We have found the answer to why Mathis didn't play against Portugal! God bless Bruce Arena for doing background checks! Sorry to have taken this thread off course a bit.

And there was dancing in the aisles.

This will be, hands down, our best signing this summer. *wink*

I'm thinking of having a spring clean in here before the new season starts and binning all but the stickie threads and any others listed here for preservation.

Can I get a Yay or Nay from regulars and/or any threads (other than the stickies) that you wish to save from the chop? I have unstuck the end-of-season poll but will keep that one around for next May. Might as well build it up from there. Once I have a clear picture of Yay's v Nay's I will start binning if it's a Yay.

Cheers everyone.

Just unstick them all except this news and business one and let them die a natural death.

The "LFC on telly in the US" thread will get a new start in 50-odd days, but we should probably start a new thread on that one anyway rather than use the existing thread.

everyone agree with this?

Moderating by democracy? You must rule with an iron fist! Crush those ignorant peasants with your tools of oppression: Unsticky their favorite threads without warning! Merge random, unrelated threads at your whim! You must not be so benevelont with your charges, or they will rise up and smite you!

P.S. I concur.

Have you not read Matt's posts? :)

[Matt Clark]

I'll ignore that last remark ... ;)

Right, well as you will all have noted when you arrived here for your latest visit, I have done the prune. Only those threads we had agreed plus those with posts from today on have survived the cull. I hope you will agree it gets the place shipshape again for next season. We still have a thread for transfers (which, after Ketchup Boy's big move to Spain should be waking up soon) and for official business, plus the usual LFC MLS fans stuff.

Note I have renamed this thread to indicate that all my housekeeping stuff is going to be in here alongside the official LFC stuff that gets posted in this forum.

Juice FM apologise for Sun adverts
CITY CENTRE radio station JUICE FM have issued a full and frank apology following a recent advertising campaign involving The Sun newspaper. Within
hours of Juice FM running the first of a series of adverts promoting the Sun at the weekend, a host of angry city residents contacted the radio station
to complain. icLiverpool also received a number of e-mails and messages on our notice boards from people who were dismayed at hearing the campaign.
Ever since 1989 when the Sun ran an inaccurate story in the aftermath of the Hillsborough disaster, in which 96 Liverpool fans lost their lives, concerning the conduct of Reds fans involved in the tragedy the newspaper has been the subject of an ongoing boycott by many people in the city. Not
only did the headlining article called 'The Truth' outline false and derogatory comments concerning fans in and around the Leppings Lane End
where the tragic scenes unfolded, but the subsequent failure of the Sun to issue an apology now means the newspaper is largely unwelcome throughout Merseyside. It is for this reason that many people, including friends and family of those who died and suffered 14 years ago, felt so aggrieved that a local radio station such as Juice FM felt the need to promote the Sun. After receiving the complaints however, Juice FM Managing Director, Ian Clasper contacted icLiverpool immediately to ensure us the adverts had now been scrapped and to explain why they appeared in the first place. "This was a very unfortunate error on our part and it is not within our policy to carry such adverts," he said, "the campaign has been pulled with immediate effect.
"Our advertising is arranged on a national basis and as our ad-campaign manager has been on holiday, this somehow slipped through the net. "We do
have procedures in place to try and ensure this type of thing doesn't happen and I would like to state our full apologies to anyone who took offence.
"Juice FM is a local radio station and we try our best to be sensitive to local tastes and needs. We will do our utmost to ensure that nothing like
this happens in the future." * A recent report in Mediaweek magazine estimated that the ongoing boycott of the Sun on Merseyside has cost the
newspaper £125 million.
