One of my first posts on this forum was whether it was OK for me to be here - I have never been to Accrington and have no emotional ties with the place, but I do enjoy the discussions on here.

Just because people don't share common ground in terms of where you live or which team you support (and I don't just mean football) doesn't necessarily mean that you can't have a good chin wag with them. I joined a Ferrari-lovers website, and let it slip that I didn't like Schumacher, only for one of the mods to start addressing me by my name and telling me that he didn't see how I could bring anything to the forum. He was baiting me, but I refused to rise, which was probably not what he was expecting.

The thing is, one of my best friends is a Schumacher fan!

I hope I bring something to the forum, even though I am from 'down south'!

If not, let me know and I'll bow out gracefully!!!
