I know people have stated that travel costs aren't the main concern, but shouldn't the FA have something in place to subsidise travel for clubs at £X/mile. That way each club is on a more even footing, increasing fairness within out game.

Re: Covered seating reminder
So that’s £16 to sit down? Rather steep for this level, not that it effects me with my boycott of anything the rugby club could benefit from (I give money to the club in other ways before someone brings that up). Why would the rugby club benefit from the gate money? The Rugby club benefit financial...

People want it all and they want it now, with minimal effort. Raj knows this. Once he knows what you want he’s able to manipulate you. He has the money to make your wishes come true, you know that and he knows that (but that doesn’t mean he’s going to spend it, irrespective of what you might think)....

Re: Darlington FC v York City FC

Harvey played better than I’ve ever seen. Thommo was much better. The players were asleep as the 2nd ...

Even if the physio and kitman are a part of MGs business it wouldn't be a conflict of interest (IMO) as they are not in a managerial capacity.

Re: Compensation from Gray breaking contract?
I bet the contract doesn't say we would only get a cash settlement if it was a league club. I presume it says if a league club comes along he can leave for £X or the remainder of the contracted payments, whichever is lower. That doesn't mean that if a club in the same league comes along he can walk ...

As for what to do if a player or manager spits their dummy out at not wanting to follow their contract you put them on unpaid gardening leave until they grow some balls.
