Hey Alan,
I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here. Is it possible for you to edit your post above and include the FTP access as well?
I need to see why is the script adding the "general" alias to the pagination. It really shouldn't. The URL should just be
http://gooners-website.co.uk/?start=5
By the way, can I also upgrade your instance to the latest version of EasyBlog 5.0.30 ?
