Re: Pressure telling on Marcus Law?
I have a friend who is a Kettring fan, he told me last year that Law was putting money in and my friend doesn't like it.
I guess if you struggle in the league you may have a job getting rid of a manager who is putting his money in, things will no doubt turn ugly in the future.
It's a bit strange though it's like paying a company to let you be a voluntary worker,
Anyone ever heard of any other club doing that?

- Play it out from the back.
- 1 up front.
- Man gets one good result via a new manager bounce and thinks he's Pep Guardiola.

Re: Pressure telling on Marcus Law?
I bet there’s loads of clubs which are in that position, managers giving a bit of their money away as goal bonuses for example. You have a manager in conference say on 100k a year and your budget nearly all used up, so you get a striker in and say between us I will pay you £150 a goal , what’s that £3k for 20 goals ? You’d be up the table with that and is good for your CVAdrian wrote: ↑Sat Jan 19, 2019 1:09 am I have a friend who is a Kettring fan, he told me last year that Law was putting money in and my friend doesn't like it.

Haha true, the chairman might feel guilty to sack a manager like that,diamondsteve wrote: ↑Sat Jan 19, 2019 7:50 amI bet there’s loads of clubs which are in that position, managers giving a bit of their money away as goal bonuses for example.

Didn't the fa bring in some new bonus rules a few years ago though?

It was rumoured that Graham Westley used to do something similar in his earlier years, possibly when he was first at Stevenage.
A true outlaw finds the balance between the passion in his heart and the reason in his mind. The outcome is the balance of might and right.

Re: Pressure telling on Marcus Law?
Farnborough I think although he was the Chairman, major shareholder and first team Manager at the time so it was a little bit different to what's currently happening at K*ttering. You may recall Farnborough played Arsenal in the FA Cup and although drawn at home, controversially switched it to Highbury for no reason other than financial gain. You can still find articles online that suggest the club never saw any of the money made from that tie and Westley left the club days after.TwinkleToesTomlin wrote: ↑Sun Jan 20, 2019 4:32 pmAdrian wrote: ↑Sat Jan 19, 2019 1:09 am I have a friend who is a Kettring fan, he told me last year that Law was putting money in and my friend doesn't like it.

I think it's fair to say Farnborough, once a regular in the Conference, have never recovered from that episode.

Re: Pressure telling on Marcus Law?
When Westley was mysteriously "sacked" as our manager, there were whispers that the main reason was that he wished to put money into the club to become some sort of owner/manager. Obviously a certain Mr Cousins had other long term "plans" and refused the offer!!TwinkleToesTomlin wrote: ↑Sun Jan 20, 2019 4:32 pm

The rest they say is history..........

Looking back the statement given is bizarre/shady to say the least!
