Looking at Poppynet, it looks like one or two of them are beginning to see the bigger picture we warned them about - although they haven't considered the impact of the additional stadium rent and its associated terms as yet.

I wonder who will do the ground maintenance now - and whether they'll have the sort of issues with programme printers and caterers we saw.

I'd guess administration is threatened - but at least they might have the chance to look for a buyer whilst there is still an income stream, even if the Nene Park costs would make that a difficult challenge. I haven't noticed much sign of the assets being sweated yet - unless you count sweet and sour balls.

I can see into the future. :D (As can nearly everyone on this forum, who all predicted the same thing!)

From the K*ttering OWS
Due to current financial constraints and recent results the Club has no alternative than to offer the whole squad for immediate transfer.The players names are today being circulated through the normal channels and to the media.
Not looking good for them, I always thought 'Project NP' would fail but if I'm honest I didn't think it would go wrong this quickly, could that name change proposal be next, probably IL and KC's plan all along?

They have missed out on a lucrative payday by going out of the cup, as Sutton v Notts is now a TV game.

It just keeps on getting better. Are the footballing gods dishing out some kind of divine justice ?

I'm considering changing my homepage to Poppynet
