I should be off to the Barca V Citeh game at the Camp Nou in a couple of weeks. I'd happily throw something together about the best team in all the land and all the world and how Richard Dunne copes with Messi if people are interested.

Do that Jimbo. I'm sure it will fit in somewhere.

Once again, I need to put out an appeal on behalf of the front page. It needs feeding regularly and its support network is small at the moment. This network is finding it hard to cope and without help the front page may soon become gravely ill, or may even die.

Now Gary Megson is no more, apathy should leave town with him. We are on the verge of a glorious new era (maybe) and that should get people excited and thrilled and hopefully ready to drive the front page back to the prime specimen it was for much of the last decade, when people were falling over themselves to contribute to its well being.

Writing an article is easy and myself, Tango, DSB, Mof and others are (usually) always around to accept and polish your submissions.

So... please save the front page! Thank you.

Yes. Do it. If possible, make it really really really provocative and arguable, just to prompt people into writing follow-ups

Agreed. As there are no games at present we need something like that to keep the forums motoring.

Would anyone like to do an appraisal of Coyle's playing days at BWFC, in readiness for his managerial stint here?

Go on - I'll do that.

Concentrating on the period before the away game at Burnden, when everyone thought he was rubbish....

He was a bit rubbish.

You finished it yet?

I need to check anything good you've said about him then I can refute it

Sorry for lateness guys, hopefully have something substantive done by tomorrow. And the article as well

Just sent one to TD, that still right? It's Arsenal related

That's fine, Tango will feed it back through our high-tech system.

I'm still working on Relegation Form too, in a sort of one paragraph per week on average type fashion. Finding it strangely tough to put together a story about the opening months of the Megson era, knowing everything that's happened since.

The part reminiscing glowingly about Owen Coyle's playing days seem a bit all-too-convenient right now too!

Can someone tell me how to start this? I am considered to be computer savvie but despite wandering round the site for 15 mins I cannot find where to start writing my own article.

Write it. Then send it by PM to Ratbert.

write it - don't worry too much about formatting - and paste the text into a PM to rattie.... job done - he then inserts spelling mistakes and grammatical errors to make you look bad - and puts it on the front page!

What they said. I am ALWAYS kind

Can someone talk me through the Image Caption feature on the front page, regarding Adebayor and Benjani.

I don't get it.

I enjoyed the Allardyce 'play it into space' one, but this one is just plain bizarre.
