Re: Boost the Budget

After 160k wasted I’m against and mid season btb, sorry if this offends the masses but it’s a no from me. Doesn’t offend me. I agree with you. Doesn’t offend me either but at the same time the decision on whether or not to make a further contribution is clearly a personal one for each of us and I w...

Re: Good luck Steve Watson

An excellent result and something of a relief to have this done and dusted.
We all need to support him, the club and the team now as best we can.

Re: Who next?

For me Gray hasn’t split the fan base, it is already divided, and has been for a long time. There are those who passionately believe that the club must remain fan owned to maintain financial integrity and protect the long term future. Then there are others who have grown impatient with the stagnati...

Re: Who next?

MG is saying all the right things but probably the best route would have been talking to the board behind the scenes.

In my opinion, and that's all it is, maybe something like this: The Board for some time have realised that the young, enthusiastic upbeat Josh Gowling was out of his depth. His appointment hadn't seen much of an increase of good fortune, no new manager lift, and was clearly begining to split the fa...

There are also a tranche of supporters using Gowling's poor start to push an agenda against David Johnson and The Board. I would be far more worried about them declaring they'd had enough than losing a few games.
Absolutely right.

Everyond did their bit earlier in the year, but for those who can afford to chuck some more money in, set it up and let us contribute. We are the owners after all, and JG needs some new players. I'll be in for £100 as I don't want us relegated. It is well worth the effort. If we did have the mythic...

Re: Engage with the Football Club Board event this Wed. @7.00pm

What I saw was an extremely competent set of individuals running the Club. I doubt if there will be a better array of talent to operate a £0.75m turnover business anywhere in the UK. And with a salary bill of £0, nil. They do it for no financial gain, so one hopes there is a level of pleasure and s...

Re: Scarborough Fa Cup

There's a lot of unnecessary bollocks floating around at present. Football clubs have ups and downs. At present we're having a down. We should all get behind Josh and trust him to implement a plan that starts to move us up the table. Instead of bickering, whinging and moaning. Exactly right.
