So Up Yours National League

The decision to give us an unconditional licence was almost certainly an administrative error rather than a board decision so if there’s anyone on that list to blame it would be Ives rather than Thompson. More probably it was someone under Ives who screwed up.

However his secretary or whoever it was actually did us a favour as it allowed us to get off on a technicality when the NL would have been well within their rights to demand a bond at the start of May.

We’re also in no position to criticise administrative errors having failed to post accounts on time and bafflingly failed to provide evidence of funding in time when it was requested.

So how about we wait until we’ve actually demonstrated we’re a professional outfit to criticise the NL for their amateurism.

nah mate! :-)

Don't mention the paper for the fax machine.....
 
Unfortunately the NL hierarchy have always been amateur in every aspect in the way they chose to operate, nothing to suggest that will change.
