Re: [ Sat 18th Feb ] v Hednesford Town, KO 3pm SLPDC HOME

Attendances have been poor overall since we moved to Hayden Road. I can’t quote any figures, as the attendances don’t seem to be stated on match reports from last season. A few weeks ago someone posted on a Facebook group encouraging people to come and watch a game, which got mixed results, most re...

Re: [ Sat 18th Feb ] v Hednesford Town, KO 3pm SLPDC HOME

To Blame the old board is a cop out from ourselves taking any responsibility for the problems, the Fan base was totally apathetic as well. I think the movement Ralph decided to stand down it started the snowball rolling down the hill with every body just looking at each other and paralysis setting ...

Burgess also didn't rate fellow midfielder Jordan Henderson, and ran "HendersonWatch" for some time. I guess multiple England Caps, European Trophies and Domestic trophies have highlighted how misguided that was.

Re: [ Sat 18th Feb ] v Hednesford Town, KO 3pm SLPDC HOME

It seems like Hednesford are in a fair bit of turmoil, with an attempt to buy their ground being abandoned and their main backers stepping down and offering the club for free to credible people. https://www.hednesfordtownfc.com/2023/02/chairman-and-vice-chairman-to-step-down-at-the-end-of-the-22-23-...

Re: Bogdan Marian

Answering a slightly different question, I've had a quick look at the number of debuts awarded each season - and Dave is right that the Westley season is the closest to the current season - there were 34 debuts that season (2006/07), whereas there have been 39 so far this season amongst the 46 playe...

Re: [ Tue 24th Jan ] v Basford Utd, KO 7:45pm SLPDC HOME

Don’t mean to be negative but have you seen the temperatures . Monday night -3 ,won’t go above 2 (foggy no sun) Tuesday and -1 at kickoff . It does seem a bit less cold today, but lets hope its an easy decision either way about whether its on or off. A Womens match that was abandoned yesterday is m...

Re: [ Sat 7th Jan ] v Ilkeston Town, KO 3pm SLPDC AWAY

Nice to see Lee Tomlin did not overdo his goal celebration and his tweet wishing the club good luck. He probably appreciated the Diamonds fans applause when he went "out". That's good to hear. Although one of my favourite RDFC players, I could understand the criticism he got those 14 year...

Re: P’boro Sports in trouble

I think the costs of operating a club at Step 2 are quite an issue. Gloucester City seem to be in a similarly difficult position - https://www.gloucestercityafc.com/post/ ... -step-down

Re: [ NEW MANAGER ] Chris Nunn

To answer my own question about increasing a lottery stake, it's very easy. Assuming you are already a lottery member you can just email afcrdteambuilding@outlook.com and ask them to sort it for you. If you want to join the lottery for the first time there is a link on the home page of the OWS, or g...
