Post by Guest Tue Apr 19, 2011 10:16 pm

Afternoon Everyone,

Just to make those of you who still post over the road aware...

606 closure date annouced.

The 606 website will shut down on 26th May 2011 - the shut down came about in order to focus audience's attention interactivity by capturing the conversation around the biggest sports stories and events via different mediums. We would like to thank the current 606 users for all their posts and comments over the years. It is worth stressing that the 606 radio show on 5 Live will continue - and we are considering ways for the audience to interact with 606 on the 5 Live website, focused around the radio programme.

Cheers for that, KB. Suppose I'll have to drag myself back over there to have a last look at some of my favourite articles, so thanks for the heads up.

Nice to see our petitions worked haha

I was thinking about joining BBC 606, but then it was announced it was closing. Came on here, and saw how much better it was anyway, with games and quizzes, so joined up. It also seems much friendlier too. Very Happy

I'm just glad the 2 worst posters on the boxing board, shantel & fight news, have either been already banned or can't make it over.

Much better quality than the old board, which wasn't hard with the likes of shah, fn, shantel, fedor and a few others "posting"

I find it hilarious that 606 has been taken over by the Wums,
all spouting rubbish and trying to appear knowledgeable Whistle

The sooner they close it down the better !

I'm glad you chose to join us on here, racingnut : )

We've got a really nice racing community on here.....it's very friendly and we have some really knowledgeable posters.

I would love to see more of the good posters, still on 606 racing forum, joining us after the closure date.

I haven't logged in to 606 for weeks........I might go over there on the last day to advertise my wares lol

Is that a definite official date? I've been hearing that they will keep a sports forum page open, only one mind that can discuss various topics, that could stop people from deflecting full time on here

Was always going to go through, sad to say!

Strange choice of date though ..... 26th May 2011?

Two days before Wembley hosts the Champions League Final, and 4 days before the Championship play-off. Doh
.... not forgetting the other 2 League play-offs, now at Old Trafford on 28/29th

Could understand a closure date just, say, 24 hours after a season-ending pick of fixture, but not 48 hours before several. DoubleDoh

I wonder if the closing date should really be the 29th (day after Champions League Final)

I never found anything official but 29th would probably make more sense
