brizzlelou Posted September 4, 2017 Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 Anybody else fascinated by this story? I know it's another one of those crazy footy stories but I do love to see a team give it a good go like this and try something every now and then. Just hope that there is a Billericay Town left at the end of it all. https://www.google.co.uk/amp/www.bbc.co.uk/sport/amp/football/40997071 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spudski Posted September 4, 2017 Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 Essex...no more words needed. It has it's very own micro climate, pedicured to within an inch of it's life. Everything fake, the aim to look like a minty fresh lozenge... that places an importance on eyebrows, fake tans, brylcreem, the English rash (tattoos), fast cars, fast 'woman' over brain cells. Good luck with that then.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't go giving him ideas - Maggie might not be too pleased at the thought of seeing a mural of her in bed with Steve everytime she rocks up to home game. P.S. Think SL is some way behind in the tattoo stakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SARJ Posted September 4, 2017 Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 Fair play I say. Guy is getting involved and putting his money where his mouth is and hopefully the club will benefit. Good luck to 'em. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin phantom Posted September 4, 2017 Admin Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 All feels a bit like Max Griggs did back in the early 1990's, he turned Rushden Town and Irtlingborough Diamonds into his play thing, Invested lots of money he made through Doc Martens, merging the two sides and rocketing them up the leagues faster than they could really cope Can remember going to Nene Park one season there was literally nothing there, just one average sized non league stand on one side, the following season back there again and they had an electronic scoreboard, all seater stands and all this whilst still only at Southern League level. It's all very well buying the success, which with the quality of players being brought in, is essentially what they are doing - but they need a real infrastructure put in place, he clearly has no real loyalty to the club as he went to Dagenham first (all sounds like Wall-E up the gas) so don't be surprised that when we reaches a decent standard he gets bored quickly and leaves the club in a financial mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Septic Peg Posted September 4, 2017 Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 The bloke is an absolute bell end. First, he's all "I do this for charity blah blah" then he tells someone on Twitter to jump and end it. Then when he gets abuse for that, he calls everyone haters and blocks them. Cant stand him. Full of shit and an arrogant prat to boot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fiale Posted September 4, 2017 Report Share Posted September 4, 2017 Not everyones cuppa, but hey they will have a fun ride for a while - seems his heart is in the right place as well. Tamplin, who has spent around £1m upgrading Billericay's ground, says he is trying to galvanise the local community. He's introduced street pastors to home games so fans can talk over problems, while Billericay's ground has 50 seats for disabled children, who receive free admission, food and drink. Recently, Billericay named a new stand after young football fan Harry Parker, who has a rare form of cerebral palsy. Tamplin donated £45,000 towards the cost of an operation to help the seven-year-old walk again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
