Re: Darlo v Boston Match Thread
The other issue is the length of time it took for the ambulance to arrive to an unconscious patient with breathing problems. I know we live in difficult times but that is unacceptable. Whilst we can agree that this was a long time to wait, but you've got to remember the current climate we are livin...

Yep. Still feels like a lot of balls to juggle...it was a holding statement from the NL on the day they were due to make a decision so who knows what next. It's a holding statement as they are trying to work out how the season will pan out in a hurry. And given that most clubs will be bankrupt if t...

Does anyone know if this has any implications (financial or otherwise) for our agreement to play at BM? Darlington Rugby Club don't seem to have made any comment.

Re: Bury FC fan - in need of some advice
We had no alternative but to rally round the reformed club there was no option for us. Along with many others I was not sure if the affinity with the club would still be there and it only came with attending matches.

Everything is OK.

What could possibly go wrong?, apart fr...

Re: October 3rd
Well at the moment we only have 43 teams between North and South. Now they don’t look like promoting a team from Step 3 so we are short. If Bury get dropped in North Division then we will have 44 teams and 22 for each, of which Brackley or Gloucester would move South. If Bury aren’t dropped into us...

Re: Raj Singh
Raising 80k in a fortnight is a brilliant effort from the fans there is no question. However it would take a lot more than that to sustain a club in the Football League. The fan ownership model is fine at this level but if we are ever to move up the pyramid I just don’t see it would be enough. Righ...

Fixtures and fittings within the ground may be owned by the council.
