We dont want to risk losing the away game at the Leeds teams are queing up for that one and we are lucky to have it every year, the money we make off that game is huge on boxing day. A home game before is a better idea.

e swingeing cuts had to be made due to the club spending more cash than was coming through the metaphoric till.
If not Glover and Elston would still be here ??

IIRC we were told that Glover had "loaned" money to pay for the stands and it was a condition of the new board taking over that this loan was not to be called in.
Whether this still shows somewhere in the clubs accounts, I've no idea.

Once again we seem to be entering the great cut debate. I'm sure savings had to be made for the club to move forward , the problem is we haven't. The club depends on people turning up either through season ticket sales or on the day. We were promised a team to compete in S L and that just never happened due to cuts. We have seen a club run with little or no imagination particualy over the last 12 months. We now find ourselves fire fighting to remain in SL. You can not spam up the fact that the clubs in a bit of a mess, we have a vast number of players out of contract, the possibility of no home next season and a new squad to assemble for next season. We stumble from one season to the next unable to make solid foundations. On the plus side we have a coach who knows the game and will get the best out of the players while ever he's around. Not good is it in all honesty. The club needs a totally new approach.

No it doesn't - it needs an owner with bottomless pockets who is prepared to spend money in the full knowledge that s/he will never get it back; and there aren't many of them around.

not likely to be any around with our record. Still it's pleasing to know that you are happy with the clubs direction.

I didn't say I'm happy with it, but I fail to see what other direction the club can take when there is no money; everything we do seems reactive and short term, designed to get us through the latest crisis - but I guess in the absence of a Ken Davey or even, god forbid, a MarwanK, that's how it has to be.
