    I've got a friend, a dedicated Reds fan, who's trying to register to join the BBS. However, there's no obvious way to do it. There's a login button, but no visible option to register for a new account.

    I joined in 2005 so I've not got a clue. Can any recent joiners help? Ta!

    Tried logging out and finding a register button myself but can't find one either. Perhaps it's been turned off?

    That's exactly what I tried, not a clue. Maybe it's yet another gagging order?

    We had a period of about 6 months when nobody new signed up, so im guessing something has been disabled? Someone was added a couple of weeks ago but that was the first since June. Strange...

    It’s been disabled to save anyone else the daily pain we all have to go through!

    Yep. No idea what the reason is for that. Only thing I can think of is that perhaps there was a period where there were so many spambot signups that tally had to temporarily turn it off

    Laughing at this thread, and have no clue either. Maybe we need to clear out the dead wood. One in, one out,

    Maybe new recruits are only allowed in the January window? Looking forward to the best window ever.

    Anyone with a multiple account want to surrender it? We could have a ban amnesty if you own up so we can make way for new blood? @Gally

    You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave.

    Register with alcoholics anonymous & there is a link. That's how I found myself on here. Thankfully supporting Barnsley FC is a perfect home to discuss your issues, especially if you lived through the Iley years.
