New owner. Clem has shown he doesn't know what he's doing, and unwilling/unable to pay to employ people that do. In doing so, he's guaranteeing this club will get relegated in the next couple of years. Ingrained 'fuck it, that'll do' culture at this club now.

None of that will be enough for me to return.
New ownership or nothing for me personally. They'll likely do a few of those things and once the season has started sack them all anyway and go back to scrimping and saving
Or appoint a manager like Flynn, sign a few decent players and look like putting a squad together and then suddenly lose the cheque book. I mean if we're lucky we can have a good start to save us from relegation again for a third season in a row. |

I've already said I'm done with any sort of funding until there is a new owner, its more a question about what I would do if the club was sold.
If I really felt the club was in good hands, I'd probably get a season ticket. But I'd need to be really confident the crooks were gone. I'd probably come back to going to most games getting cheaper tickets through a mate at Nationwide, etc. and see how it plays out first.

Ditto no ST money for me until new ownership and a complete new broom
What are the trust doing? You would’ve thought they would be more active but it’s just radio silence

Had a thouroughly fun evening at the ice hockey last night, as did my kid... previously had season tickets there before he was born, at a time when I gave up my Town season ticket to do so. History might be repeating itself...

what time do they usually start? could one have both in better times or would it be a challenge to get over there?

Yup, used to be earlier face offs. Doable now, but used to get two adult hockey season tickets for the same as one adult Town season ticket, now the hockey is more expensive of the two! Adult and u15 season ticket comes to £700  |

The "let's go Wildcats" chant always struck me as a 45rpm record played at 33rpm with a distinct lack of enthusiasm.
Then again I might be thinking of a staged effort to support a local news feature.
Is face off a literal term when it comes to ice hockey?
Wonder if the ownership are losing any sleep over the football club being in contention for worst sporting outfit in the Borough. Is the basketball team still going?

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

Nah, they had to fold WB as their net spend was too high. |

Swindon Sonics still going as an U18 club apparently. Website still showing the roster from early 2000's & notable for the distinct lack of 7ft giants on the team. My favourite basketball name is still Meadowlark Lemon. |

It is, although I couldn't remember it until it was said. Tip off in basketball. |

Someone on Twitter has stated we have no full time medical staff. Down to someone coming in twice a week.
