met some fantastic people through the site. Too many to name, but a few from the top of my head Lags, Stipe Tripe, Nik, Derek Wilson, Cromwell. Not heard from Jack and Kate for a few years. Be interested to know where your getting the screen shots, been having a look only recently but not been able to find anything. From memory the theory that Alan Hardy was TGOBM was not true. We could see the individual IP addresses of the people who posted on the message board and it just didn’t match up. still have a season ticket, but can only make it to around half the home games due to work commitments. Looking forward to Halifax away on Tuesday Edited March 8 by Mike_Stott 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yard Dog Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 (edited) Didn't have the Internet in our house until about 2006! Could only look at Latics sites on the Internet occasionally at college and work but do remember the Canada site. Wasn't there an official message board as well around 2005/2006? Think I must have joined this forum fairly soon after it's inception and mad to think that was 17/18 years ago! Wasted a lot of time on this site at one point getting incredibly wound up by people like Oafc0000 and Corporal Jones. But there's been a lot of good posts and posters too over the years which has made this a top site and still something I look at fairly regularly. Well done to Matt and the admins.
