Can't say I'm that impressed with the layout and functionality of the blogs so far.

(To test the feature and give it a chance despite my inherent hatred of the concept of egotistical 'blogs', I have a 'blog' about Liverpool's pre-season - one advantage of the blog is that anybody's comments won't clutter my posts as they would on a thread. If anybody wants to comment on it or post questions/queries then please do.)

Early days but I can't see me switching much away from the forum.

I tried to start one today (moving my fitness challenge to somewhere where it wouldn't keep appearing on the 24hrs bit when I come to updating it), and as it was really a blog anyway. I couldn't use any of the smileys or other text altering bits - so the formatting doesn't look as nice as I'd like.

This aside, it could be a better format for this type of thing than a thread. Will give it a go for a while to see if anyone reads it! :lol:

Not sure I really like the idea. Won't some interesting 'community' type stuff get lost?

i've bookmarked murfs excellent pre season blog....i find it much more appealing that i can see all murfs "posts" without interuption from other fisoers. It it was in a standard forum post , no doubt it would have reached 3 pages by now with countless drivel interspersing his valuable comments.

The formatting (bold/smilies etc) has now been fixed.

Can the bizarre "1 out of 52 out of 53 out of 54 out of 55 out of 5" text either be replaced by images or at least a space between each option?

Blogging doesn't really seem to be taking off on the site. Maybe a 'view recent blogs' link under the 1 day, 7 days etc links might help people easily find interesting ones?

Are you restricted to one blog? For instance, could you have one about golf and another about football or do they have to be lumped together?

I'm enjoying my blog at the moment.

I've been using mine so I can post my thoughts about my season and how and why I make my transfers. It's not the most entertaining read at the moment but I'm looking for a very interesting ending in May.

Thanks by the way to those who have read it so far :D
