Re: Football Regulator
!. Will this bill get through Parliament and become law before the general election? - it will be a tight squeeze for it to get enough Parliamentary time in both Houses to get Royal Assent before the Election. If not, it will go back to start again under a new Parliament, and is unlikely sadly to be...

Re: The Bottom Seven, Saturday Mar 02nd 2024
Thank you to everyone who has read my writeup, and your replies. I always think this is not my forum or just my post, it's our forum because we all care about the Quakers.

Re: More local competition for good players now at Blyth
I've seen a suggestion that it was £1 with Platten writing off £700,000 loans. It is therefore said to be debt free. There is still no evidence that this new owner has been linked to successful, long-term companies ie not ones that have been dissolved without filing any accounts. The basis for trus...

Re: More local competition for good players now at Blyth
Any idea how much the new owner paid for Blyth? and how much of the existing debt have they had to take over?
Just curious really as to what a club at this sort of level is worth.

Tamworth were mediocre.

The second worst specimen also plays for Tamworth, their long throw specialist. Then there was the...

To quote Jason Ainsley in the piece from the Spennymoor website "I wish him well for the future as he has decided that the travelling is becoming a burden with his promotion at work ." If that is correct, then the travel with Darlington is not going to be much different in the NLN than at Spennymoor

A business is not legally allowed to continue operating if it is insolvent. They don't know where they will be repositioned in the pyramid.

I don't think Spendy are very far away from re-opening their managerial revolving door as well. Not appointed a manager since Chandler resigned.
