 Another good day at the office for the squad, only a draw but with York,Chester,Spennymoor and Southport all losing we extend our lead over all these. Farsley and Brackley winning edges them closer to us but I am sure they would rather be in our position than there's at this stage of the season. Brackley, I believe will be a threat at the business end of the season, they keep grinding out results and gently climbing the league relatively unnoticed by many, they are seasoned in this league and never seem to be far from the top come April on limited resources available to them. Well done to the squad today a point at Alfreton is not a bad return, just warming up for Boston. COYL.

I agree, Dazza, that a roof over the Tennyson End would be good, but also think that steeper terraces would help to attract more customers. If we make it to the National, which I certainly hope we do. all away supporters would expect a steeper terrace under that roof, as they are well used to that better view at all other clubs in that league. Boston were less than complimentary about the view, to start with.......
 With due respect dilly, I agree about steeper terracing, but, I feel that there are many other pieces at our club that needs attending too before terracing needs improving, Boston complained, yes, but in reality how many teams even in the next level of the pyramid would bring that many supporters to Norfolk, not many I feel sure to say. In general we only see that many supporters for those special games i.e. derby matches, title deciders and big cup matches. The Boston issues can be sorted with a little tweaking and better organised and briefed stewarding, I also personally feel there were quite a lot of sour grapes leaving a bad taste in there mouths.

I believe I heard over tannoy yesterday about the bucket going round the new Frost/pitch protection covers. I may have heard wrong but said they need around £4-5k to be able make this happen.
I know you can get automatic rollers from either goal to goal, or side to side of pitch, and this doesn’t need much manual work to operate. So reckon this should/could be the better option, it may cost slightly more. But for the Steve (groundsman) it’d save him needing more and more volunteers to help get them on and off.
But personally didn’t see the collection bucket come near me yesterday. Boston at home games do a collection jar for all loose change that goes around every game, and I believe over last 3 seasons it’s raised £3,500 already 🤷🏻♂️
I seem to recall that it was originally stated that a bucket collection would be held in the away end at York Street , maybe I am wrong but if this is the case, it is a chance to all put a pound or two in to help the club along in it's quest to obtain a pitch cover. This has been mooted many times in the past, let's all join forces and help the club reach this goal.

 Sorry dillydilly but in fairness to linnet64 the words " dream of the football league " are used. We all realise better financial management is required to progress through the leagues, we already have terraces at both ends of our ground,what would be nice to see would be a roof over the hospital end to start with, however this is not a requirement to progress up the league ladder.

Top of the league and seeing the teams, ex league teams below, I never thought I would see the day
Just hope we can hold on to Cully and the squad, to fight for even greater honours and dare we even dream of English League Football one day!   
I have been thinking along the same lines as you Linnet, I believe there are 7 clubs below us in the league who have previously been members of the English Football League. This is definitely one of the high points in the history of this football club, and as you I hope we can keep hold of Mr Culverhouse at least until our fate in this season's title/promotion race is indeed settled. I,as I am sure are many others,realise that our manager has ambitions to manage as higher level as possible, hopefully with KLTFC, but in reality we do expect he will indeed probably move on to better himself, but to do this hopefully he will keep winning with KLTFC thus putting himself in that managerial merrygorund melting pot.

Today's results mean it is a good day all round for KLTFC, York city losing and Chester city drawing means no drop in league position for KLTFC,we head into the Christmas fixtures topping NATIONAL LEAGUE NORTH, who would have thought this possible at the start of the season. Another good day and more time to hopefully get some of the injured squad ready to play again over the busy period of games to come. Well done to all concerned and MERRY CHRISTMAS to all involved with KLTFC and our great supporters.

Having received numerous comments on the recent condition of the pitch, I thought I ought to respond.
With the greatest respect to the Chairman, Management, Players and of course the fans, I cannot be called to account for the amount of rain we have had in the last couple of months. For everyone’s information, we have had, without splitting hairs, 320 mm (old money 13 inches) of rain the the last 7 weeks.
Also, for your information, one inch of water equals 113 tons of water per acre. The pitch is one and a half acres. Therefore, we have effectively had 2,200 tons of water in 7 weeks. Even with the new drainage installed, I have no control over the amount of rain we have had. I can assure you that I will do my best to keep the pitch flat and divot free at 3 pm. What happens during the game is out of my hands.
Rant over.

Well said Steve, I can't give you enough praise for the state our pitch is in, excellent compared to only 12 months ago is all I can say. Being a farmer myself and being unable to get on the land to plant our crops,I fully understand your dilemmas, if indeed people are complaining. Ignore them, they have obviously got no worthwhile knowledge of soil maintenance and condition. Please keep doing what you are doing the pitch looks the best it has ever done in my near 50 years of attending the Walks.

just home and clicked on the internet to read the report, have to say, I have just read the Gateshead report via the link on the live feed, good balanced report and up loaded very quickly (putting KLTFC to shame) only thing I disagreed with was there attendance figure which was given in the 300s, not 1060. All in all credit to Gateshead they made it difficult, but KLTFC showed there class in the end to snatch those 3 points and keep us top of the league.

There are so many more sporting events and cinemas and concerts etc etc, for people to now spend the income they have spare on now as opossed to years gone bye. Most families not only have 1 car but generally more, this means transportation to other events is easier than in the past. Many people with young families will say perhaps go to McDonald's,Burger King and then visit a cinema, there is hockey at lynnsport(free to watch) as is rugby at West Norfolk rufc to namebut a few, we are competing against. Just as another point of interest, Only 10 days ago Northampton Saints Rugby were offering 3 matches in the European Champions cup for a total cost of £40 for adults, this is the equivalent competition as champions league football,so this is a slight journey by car but very reasonable priced sport, not a million miles down the road.
