Lovely idea! Let’s let it sink in for a couple of days, maybe people could chip in with suggestions on the form of words?
Sorry I don't post that often and only just saw the Dave connection and what it means. I didn't know Dave, but naming this thread after him will be a wonderful tribute by those who did.
Does this now mean that the demise of one of the regular posters on this message board will now lead to a change of name for this thread rather than a change of manager? We should have some ground rules with regards to these matters.
If you go back to Page 1 of this thread, you’ll see a complete list of all the names it has been known by over the years. In fact the original name was Beefy’s Corner after one of our former members who left a while back. “The Official Off-Topic Chat Thread currently known as "Koeman's Korner" and formerly, Lovren's Lounge. Prior to that, Morgan's Manor. Was known as Banana's Beard Emporium [Adam Lallana had gone Bananas], formerly Shaw's Shack Redemption. Used to be Prowsey's Corner [Taking], and Hooiveld's Hangout. Formerly Guly's Joint Gaff, and was known as Krueger's Korner. Was Liebherr's Corner, formerly Cortese's Corner. The original name of Beefy's Corner, is being replaced on an occasional basis. Next time, who knows..? Could be anyone. Could even be my corner or yours. Has since, indeed, been Les’s Lounge of Loquaciousness, and is now, until the end of the season at least, The Great Escape Café. Latterly Sparky’s Spouting Spa, and briefly, Super Kelv’s Soaring Near-Post Save! And now, Ralph’s Rabbit Hutch.”
One things for sure, you can't please everyone. But as we all get older there will be plenty of opportunities to have the honour.
