    I can only see our season going one way, and I don't like it !!

    2nd leg home defeat in the play offs to you lot 😏

    I would have thought your immediate worry would be that you might not be good enough to beat Maidstone.

    How many tickets have we been allocated for the Liverpool match does anyone know please?

    Strange question unless you are thinking that the whole island you're on wants to go.

    But I doubt that.

    How many tickets do you want?

    When was the last time we sold a star player for £xxxx millions that resulted in an improvement in performance, results and prospects.

    Well, I'll tell you.

    Never.

    Football is about what happens on the pitch, it's about excitment, good players and results.

    It is not about how much money we can get by flogging someone who shows a bit of ability at the drop of a hat as soon as another club shows a bit of interest.

    You can only put up with "Ah, but we need the money" for so long.

    Isn't that why we got the Yank onboard?

    It's happenend far too many times in the the past and we shouldn't tolerate it happening again.

    Gavin was a really good player, strong and stocky but quick enough to be a winger. A great servant of the club.

    Before I went off to the match I used to get my fish n chips at Valori's in Rose Lane on Saturday lunchtimes because my grandparents lived just round the corner in King St.

    Cod and chips for a shilling (5p)

    Happy days

    There is a current racehorse called Gavin and I always back it when it runs

    There was a time, back in our Giant Killing Days, that we, the Club, the Players and the Fans, did not fear anyone in the FA Cup.

    The thought of losing against anyone never really crossed our minds

    It was always exciting on a Monday lunchtime to listen to the draw for the next round on the wireless.

    Funny how some of our fans frequently label the players as gutless and then we see that they are just as gutless themselves.

    A difficult tie it could be if we beat BR but the FA Cup is always full of upsets so it can be done.

    If I was MA I would be having serious doubts about progressing with my investment.

    We were a half decent Club when he first got involved but now we are falling apart at the seams.

    He will have seen what's going on so why would he want to continue with such a lame duck where he is simply going to throw good money after bad and with little or no chance of getting a return on his investment.

    He might not know much about football in the UK but I'm sure he is pretty adept at reading between the lines and knowing when to cut and run.

    I don't know why anyone is still talking about a serious promotion campaign, at least not for this season.

    In every respect, from Owner(s), Manager, Squad, Star Players, Financial Resources right through to our current Youth development, we are miles away from being either Promotion contenders and/or Premier League material.

    We have had plenty of goes in the PL in recent years, often in a better allround situation than we have now, and every time we've been up there we have been found wanting in virtually every aspect of being competitive.

    To their credit, and to put our efforts in perspective, when you consider some of the star players we had, Luton Town have given it a better go than we did.

    Before mounting a serious promotion campaign we have so many issues and deficiencies to sort out and that process will take longer than what remains of this season and probably next season too.
