I really feel for them to be honest... How on earth a man like Batchelor can even come near a football club again is beyond me. Made a mockery of York City, turning them into a 'Soccer club' to appeal to Americans and involving them in racing somehow... Including a lovely kit which included a checkered flag: http://www.premiershirts.net/miscpics/York%20City%20Home%20Shirt%202002-03.jpgWe thought we had it bad! Poor sods. |

Unbelievable stuff, seems the League have poo poo'd the idea of the re-name but here's Batchelor's response: "In my experience of working with the League - and my observations of it since - they are likely to be underused, over-paid and short-sighted.
"If their opinion is that Mansfield Town can't be re-named Harchester United while in the Football League, then there is an easy solution - get relegated and then get promoted. http://www.chad.co.uk/stags/League-would-block-renaming-of.3926343.jp |

Unbelievable. Its not just 'his club' just because he's bought it.
These sort of people who brazenly admit that they are there to fuck a football club over and its fans for their own personal gain need to be taught otherwise. I hope he does get death threats. Just like Hicks and Gillett.
Being a lower league fan does seem to get more and more difficult. Money men who seem determined to trample on fans until they can completely rip the piss out of you.

Tell me Paul, What's Your Flava? He met her on Monday, took her to a club on Tuesday, they were making love by Wednesday and Thursday and Friday and Saturday and just chilled on Sunday. |
