The people on the Bayern board are pretty nuts. They type in mostly broken English but a lot of them are a lot like the rantards.

Some guy just said that Bayern should buy Benedikt Howedes to be Daniel van Buyten's replacement, i.e. a backup. Howedes is Schalke's captain and only 24

There's a 218 page thread on the Bayern board about the Javi Martinez transfer.

I see this all the time and think its funnier every time I read. But it mostly happens on Facebook groups, more so than message boards (at least for Liverpool).

I read the gunners subreddit, most of them are pretty good because the rantards get downvoted to oblivion

Which is ironic, because if you're posting on a message board from another country you're usually at least somewhat well versed in the team and the game in general. I find a lot of the times, on thisisanfield, the American's are the smartest and most level headed of the posters.

For fricking sure b/c your not going to go on their board and sound like a dumbass. They are like rantards x10000 and being an american on there is like a bama fan posting on the rant all day and having shite thrown his way. Lots of frick off you yank for english teams

Go read (or not) the Chelsea boards. I know Roman is a billionaire but come on people we can't buy all of South America and Spain!!! The world class stars they want us to sign regardless of fit in the system would equal 5 Trillion dollars.

On the LFC boards there are some doom and gloomers, who saw yesterday as an atrocity and FSG is going to take LFC down...

They expect us to compete with MCFC, CFC and MUFC straight away... and expect the owners to finance this out of their own pocket...

What you saying bro? I'll 442 the frick out of you and you'll like it.

Does anyone actually know any decent English/British board for soccer? I tried a couple and they were all fricking awful. Forget tactics, I had to explain the basics of the transfer market to (apparently) grown men who feel qualified to comment. They have to be big, not TD.com big necessarily, but at least enough to have one representative of most Premier League teams.

The City boards are the same way regarding transfers. They will have 100+ page threads and will just kill or harass the people claiming to have inside information. They are very quick to call you out as a rag.
