Re: [ Sat 15th Oct ] v Redditch Utd, KO 3pm SLPDC HOME

Saturday is also the Ladies Day event. (Diamonds Ladies & Girls teams in attendance) https://twitter.com/AFCRD/status/1577690084014538752 We don't seem to get much news on how well these teams are progressing these days. Perhaps a general update on the OWS is in order, as since 2016/17 there ha...

Re: Richard Maxwell Appointed Manager

I think we need to know which board members are behind this appointment. Regardless of personal opinions, to give the job to someone without any kind of pedigree above step 7 on the back of one win seems to be failing to learn from (very recent) mistakes.

That is correct - his first for the club was in October 2020 in the defeat at Coalville just before the 2020-21 season stalled.

Re: [ Tue 11th Oct ] v Nuneaton Borough, KO 7:45pm SLPDC HOME

Until we get a new manager on board, and they have managed to bring a significant number of Step 3 quality players in, using their contacts, reputation and status in the game, it won't really matter who is in temporary charge. We are now down to two players who played in the corresponding game again...

Re: [ Sat 1st Oct ] v Hednesford Town, KO 3:00pm SLPDC AWAY

Hednesford have signed 2 experienced senior players today. That's just not fair. I guess they have the budget and contacts to do so. One wonders if our inabilities to find good local talent coincides with the departure of Mark Hedges in his Football Liasion role on the board - he spent so many succ...

Re: [ Sat 17th Sep ] U23s v Corby White Hart Locos, KO 2:30pm NCLP HOME

This has been drawn to my attention but I am not sure it fully answers all the questions that fans may have regarding funding etc when we must have one of the smallest playing budgets in the division and whilst I note the continued desire of the Board to place such emphasis on Youth development and...
