I would prefer to participate in /v/football in the beginning rather than just /v/reddevils. I think we should have a sit down together though to set out what we want the sub to be about. It's such a broad subject but all that ever really gets talked about on /r/soccer is backpage shite.

I think it is better that a new board is made for that specifically. Or that post match threads feature them or link to the other board.

I wouldn't mind if it was a thread created for all the goals in a specific game. I too don't want to end up with just individual gfys of goals. If it was a thread for a specific match and it contained all the goals that would be good.

Hey again, just wanted to hijack to say that I started a Liverpool sub at /v/LiverpoolFC so any Reds fans are more than welcome!

I will most definitely subscribe and will contribute. I just hope that everyone making team specific subverses doesn't distracts from trying to set up a main football focused home. I would love if we can get a main home for football going. I don't feel Voat has a large enough user base (football fans) to have so many different branches at the moment but all will work out in good time.

I already mentioned it in /v/soccer. I think the main football subverse should track the subverses we have for football teams right now.

I agree . It would be in our best interests to give up one sub and make one our main home so we can just build on that instead of being like warring factions. My vote lies with /v/football because I feel that we could all use a new slate instead of inheriting /r /soccer's reputation. It does seem as though the mods of both football subverses are not active seeing as none of them have responded. The mod of /v/reddevils hasn't answered either which leads me to believe that they gave up hope.

I agree with making /v/football the main subverse, but will see what everyone decides. I know everyone probably lives in different time zones so I don't expect much to happen quickly ( next few hours). Asides from that it should give enough time for discussion and appropriate time for the mods to respond. I would like to if we can just start throwing out suggestions as to what we would like to see, not see, concepts such as information on the sidebar. Can I ask that you make each suggestion a different comment and that way people can upvoat if they agree, and I ask that no one downvoats, instead just ignore something they don't want. Although just imaginary karma points I don't think it is fair or people to be "punished" for suggesting and contributing to the discussion.

Yes, We'll wait for the rest to vote on which subverse to use. Baardmeester is now active and he is in the Netherlands so I'd be up at the same time he is except for when I'm at work. Idk about the rest though so we'll have introductions later on.

Shall we go ahead and make a suggestion thread here or should we wait on the consensus vote for which subverse to use?

/v/football choice would be more obvious since that is how the game is really called. Futher more I'm active now. Also see the post in the other meta thread.

Good to see you here. I hope we are not stepping on your toes here but would you like to keep this discussion going or do you have your own plans for how you want to go forward?

Oh thank God you're here. I was wondering what had happened seeing as you've only just requested the subverse the other day. Are you Dutch?

Just to call attention to those I feel would benefit from seeing this:

@VernacularOracle , @ThoraxtheImpaler , @NeptuneRises , @Chronus , @whiteguy88 , @Juve

And the current mods /v/football - @Baardmeester and for /v/soccer - @tabularassa

It'll be nice to have /v/football instead of /v/soccer, I don't like the word soccer. I subbed to both anyways so I'm sorted whichever way it goes :D

I also prefer to have /v/football, I just thought /v/soccer already had a lot of subscribers so there was already a small user base to start with. However, it is preferable 10 active subscribers than 90 unactive ones.
