    I dont seem to understand why we can have threads on everything in after hours except soccer, i know there are forums for it but there are also forums for politics,actors,legislation and English all which makes sense (they were all threads at 02 42 on the front page of AH)

    Yes i agree that After hours is not the kind off place to discuss all the in's and out's off football and all the arguments that will occur as i have said about politics aswell.

    But there should be leniancy when it comes to big occasions like potential European qualification which we are on the verge off for the first time in 23 years

    I think the mod's need to change the charter from the complete ban on football chat to leave open topics that are generally interesting to the majority off non footballing fans because this will bring in 8 million to the
    economy etc,I like to hear peoples opinions in after hours because there so much more humorous and articulate.

    Sorry for not coming across as well spoken as others but i believe the mods should be slightly more lenient on football topics when they have more relevance then the run off the mill Utd-Liverpool game,why should the likes of Justin Bieber or Michael D Higgins get there there threads of abuse and not Ryan Giggs etc

    Not looking for an argument just an explanation a poll would be appreciated to show what the majority want

    I agree, but sure I'm new here so have to talk somewhere about footy. What's the story with the not allowed into the soccer forum without consent? Bit mad.
