That’s part and parcel of us becoming a self sustaining club unfortunately this will happenBuy out clause of around £120k I’ve heard and can double or triple his wages. We stand no chance. They get crowds of less than 3000 yet we can’t compete with these teams.
Yep I get that mate, do feel that we could do with an update from Cosu of short term plans.off the field things are improving yet on it we seem a bit stagnantThat’s part and parcel of us becoming a self sustaining club unfortunately this will happen
Yeah but their owner Sir left-a-lot vegan bamboo shirt does have a few quidBuy out clause of around £120k I’ve heard and can double or triple his wages. We stand no chance. They get crowds of less than 3000 yet we can’t compete with these teams.
There’s being top payers and there is taking the mick for this level and I would suggest FGR will offer him a stupid wage that we will never match and quite rightly soSo we are averaging around 7500 at home and harry is adored by the fans why oh why go to a club with zero to offer..
Oh apart from more £££££s
We need to be top payers to hold onto our top players and why can’t we compete
As Barnet are also provingNot sure what 7,500 fans has to do with anything. They're mega rich, by far the biggest budget in the league.
I know this is a harsh truth but if you're not playing in front of 20-30k, there's not much difference playing in front of 7k or 4k, particularly if there's an extra grand a week in your pocket to cushion the blow.
And the reason we can’t compete is because of all the dept left behind by the previous owner. Apparently every week more depts we’re found. Every draw in the buildings had unpaid bills. We should be so grateful to still have a football club to support. It’s going to be a slow process to pay our depts and get the team up the pyramid. Patience and good luck is what we need. What we don’t need IMO is the support turning on the consortium, management and players five games into a new season.Buy out clause of around £120k I’ve heard and can double or triple his wages.

Would be surprised if they are panicking unnecessarily as much as some of our fans are.I just wonder how much COSU are regretting their purchase. They come in after hell in getting the deal done, Fans already started complaining, and now the small squad is crumbling with injuries and what appears to be 2 exits, I'm also really surprised no one has shown interest in GSM.
