Nemesis; who wrote that load of rubbish? Just denigrate the Kings Lynn Community Football scheme, to enhance their chances of grooming gullible parents and kids onto the money making scheme!! I am flabbergasted that my old school with wonderful history, has been duped into allowing a link to this scheme! So many untruths have been advertised on their promotion of the scheme. It has been tried before; only to die a death, leaving kids heartbroken!
Oh; and Ian Culverhouse coaching the students!! We will see!! One session!!

Wait until the Club goes bust; or Stephen Cleeve walks!!
As always in the past50 years the debt sits with so many business's in the area!!
You note Stephen doesn't have any local connection!!
Ian Culverhouse to coach the Academy!! That's interesting from where he lives!!
Front line advertising bull****!
The Community Scheme was set up in 2002 and we worked our socks off to gain the funding help nationally to get up and go!
You have a very hard working team of coaches, with Buhly! IThey care for levels from the age of 5-6-7 years old!!

I do apologise! I remember his England Amateur career, Northampton, Spurs, Arsenal and Altringham before Kings Lynn but was not aware of Norwich. I knew Ken wasn't player at Norwich! Wasn't well liked at King's Lynn after replacing Reg Davies, which prompted Cliff Jones to leave as he detested the man, and made enemies in the Spurs squad!!

Reg Davies was a close friend of the Jones family and Cliff signed for him. He was not wealthy as he had been scammed by a partner in a Butchers business in London. He was a wonderful man and took his last Cap for Wales (Prince of Wales investiture) to Bedford in a Lynn game and he showed it to supporters in the bar after the game! He was a remarkably brave player, and when Reg was side-lined as manager, Laurie Brown came in, Cliff said he was not playing for him! At Spurs, he said he was a braggart, pain in the bum, who was not a good man or player. He left after a game at Gloucester to go to Bedford!! Still fit and healthy fitness fanatic at 80 years old with amazing room of mementoes!! He was paid £50 bonus when Spurs won the double!

ENJOY THE RIDE!!
That's the trouble with the ride; some poor sods never get paid when insolvency / bankruptcy arrive! I'm a pragmatist and believe in business that has more income than expenditure!! Seen 6 events like this since 1960, and who picked up the pieces!! Care for the Clubs wellbeing and existence is crucial, or back to the United Counties again!!

The reserve downward structure is vital to this Town's football! The Community football, Elite football, Youth and Reserves give our kids a dream to aspire to!! Not only that when this 1st Team financial fiasco meets its nadir, this community will be left to pick up the pieces as the protagonists of this venture disappear, not to be seen again!!

Karsa was the bully at Norwich and lots of nasty stories of him there. But Culverhouse was not ever seen like that. Must have been sucked into Karsa's web at Villa.

Artificial pitches can be a money spinner. However, even today the damage to limb joints from the hard surface is still a concern whilst now carcinogens are known to be in the rubber granules. Also the costs are extremely high and upkeep not cheap! Reg Davies said, in the 60's, there was only one pitch heavier than the Walks; that was Wembley. Grassed surfaces can be so much more advanced today with impregnated surfaces that make a massive difference!!

As a supporter, player, manager and coach over 65 years I witnessed many players being given hard times. So many of those were local lads. Len Adams, Mick Manning, Terry Maxwell etc in my early years Later I found exactly the same, and Reg Davies noted, in the Lynn News that my stick from 'fans' was amazing, as in Wales he said people loved their local lads making the grade! In the 70 -80's Easthall, Johnson were loved whilst Adams was ridiculed. Jack Defty when fit was a monster, whilst his brother Charlie was an excellent player not appreciated by supporters! Sam Gaughran was contracted at Peterborough by Ferguson; to be dumped by Fry and then 6 years with Lowestoft in Conference. An outstanding football brain, to say he can not hack the present level is opinion! He will become a very good manager in coming years. Wisbech lads are not ever seen as 'local'!

Its very interesting to see Sam Gaughran & Beever named as failure. As with all local lads Sam has always been seen as easy criticism. Toby another local to be seen as inadequate; but Gash (big money man) not prolific!!
From my good knowledge, Clarke didn't listen to either of them and obviously, his game strategy didn't work. There is an excellent squad and let off the leash have shown improved attacking/ defending qualities. Big money budget is the real concern!! Next 3 months will be interesting!!

A great family friend. KLFC right to being kicked into touch by Mr Chapman in 2010 (for telling him how it should be) and then shareholder at Wisbech Town. KL Sunday League, Norfolk County FA, Youth Football, KLFC Secretary!! Said t how it was but gave his all and became the closest of family friends. Some time he cared too much about KLFC.
