Throws toys out of the pram about low gates at the part-time club:

Sounds like the 400 or whatever that they budgeted for but didn't turn up were the sensible ones. "Dismal 2-1 defeat to Southport" and a threat from the chairman. That'll bring the crowds flocking.

Not like there are any other professional clubs within an hour's drive either.

He doesn't have a point in my opinion. No one asked him to pile cash in year after year. If it is clear they have a small fanbase and not much potential then it was a silly business decision by him in the first place. Takes more than a loud mouth Swiss Tony to make a successful football club.

You live all the way down there and yes, France, Holland and Germany is an option.

My understanding is that a fair few folk in that area nip across the channel to watch Calais RUFC and have a day/weekend out.

In that part of the world a 1000 or so go over and watch PSG according to a fan I heard in 5live.

They all shop at Carrefour and shrug in an exaggerated manner, I'd heard.
