We seem to suffer from a high turnover in terms of Media and Commercial teams. Is it something in the water, lack of ability or the main man being a difficult person to satisfy ? As a former helper Jamie, who is it so in terms of the Media side ?
Not so long back we had Reg heading up the media side which included Pre and post match interviews. Plus interesting stories and up todate news filtering through on social media. Now it seems a certain amount of apathy all around the Club.
Will be interesting to see the crowd tomorrow night. Does anyone know of the Chairman is back from his trip to find investment ?

Just the website ? I would suggest this is just one item on a long list

Must be a good few avenues to investigate re grants... Councils, local and otherwise. Lottery, FA, Sports Council.
The Club must be ticking a lot of boxes with the infrastructure in place from young age etc.
A wealthy owner to come into the equation and if it needs a ‘top up’ then maybe a Crowd funding appeal.
Then there is always overseas invest to consider.

Managers are paid employees . So should never been an issue on how the club is run to generate the income that pays their salary.
A successful Manager at our level will move on eg TW walks out to join Aldershot. A Manager that fails eg MH gets the sack. So either way Managers come and go.

Looking at the fixtures in our League that have succumbed to the weather today it seems that only those with artificial pitches are still on.
It got me thinking that could this be the big announcement the Chairman is going to make with regard to next year ? ( as per his last Podcast). He wants all the Clubs team using the same training facilities so would it not make perfect sense for that to be at The Walks ? Plus it could be used for all adult games. Hiring out. Then used for numerous summer events. SC ihas the consent to run summer concerts ( up to 4). This could be a real game changer if SC is prepared to invest in the Clubs long term future.
He does have a massively long lease on the Ground so no worries about longevity. Is the lease in the Clubs name or SC’s as an individual?
Ok ready to be shot down but really what do others think?

Did you get the deal to supply the kit for the Club? If so that must have been a sizeable order and worth having. Must have been worth it for the cost of a McDonald’s.

A ride in a Bentley don’t come cheap. I hope you ate it outside.

Certainly a great Coach and fun personality. Would say he was an interesting character in some of his business interests away from Football.

SC is off to the States looking for ‘investment’, I use the word loosely. If SC doesn’t pull one then he has the choice of sticking in an extra £2k a month to repay the loan or cut the budget further. Either next season should see the club revert back to part time, surely ? Mind being full time doesn’t seem to have done us any favours this season.
Are we the only team in say the bottom 6 who are full time ?

Fair points there B&G re AL. However the reason MH was sacked and Adam brought in was surely for us to retain our step 2 status ? When he came in he would have known the budget he was working with. Though I admit it does seem strange he has only brought in two young loaners, would have thought he would have maybe changed the squad a bit more. In his interview he seemed to be concerned about how weak we are from set pieces. So maybe he will need bring in a few experienced players to toughen things up.
As for the loan repayment. Can’t see what difference it will make to the Club’s balance sheet as will we not be swapping the loan repayment ( plus the interest) for more in the Directors Loan Column. Seems the hole will just get deeper and deeper

Can’t say it was any surprise getting done at Tamworth. Like it or not we ain’t at that level these days. What was more worrying was AL’s post match interview. Very few positives it seems there at the moment.
Next Saturday at home to Banbury is looking a very pivotal game in our season. The opposition are sitting just above us, got beat Saturday at home, so really feel this is game that we must be targeting to take all 3 points.
After 3 defeats on the spin it and then into December will be interesting to see what crowd turns up for this one.
AL has come in with high praise from Chairman as the best Manager at this level. With a win rate of around 30%, since he joined us, then it’s time for him to step up to the mark

Not sure Cleeve can be accused of having an empty wallet GC. He has pumped a fair old wedge of cash into the club since he walked into the building. Whether it’s his cash or came from elsewhere, he’s been the one spending it, and he continues to do so.
As for him not carrying cash, maybe he feels he is Royaty 😂

I guess this award has a lot to do with the young lady, Jodie Hopkins. Been very impressed with the way she has embraced the work in the Community. All credit to her.
