I know we've asked numerous times but it's sorely needed.. We have a NFL forum but we probably have 2-3x the amount of soccer fans.

Who ever is interested just post and say you're interest and i'll add your username to the list. Let's try to gauge interest on a forum

Nah.

It's just the World Cup where we see multiple threads here.

We would see more if there was a subforum

So count me in

Naaah. During this WC everything exploded a little, but I feel during the season we are pretty good at keeping the footy talk confined to one or two threads. Which isn't a hassle. There is no seperate BTE sub either. No seperate movie/music sub. It's all good because it's all stuff many people want to talk about and it's not an inconsiderate number of threads for the people who don't care for it.

The reason the NFL forum need to be seperate is because two or three NFL fans would create seperate threads for every single rumor and every single important game flooding the OTC with many NFL shit every single weekend even though almost nobody cared.

I feel theres less talk because we have to confine ourselves two one mega thread but with a forum we can have actual discussions and what not. We can create threads for each league, a general transfer thread, transfer thread, threads for the big games(real v Bayern, etc), the tournys(WC, EC, coppa america, olympic, qualifiers, etc)

Great idea! A soccer forum would generate as much traffic as the WNBA forum.

I'd rather it be an "other sports" forum or "international sports" forum.

It's just the World cup.

once its over American press gives the sport no coverage at all which means the sheep will no longer care about it.

I vote yes. For example, the Portland - Seattle game on ESPN2 right now could potentially get some attention. IDK if there's an MLS thread on here. It should be bumped by someone who has bookmarked it, if it exists.

There should be just a other sports sub forum where u can put soccer, nfl, mma, boxing etc.

Yeah soccer could have its own forum there are lots of Europeans here who would discuss their leagues.

Mixing the two footballs together in one forum is a horrible idea. Every other thread would be an argument about which sport is more entertaining and which sport has the better athletes.

I think this is the best solution.

Yes please. It'd be awesome to have a dedicated place to discuss all things soccer. Can't wait to make the Arsenal Thread :rockon:

I think you'd be better off just making a big OFFICIAL SOCCER THREAD in here.

If you make a new subforum for soccer, i doubt many people will go there.

Just look at the team subforums here. If i want to talk about the Bucks, I'd rather make a thread in the main forum then going to the Bucks subforum where i know no one will see it.

I mean there's an American Football forum, and I can almost certainly guarantee that a Soccer forum would be more active. Shit goes on from August to May, and there's literally dozens of leagues.

This needs to happen.

no it wouldn't...there are way more US posters here than foreigners

vast majority of US posters don't care about soccer outside of the World Cup...meanwhile the Super Bowl attracts all of us, the NFL forum was created because NFL threads were dominating the OTC every year, and the only time that happens to the OTC with soccer is during the WC


that being said I all for you guys getting a soccer forum...hope it happens
