Re: Robins Trust Email - Cheltenham Town: Building for the Future
The forum was a while ago so unless my memory is worse than I already know didn't Dave Bloxham say that the council view The Completely Suzuki Stadium, Cakebridge Place and Parklands as essentially one piece of real estate that they own. So I'm just musing that maybe the council have a master plan o...

Maybe, it will also make clubs think harder about the value of having modern LED pitchside advertising systems which many on here have suggested in the past.

Just had a proper "wait, what?!" moment. Apparently Jermaine McGlashan has won the first promotion of his managerial career, taking Croydon up via the play-offs. As surprising as it is that McGlashan has gone into management, (to me, he didn't seem like the type of player that usually bec...

I don’t understand why the 3pm blackout doesn’t continue just for Premier League games and lifted for leagues below, at least from One and Two.

Good news on those two. If we can get them to sign quickly along with Pett seemingly staying on, that would give us a pretty solid nucleus of a squad to tackle League 2 next season. Also interesting that DC is still very much leading this process so perhaps talk of him walking away are a little pre...
