I'm interested in your thoughts regarding making this an all sports forum.

Other than the soccer (covered in the English Premier League forum) we could post about and discuss any sport - golf, tennis, athletics, F1, Olympics, netball, horse/dog racing, wrestling, whatever.

I particularly want to hear from our regulars - couragous cloke, Kristin, Nicki Slater, NP, London Dave, Fradam, Gobbles, JLC, pies4ever, Lazza - but anyone's opinion is welcome.

I would be supportive of that Donny as I love most sports and like to keep up with the news. But I wonder if it will get too crowded if too many press articles & posts on various sports are posted here? Just a thought but maybe you could limit it to five or six major sports, other than the soccer?

Yeah sounds good to me especially when not in cricket season. I love horse racing so some topics about that would be fantastic.

great suggestion :)

No I don't like it at all sorry Donny, I like the cricket being seperate but that's just my opinion. Couldn't you make a seperate forum for all other sports?

I think it would be a great idea to have an all sports forum. But the cricket forum does have enough traffic as it is and Niki Slaters idea of a new forum would be ideal.

But on the other hand if Mike didn't agree to make a new forum it would be good to attract more users during the cricket off season, where the cricket forum does get used alot less.

You think this board has enough traffic as it is? It doesn't really - it's very quiet more often than not, and instead of crowding up the board with heaps of different forums, I think the sensible thing to do is just change this one into an All-Sports Cafe!

World of Sport was a crazy show :)

Donny, this is an absolutly fantastic Idea....it will free up the general Discussion board as well as provide a place for us to vent all of thoughts on every issue in sport........and "All Sports Caf'e" sounds good as does the other suggestion "world of sport"

Donny good to see you are still an inovator, keeping Australia best BB fresh and new..
