I wonder how many (if any) of our former players will end up playing there

Midlandgull wrote: ↑24 May 2024, 16:14 Isn't McGavin still under contract?

According to Transfermarket he is under contract until 30th June 2025. I don’t know how accurate that is. I’m also unsure whether or not going into administration makes existing contracts null and void should the player so wish.

To be fair to Johnson though, looks like Lolos has grown up and listens to instructions which he didn't do here. He was a talented but loose cannon, you can't just go out on the pitch and do your own thing. And yet, Arkell Jude Boyd publicly thanked Downes during a videoed interview for allowing hi...

Shameful and humiliating

All of the kits are awful. Who picks them? They look cheap. If they come into existence, I will not be buying. Go with something original.

Go with something original?

I’d say that these are totally original!!

The 6 officers includes the person who has resigned. She was presumably the person who registered the name months ago. So only 5 people officially involved. Yes, you are correct. On ticking the filter box to show only the “current” officers, it just lists the 5 names we are already aware of. Think ...

Further to this, Companies House shows Scoring Goals Ltd as having 6 officers associated with the company, but only lists the 5 names we are already aware of.

Don’t think it’s Warnock as he has referred to the consortium as “they” rather than “we”.

It seems to be widely believed that the 1 player we still have on contract is Austen Booth, but Transfermarket shows only one player under contract until June 2025, and that is Brett McGavin. Having listened to the podcast from Wotton and Warnock, Wotton stated he would only have players who could r...

I was wondering who the 6th member could be too. Just seems a little strange that his name hasn’t been mentioned in light of the refreshingly open style of communication from the new consortium.

The deal will be far from done. But, there is great hope. To take over the club, you would need a single investor, partnership (two people) or a company. This is what you are seeing, a company take us over and you can see it being formed. There may be additional names arriving to invest. The people...

A minor point. Is it four or five consortium members? According to Companies House, Westcott and three others (Bowes-Cavanagh, Allen and Robinson) became directors of Scoring Goals Limited today. I can see no reference to Rob Hawes who was named as one member of the consortium under the new ‘prefer...

Would be brilliant, although unlikely, that he came back to us. And Shaun MacDonald……
That would give us a fighting chance for next season.

Infandous?? Just had to look it up - “infandous” is defined as something too odious to be expressed or mentioned.

Love it when I learn a new word
