Quote: PHIPPS "Well within facebook groups you can post messages, have wall posts, discussions, upload photos, comment on other people photos etc etc'" I’ve joined a few of these rugby league facebook groups and I must say that I haven’t been too impressed. There post about 50 things a day that I couldn’t give a damn about and I’ve soon put them on ‘hide’. Just like them, I’ll be putting you on ‘ignore’ soon. Quote: PHIPPS "A lot of people are on Facebook. A lot of people talk about rugby league on Facebook. However, a lot of people have friends on Facebook that couldn't really care if you post about rugby league and it's this bridge that i'll be attempting to fix.'" I think that in the next ten years we’ll see more social networks catering for people’s interests rather than having one big one like Facebook. There’s a fair few social networks that I can’t get on because I’m not wealthy enough for example - www.affluence.org/login.php I very rarely go on facebook these days and that’s probably because there’s other websites far more interesting. Websites like RLFANS..

Niche facebooks? .....Friends reunited....forces reunited.......they were a really good investment for ITV

Given that about 80,000 RL fans that attend SL games each week, if there was a market for such groups, then some soccer fan would have cracked it. Cricinfo is one of, if not the busiest sports website on the planet.....even they know to leave well enough alone.
Remember, facebook is not a charity...it is required to turn a profit and the key to this is data.......I will stick to RLFANS.COM where I know my identity will not be sold to marketing firms or my visits will not be subjected to behavioural targeting.........but good luck with all the elements associated with getting your idea off the back of a beer mat and on-line....servers, capacity, search engine optimisation, moderating, legal issues, e-communications, privacy issues etc.....

Free?? love that word, I'm in.

bluddy hippies

...While you seem to be pushing the mods in to a decision

If this did take off, the one thing i wouldn't do is add PHIPPS

Have no fear. It wont.

Sounds good, I'd like to see some stuff for supporters groups to have a page etc as well as clubs. I'd join.
