Re: Oldham

Pretty much that the style of football over there is utterly horrid now, and he doesn't engage or really involve himself with the fans at all. Some reservations over his transfers as well I think - strengthening areas which didn't need more bodies while ignoring others that needed sorting. I didn't...

Re: Davey has

I think you find that Chris Lumsdon is under contract as well. Seriously? :shock: If he is back fit he may well be able to do a job in the Conference. However, I would imagine he's on a decent wage and if his injury problems aren't fully behind him he will take up a chunk of the budget that someone...

Re: Davey has

I think White and Miller would be a good partnership in the BSP, and avoids major changes to the CB positions. Yes he will be a year older but it doesn't necessarily mean he will suddenly become slower, he's a professional footballer, and with the right conditioning and pre-season training there is ...

Re: Davey has

I think Whitey has another good season in him especially at BSP level. As for Giddings and Dempsey both seem to have lost interest since SS departed and I would be inclined to release both.

Re: Who do you want to get promoted to the Conference

Workington or Fleetwood from BSN & Bath City from BSS.

Workington or Fleetwood relatively easy to get to. As for Bath City, been before nice place & good for a weekend stop over (not so good if its a middle of winter mid-weeker! :thumbdown: )

Re: serious question

If it ever happened then I would have no problem with us being in it, we have as much right to play in the top division as are the likes of Burnley, Blackburn, Liverpool etc., so long as its all done without having to put the club finances in jeopardy just to reach it.

I'll definitely get one next season - have the club released a sample of the away kit yet, as they did with the home kit the other week?

Probably the part time supporters they've picked up since their promotion to the PL - I know the scoreline isn't great but a great example of part time supporters mind - should be grateful for being in the PL in the first place!! :crazy:
