I can't explain that Beechcoomber. If I click on the search link I gave in my first post, that site is currently shown as the second on the results that come up.

The search itself was a simple one - I just searched for "football forums". The only other thing I did was decide to search for UK sites as I suspected (perhaps wrongly) that a global search would turn up a lot of hits for the US and another version of football. To do this I used google.co.uk (not google.com) and opted for "show pages from uk only". I hope the site turns out OK for you.

Good luck with your other research.

PS I'm not much into football at the moment. We (Norwich) can't win a game and I think we are going straight back down.
