Quoted from moosey_club

mower sounds replaced by door activation alarms

still no season ticket prices announced

no new players in

Virtually no hard information at all in that message.



So you'd rather have Fenty talking b@llox next to his snooker table would you?..
20% discount on season ticket prices, looking after shift workers, NHS staff and armed forces ..
As for new players, were 1 week into the end of our season, NL yet to finish and any negotiations will have only just started, patience is a virtue as they say

"virtually" none i said....they said there would be a discount for existing ST's over a week ago , so while the 20% is news the discount isnt.....also with no figures to actually work with then .... 20% off what amount ?

Different atmosphere of presentation and interview granted but as i said not alot of actual discernable content to it.

So when you (an anonymous bloke* on a messsge board) say it it’s news, but when the club say it, it’s not news.

* that’s the polite version. The unedited version was ‘nonentity’. Fortunately I wasn’t that rude.


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.

With the National League games still on, it wouldn't be a surprise to me to find Hurst and others scouting the opposition in advance of next season and looking at prospects.

He certainly won't announce anyone until the ink is dry !!

The bit I liked was that he spoke about his discussions with Hurst but rather than take any glory from it, he's left it for Hurst to talk about.

Be careful you Grimbo lads.
I only started posting on here to sympathise with you but I have followed this forum ever since I worked over there.
Last year I was surprised at how excited the majority of you were about Mr Holloway.  There was no reason for it.  All you had was someone talking a good job.  You are in exactly the same place now with the new management.
You need to take a position of lets wait and see.
The team I follow has also completely changed its management and the new set up of the board looks encouraging but long experience has taught me:
Talk is cheap
Wait and see
Hiring names as Player or Manager normally precedes a cockup.
Dont hire players for what they were like against you two seasons ago.
Re hiring past players doesnt work most of the time.
None of us really know how good our youth players are and they may be a bettter bet than spending money you dont have..
But best of luck for next season anyway.
