I reckon Dianne Abbot could be headhunted do you reckon she could do us a job?




'both the sevens,   thirty six'



'Thanks for your application Ms Abbot, but I do think that Bingo Caller is not really your vocation'


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Oh great,

'So Amber, it would appear that the club will be making several signings in the build up to the next season'



'Really ? I wasn't aware of that, certainly there was no players targeted that I knew of.  I don't have targets' definitely not.

First step will be the retained list, which I guess will be released shortly after the final game.

On the Monday or Tuesday next week I hope.

By this time next week I expect to know who has been retained and who has been offered new contracts.

Oh good. That gives Mr Jolley a timetable to work to. Have you told him yet?

I will type this very slowly as I appreciate you cannot read very fast.

How on earth do you sign players? I would suggest you use the money from season ticket sales, commercial income and EFL distribution.
Signing on fees are paid over the duration of the contract and not in a lump sum on day one.
I maintain that someone has to underwrite the cash flow as John has done to £350k or thereabouts but there are people willing to do that if John is serious about stepping down. Maybe  John is more keen on stepping aside than those who attach themselves to his shirt tails?


Who ? Can you name one ?

Why the secrecy? I'm certainly not mad but as a true town supporter I would like to know who is prepared to financially support the club if JF goes. It's no different to all the posters on here who demand to know everything that goes on at the club, especially at Board level.
