He does a fine job as well.

You would have thought administration at ALL clubs know the rules.

Obviously an amateurish error.

[Sanfran49]

Future players – nice to think about. But the first thing the board have to do is make sure the club actually has a future.

Great to see so many doing bits to help, the fans are involved again. I popped down to the shop got another beanie, mug and a few other bits. But as I say stability is the priority.

Well Mr Dean has been informed about next seasons playing budget. Then you would hope we have been assessing opponents players with a view to future recruitment.

Then other teams players may see a greater opportunity of promotion to a higher league in the Claret & Blue. There again some players from a higher level may just be looking for a club ! James Chester ex Hull City in prem. had an injury marred season at Derby, got released only Barrow gave him a chance on a short term deal until Jan 2024 ! They will not be big payers so they will be out there.

As we are you don’t look a gift hearse in the mouth !! [sorry but could not resist it].

The replacing of Mr Nelson was wrong. I think David [Pick a name] picked who he wanted for what he wanted !

Is he the right man ? How many times do people say we are inconsistent – start 1st half well but 2nd half way off the pace etc. Good teams are consistent. I don’t think he is a bad manager but I do think he may be a division to high.

Every game must be a ‘must win’ game.

Had about 11 – 13 unbeaten run but gone to pieces of late.

Anything over 2,000 is a good result for a none league cup competition on a Friday night.

Solihull fans would probably fit in 1 bus.

Despite the reduced admission charges still a welcome earner given only under 12’s and 100 club members don’t pay.

And of course a winners cheque for that round.

Sorry for not replying BLT – thought I had.

Anyway I would leave Alfie out – with Tom you will always get 100%, he also does the job that he is asked to do. And he will not be a big earner and the present board will be looking to get expenditure under control asap.

At the level we are at now how many comment about biased officials ?

[Sanfran49]

Possibly so but I hope not.

IRON TRUST reporting today that there are now over 780 members which is great news.

[Sanfran49]

Now looking forward to the SHARE LAUNCH. Only got a few as Peter watered down what people had.

This time some protection needs giving to fans who back the club and buy shares.

[Sanfran49]

Hope we set up to play OUR game and make them deal with us. Don’t like a negative approach as it invites trouble.

[Sanfran49]

A great move, Michelle and the board need as much help as possible in these early months.

I was happy to say YES to the proposal, the recipients I trust – the previous ones I would not !

[Sanfran49]

They brought him in because they were protecting their starters who had been out injured and returning.

[Sanfran49]

Played entertaining football not the Southgate tripe ! Cheers El Tel RIP.

Never watch them now.

One of friends was always slating Tom Hopper, once he was heard to mutter ‘Useless, all he does is score goals’ !!

We had a manager trying to force him out – Tom won that war. Lyle Taylor, Tom Hopper and Kyle Wootton all forced out or given away cheaply and we have never replaced them.

Rance is still technically our player and hasn’t been paid off yet

With Rance didn’t someone say he stopped turning up ? If so is he entitled to anything ? Just never saw any press release.

[Sanfran49]

Never watch now. Absolute boredom with the Chuckle Brother tactics.

[Sanfran49]

Certainly will be an opportunity for all to show if they are capable of being at a higher level and that goes for on and off the pitch.

Were just seemingly random one-offs? Seems odd for Scottish clubs to come down mid-season for a friendly game, especially back then.

In the late 50’s and early 60’s we did have scouts in Scotland and we did sign from north of the border. Cannot remember the players name but we signed someone from Campsie Black Watch, and there were others I believe.

Still 2nd so lets not worry to much ! But…..

[Sanfran49]

Beware of this being our ‘banana skin’ game.

This could be our toughest game so far this season, has warnings written all over – 1 club in top 3 and 1 in the bottom 2 ! So many will have written Gloucester off so we need to be more motivated than ever and show Gloucester City total respect.

[Sanfran49]

Really feel for the board, they have a mess to sort but I am confident they can and will do it.

Promotion would up income with league contribution.

[Sanfran49]

The only target for tuesday is a WIN. Need to keep in that 2/3 and thereby increase the pressure on those below.

Hope in these next 5 games a gap can be opened.

Well going to be an interesting 17 day spell coming up starting on the 4th November – we have 6 games !

Going to put pressure on all clubs in or around the leagues top 7 and could be a great opportunity to open a gap at the top. Would like to see same formation and tactics maintained throughout and hopefully have a good points return and unbeaten.

It is HIS money and it is what HE wants to do to help the club.

So it is up to him.
