Went to look at the Big Board about 90 minuts ago on my laptop, and found that I was not signed in.

Strange I thought as always signed in, scrambled around to find password, didn't work, requested new one, didn't work.

Looked at further emails and it seems that someone else had been trying to sign in as me, (not my IP address) and frozen sign on for a period on time.

Not sure if this was just an attack on my taste on music, football thoughts, or trying to send the wrong answers into the quiz league, or a concerted attack on NSC.

Anyway, if you don't have a strong password on NSC it may be worth changing to a more secure one.

Nobody listens to my pointless opinions anyway. Might do some good to have someone hack my account and post something worth reading.

:ohmy:

Possibly a spy in the camp. I'll have to check the IDs of all the entrants in case some of them are Leeds United fans.

NSC has been sold to Leeds. It was evidently better than WACCOE and as we’re clearly a smaller forum from a small club, [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] caved in immediately for £5 and a case of Magners.

If they can’t have Ben White, they’ll stop us laughing about it.
