Hemel Hempstead Town v Torquay United, 23rd September 2023

[culmstockgull]

Communicatiom , wonderful word but banned from the confines of plainmoor ever since Osborne took over the ownership, in reality we are run as a private members club, and the fans, whilst being welcomed through the turnstiles will never be admitted.
This we know and have known for some seasons but it makes it no less frustrating. When we are continually fed on a diet of prevarication and hot air is it any wonder that there is no harmony from anyone or confidence in our future.
Johnson was somewhat annoyed the other week when someone in Bristows gave him a gob full, the temerity of this supporter who vocalised what many were thinking, was he right, it matters little, the club and Johnson in particular are lucky that in the main we are a fairly restrained bunch.
Johnson has always struck me as a strong character and I find it very odd that he fully acceptes the muzzle placed on him by the club, we have heard nothing since mid august about the four or five loans he was actively looking at, why he continues to spout the party line that our players are good enough and can only get better when even the least knowledgeabe of supporter can spot the duds in the team.

The “gaffas” reported £3,000 a week wages maybe the main reason he keeps quiet.

Reported by whom? I have seen various figures bandied about in the past 2 or 3 seasons, but nothing official and nothing by an actual journalist.

Seems like you should have put the scare quotes around "reported"
