bangkoksaint Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Just got to say thanks for everything you do on this forum. Not having it for a couple of days feels like someone has removed part of me! Having said that it was maybe lucky that it was down yesterday!! 16
EssEffCee Posted January 5 Posted January 5 I use this forum for all my Saints news. Anyone know how we got on yesterday? 19
64saint Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Was it coincidence that the site crashed at the same time as our worst performance since .......🤔 Joking aside, thanks to owners of the forum for their hard work, certainly missed following the comments yesterday 6

iansums Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Good to see the site up again, for a moment I thought Steve had handed the running of it over to Sports Republic. 1 23
Lighthouse Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Hope you're not all Jonesing too badly after all that. (I had no part in fixing anything BTW).
Guest Posted January 5 Posted January 5 This is a fantastic forum, I love reading through the match threads and engaging with other fans. 👍🏻👏🏻

Chris cooper Posted January 5 Posted January 5 What was the problem with the site ? Virus of some sort or something more sinister?
Turkish Posted January 5 Posted January 5 I expect my £0.14 refund for the days loss of usage to be paid back onto the card the £5 was taken from for my annual subscription. 8

the boy from saints Posted January 5 Posted January 5 It just goes to show how much `i miss this Forum! Tried the UI but there's no competition. Thanks for everyone involved in keeping this sire running! You only really understand how much you miss something when it's gone!
Badger Posted January 5 Posted January 5 (edited) Did wonder if it was purely coincidence that the site was out of order yesterday or not. Perhaps a good job it was, as although we all needed somewhere to vent, this place might have been incandescent yesterday afternoon. I was confronted with this on trying to log in: Didn’t know if this was displayed for SR, and players, or if the Admins like the team had just said “nah, fuck it… ‘ and given up.

Thanks for everyone involved in keeping this sire running! You only really understand how much you miss something when it's gone! Expand Ditto. Have to thank those running the site for their work in providing it. Others don’t come close, and this provides a good outlet and source of info, especially for us exiles.

rallyboy Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Well done Steve, I thought for a moment that Sports Republic had taken over running it with an inevitable outcome. 1
Football Special Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Not good enough, I want my fiver back. Sack the board.
coalman Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Thanks to whoever brought the forum back from the dead. Good news. Bad news we have to talk about yesterday.
revolution saint Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Glad the forum is back, I had no idea what to think. 1 5

Lee On Solent Saint Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Absolutely echo those above, I needed to come on here and vent about the game, really isn't the same when you have to talk to your wife about the game when you get home.

whelk Posted January 5 Posted January 5 I now have loads of new hobbies now since the site went down. Crochet very underrated lads 2
SaintTex Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Saintsweb is a lifeline for all things Saints for those of us in the United States. So glad it is back up and running. I felt like i had lost the pulse of club and supporters while down. wait.. do we have a pulse? 1

Expand Those weird Saints-related Facebook groups might be for you then, seen some proper odd stuff going on there whereby the admins set every post on matchday to be fully moderated so they quite often don't become visible to everybody else until days later, so then somebody has posted something in reaction to an incident in a game on the Saturday and it then gets posted around the same sort of time as a game we're playing on the Wednesday utter lunacy. 3

M271 Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Good to see it back, thanks Steve. I had a problem signing back in because it asked for my email address that I used when I registered many years ago rather than my user name. I tried all of my current addresses without success and then remembered that I had to use my works address (I’ve been retired 6 years!) for some reason I couldn’t register with Microsoft type emails at the time.
