As some of you may or may not
know, we used to do a website called the Baseball Bat Fanzine. This
was moderately popular and ran for 6 years.
At the end of season 2005/2006, we felt BBF had run it's course and
decided to do something different.
The whole concept of BBF was that it was a fanzine online. That
meant that rather than update the site slightly on an ongoing basis,
we updated
the whole thing every 2 months. This worked well for a long time
but, in the ever changing world of DCFC, it made it difficult to
keep the site relevant and it also put a lot of pressure on us to
meet deadlines for new updates. Thus we sacked it.
If you are looking for DCFC news or match reports, this isn't the
site for you. You can get that from DET, BBC or Sky. What we do is
basically post (hopefully) amusing articles and commentary on DCFC
as and when we get a decent idea or have something to talk about.
Ramspace (a play on MySpace if you
didn't realise - which we are also on at
www.myspace.com/journalsofderventio
) takes the best bits of BBF
plus
some new things like Derventio Journals & Jukebox. We've always
tried to keep the embers of football / music culture burning and our
jukebox will have a combination of new releases and some classics
for your to enjoy. Minimise it and let it roll!.
We will slightly update Ramspace all the time, as
apposed to the aforementioned mass update every two months. A bit
like Ramzone, but
interesting and funny.
You'll see on the homepage you can subscribe to
Ramspace. All this means is that once a month or so, you'll get an
email telling you all the stuff we've posted in the last month or
so. You won't get any spam and we won't be sharing your details with
anyone else.
We also have a link to a forum. This
is something we've always fancied doing but frankly don't have the
time or inclination to police it. Thus we've teamed up with our
mates at the Sheep Shag Army and just link through to them. If
you're not aware of this forum already, we're confident you'll enjoy
it and are pleased to point you in their direction.
Feel free to email us any any comments or suggestions.
Cheers
C Spaceram.
