You do know this is a Division 5 forum? Most teams down here would have a week-long village fete with running duck racing and welly throwing and everything if they came 2nd in Div 4!

Scarecrow competition, guess the weight of the pig, raffle drums, balance a coin on the lemon, gurning contests...

Yes, the rumour is in cahoots with Steve McLaren, Dave Hodgson and Gary Pallister. What the hell his motive could be, I have no idea. I won't be voting to accept him, but plenty appear ready to at least listen to him. His unveiling was a bit like your daughter bringing her new boyfriend home to meet you, and him turning out to be the same guy who beat the crap out of her and left her to die 5 years earlier.

Some Darlo fans are actually in favour of it? Wow.

And I thought Pompey fans wanting that former Disney guy to take over was bizarre. Do people not learn from their mistakes?

Grimsby, through their website, were drip feeding their retained list through all of yesterday by doing some kinda weird D-Day live blog thing.

They're also holding a testimonial for Craig Disley even though he's only been there six years...

Is that a nice gesture or a bit tinpot? I can't make my mind up.

Not sure if this is the right place. A photo from todays new manager press conference at Woking:

The media person logic "Yes, I know, I'll use the photo with the severely pissed off old lady & the two suicidal blokes".......

Really instills confidence that!

If he was retiring then maybe it's a nice touch as it's rare to get a player at Conference/L2 level who stays for more than a couple of years. I didn't see us offering one to Keates or Harris. But I don't think Disley is retiring at all.

TBH now that Woking have firmly slipped into being Surrey's second best non-league club I'm not surprised that their new manager announcement was so depressing

THREE recording devices on the table. Not even a BBC mic. So sad.

Replying to @mikesjoyce_mike @NonLeagueCrowd and
I have to be honest I want averages of 2500 next year 1500 not enough everyone please make effort and bring friends.


They averaged 550 last season.......clueless.
Can be done especially if the local media plug you to hell and the chairman gives fans a load of spiel about reaching football league and building a 10,000 capacity stadium. He should give jeff thompson a ring from south shields he knows how to get a clubs average attendance from 100 to a 1000 in one season

And the chairman that sent darlington to the wall, raj singh has now decided not to invest on the club due to critism on social media. What else did he expect

Billericay TV series coming soon.
The people behind Arsenal Fan TV are helping them setup a Billericay Fan TV.
Glenn thinks they will have 3000-4000 fans within a few years.
Gonna spend a fortune on the ground even though the council plan to kick them out in the next 5 or so years. Doesn't seem worried, he thinks the council will build them a 5 million pound stadium due to their massive fan base.

:lol::lol:

The rendition of the national anthem before the playoff final....what was that out of key trombone noise about
It was funny at last years Final this guy was singing then just as he finished a load of our players came out and everyone started cheering for them but the singer thought that it was for him and he had a massive smile and put his hands up and started waving.
