The reality is we go down sell a lot less season tickets have a small budget for next season, what happens next is anyone’s guess.

Reality ! Well for a start there are far too many on here with delusions of grandeur regarding GTFC. There is no point in living in the past ,whether up or down the divisions.We can all blame the directors or management but the reality is the players that we have are not performing to a standard that is satisfying to watch or produce the expected results .The standard of football in our league,as I have said in previous posts,is atrocious whereas I believe we often watched more entertaining matches in the Conference.Unfortunately the status of being in a lower league really offends those who believe we should be high flying. The reality is that we are a small town with a low catchment area and very limited on investment both on and off the field. For the sake of local moral I do hope we stay up but it's not the end of the world in reality.

Bigger than many above us in the League.

And why do we have players who are not performing? Why can we not compete with smaller towns that aren't bankrolled by sugar daddies?


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.
