I was also a MOS refugee, albeit no idea a) how I ended up here or b) why my first post seems to predate my joining the site. Nice to see that my second post was about Billie Piper though, some things never change!

Why is it when I make scrambled eggs they all come out unbroken, yet when I make fried eggs they plop all over the place?

Because you’re supposed to take them out of the shell.

Yeo(vil Red) too. Herthab already mentioned. Fred Elliott lost the football love but I think he still keeps an eye on things

I just had a quick look at some of my early posts. It looks like the first Match Day Thread I was involved in ended upa measly 4 pages long!! Sorry, this chat should probably go in a nostalgia thread or something.

Have you still got the numberplate? I seem to remember you trying to hawk it off on here at some point.

Forum was created before 2006. …but…we changed database (I think) and everyone’s account migrated across but they joined date change (I think) perhaps when Barry Scott took ownership from Dazzza.
In my mind I have the TEF origins around the start of the 05/06 season. I met Yeovil Red, Ralphy, Magicroundabout, Walrus, Sonic Youth (and possibly others) in the Merlin before our first home game which was Oldham (I think) I’m sure we lost.
Think some people had met up in the away end at Barnsley on the Saturday previous (we lost)
Although I have a feeling I didn’t migrate over straight away. Join thisis after the Sheffield Wednesday opener in 2003

I think someone needs to start a 'Mythical Origins of Thetownend.com' thread and get an abusive mod to pin it, it might save this conversation happening every six months or so. Dazzza started it in late Nov/early Dec 2004, with the first version lasting only a few days(all those posts are gone). The change that caused the reset was possibly when Dazzza handed the reigns to Whits? Barry took over later.
