When will the new transparent regime tell us what’s going on with the COVID outbreak and whether there is any prospect of us playing this bank holiday weekend ?

I thought this was announced earlier? The thing with transparency is if you don't open your eyes you're still not gonna see anything. They're not gonna come to the fishy and give you a shout out are they?

There is plenty of talk that Saturday is on but in these days of transparency, it does seem rather selective. Why can't they just say how many are positive?

My theory is because it's a high number and goes against the official line of "we are doing everything we can to prevent the spread."

The transparency argument tends to go awry when you have a news blackout for a week.

My apologies for the petulance in my reply. I'm 28 and just assume everyone has social media, which was ignorant at best. My back was up the moment I detected the sarcasm in 'transparent regime'. I think we're best leaving that kind of attitude towards the board behind us, especially at this stage. But opinions differ and so they should.

When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a Valentine
Birthday greetings bottle of wine

Though always reminds me of points of view from years ago


Rose is on fire

And your scotch eggs are fu(king vile

That's the thing, I'm 61 and I don't do Twitter and Facebook or any of the others?

Just "The Fishy" for me, I won't even do online banking, it's just not for me.

Good on you for your reply though.

Yes, we need GTFC to post a news story every day when there is no news just saying "Nothing happened today".

To be fair, if.you had put in your initial post that you don't use Facebook or twitter and haven't seen anything on the club website, the responses may have been less frustrated in tone....

While isnt anything on the official website yet, the club have been promoting Saturday's game on twitter.  You could do worse than getting twitter, multiple updates daily (yesterday tweets about Bromley away, youth team, broadley highlights, allsorts!)
