Nah, not really mate. 8) Unlike Barcodes post-Keegan, I'm well aware that there is a world outside of Premiership walls! And living in Sheffield I get two home games next season. :TU:

For those who don't know, after more than five years as Editor, I've packed in working for B r i t i s h b o x i n g . n e t

This has nothing to do with the site going down - that has happened since I packed in. I never got involved with technical issues anyway so I can't help there.

To all those I've dealt with on here in relation to BBN over the years - thanks and all best. :TU:

Bump means that he's pushing the topic to the top of the page so that it's more noticeable.

Is BritishBoxing .net gone forever?

I hope not too. I did wonder how it made any money though.

There are enough BBN writers who post on here, can anyone tell us what is going on?

can we have an x-factor type contest for the new editor?
Terry's name has to be said like Rhydian's was

"Dooley"

We also, require a camp act, to keep things PC, so emersons hat can also go in the ring.

Massive job whoever is Editor!!!

Seriously hardwork and whoever does it needs to know how boxing works - articles go up that you might think are perfectly reasonable!! - you will be amazed how many people can get upset and threaten the legal route - seriously - whoever takes it needs to know what they are doing!!!

If you think I am writing sh*t - ask McNeilly!!! - he will tell you!!!
