If Justin stays I will have a lifesize poster of him in my room for ever.

I agree but as has been said over and over again, why would he, he's got no squad and no way of getting one currently and chances are even if we do survive and can be in any league as RDFC then he has a incredibly difficult task of creating a squad capable of competing in that league completely from scratch with no resources, I guess the only way he'll stay is if the Beasants go, perhaps that's what he's waiting for cause I'm amazed he's even still here now.

Obviously I hope Justin stays but remember he has to think of his own future too, however loyal he feels to RDFC.

How long can he keep waiting, not getting paid, to see if the Club survives.

Since when did Matt Banyard leave?

I just sent him an email and got an automated reply saying 'he no longer works here'

IIRC Friday 25th March but he was helping out the Club at the remaining two home matches.

He's taken up a new job in Nottingham to be nearer to his girl friend.

Matt officially left at the end of March to take a job nearer to his degree subject and nearer to his girlfriend in Nottingham.
