Re: Gloucestershire football
Colchester have been given permission from the EFL to make their pitch shorter and narrower in order to cut out the worst areas of the surface to try and get games on for the rest of the season. total shambles, let me guess there may have been issues regarding draining but were ignored and built th...

Re: League One - clubs in crisis
There does seem to be an aloofness from Reading fans about the mess they're in. They seem to want to blame everyone and everything and unless it's helpful to them then you're the enemy. One guy on another forum has basically spent the last 24 hours completely slating Wycombe as if they've done it d...

Re: League One - clubs in crisis
Seems as though reading fans aren't too please with the purchase and some quite awful things being directed to the Wycombe hierarchy (on the socials)
with all due respect to Reading its hardly a football dynasty is it

Re: League One - clubs in crisis
Will that £25m be used to pay the projected £1m shortfall for this month...? Or has Dai just bought himself a yacht...? Sky Sports News reported that the training ground was owned by a different company to the football club (both owned by Dai Yonge) so I guess he could just by a yacht. Bearwood Par...

Re: League One - clubs in crisis
Wycombe are the football vultures circling above Reading at the moment, they appear to have purchased their training ground for what is likely very much below market value. Reading fans, unsurprisingly, are a little bit bent out of shape about this news. It's £50m worth of training ground. One of t...

Other teams are doing their bit to keep CTFC in L1. Honestly could not have hoped for a better set of results tonight.

How will it "make money "? Non matchday facilities like lots of other clubs do, if that's not going to (as you have implied) then we may as well give the lease back the council and they can build on it as CTFC are just going to be priced out of playing full time league football by the sou...
