Goodbye don’t slam the door on your way out.
Thanks for FA

Really hope they don’t get their hands on any football club EVER

Hoping now GJ might publish his book, could be an interesting read.

Just a professional outfit giving a statement

Those 3 nearly destroyed this club and took it to its lowest point, they should all hang their head in shame

I hope they never get anywhere near a football club again

Being honest honest couldn't give a monkeys toss about the outgoing directors and my message would be forget them and move on. This is confirmation of the news we've all been waiting for , and never thought I'd being saying this, a positive future lays ahead for our great club now, however I'm expecting there to be long road ahead, and we'll need patience and to give our backing along the way.

Honestly feeling like a kid at Christmas right now about our club, looking forward to having my first season ticket in 4 years, a new shirt, may even get a training top, and certainly buying into the community share issue when it's launched.

Yes, did the Administrator actually mean that or was it repetition of a common error? Perhaps they did mean it!

Maybe we should incorporate Bryn into our new team badge????? Alsatian chasing away the Bristolian Shitehawks :lol:

Sell some new tee shirts with Jim and the Dog emblazened across the chest for the opening match? Better quality than this of course.....

No such thing as an Alsatian, it's German Shepherd 😉

I believe they were rebranded as "Alsatian" (that is, coming from the Alsace region) during WW II so that people didn't think "German Shepherd? Eugh, nazis!"

Glad you made it through this. Despite being a Worthing fan and thus someone who knows you could be serious rivals to us next season, no proper football fan wants to see fellow fans lose their club. It was so nearly us 10 years ago but the good times did come back and actually got even better thanks to a genuinely good owner. Don't get too drunk tonight!

I've bred and worked German Shepherds for 20 years and owned them my whole life so I'm well aware of their history. It's just a bug bear of mine when I hear them mislabelled.
