Reservoir Dubs

For what it's worth... I would offer to be a mod on any new version of ressers...

I know that will immediately alienate a few folk, but the offer remains!

I'm not sure what I can offer technically but I'd get involved someway. Perhaps any interested parties could pm me. I know there was a post earlier saying the guys might consider passing the baton. Perhaps there is worth in a mature discussion on the future

So this is where ressers go when they die, a resser limbo. A terrible pity about the site, the family are fearing withdrawal symptoms, don`t know what happened, but fair play to all that put work into it over the years, you owe nobody nothing.

That's the Spanish contingent all accounted for so. Bienvenido bigp!

Jaysus lads, this is fast becoming a refuge for all homeless Ressers. Please give generously

Would also offer my services and know a few who would get involved!!

Real, real shame it came to this if it's definitely gone altogether. There was a wealth of information on that site including many great anecdotes from Dublin GAA in times gone by besides up to date results.

I work in Web dev so would be willing to contribute too. I know the season is nearly over but it might be worthwhile in the meantime providing a site where the only thing you can do is submit results and scores, not text?

Then you could build up a more loyal following ie grant access for those who regularly submit correct scores, etc.

Hi, i'm Ed Winchester. And i'd just like to add to those posts praising Res Dubs. She was a formidable mistress for many many years and she will be missed. First and last site i clicked on everyday.

The Directions to Dublin GAA Clubs section was a great resource.

I still believe in Resdubs, I hope it returns, pronto. .

That dubmatchtracker page on twitter will pin a clubhouse or a pitch on google maps for you if you ask them i would think. at least they are still there for fixtures and scores. can pretty much ask them anything

res dubs will defo be a loss for banter and scores. i would say it will be replaced or will start back up again. there is no way such a void would be left like that. with all the members it had the resources have to be there to continue in some capacity

Just in from Barcelona after a last minute defeat and the first thing i find out is that ressers has ceased trading :mad:

I was a newbie to resdubs in terms of posting but have followed it for a long time.

Had a lot of time for a lot of posters who new their football.

Cheers to the mods for their effort and i hope something can be revived. Resdubs was too good not be continue in some form.

You were alienated when you got born in BallyMun

Good riddance to it

No great loss. A cheerleading site where disent from the natural order was not permitted. You couldn't discuss anything in any deep way for fear of offending anyone who might choose to take offence. Great for local club scores but a useless waste of time if you actually wanted to debate issues and express a contrary point of view.

Glad to hear that, good news. An institution & invaluable source of info for the club scene. Thoroughly enjoyed the banter/ debate.
I had the pleasure of meeting Mr White at this years Heineken Cup, I would not have got to see the game without his help. Neither scenario could have happened without the site. Sincere thanks to him & his colleagues who've moderated it for so many people, sober, drunk, depressed, happy etc over the years. Ye were great;)

Same with me - I wouldn't have got to meet Mr Blue if hadn't been for the site. Despite that, I still think Reservoir Dubs should be kept on!

I was a contributor of sorts for a long time and got out of it a couple of years ago. No need to go into the reasons for my departure but I never stopped visiting. I am sad to see its demise as it was a huge resource for us folks overseas.
