New FcUK Site build.

We�re in the process of redesigning the FcUK Site and in this process I have migrated the whole site/forum database over to phpBB3 with no data lose ;) and made the built in phpbb2 forum inactive.

So for now all this will mean to you is if you do sign into the main site and click on Forums you will need to login again into the forum to view and post on the new phpBB3 Forum which come soon we will migrate that into the new CMS.

Any issues please let me know.

Thanks
