There have been a few complaints on the BBS (mainly from people excommunicated from here) about the right wing bias" here but the truth is that the News / Politics forum contains probably less than 2% of the total threads and I'd guess that the vast majority of HOL members never go there at all. There is probably just half a dozen politics threads active in the last week with the same dozen forum members going at it hammer and tongs but a handful of forum members constantly arguing about politics in the politics forum hardly counts as the HOL identity as the remaining 98% of forum members are here to discuss football and only football I think its a bit dramatic to say hol is ‘a bastion of all things right wing.’ I am certainly not right wing, I’m not a communist either, I use this site because I support Palace and I find it quicker to browse and I always have. I’ve been on this site for over ten years and have seen a few embarrassing threads/ remarks but nothing ‘regular’. I don’t share the politics of many of the users that post in that section so I choose not to engage, if that’s the reason for the split then it’s a bit disappointing.

Sad to hear the news. Always liked to listen to Hambo, Jel, Nick, Patrick and the rest on a Sunday night.

If a podcast is going to specifically name itself after a website then a regular connection to the site makes sense. This was obviously true at the beginning but over time less so. So if this is a rebranding I just think that it's sensible. I remember saying that they should rebrand quite a while ago and really if this is what they are doing then great. Perhaps at some point we will have a Hol football podcast that is actually made by regular Hol contributors to the site. The political affiliations shouldn't be here or there. Hol is primarily a football site and the political section is really a side section as you would expect. I think it's a shame that the political section is seen as being 'owned' by a side: it's a half truth. Both bbs and Hol have diverse political commentary. People are free as individuals as too what site they frequent and I don't hear the same people complaining about Hol saying that the bbs is too left wing.

For the record: - no falling out with Holmesdale.net - nothing to do with Nick being banned (in his own words, he had it coming) - nothing political We just want to be in control of our own destiny. Whilst Holmesdale.net has let us just get on with it mostly, we think a clean break will enable us to reach a wider audience. We will continue to link this site and discuss topics that pop up on here,. It’s more than renaming/rebranding.

It would have been a bit crazy to carry on as HOL Radio but to have presenters keep slagging off the HOL on the BBS. I liked the early days when it felt like it was part of the HOL. Had 1 or 2 of my comments read out from the chat room which would run alongside the broadcast. I did suggest a 'Desert Island Discs' type feature where interviews with HOL regulars could be recorded - How they got into Palace, 1st match, favourite ever player etc. and was prepared to get involved - but got brushed aside as the podcast grew. Hambo did take the time to explain that it had snowballed much more than expected but I think they missed a trick by not including the HOL regulars more and having a set of regular features. (i.e I would have made a fannytastic presenter and am still slightly bitter). The highlight for me was the Brighty interview. They just let him speak and he was pure gold - could have gone on for a couple more hours. The Parish interview was too nicey nicey but again Hambo said if he had wound him up then he probably wouldn't have returned... so what do you do? It did make painful listening though I'm afraid. I'm not sure who anyone is on it anymore and if Jel and Gussett are involved. Jel was always a goody. I wish anyone luck who's trying to engage with Palace fans but I was put off by HOL radio when, to me, it felt like an ego trip for some rather than something that could have been much more engaging. You fed me, you bred me, I'll remember your name.
