Of course your right Pat the photo backs you up doesn’t it.
The question was one improvement, the training pitch was one. No more no less. I know it doesn’t fit with alot of posters narratives but you must get over it.
Please go on Google put in “glanford park the history” you will then see a picture of glanny park before Swanny acquired the land behind that fence, where the trading ground is now. Then you can make your own mind up. But I guess some will never accept it.
Needs knee surgery.
Shite next week as well coke, got to get the 7.08 (no 8.08) our Donny to kings cross isn’t till 9.19 guess we’ll have to have a drink and brekkie in the mallard, never mind, also coming hom getting back an hour late due to the same problems. That we can blame on COVID.

Is it some new kind of tourist attraction coke? Was there any trolley service?
No the land didn’t already belong to the club, oh what a missed opportunity all that land the owners at that time could have bought and leased it out for all the retail outlets that are there now,even the land the other side of the road where Tesco’s is was up for grabs that would have kept the club going with all that rental potential. I do like your simplistic view how to make a training ground though Pat, we just use to use 4 jumpers and heho you had a football pitch, can’t believe swanny spoils them so much.
Swanny acquired the land next to the stadium and turned it into the training ground, there’s your answer Pat, how many other teams have the luxury of training facility that close to the ground with the gym and physio less than 100 meters away, so I think we can all agree that is one improvement that Swann has made.
Railcard?
Alcy doesn’t attend any games home or away Deerey, and I’m sure you understand why I mainly go away.
Should have done better full stop, with their financial superiority they should walk div2.

Just interested that’s all Alcy, will you need to rearrange the toys in your pram? For NL.

Will you be polling the supporters this Saturday Alcy?
What’s to plan if you don’t attend any matches.
The national League have voted for a wage cap next season,no figures yet but believed to be £900.000 maximum, to be introduced at the next AGM, can’t believe it will stick though as the EFL wage cap was deemed illegal.
I must admit,it’s very strange to see how pathetic supporters are at home games- virtually no protests, just a resigned acceptance.

Do you think the council would sell the fans down the river and allow the stadium to be redeveloped into something else, most councils see football stadia as a community asset. Swanns dealings with North lincs council haven’t been the most amicable in the past so may struggle to get planning permission.

You got what you wanted though Mick 4 years ago when swanny let Alexander go, if only!. Oh what lots would give for a team that plays boring football (supposedly) but keeps getting points.
Just goes to show even when the club do something well some will not acknowledge it, very sad indeed.

Doubt it very much after all we were at home, and as for Thanatoser he would find it hard to articulate to scunny fans his bizarre reason for being there.
One statement Deerey, read loads on Bonser and Pomlett went as far back as 1995 Walsall club accounts, any further back you had to pay £3 for each search so didn’t go any further, bit of a saddo but I do check the facts, there for all to see even you Deerey. I did say the inference to it being “our” puts a different take on it.
My comments were based on facts, not opinions, Walsall FC have never had the freehold of the Bescot or Banks whichever you like to call it they have always rented, an inference to it being :ours:as he stated puts a totally different take on it, and more likely to persuade posters on here it’s been bad when in reality it hasn’t, so if Thantos or anyone else posts they can be expected to be challenged.
I did think Thanatos would have give his thoughts on the game and his experience, guess he’s a sore loser.
Well worth a look on the Walsall forum, Walsall FC a broken club thread, remind you of anyone else?.
The plan to get your stadium back was agreed when Bonser left, they negotiated options to buy the freehold, read Pomletts statement 29th July 2019 from your club web archive. The rent goes to fund Bonser and his brothers pension pot. No away fans supposed to be allowed in the Iron bar but don’t wear any colours and you’ll get in,once in the fans will be fine with you and sure they will like a chat.
Resigned to never see a home world cup again in my lifetime, sad state of affairs, not that our bid wouldn’t be up there with the best, but votes are bought these days and the fa aren’t prepared to go down that route.
Still a better football ground than that soulless place of our home ground.
The team should be supported whoever is put out, there lies the problem with a certain amount of scunny fans Deerey, I take it you must be one of them.
Their ex chairman also offered the freehold to the incumbent Alcy , but couldn’t take him up on the offer due to lack of funds, the offer is still there, separating the ground from the club made it possible for Walsall’s new chairman to take over, that would be the same in our case.
