Quoted from KingstonMariner


That's the crux of the issue isn't it though.

And yes it is a shite pitch with poor facilities but it's all they have so to say it would be doing football a favour is arrogance of the type we'd hate from bigger clubs fans who we've had abuse from.



sorry but "facilities" like that dont belong in professional football, i am suprised they even pass conference requirements...i dont wish to see them fold as a club and not trying to come over as an arrogant tw@t but having been there, stood on a crumbling terrace with weeds poking through and having to share 2 or 3 portaloos with 500 others then i think it would be doing football a favour if they moved.

It would be great if their facilities were better, but they did well enough on the pitch which is where it counts.

I'd hate to see it if you try  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
