I am loving the fact that one negative rumour has been jumped on, yet someone saying its 100% not true is being ignored

If you’re wondering if my statement is fact. I asked him directly this afternoon.

Yes,
I’ve said this plenty of times post Andrew Black.
The best thing this club could do is die a death and rise again as a phoenix club.
Start at the bottom and go again. Clear all the deadwood.
Play some new teams, visit some new stadiums. Hopefully have a bit of fun running through divisions.

Beats going to Colchester & Walsall every fucking year…

So that would actually make you go and watch that shite week in and week out?
it’s hard enough doing this in this shite league now, Wouldn’t want us to drop down anymore.
That is both a sobering and depressing thought.

AFC Swimbledon.

The first year would be great, but after that the reality would set in you fear.

Spot on mate. (This will sound snobbish) It’s shite having to go away to the Harrogate and Sutton’s (they’ll beat us tomorrow now) regularly and have to accept that this is our level when a even a small amount of smart investment in comparison to our stature in this league would have us out of it.

No team has a divine right to promotion based on size but we’re big enough in this division to generate enough funds to not have to be rolling out the “we’re struggling to compete line” (with the Wrexham size financial rivals aside)

I’d absolutely fucking love to start from the bottom and run through the divisions - being the big boys, the team everyone hates who wins every week*


*I appreciate starting at the bottom doesn’t guarantee that but as an example. I bet Rangers fans probably enjoyed spending a few years doing something other than having a two horse race with Celtic every year.

Depressing enough a team that pulls this amount of fans getting shafted by the lot running it.
Becoming seasoned under achievers and sick to death supporting this shite home and away.

This would actually make you go and support it?
Trust me a vast difference travelling week in and week out. Easy posting on a forum, rocking up the miles and cost is a different game.

I would hate every minute.
