Been thinking about the interviews, had a few ideas but need to speak to the club about it. Like you say it be a good laugh for the lads, and it’s all positive stuff so I do hope the club won’t have any objections.

I like the idea of the doing fan profiles, could be a good laugh and it’s something different.

Every idea is appreciated.

We are hoping to do more coverage on the academy and they certainly deserve it seen as they are having a fantastic season!

Player profiles up, not sure if anyone noticed them but been up for couple months and also some information on the 3 signings for next season, feel free to leave comments on any of the articles etc.Nice one mate, thank's for them

Anything that takes hits away from the club site, like player interviews etc. is unlikely to be welcome (because of sponsors) - but you may get lucky. Turning the site into more of a fanzine is probably the best way forward, IMO.

Yeah, that's the only problem. Would be good to talk to the odd player but no worries if not! Would be an added bonus but we will have planty of ideas to work with if they say no

You could always interview people's sources from on here. Imagine an interview with Ryan Atkin's Aunties neighbour!

The inside scoop!

ok my thoughts..

fanzine a great idea and would not tread on clubs toes, what you need are maybe 6 or seven recurrent themes which others can feed in to ie and im being serious here, the unknown centres aunties neighbour page, i quite like the idea of a fan in the stand problem page, dear fan in the stand what is the correct response to the opposisition scruim half placing the ball in the scrum etc etc??? the point being to these is you dont need to reinvent the wheel every week or so just ask different questions. and situations that are current will throw up there own material.

Another thought was it should try and have a set number of pages and be printable, and have up coming games and promotioons on fron page.
but basically go for about 6 pages a week of quality rather than trying to do too much, actually six pages a week is a lot trust me ive done it.

the serious stuff of cause will do its self, stadium, adam fund, signings, etc the only point i would make here is to make sure everything is covered legally i remember the old steam pig getting in to real trouble some years back with libel laws.

good luck though!

Why what went on there?

Dunno but also remember Roonaldo had trouble over his fanzine a couple of years back. Anything like a fanzine or forums have to be kept seperate from the club.

Aye - but he was courting it with some of the stuff he was priniting - even if it seemed funny at the time.

Beware images which contain the players kids!

There is something akin to this in the match programme as well - so I honestly can't see it happening I'm afraid.

Like the idea of the fans profiles - honestly thought about doing that for the match programme at one time. I think we all have a tale to tell - and an explanation to give as to why we do follow the Mighty Trin!

dunno the details but was sort of stuff mods take off here, you know having a go at real people, or organisations!
basically you are running a newspaper whether you like it or not, and are subject to the same rules, but not having the resources to insure yourself against lawsuits, so best to stick to known facts and as little personal stuff as you can get away with whilst remaining intresting to your target group.

A lot of the stuff that gets posted on here, if you posted it on a non forum site could get you in bother, you know, this or that player isnt trying, the council this that or the other, this director is only in iot fior ...... etc etc, basically because you are posting it as opinion , wheras with a owned site your stating it as fact.

however thats the down side the up side is it could be great, but id start small and let it grow rather than aim too high and let it flop.

A lot of the football fanzines get away with some pretty outrageous stuff there are ways round these things changing names ect.

its with doubt a big task to get this website running smoothly and kept up to date, adam has spent a lot of time with the basis of what will get better, with the help of fans that could take time out and do small snippets it would help enormously.

this won't happen over night and ideas are running strong, I would like to hear that we have the backing from the club as for the news we don't want to put on hearsay / rumours,
the site should back up the club and also help the supporters in picking up information that they may require with quick links
