New Direction?

Quoted from ginnywings

Direction?

Their words said Championship in 5 years. Their actions equal non league...again.

It doesn't just happen because you say it, or you think it, or you would like it to be. The words have to be backed with action. They never are.

We can only hope that the new owners don't promise us outlandish progress, but that what they do offer, they actually strive to achieve. That'll do for me.

Oh that's a bit harsh Ginny, the only reasons we arent in the new ground and in the championship already is due to total lack of funds, the council not gifting us the land to build on, lack of partners to take forward the peakeds parkway site, lack of housing site planning and demand, appointing completely inexperienced consultants with a track record of fking zero to lead the project, lack of funds, ..oh I said that already, the site being completely unsuitable really and even if all that existed a complete lack of understanding of how long such a project would actually take. .....so c'mon..... who could have foreseen that statement wouldnt have become reality ??

You've missed out a deluded chairman who overpromised and underdelivered and who may have been viewing it as an opportunity to personally gain rather than move the club forward.

It's amazing it's never happened....

Slade IN.

I was thinking that.

What worries me about next season is that the standard in L2 has been so bad that the whole bottom half is probably worse than the entire top half of the National League.

I reckon each of the top 10 teams in the NL could’ve held their own in L2 this season. If we play like we’ve played this season we’d be closer to the bottom four in the NL than the playoffs for sure.

You’ve got a whole list of fully professional and ex-league clubs queuing up to get out of there. There’s a backlog and we’re gonna be just another one to add to the list. We all know how difficult a league it is to get out of; next season could be a testing one even with new owners.

But let’s try and use that time to get our club back in our hearts off the pitch, and hopefully success on the pitch will soon follow.

I think you could be right Rich. We need to go down there with positivity but not with complacency.

Surely the fans and the club won’t be arrogant this time and dismiss it as a pub league?

Ha ha ha - a lot on here still do. Expressions s like "The Dog and Duck" demonstrate that.

A mate self-publishes football history books under that name. He’s a Town fan. But I think he was using that name before 2010.

New direction?

How about UP?
