Happy 10th Birthday SAFooty.net!

In exactly 7 days, we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the formation of SAFooty.net.

The owner of this site doesn't appear to give a shit but let's face it, it's not every online forum that lasts 10 years.

Would be a good time to celebrate the people, the threads and the quotes and the SAFooty-isms that have shaped this family over the duration.

If only we had a 'pool room' of sorts where interesting posts were kept over time.

Ten years?

Surely after all this time somebody has located the Running Sheet (tm)?

How did we come about using the asterix?

Which is the longest running thread?

Why was everything so inappropriate?

These questions and more will be answered in the next week!

Can we get Don Lane to do some "Where are they now?" segments on former posters? Phil G, I wonder what he's up to?

We should also perhaps acknowledge the less entertaining moments, for instance, the loss of JAS and Mighty Eagles.

I celebrate birthdays on the day they happen, not seven days before.
Doesn't mean I don't give a shit.
I'm quite proud I created this site from scratch at the start with lots of help from others as we developed over the years.
I think the fact I've made almost 36,000 posts and spent countless hours behind he scenes on the site proves I may care just a little.
Continue with the hystetics though if its that's time again.

Yep, some might say I'm over over the top about this 10th anniversary but I'm prepared to go full on!
