Devon-based Boston United exile. You may remember me as impsTALK. Once bought a massive metal sign and won't stop going on about it. Bit negative.
I know money is always an issue but I genuinely do not believe it is this difficult to run a stable, competent football club. And yet so many people get involved way beyond their ability level. It's kinda breath-taking when you think about it.

I know @jim.londoncentric.media is a York fan but otherwise he's great. As someone who gets violently angry about what Reach PLC has done to our local news media, I think what he's doing is bloody brilliant and the "model" needs to get out into the rest of the country.

Haha, good luck! We're doing the Wednesday; the Monday one sold out in about six seconds.

Yeah. Standing tickets were £165 in the pre-sale. I paid it because I'm part of the problem.

I can only assume it's covered as part of the "claim for compensation" bit then, which means - again - the NL board is just making it up as they go along. As normal.

They need a proper rule book, not just a lightly modified version of the FA National League System template rules.

Ah, ok, fair enough - I thought it was squirrelled away in there under the gate receipt stuff. Eastleigh's statement does reference a particular regulation but unhelpfully doesn't specify which regulation it is!

I *think* it's enshrined in the league rules, but as the incredibly shit NL have removed the rules from their website I can't double check. If it's in there, though, then the clubs must shoulder some of the blame for not getting it changed at the AGM. They're more interested in the free piss up.

How we ended up here is going to keep historians busy for decades. I will say this: I don't think we were fully prepared for how the internet would radicalise huge swathes of the population who are incapable of even basic levels of critical thinking.

Apparently Mansfield is the same: crap, cheap flags tied everywhere that have long since shredded and now give the place a sort of "Quiet Place" vibe.

Because tackling antisocial behavior with meaningful intervention costs money and that means "socialism" to these people. They'll spend the same, if not more, funding ICE/deportation/prisons/hired private thugs though.

Taxi drivers in Piraeus would enjoy that banner! I have been told, repeatedly, he has bodies dumped in the sea 🤣

Definitely. You often hear Boston fans going on about the geographical isolation of the town being an issue for the football team, but then you have Barrow!

I also still dine out on doing Workington away twice in one season.

Is it even possible to find out why he couldn't get EFL clearance without the shenanigans?

Alfreton call it a "strategic partnership"

AlphaFC call it an "acquisition"

Great start, lads. Great start.

Aye, I rarely bother over here despite a few folks I followed ditching their X accounts months ago cos of old Elon. It's a bit of a pain switching between two platforms tbh and X is just better/busier (notwithstanding any ethical concerns).

Crewe fans abusing Danny Taylor for writing about the Barry Bennell scandal summed up the colossal stupidity of misplaced loyalty perfectly.

Forest fans seem to be delighted, despite this making their club look like a two-bit non-league club owned by a chancer balls deep in the Benidorm timeshare market.
