banana Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 <<<<<< He is! Anyone with a join date of Jan-Apr 2003 would be considered an "original migrator". As you pass us in the corridor should doth your cap and thank us! Just found the member list sorted by join date! After Div, sergie's no1 fan was the first to join. Reynard and David W the only others I immediately recognise on the first page. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 aye whats the deal with the hot tub? IIRC Div has one, I sincerely hope this is part of the story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Nederlander Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Just found the member list sorted by join date! After Div, sergie's no1 fan was the first to join. That list's been thinned out a bit. Each member's profile page contains a reference to their member number - Serge is number 13 (mine is 181) I'm fairly sure Pompey was No 2 !? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardinal Richelieu Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I joined the same day as C'mon_the_sons and sjm89 who are both still active. I'm sure your life is enriched with this vital information. Can't believe there are only around 1,000 members older than me. Mind you, I was into P+B before it became fashionable etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 How did everyone find out about P&B, I genuinely can't remember how I did. I never posted on any other forum before here. I still don't. It's very strange, it's like, it's .. Destiny. Mind I was reading an Arbroath forum and somebody was on about it with regards to who we were after in the transfer window so had a skek and joined. Nearly 8 years now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ludo*1 Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 (edited) Never really posted on another forum. I do now. Posted on Dee Mad, the Official and now a Mod on the new TheDarkBlues, but P&B was my first! Think I typed in 'Scottish football forum' and this came up: Link. But it was the name Pie and Bovril that attracted me I think! As an aside, has anyone ever used that forum I've linked before? Think that's the first time I've clicked onto it since 2007! ETA: Seems it was only made in 09, must have been a different one I clicked all those years ago.

Ned Nederlander Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 How did everyone find out about P&B I think most of the original wave came over from Scottish Football Online which kept going offline - I think I stuck it out the longest though and hung on until SFO was absolutely dead in the water before venturing over here. The fact that most of us knew about P&B in the first place was down to St Sid's endless spamming and trolling of SFO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Nosejob Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Any other veterans from the BBC Scottish Football Forums on here? I used to post there before it shut down and even had a "heads gone" moment. When it shut, I switched to Thistle forums, then to here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very strange, it's like, it's .. Destiny. Weird you ask this, was trying to remember earlier today. Literally cannot remember, maybe a thread was linked to from a United forum. Also wondering if Div did any marketing to attract new posters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dee Man Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Weird you ask this, was trying to remember earlier today. Literally cannot remember, maybe a thread was linked to from a United forum. Also wondering if Div did any marketing to attract new posters. It was the Michael Bay produced Pie and Bovril advert that brought me here. It was on during the ad break on the 10 o'clock news after a DFS commercial. The third explosion sold it to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had 606 too, in my experience anything Scottish was hi jacked by English lads taking the piss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 I used to exclusively read Steelmen Online and 606. Those were grim times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albino Rover Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I used to read through 606 and it was utter garbage! The only other forums I've posted on have been the Rovers messageboards- and I migrated to P&B not long after people at the club (including the manager) made it clear they wouldn't take any criticism whatsoever, up to the point of deleting some negative posts. Hence the nickname Pravda. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
