So, 2 weeks since a game, zero news from the club.

Is this really what Power wants with a struggling team with dwindling support. It's at times like these that the local media could/should be using the fragile feel good factor with our recent upturn in results to encourage fans to return to the CG.

Does anything appear on Fanzai or is it the heap of shit many thought it would be?

Fucking strange way to run a business

Maybe so, but seeing as he says the success or otherwise of said business relies on 7000 plus attending but gives the appearance of not giving any encouragement to his 'customers' to attend he can hardly be surprised if they don't fucking bother.

Couldn't imagine any other business using this as a model

What do you want to read about then? Bearing in mind that there may well actually just be no news to report on.

They've finally got round to installing some new floodlights. That's reportable

Have you looked at the press reports from same periods last season and the season before? Both we suffered 1st round cup defeats so had free weekends....

I would imagine you'd find very little in the press either in either of those 2 corresponding periods or anytime where we've had free weekends in fact.
If there is no news then there is no news, unless of course you just make stuff up as the Adver seem to do a lot of the time anyway.
Ultimately the press ban has had little to no impact on us, the struggles on the pitch are the reasons for our 'dwindling support'. Crowds drop when teams struggle, when we had Hart in charge our crowds were mid to low 7k then so nothing new.

On my fanzai at the moment is a Nathan Thompson post saying 'buzzing for this one last night, form is temporary class is permanent'.  With a picture of him and his brother.

Im not sure its that up to date.

It's an old football cliche, that you're as good as your last result, so we've been able to bask in that somewhat, had it been on the back of the Fleetwood result, might have been different.

I now think of Second Round weekend, as our annual mid season break...

Had totally forgotten about the media ban.

That probably sums up its relevance for me

I on the other hand don't read as much about the club as I used to.

probably partly because Morsehead used to do a good job, and I don't seem to catch ASDs posts on twitter as often. partly because there isn't much to read on the adver site.

not sure the club lose out though.

floodlights or floodlight bulbs?
