General Discussion / Am i being unreasonable?
June 15, 2025, 01:41:14 PM
You cannot but admire how our new manager has gone about restructuring the squad. Being fast out of the blocks is something of an understatement! But what a contrast with off field activities and before that comment is jumped on from certain quarters, i am not talking about the financial intricacies and detail but as i posted previously, is it unreasonable to ask who is running the club day to day: who is our proactive manager reporting to, who is responsible for ticket pricing policy etc?

When Colin Fuller posted that the official club website had confirmed Bal as CEO, with no mention of Mr Cleeve (Colin subsequently posted that the page in question had been taken down and that is still the case) i thought i would seize the moment and write to our new CEO, congratulating him and confirming that Mr Cleeve's exit would encourage me to return as a paying supporter, with one proviso: that more appreciation might be shown to older supporters by way of a more competitive  concession ticket price, which had not been the case when Mr Cleeve ran things. I made a constructive suggestion for which i take no credit; Coastal Linnet had suggested this in an earlier forum post: A book of ten flexible competitively priced concessionary tickets. I would most certainly purchase one as would i believe a number of others whose attendance at games is governed by such as health and weather.

Disappointingly but unsurprisingly, i have  not had a response.

General Discussion / A club motto?

Maybe an opportunity to attract an anonymous sponsor?

This seems to encapsulate KLTFC?

Some excellent non league performances: not least Tamworth and Kettering. i thought it somewhat ironic though that the standout player for Kettering, who scored the equaliser and assisted the winning goal, was a 19 year old locally born academy graduate.

Our concession match day seated price of £19 is higher than Barnet and York: currently the top two in the National League. Stephen Cleeve: a modern day Dick Turpin !

Seems to be doing a good job at Corby. 5-1 win on Saturday with jason Lee and David Bell in the team. His Northampton contacts still seem in place (Shaun Macwilliams?) with this young man scoring two

Just wondered, does anyone know where he is currently playing? He seems to have disappeared off the radar at Rushden?

Just wondered if he has finally called it a day as he has not featured in the Swaffham squad for a while?

Scored a brace (now 7 for the season) in Nunaeton's 2-2 draw with FCof Manchester..........who had George Thomson making his debut. Duffy seems to have had a Lazarus like career resurgence since leaving us?

Playing for Salford now............Did he not play a few games for us several seasons ago - before the old club folded?

I thought that he sustained a career threatening injury whilst with us?
