Re: Club Statement 03/05/24

Yep expect Fernandez, Dubois, Seymour, Bloomfield to he highly sought after, unless of course we signed them on 2 yr contracts which is highly unlikely I thought Mel said a number of young players were already signed for next season and presume Pitblado was one of those. Maybe those contracts are n...

I suspect he is none the wiser as it seems everyone is in the dark.

Re: Club Statement 03/05/24

Looks like you may be right Seymour was always Mel’ s man and can’t argue,about the others. It might be we are happy to let them go to reduce the budget. The new manager might have few players remaining.

Re: Club Statement 03/05/24

We as supporters, many of us with years experience, all want the club to succeed. In their own way so do the brothers, where things have gone wrong is that they applied certain conditions that were alien to the club’s culture. Many of us have been surprised at the number of fresh appointments and th...

Re: Club Statement 03/05/24

To my way of thinking the new manager is key to everything. What I don’t want is someone who has only managed at a lower level who replaces our current team with his own players like Gary did and most of them were not good enough. Noble ex St Albans might be possible, he was found wanting at Wealdst...

Re: The Pitch

Let’s hope the pipe can be fixed and a new contractor appointed. Les your post doesn’t fill supporters with hope!

Re: Club Statement 03/05/24

Picking up on Tony’s point, results at the end of the season were poor as was the standard of football. A failure to secure a playoff spot might have been the last straw. As for money, a lot has been spent on staff and their expenses, and many of us would have preferred it going on the playing budge...

Re: Club Statement 03/05/24

Hayden Bird has been released by Leatherhead, this may be the level they're now looking at! Not in my book! No experience at our current level. If they are, then any statement about promotion is just hot air. It might be that the investors have come to this conclusion as to why the brothers are loo...

Think we have to wait for news Les. No idea for how long!

Re: Club Statement 03/05/24

Listened again to Mel's comments after the defeat at Maidstone. Says he'll start working on next season now. I wonder what changed. Good question! Was there a falling out with the brothers / investors over ? If it was the 24/25 playing budget does that not sound good for the incoming manager and th...
