A Note On Arsenal America Postings

A big thank you to the growing number of members who are sending in submissions. I appreciate your efforts.

As you can perhaps imagine, with over 800 members and a fixture schedule busier than Paris Hilton’s party schedule, there is just too much.

I’ll make this more official during the summer, but I’m trying to limit the posts here to original content. By that I mean original comments/editorials from myself and members. You’re going to see less “news stories” here on the main page. There are several reasons for this:

1. Much of this can be found all over the web and on our bigsoccer message board much sooner than it appears here.

2. I recognize that just about everyone surfs the net and uses several sources for information.

3. We have so many members with intelligent things to say, I want them to have more opportunities for their efforts to remain on the main page.

CALLING CHARLESTON SC

Is anyone out there from, or familiar with, Charleston, South Carolina’s viewing options for upcoming Arsenal games. I went to the Pub Guide section in this web site and drew a blank.

If anyone knows of places in Charleston please get in touch asap.

Many thanks.
