Not at all, just i believe i was good enough for the cut, id never give up on something i believed in, and you wouldn't understand if we asked for the littlest of things it wouldn't happen. Spoke to alot of people and at the end of the day if your not enjoying your football then something isn't right.


Got to agree with you.

And a good reply to someone questioning your motives.

Good luck in whatever path you take.....and go and enjoy your football.

The Town under 10's beat Lincoln 10-2 last week , they are in a far worse state due to parents having to fork out £400 on kit so therefore Town faced not the  best Lincoln team - just the kids whose parents could afford it.I hope it doesnt get to this for Town but money is very tight now we no longer get full league funding.

Why on earth would a youngster who is a decent player want to be a YT at a non-league club?

Not that dapperz, i love the club with all my heart unlike most lads in the modern age supporting United, Chelsea whoever it is i had my heart set on playing for the club as i've followed the team since my grandad took me from the age of 6. But like i said i got treated like dirt and didn't enjoy it. Still follow the town though

Losing youngsters to league club SoEs is the price you pay for letting the club fester and drop out of the league. There's no answer to it except to get back up there.

I run a kids team and have had the same lads since thet were 5yrs old. They are now u14 we are a very good side and have shared the league and cup with another side yr after yr. Not once has a scout been down to watch us not once!! I know for a fact i have better players than play with the u14 gtfc side and indeed saw 1st hand their 1st game of the season v lincoln when we had 10 and lincoln bare 11!!! What a mess for that to happen it simply shouldnt,i cannot work out for the world of me why they havent been down to see us surely someone keeps a eye on local leagues and when you see a side scoring 150 plus goals every yr and letting in less than 10 you perhaps would think mmmmm reckon they might have some decent lads???? The question is though would any of my boys go there?? maybe but am certainly not 100% sure they would.
