In America I believe they put pictures of missing children on milk cartons. I suspect we could go the same route with a picture of our 1st team with “Have you seen these 13 young men. They went missing last Sunday afternoon around 40 minutes past 3pm. Last seen going into the changing rooms at half time at Widnes RL ground near the chemical works. If seen please direct them to a random place in Kent just off the Dartford Crossing. Don’t let the out of your sight as they are easily distracted.”

| Now the club have announced the Featherstone game on 10-Jul will also be played at Ebsfleet. Thought the days of fitting around football ground works were behind us but seems not.

Very odd as AFC were tweeting last week that the pitch was like a carpet. Maybe they no longer want our grubby feet on it!

| The Fev game at Ebbsfleet suits me, but it will alienate many, I am sure.
I see the club says it has given 500 free tickets to schools in the area. It will be interesting to see what sort of a crowd we draw.

This is good but I doubt will help grow crowds in Wimbledon towards Hughes 5,000 target.

Probably not, although it may help Medway Dragons & Invicta Panthers pull in a few more kids, which might be good for the game.
It will also make the attendance figures look better than they otherwise would.

Clearly the carpet is more threadbare than they thought.

All the more odd as at times it’s been clear our team have been wearing carpet slippers whilst playing. I assume they don’t fancy the bartering the goal mouth will receive as Rovers pile up an unpleasantly high score.

Not going to get on my high horse about this as I didn’t fancy this game at all but you know basically not playing at home all the way though the very short no football window is dumb and hardly builds momentum or interest and the best place for a team struggling for points to play is usually at home. Basically it’s crackers.....

| It will certainly be easier for Fev fans (Sheffield too) who travel down by train. LNER to Kings X, walk over to St Pancras and in 20 mins you are at Ebbsfleet International.

| Another piece of evidence to show that the move to Wimbledon was a badly thought out ànd fiscally suicidal move for a club that is now utterly rudderless both on and off the field.
Hughes' silence is deafening. The problem is that these issues are entirely of his own design and he will NEVER admit he has made a grave error.
It's time to return to Ealing, especially if we are to remain part time. The club never discounted corporate there, but now seem to be tripping over themselves to fill it now in an inane and pointless attempt to prove the move has worked.
Year 1 at Wimbledon has been nothing short of a clusterf56k and only Hughes arrogance will ensure we are back there next year as he won't EVER admit he messed up.

20 minutes and £20 Victor. Which as we know equates with 11 pints up North.

Someone on the other site has quite rightly pointed out that we are now running the expense of 4 grounds this season. Just say that out loud. 4 grounds ! That’s just crazy.

One thing we can possibly all agree on is that Hughes has more money than sense.

| Re travel to whichever ground, I never assume anyone comes by train, always look at the driving option. Which is why I say ebbsfleet an off putter for away fans.
