I've come to actually quite like FGR as a club since we went up and they aren't a direct competitor. I can tolerate Crawley and Fleetwood a bit more now that their money has dried up a bit. Stevenage though? intercourse 'em. Horrible club.
I still don't have a clue what this thread is about; as mentioned, the link doesn't work...... As for your comment on FGR, I'm actually with you. I really don't mind them. The owner has a vision; he might be a bit of a weirdo, and actually not that nice a person, maybe a bit too arrogant, but I have no malice towards them. People hate the fact that FGR is his play thing, but I quite admire his principles and the fact he's trying to take them to another level. How FFP comes into it, I don't know, but there are far more horrible clubs than them.

Quoted Text
Stevenage have been fined £5,000 after admitting a Football Association charge of sexist chanting towards a female official during a home game in March.
About 75-100 home fans chanted for several minutes as fourth official Lisa Rashid replaced an assistant referee midway through their match with Bury.
The League Two game had been chosen as Stevenage's women in football day.
"We will impose significant bans on any supporters found guilty of such behaviour," said chairman Phil Wallace.
"Financial penalties really hurt small clubs like ourselves and this is a real blow to us as we fight financially to build a winning team."
Stevenage breached Football Association rule E20, which states "the club had failed to ensure that its spectators, and all persons purporting to be its supporters or followers, conducted themselves in an orderly fashion and refrained from using abusive and/or insulting words which included a reference, whether express or implied to gender, whilst attending a match in which it was involved".
The Hertfordshire club have also been ordered to implement a 15-point action plan - though the FA concluded they were not at fault for the behaviour, or the way it was dealt with on the day.
The FA say the chanting against Rashid - who assumed assistant refereeing duties around the 18th minute of the game - was "extremely offensive, both blatantly sexist and in vulgar indecent language".

Their home and away strips for the coming season have to be contenders for worst of all time. Being sponsored by Burgerking doesn't help but if you are don't design a shirt that looks like an assistant's in one of your sponsor's restaurants.

Just read the link Les posted above and noticed this.... Stevenage owner Phil Wallace takes pride in "doing things differently" - and having a world-renowned, Champions League-winning former Italy striker oversee the part sale of a club that has a creche on site is certainly that.You have to wonder who if anyone has the job of checking the bras of any women who are breastfeeding their infants?

From Stevenage’s OS (new kit launch)... “Season Ticket Holders can log-into their online account to receive 10% off their order” STHs have an online account. Further proof that we’re living in the Stone Age. Unless things change I think we are in much bigger danger of dropping back in non league. I quite like Stevenage. There I said it. It’s on the east coast main line. It’s a pleasant walk to and from the railway station. And there’s a Nando’s 2 minutes from the station. What more do you want? Ok, maybe a Five Guys too would be nice.

Everyone, there’s no point in forever bearing grudges, it’s just soul destroying. Get over it and move on.
