Anyone know when TWTD first appeared online ? I’m sure I remember checking it out sometime around 1997 or am I misremembering?

Pretty sure I was regularly online there by 1999, are any posters still using their user name from the first ever sign up ?

I’m sure Phil or Gav can fill in the gaps ?

I was quite a late arrival, being first shown the site by my brother in probably around '04 or '05. But I have managed to keep the same username throughout.

The timeline of TWTD online is in the About Us tab at the bottom of the page.

ketton_itfc

I've been on since 98 just before the world cup and I remember my first comment was about Kieran Dyer should be in the England WC squad. I was formerly sandy_itfc until about 10 years. I'm hoping at some point that Phil and Gav will change to These Are The Days for a
spell again.

I was around when you didn’t have a fixed username, so could be anything every time you logged on, but can’t remember the year… I then had a previous username before becoming hopes_and_fears which eventually got shortened to hoppy

I was around in 97. No idea what I called myself then.

Fixed_It

I've been here far too long - probably since about 2002. I was originally Northants_Blueboy, but became Fixed_It in the Jim Magilton managerial era. Jim'll Fix It - geddit? Should probably have changed my username when that show became somewhat tarnished, but never got round to it. Maybe I should.

It was during the 2000-01 season I popped up on here as that was when I finally got internet! Think it would've been rivals at that point?

I registered on it very early, around 1999 maybe?, but didn’t post for many years. I’ve never changed the user name. even though I don’t like it much. I really can’t be bothered and only chose it because that was the stand I spent the most time in and the nearest I get to a church is a pint in the dog and duck.

I started out as "NormanEshleyBlue", before becoming TheBlueGnu circa 2023. It was during watching an episode of Emmerdale (previously known as Emmerdale Farm) when I had the inspiration to become TheBlueGnu.

SomethingBlue

My first post - using just my initials back then – was in August 1996 the day after John Wark's testimonial. My innocent 13-year-old self likened Bobby Petta to Georgi Kinkladze on the back of his performance in the game. I remember asking my dad if it was ok to write a message on the board. Here we are 28 years later!

You are right. It did slow up when America woke up! I bought a home computer in 98 as I was looking for a job and wanted to learn IT. A friend of Mrs C put it all together at a cost of £1500, including printer. It was obvious even then what the possibilities were.

….where your username came from Ryorry.

Assumed it was some sort of obscure Nordic/Jorvik reference.

Disappointingly mundane really.

I reckon the “R” is for Rosemary.

Or Rita.
