Blue-and-Amber.co.uk was set up on November 16th 1999 - the same day Kev Ratcliffe was announced Town boss. Ty Marshall and Tim Spencer set it up but Tim quickly lost interest and I started helping Ty with the site in December 1999. We used to link to Schizo's Messageboard back then - I can't remember what type it was - a boardhost maybe? but I remember it being like a primative confguide type board all in thread layout and I too remember Dale's famous 'invade the Chester board' too lol - I have a feeling Schizo still isn't flavour of the month in Chester City internet land today The messageboard moved to be part of blue-and-ambe.co.uk when b&a joined the rivals network and has been under the b&a banner since. Members come and go. Many stay but don't post as much as they used to. Someone should write an article or do a time-line on how this got started up and the people who have come and gone or something. our own little bit of history. or am i just talking complete b.a.l.l.s

it's a good idea
but it would need to be done by one of the original crew if it were to be worthwhile, methinks.

Agreed. I think I started visiting these boards towards the end of last season, last one or two games and all of this season, this place gets quite good with all the banter etc. can't see me going anywhere fast. ;D

I would be up for helping with a B&A timeline, as I'm sure many of the other original users would be. In the meantime I suggest people check out the story archives on www.theshrews.com, some of mysticmurrays old articles are legendary

I'll see if I can dig out a link to it, unless Dave hartley's online and still has the website archived somewhere...

That would be great Dan lad, I remember that article and it was a cracker, I'm sure we can create a new one too tho to take into account memories the newer users will have, there have been some classic moments over the last 2 years...

About 3 seasons now i think, my appearance on these boards was a baptism of fire having critisised the Shrews world commentary team as being boring and uninteresting ( I think i was a little bit more scathing ) Welshcliffe and Tricky_Micky were not amused, i survived that onslought, although there have been plenty more since, as most will know im not afraid to be alone in my thinking and will defend my opinions to the last and have probably made quite a few enemies as a result .
