Re: One Member One Vote

Finally the FA still need to ratify the deal, I know of at least 2 creditors who have written to the FSA/FA expressing their anger at the deal. So if I were 1883, I Wouldn't be celebrating just yet! The creditors would have got nothing from the CVA because Raj would have blocked it. In fact, aren't...

Re: Potential signings for Evo-Stik Division 1 North

I always enjoy these Football Manager Transfer Market search threads. I didn't find them on Football Manager.

Re: Dereck Chisora vs David Haye II?

It'll be the biggest anti-climax in boxing history. They're two overrated gobshites and neither will want to lose, so we'll see both them walk around the ring, prodding punches at each other.

Plus the pre-fight build up would be just plain cringeworthy.

Re: Before we dive head first into the Rugby Club share.

People will travel anywhere so long as the product is good enough. If Darlo are winning and doing well, plenty of people will travel to Blackwell Meadows, if of course that is the route we take.

Re: EVERBODY JUST CALM THE F*CK DOWN!!!!!!!

I'm willing to wait to see EXACTLY what the final plans are. The 1883 have been quite good explaining decisions up until this point and I believe they'll do so again.

Until we know precisely the finer details of the stadium move, ranting and raving won't do much good.

Re: FA Approach Roy Hodgson

The FA can't win whoever they appoint. People would criticise whoever is the new manager, such is the apathy around the current England team.

If Hodgson gets it, he'd well advised to completely ignore the press. He's only going to get shite thrown at him anyway.

Re: Now the season is done-how do we feel about the players?

I completely disagree with this vilifying of the players who left. When most of our players left, our future wasn't secure. They didn't know they were going to get paid and hadn't been paid for a couple of months. They had families to uphold, mortgages to pay and all the rest. If I was working for a...

I think Graeme Lee would be a risky appointment as manager. I doubt if he'd play, unless we had an emergency. Yes I believe he has got his coaching badges, but he has no experience as a manager and that could be a big handicap. We need to hit the ground running next season whatever division we end ...
