Existem subs para todos os 12 grandes, mas somente cinco deles apresentaram alguma atividade nos últimos 30 dias. Veja abaixo a lista completa (atualizada às 19h42 de 24/10/2016).
Clube | Subreddit | Último Post | Data | Notas |
---|---|---|---|---|
Atlético Mineiro | /r/Galo | Torcida e imprensa derrubaram o técnico Aguirre de maneira injusta http://leituradojogo.com.br/analise-do-trabalho-do-aguirre/ — /u/Gmg1607 | 151 dias atrás | Moderação inativa. |
Botafogo | /r/botafogo | Match Thread: Botafogo vs Fluminense, 23ª Rodada do Brasileirão de 2016 — /u/CruzeiroDoSul | 047 dias atrás | O último post foi um link para uma match thread minha, o penúltimo foi um link de um spammer de vídeo. O último post "autêntico" de um botafoguense foi postado há mais de onze meses. Moderador não apresentou atividade nos últimos oito meses. |
Corinthians | /r/Corinthians | Naming Rights — /u/zoloftus | 024 dias atrás | Moderado pelo /u/Morazan1823, que também é mod aqui. |
Cruzeiro | /r/Cruzeiro | Cruzeiro 1x1 Atlético-MG - 18/09/2016 — /u/camponez | 035 dias atrás | O sub é composto quase que inteiramente por posts do moderador, que parou de postar há um mês. |
Flamengo | /r/Flamengo | Match Thread: Flamengo vs Corinthians — /u/MatchThreadder | 001 dia atrás | Recebeu uma repaginada recente pelo /u/LiveLaden e tem uma atividade constante. |

Grêmio | /r/gremio | Goleiro Bruno Grassi vira destaque nacional por lance contra o Santos — /u/tsprado | 005 dias atrás | Mantido primariamente pelo OP do último post. Moderação inativa. |
Internacional | /r/internacional | El hiyab ni es su cultura ni es su religión. — /u/maquilon | 034 dias atrás | De longe o mais abandonado. Embora seja dedicado ao time (vide o escudo do clube no header), não tem uma única publicação relacionada a futebol. |
Palmeiras | /r/palmeiras | Match Thread: Palmeiras vs Grêmio — /u/MatchThreadder | 004 dias atrás | Recebe updates periódicos com /u/tunehunter, /u/momarquinho e o mod, /u/cinza. |
Santos | /r/SantosFC | Match Thread: Santos vs São Paulo [Copa do Brasil] • /r/soccer — /u/Morazan1823 | 362 dias atrás | O que está a mais tempo parado. Último post publicado por um dos moderadores daqui. |
São Paulo | /r/SPFC | São Paulo recebe Trujillanos atrás de vitória para respirar na Libertadores - /r/futebol — /u/Morazan1823 | 202 dias atrás | Tinha recebido uma repaginada há alguns meses, mas parece que o mod cansou. |
Vasco da Gama | /r/vasco | Yago Pikachu faz exames e vai assinar por três anos com o Vasco (x- /r/futebol) | 313 dias atrás | Sem atividade do moderador há mais de um ano. |
Se você pretende gerir o sub do seu time, você possui duas opções.
Criar um novo
Se a sua conta tem ao menos 30 dias e um número mínimo de karma, você pode criar um novo subreddit para o seu time. Não é nada difícil de geri-lo e mantê-lo ativo. Pra ter algum alcance, não se esqueça de avisar o pessoal do /r/futebol e do /r/soccer.
Tomar o antigo
Se a conta do moderador do sub já existente está inativa há mais de sessenta dias, você pode requisitar a posse dele para os admins do Reddit no /r/redditrequest. Os pré-requisitos são mais duros: a sua conta precisa ter 90 dias e 500 pontos de karma, e os admins dão um tempo razoavelmente longo de espera para o moderador atual do sub se manifestar. De novo, não se esqueça de avisar o pessoal do /r/futebol e do /r/soccer.
