  1. If I were them I would be most worried about the lack of movement on the training ground. (No pun intended :whistle:

    The basic facilities could have been in place and ready to go in a few months. As a starter, all they'd need is a grass pitch, maybe an astro pitch, somewhere to park and somewhere to get showered and changed. That could have all been done with temporary porta-cabins in fairly short order and without too many planning headaches. 

    They could then take a bit longer to expand and develop a more permanent facility.

    If they can't get a fairly straightforward build off the ground it doesn't bode well for their longer term plans.

    Really? This has been happening for years... one game, fantastic and the next, total garbage.

     

    I disagree. Last season we were consistently struggling, the season before that we were class and promoted, the season before that we were awful under O'Dismal and picked up under Cotts. 

    I am struggling to think of a time when we were so poles apart over such a short space of time.

  3. Let's not dwell on recent negatives. 

    John Pemberton was part of a coaching set up that brought for a large number of us, a first league championship in our lifetimes (42 years for me). 

    He steadied the club last season and has contributed over 3 years hard work to the club we all love.

    For that alone we should, and I believe are, very thankful.

    Good luck John in whatever your future holds.
