The value of the club depends largely on the value of it players (assets) would not of thought any new investors who are trying to make money would be happy about the sale of our best players. Also I'm sure poalo would walk if this happened depending what he knew about the potential investors.

I used to think it mattered, I used to think that football mattered, but does it? bollocks, not compared to how people matter.

This could equally go in either of the 'trivial things' threads.
Crawley have withdrawn any further advance sale tickets for the game on the 2nd Feb, apparently because they are worried about us going into administration. Heard this from the ticket office on Saturday and Morshead now talking about it on Twitter.
Don't know where to begin with that.

It was mentioned on here a couple of days ago IIRC - can't be arsed to find the link though! We should send Sussex Red and/or STFC Bird on a covert mission to confiscate their panic button |

I have had a reply: I understand your complaint fully and we are in the process of making remedies. Chris Dunlavy is writing an apology in the paper and we have contacted Swindon Town FC.
Ironically, Chris Dunlavy has always been a champion of Swindon; in this instance his zeal to criticise clubs who live beyond their means has carried him away to make clearly unfounded, and deeply regretted, statements about the club.
His intention had been to raise the wider issue of insolvency and debt in football, and more precisely the need for clubs to move towards self-sustainability.
He saw Sir William Patey’s reported comments about administration and used this as the basis for his remarks. He chose the wrong target.

Seems like that same reply has been drafted by a crafty writer and sent to everyone who sent an email in! (See Flasheart's response on the Wray cheat thread)

Good to see the paper recognise their mistake and I look forward to seeing it in print.
With reference to Crawley I hope they don't know something we don't.

His intention had been to raise the wider issue of insolvency and debt in football, and more precisely the need for clubs to move towards self-sustainability. Good intentions, and maybe Mr Dunlavy might wish to be appraised of the facts that this has always been the intent of the current owners, as set out in their vision in 2007/8. He chose the wrong target Only time will tell, but lets hope this is a true statement! (I've had the same response btw) |

He did lavish a lot of praise on us last season... While we cheated our way out of League Two.

I had a different reply:
Dear Mr Ginginho.
Thank you for your email, Mr Dunlavy's favourite cheese is Red Leicester.
David Emery.
