Tory MP Nick de Bois, a member* of the Commons Public* Administration Committee, expressed surprise that civil servants had ‘so much time on their hands’ to browse ‘rather bizarre sites’.

Fabulous slogan for the site - stick it up there in the header.

Now that I know civil servants are reading this site it's no more Mr Nice Guy, that's for sure!

Is there some sort of history with Goonersworld?

Or are you all just jealous of their song?

Do they even have a forum?

Their song? Unless they changed it by now (if they´re still online), the one they had in their first days was unbearable. Yeah, all the big names and that, Vieira Vieira, Ray Paala, and that, but please, it makes one mad after a few cycles.

By the way, what´s short for goonersworld?
