Quoted from MuddyWaters


Without wanting to be unduly negative, I see this article as a fairly honest assessment that we need to dumb down our expectations and that other clubs have got greater resources to get themselves back in the league.


I didn't think the resources of Barrow, Harrogate, and Sutton were greater than those of Wrexham, Stockport, Chesterfield etc. It's the ability to have a united Team that counts, money helps but guarantees nothing.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Agree, I think it just takes longer to get where you want to be and that’s the bit that’s hard to accept for some.

I think he’s telling us there’s no money to strengthen the team, no wonder Hurst looking drunk off.

Historically sent to shareholders and AGM held in November with appropriate notice given first.


I would like to think we are using a new accounting firm now after using a directors former employer for years which would add delay.

Every company public or private must hold at least one AGM in each calendar year.


Private companies don’t have to hold an AGM.

We might still choose to of course.

There’s nothing in the replacement Memo & Arts that requires an AGM.

It would be surprising (pick your own alternative word) if the new owners whose mantra is transparency decided that there was to be no AGM thereby depriving shareholders who still own around 50 percent of the club and most of whom are also fans to ask the usual questions and participate in the business normally undertaken at an AGM.

Absolutely agree with this ...
S&P have just bought a club flat on its Harris after 17 years of mismanagement and zero investment with a decrepit ground and training facilities complete with shitshow of a boardroom
Pitch needed money, ground needed money, training facilities  needed money oh and we had to build a whole new squad!..and now everybody is b!tching because Stockwood has written an article about substantially in non league football clubs.
I'd say he's far more of an idea of what it takes to run a successful business and turning this juggernaut of mess round in a year would be impossible, think it's time to realise it may be a while before we reap the fruits of rewards from the seeds this new board are putting in place

We really do need to put our faith in the new owners. They are open and always ready to talk with anyone. They are new to the job, so we must be understandable with them. The last thing we need to do is to p*ss them off with quick judgement. After all, there is always another *** waiting around the corner... 🙈










'I walked in the dressing room. The window was open and I thought that a sea fret had got in. Then I saw smoke billowing from a pipe in the corner of the room...it was my centre-forward. He looked seven stone wet through. He went on to score thirty-odd goals that season.' Lawrie McMenemy on encountering the legend that was Matt Tees.
