But of a gamble isn't it, spending money we might not have, on a promise. I'm assuming this will have been spoken about between the board and Garlick - I'd understand if he didn't want to, but it would be nice if he gifted the club a bit of dough in the meantime

Shade

So, if what I've looked up is correct, assuming that the period of exclusivity began on Saturday when we were told about it, and assuming Mike Garlick decides to proceed, the sale could be signed, sealed and delivered anywhere between 14th July and 15th September. The shortest period for the period ...

I have to agree. I liked Tom. A lot. But is he really good enough to have got us challenging for promotion to L1 again? He was solid-ish. His pace is next to none. He scored just a couple of goals from set pieces. Nice guy, but in all honesty we need better for the first team and if he doesn't want ...

Very promising. His net worth appears to be around £60m, from what I could see, so don't expect him to be funding a new main stand out of his own pockets. That figure seems old, the latest I can find is £93million net worth from earlier this year. Well off but not excessively rich to the extent he ...

When you can get pint bottles of decent beer for £1 in the supermarket, no pint in the pub should ever be more than £3. ….and which supermarket would that be please? Aldi. Lots of good stuff, 99p to £1.50, including Hobgoblin, Proper Job, and "Old Session Hen"/various Hen...variations.

Be better if we took it over and just leased it out so it can stay as it, I'd have thought.

Tom Pett signs on permanently for Oldham. Judging by the reaction of the Oldham fans, he impressed while on loan last season. Quality player on his day - I still think of his first half display against Reading in L2 where we chucked a 2-goal lead, as one of the best individual performances I've see...

Isn’t he now reform MP for Great Yarmouth? Hopefully he’s too busy shouting at small boats to get involved with us. Ex-Reform. They kicked him out and tried to get him arrested with false allegations that he'd threatened Zia Yusuf, all because he didn't toe Farage's line (police found no evidence, ...

Just a little housekeeping - you've got Tilt as leaving Salford for Salford on your list.

"UK-based investor who's got a lot of experience within high level football" - doesn't sound like Seppala to me. I personally wouldn't say she was involved in high-level football or has a lot of experience, even if she was part of the ownership at Coventry for 15 years. Unless that senten...

The likes of Harrogate is extremely disrespectful.

If a Harrogate fan mentions anything, I'll think about caring.

(That's not supposed to sound quite as confrontational as it reads, btw!)

Shade

f#!$ hell. You know we're not looking in good shape when we're losing players to bloody Harrogate. Assume he prefers it up north having been at York and Halifax before.

Shade

10 years?! I thought he'd been in the job for 20. Oh well, assume he's going to be getting more money. DC obviously liked him and poached him I assume.

Shade

I used to pay for Sky and BT Sport, £100-odd a month. And occasionally for Eurosport or whatever for things like Le Mans. Now I think the only sport I pay for (and occasionally watch) on a streamer is the Champions League Tuesday night game on Prime and MLB on Apple, and I'll only ever watch that if...

Shade

Just out of curiosity, do you pay for any other sports subscriptions, either short or long term?

Nothing but positive comments

It could definitely be built on/over - it will just cost a lot of extra money to do so, planning, building foundations, supports, etc.

Shade

Nice work. As an average, that's quite a considerable drop considering only 5/23 other teams have changed.

Scumbag champagne socialist.

Kind of linked (kind of). Since the news splash last year about cakebridge being free to use. Has anything happened in that area? It was covered at the last meeting. From memory, as it's on a fairly short-term lease (for now), it's not in the clubs interests to spend a load of money putting tarmac ...

My criticism of the board is well documented and I believe it to be balanced Horlick, appreciate you are oblivious to the reasons why and firmly believe that all is perfect with the board so I'm not sure I see any value is going around in circles. I am fully aware that your criticism of the Board i...

1700+ sold as of a few hours ago. I believe that beats last season's early bird total.

Shade

Because he wants to be one of the lads and get involved? To even numbers up? I very much doubt it was on purpose...just another Lee Johnson f#!$ up.

Shade

I'm still fascinated by the support he received from the fanbase though. Agree with this Si, especially when you compare it to the stick George Miller got last season when he scored 11 goals and was our top scorer! I may be repeating myself here, but Keena's connection with the fanbase can be trace...

Shade

It’s highly questionable that a side finishing 5th, 6th or 7th gets promoted into the Football League when the side finishing 2nd with 96 points has a bad day at the office and misses out altogether. Perhaps there needs to be a rethink. It used to be that the side that finished top had to be electe...

More unsubstantiated nonsense claims. Low offers have been turned down. Alfie is the only player bigger clubs have wanted that we've let go for less than we should have, but we got part of his value back with his goals that kept us up Jan-May. Ppl on Facebook slagging the club off because we have re...

Cue the bidding war (we hope).

That was their relegation season, and our league title season, surely?

Crewe showing an incredible early lack of ambition by signing Josh March.

An i Paper journalist who has been to every football league and PL stadium this last season has ranked them, and put WR 77th, above the likes of Oxford, Swindon, Reading, Leicester, and West Ham's London Stadium. Colchester's was 92nd. The reason for WR being low was the facilities being cramped and...

Shade

So nothing has changed then, as it was unlikely at the end of the season as well.

As I mentioned months ago, I get them on all devices but it's worst on my android phone using chrome.
