Re: Jason Ainsley
I thnk eventually he could well have to look at building a new ground as well as going completely full time. From what I have heard the Brewery Field could never pass the requirements needed for league football due to its location and lack of parking. Not so sure, forest greens ground had bugger al...

Re: Jason Ainsley
Sam Collins might fancy another crack at management I believe Evenwood Utd will have plenty of applicants with Football league experience, a good chairman who still has cash to splash and a large squad why would you not want to get involved. No one really local springs to mind unless brad will cast...

Re: Jason Ainsley
Never saw this comeing. Now if they are going full time then ainsley could not have committed to a full time managerial role and someone else would have been needed but surely the team are not suddenly turning pro part way through the season. A part time to full time transition normally occurs befor...

Re: SEASON POSTPONED?
Some valid points particularly about pubs: -Im really sick of hearing “we can sit in a packed pub but not go to football”. What packed pubs?

Re: Macclesfield Town
Really sad and terrible timing as I assume they're now too late to compete at any level this season as a phoenix club. I really wish the FA would try and be understanding regarding phoenix clubs. It's bad enough clubs going pop, but it is a reality. This is Bury all over again, who had to sit out a...

Re: Macclesfield Town
£340k of the debt was owed to two individuals a lender and their ex-manager (John Askey) and then a further £190k to HMRC. I thought Sol Campbell also say he didn't ever get paid his salary from them - that doesn't appear to be true based on report. You wonder what the situation was with Askey base...

Re: Macclesfield Town
Cant believe a ex manager is owed Nearly as much as the tax man. Was he on premier league wages or summat. Enjoyed my visit there when they won the national league. Is 500k really alot for a club to go under these days even in the national league

Re: Ground share
From what i gather the rules out today on crowd restrictions are just for step 3 and below which would be ok for the bulk of clubs at that level but not for step 2 and above, lets hope common sense prevails for above step 3

Re: Who will follow Wigan Athletic into administration?
Charlton could be chucked out of the efl if they are not taken over within the next month or so. The owners have failed the fit and proper test, so if they failed how were they allowed to take over in the 1st place? https://talksport.com/football/efl/743108/charlton-future-in-doubt-as-three-individu...

Re: Playoffs
With TV money and the backing of Mr Weaver I am sure they will be fine. Crowds may not exceed 2000 if fans are allowed but look at Accrington. Harrogate are going to share with Donny Rovers, 45 miles away, until the plaggy pitch is replaced, so gates of 2000 might be a tad optimistic. According to ...

Re: Increasingly unlikely playoffs
Would be a bonus if Boston Utd went up through the play-offs as it is like King's Lynn, a helluva way to go for an away game. Equally, Brackley would not be a great loss, although quite a few Darlo exiles in the South do make it to that fixture. Thought Chester were against play-offs due to the cos...

Re: Increasingly unlikely playoffs
At this level I think a lot of players are on 52 week contracts ( even part time players) but this varies by club. How many is a lot. I suspect the vast majority are on 40 weeks contracts (which is why at this level you do see many players announced in May / June time). Rather than 1st July which i...

Re: Darlington Formed 2012
No, your opinions are not facts. One thing I DO agree with you, is yes, we may as well have been liquidated like Halifax, Chester, Hereford, for all the good that remaining the same club did us. The reason that the FA didn't give us a heavy points deduction like they did with Bournemouth, Leeds and...
