Question Why isn't this subforum more active?

Honestly, I'm shocked OM have some of the most passionate supporters in the world....what gives? I know OM is on hard times, but time to dig in and still support your club.

Any thoughts?

Most of the hardcore OM supporters probably post on french laguage boards elsewhere...

I know, but you would think that there would still be more OM supporters since they are the biggest club in Ligue 1.

Every board, to be successful, requires at least one exceptionally knowledgeable, active poster who is able to provide stimulating discussion (think ganu on the PSG boards). Or, an inordinate amount of posters who have something significant to say.

This board is a collection of people who post a few times a month. They have enough posters, they just don't post enough.

Good points. I post 6-10 times a day a day on BS.

Most Americans who follow and support soccer dont give a crap about French soccer and Big Soccer has predominately Americans posting on it.

Over the past 2 seasons, I really have enjoyed watching Ligue 1. I know it is only 1 match a week, but their some talented players to see.
