Wasn't Dave Whelan an ex footballer with football in his blood and so had the best interests of the club at heart? I think DtD is talking about someone who seems to have had no previous interest in a club/football (ie. The guy at Hornchurch). How good would it be if we could find someone like that....

Show me any lower league football club that has had an investor and not be left up shit creek without a paddle. I hope the full members reject this idea and like Mike said if we need to drop again to manage the debt then so be it. Were still paying Burnett and Hackett thats £100k right there. Fleet...

Whip round?

Where does it says his wedding cost 7 million? Sounds like Katie Price is buying the club.

Someone has done some digging this guy currently owes his own company £430k via loans. This is all too dodgy for my liking but surely the board have done some due diligence.

This guy will invest this much in return of what? we have nothing.

The "local businessman" has proposed investing a minimum of £1.25 million over the next five years for ownership of 80% of the club. The worrying point is that the Board have given it a unanimous backing! Although I have been banging on for ages for the Chair to go out and get some invest...

I'm not sure what exactly he'd own given our status. It seems very dodgy to me. Is he contractually obliged to put that money up? Or can he simply do it through the company and walk away unscathed if he doesn't fancy it? There has to be an angle for him but I'm struggling as we don't have many asse...

oh the joy!

More intrigued as to what his motives for wanting to buy the club would be. Who is he (i.e. does he have any connection whatsoever with the club) - cant say I've ever seen his face about in the last 20 years. What would happen to the club if we got a desperate financial situation (unpaid bills/wage...

We only became LTD due to football league rules perhaps we are reverting to the old way with the current company being closed?

Perhaps there is more to Gerry Resigning then we think? I would be really worried if this goes ahead.

The National League have confirmed that the fixtures across the three divisions are planned to be released on Wednesday, July 6. Based on previous seasons, the fixtures will be released at 12 noon or 1pm.

I see the coming 2016-17 season Fans guide to football grounds has been juggled around ready for the start, North Ferriby Utd, Solihull Moors & Guiseley (have we ever met that trio?) look interesting reads and thankfully close to rail stations. Have got to admit going into Nailsworth and Forest...

I also saw the advert and I was very concerned too about what was required for no pay. In my line of work I'm very outspoken about unpaid internships and this seems very unfair. I hope the club will reconsider and pay someone in line with the NMW/NLW guidelines. Would rather have a new player. Inte...
