Something not quite right…

Post by Desmond2-2 » Wed Sep 21, 2022 6:35 pm

This forum , everyone just appears happy, doesn’t feel right. No moaning about the players, the manager,the fanzone, head of security, the club shop,the board, what’s going on. Well I’m gonna moan, those Russian [SwearFilter],the rise in energy prices, the M6 roadworks,the illegals, the amount away teams charge for tickets,that fells better. Have a good day everyone :scarf: :scarf:

Maybe if we pay our bills it would be okay off the pitch too. Good results and feel good factor masking other issues

I'll add one - what has happened to the 1719 train to Lancaster?? First scheduled train back now after the game appears to be at 1804.

Lesson to be learned Desmond - never poke a bunch of miserable bas!ards with a pointed stick. They are never happy…just resting.

Yes afc blue you mentioned on another post about no planning etc for additional seats now we get another little snipe re non payment of bills.I have read this one before tho not necessarily by you.I do wish that instead of stirring,agitating etc people would attend the opportunities to ask owners management the truth iof these rumours naming the people/firms whe are complaining of late or no payment or questioning the apparent lack of action re seating.Sounds like an agenda to cause unrest just while we are all enjoying the unexpected but brilliant start to the season by our new manager and team.Is there a hidden agenda here?

No agenda here.
I know of at least 3 local businesses that are owed money. Unfair to name them.
I never started the Stewards non payment debate either.... Nothing new here it's been going on for years through all the previous owners too.
Just wish we smartened ourselves up off the pitch.
On it we are superb....
Liverpool Ann......hope you take your head out of the sand before Saturday......We have a big game this week.....wouldn't want you to miss it....

Thats the way most businesses operate, there'll hardly be a business in this town or country that isn't owed money by another company, or supplier-It's been going on for years and, will always go on.
Your comments are not needed, they just cast our club in a bad light. At least think about the unwarranted bad reputation your comments could bring on our club.

Northern Rail have arrived at the conclusion that the fewer services you timetable, the fewer you need to cancel or will show up in the lateness stats.

The signing of Jordan Lyden should give us something to talk about until Saturday

Jordan Lyden . Well he's a decent player ...but he's had some serious injuries in recent times ... and may consequently not fit comfortably into the system we normally play right now .
First match : Barrow v Northampton Town : Sat. 24th Sept. 1960 ... won 1-0... ( which was nice )

Hope he is a free agent or we can't sign him until January. Or is Pete Wilde keeping tabs on him

Free agent
He’s a player that Pete knows and has spoken to him (no indication on whether conversation was prior to the start of the season or recent)
Currently training with his former club Swindon and talks that they may still offer him a deal.
Couple of other players trialling with the club at present

Any feedback on Richie Bennett.
