Re: Northern Premier League Announcements

So I am hearing that at a meeting yesterday clubs were told FA putting a new rule that if you refuse promotion you will be automatically relegated by the FA moving forwards. I assume this applies to Step 5 and the Northern League. I do wonder if that will start to reduce the inflated salaries in th...

Re: New stand now under construction

I think that the temporary seats should be priced up to be moved, after all we did pay for them and the whole idea IIRC was to improve the view/experience whilst we were at Heritage Park. It's an asset that we own, sat at another ground. Even if it costs a fortune, it's surely worth putting the fee...

Re: Clock's ticking for Spendy

one reason for sure why people don't attend is there is no (regular) shuttle bus service to and from Blackwell lets say 1 hour before and 1 hour after the match and on a cold day its a fair hike for some people who just choose to stay in the pub and have a pint where its warm. You can also add to t...

Re: Striker option

It is quite clear we are lacking in this area, Styche aside. Maybe it's worth offering Steven Rigg formerly of Penrith and Carlisle Utd a trial or short term contract? Yes injuries have prevented him from playing regularly recently but was pretty prolific in non-league? I believe he is unattached s...

Re: Brad Gascoigne

It was the Nuneaton fans who first said they had heard Gascoigne would be reunited with TW and then had their say on his merits or otherwise. Maybe it won't happen but it's a legitimate matter for discussion when fans of another club suggest we are going to sign a player. I don't think their fans h...

Apparently they borrowed Dagenham's training gear on the weekend and had to wear their away kit because the home one and the training gear is being held by the laundrette until they pay them their unpaid bill.
