That is not to say that the developments that are ongoing aren’t of importance, of course they are, but here at NUFCBlog.org it’s more a case of Newcastle United, first and foremost.
As well as bringing you the latest on all things Newcastle and giving you all a platform for debate, some of which can be quite tasty at times, both myself and Workyticket have been busy with other stuff for this place. You’ll be able to see some of it with your own eyes, whilst some of it may not be so obvious at first glance. Let’s just say that ‘community’ is the keyword.
You may be able to tell by the picture some of what I am about to say, but there still may be some people that aren’t aware of it.
Nufcblog.org is now on Facebook, and you can ‘like’ our page here. On there you can discuss, well anything you want really, much like this place, but on a platform where lots and lots more people are accesable. All the latest articles are posted up on there, although they are only previews, so you can be made aware of things that are happening on here, even whilst you’re not on here.
It’s all about building a community where Newcastle fans the world over can chat, interact and share things between them and is designed to run alongside this place. It’s could also possibly be something that could maybe attract a random competition or two at some point. Who knows eh?
Aswell as Facebook, you can also ‘follow’ NUFCBlog.org on Twitter. I used to really think it was a pointless thing, but now I have been playing around on there it is actually quite fun. All you need to do is follow the right people, and other Newcastle fans, and it can be a great laugh, and a useful source of information. Some people who we are currently following include Wayne Routledge, Alan Smith and Kevin Nolan, all of whom have been verified I believe.
It doesn’t stop there though, oh no. Part of the whole community building exercise requires people getting involved, on all fronts, and one way of doing that is by getting people involved in competitions with each other, friendly ones of course, with maybe possibly random prizes.
Our new Fantasy Football League is just one part of that, and there will hopefully be more things like that to come in the future. To join, if you haven’t already, click here and follow the instructions and you will be up and running in no time.
Updates will be done via this place, Facebook and Twitter so there is no need to miss out on anything.
The interest and take up so far in the Fantasy Football League has been staggering really, it has shocked me in fairness, so well done to all that have joined already. Likewise, well done to all posters on here, all the fans on Facebook and all of our Twitter followers. It’s not often I get the chance to say this, but thank-you all, without you this place really wouldn’t exist.
Rest assured there are more plans afoot though, it doesn’t stop here. I’ll say it again though, the keyword throughout all of this is ‘community’, it’s about getting everyone involved. The debate will always be there, and I am sure parts of it will be as scathing and heated as ever, but getting everyone involved and ineracting is what it’s all about at the end of the day. Long may it continue.
