Hi there, with the new year looming I wish to extend an olive branch as an act of goodwill to those previously banned members. Same rules still apply so please don't abuse it. Ozfooty is under new management and has been for some time and like the previous owner wish to have their privacy respected. Feel free to use your old username no-one will be rejected.

Advanced Happy New Year to all.

Welcome back Grassy

Hey Oz Footy that would be great.
Grassy,Outer Seagull,Anchorman where all characters.
And the biggest of all Swan42.

all the best OzF

you have provided great relief during some dark times with this Covid that has affected all of us

What a great idea OFA with the new year rapidly approaching. Would be great to see the previous members of times gone by return if the desire is there. Not too difficult to follow a few simple guide lines one would think.

So far no banned members have returned, one old member who was banned, its not Leedy, said that he can log in but cant post. Also the email address ozfooty.net pings back his emails. What does one do, re-register or does everything goes back to how it used to be, just log in.

Hopefully the blokes that were banned want to come back.  Maybe some will as the season approaches.  We’ve had some stimulating ‘discussions’ and it’s great to be able to say what you mean (within reason) without someone fainting in shock.  Last thing any site needs is to be dominated by the wokes of the world.  

Some people never learn it seems. Entitled and ungrateful are words that immediately spring to mind. Give some people an inch and they take a mile. Stand the Test you are permanently banned. Unbelievable.

Winger is that Screemar you are referring to? His ban was temporary and had already expired. I’ve seen him logged in. My apologies his ban was still active, try posting now Screemar.

It was obvious that stt wasn’t going to be back for long, but that was quicker than I thought.  😀😀


come on back Screemar!!

To all you Inspector Clouseau's out there that are all OCD with your obsession and sense of entitlement about who owns this site. IT IS ABSOLUTELY NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. And for very good reasons as I've touched on previously it is my belief that the previous owners who created Ozfooty lost interest fast with all the cockfighting on here and legal threats.

If I knew the true state of this site when I took it over I wouldn't have wasted my considerable time and dollars on it if I am being completely honest. There is far more to maintaining a website such as this than I imagined and as a result it cost me a considerable amount of money from lost income and what I had to pay to get this site upgraded, migrated to the newer platform.

The new owners asked me to continue as an admin which also takes up some of my time. The new owners also wish to remain anonymous. All I'll say is they are offshore and far from our part of the world but you should all be grateful they have taken it over. They have expertise I don't have and this site will require further major upgrades in the very near future.

So I suggest to those returning to show a bit of respect and gratitude or the olive branch might be withdrawn. I won't put up with any smart arse comments aimed at me. If you can't appreciate an offer to bury the hatchet then don't bother coming here.
