First of all congratulations on a nice site. I have a few pointers that should make your look and do a bit better:

You need a homepage! You could put on there:
- some news about the site
- some news about the team
- latest forum posts
- most active forum posts
There isn't any point of having space for sponsors if you haven't got any.
You have to much info on your main forum, you should get rid of some of the bits that are down the sides, decide what you really need.
You should consider changing you forum skin a bit to make it a bit easier to read. eg. different color on each row of the main forum table.
You may want to consider making even less of the features (eg, calender, betting) available to none members.

I hope you find those points helpful.

I like it especially the fact that its now swamped in flashing adverts

I thought about making some football related backgrounds for my business card site, then maybe we could exchange links?

get a Manchester UTD "red card" =) I don't know where I would find and football club logo's though.

Thanks for your comments!! I already have a homepage which is the one with all the features on it.. I assume you mean to ditch this and create a new one that isnt using VBA!!

I noticed you had a homepage just after I clicked submit. But the problem was that when I clicked home it took me to a different page?

You also need to simplify your homepage that you currently have.
