As you are all aware we have been looking for a couple of new mods to join seal team 6 sorry I mean the soccer mods.First we would like to thank everybody who took part in the process by ether putting themselves forward or nominating someone else.

So your new mods are PHB and x PyRo,both will be well known by most and PHB has been a soccer mod before so knows the ropes.I think you will all agree its a nice weekend for the lads to start.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Iago for all the good work he put into the soccer forum,he will be missed.I am also stepping down as the admins have asked me to take over the sports cat mod role,so I will still be around and be able to give the lads a dig out.But I think its best if I don't take an active role in the forum on a day to day bases as I will be looking over the appeals in the Dispute Resolution Forum.

Fairplay. Pyro does a top job over in the Gambling forum, I hear the FBI want him too to suss out some of their problems.:D

Great choices, imo. xPyRo did a great job in the gambling forum when he took over, as it really was a mental house before himself and Ade were made mods. Plus he provided the most epic banning ever.:pac:

PHB's alright too I suppose.:P

Just know xpyro from gambling forum and he seems to do a top job.

i have been told the best way to assert your authority is to knock out the biggest lad in the yard when the guards are distracted. Toothbrushes make good shivs.

And thanks to Iago and Dub13 for their hard work. Two very good mods who were always fair in their dealings and never let the fact that they were huge supporters of their clubs cloud their judgement.

I don't see any reason why I'd get it, I've been a good and active contributor to the forum, look at who started the football draft. I can think of other problems who'd surely be on 'the list.'

Let petty grievances affect his judgement on far too many occasions. Abused grey areas in the charter to target those he didn't like. Openly admitted to issuing an infraction to somebody because he had a bad day or something like that, can't remember his exact wording.

I have nothing against the man and wish him all the best, but i'm glad his reign of terror is over.

Presumably by "those he didn't like" you mean you?
