[dusterman]

I would hope if it does or doesnt work we would get a statement

Well quite.

Didn't think you'd seen it, let me know when you have actually seen it, probably when the rest of us see it.

the first target has got to be immediate funding for football department - wages and all associated monthly costs ... incl. physio/medical ... all training facilities functioning

ball park figure 125k per month - but an initial start up first month of x2 that.

Plus all back pay owing and agreed t and c - salary for all

Plus immediate engagement with the commercial team to review sponsorship/advertising income forecast

I imagine all pre-existing funds (season ticket money/sponsors) have been drained away by previous owner ..

all proffesional services (law, accountancy, insurers) engaged.

I know if we went public we would raise 500k pretty quick ... how many have not bought a season ticket ?

I think it can be done ....

You’re boring everyone now.

It’s not possible, you’ve been told by multiple people how this is not feasible.

Ok this is a serious post amongst my Gems of laughter.

There is one stalwart at the club who although under serious duress is doing all she can to help down at RH.

Believe me the pressure she is under atm is untold with her position and age and what is being put upon her.

Being a keyholder and having to take flack every day whilst trying to keep her position within the club and her roles within it is far to much pressure IMO for such a young girl.

The thing is she loves the club and it has been her heartbeat for most of her life, she is Number 2 at SUFC ladies as well. I don't think i have seen or heard of many hours when she has not been working on behalf of the club, even on match days she is tireless in her application.

So when you think of people to praise at the club. Think of April Smith first.

I am proud to call her mum @Tinks, Tony, Simon and her friends.

Absolutely Cricko!

My daughter was mascot for the Chesterfield home game last year (1-2 loss) in March.

I have to say that despite the chaos around the club, April was sensational. She made Lily’s evening very special and one that she will never forget.

Can’t thank her enough for what she does.

Let’s hope she gets to keep making special memories for many more mascots to come!

With so much speculation and lack of statements, this is what's coming out of Roots Hall Weymouth.
I can confirm there are two new offers.
Ron has asked Adam Barrett to attend and oversee them.
The first bid is from a wealthy American consortium who breezed through the fit and proper farce.
The second one is i believe, more an offer of hope.

dont bite- he enjoys it- just ignore like the majority

Now come on, don’t underestimate RB. He’s been rustling up loads of support from wealthy SUFC fans, getting guarantees that they’d stump up £10k each, he’s been engaging solicitors and lawyers .. he’s done plenty of research.

Or ………. he’s been expecting other people to do all that stuff

Any chance of a quick rundown on today’s events.
Thinking something like:
There may or may not have been a meeting!
Ron may or may not have been there!
There’s definitely/possibly not been any statement from anyone!
AF isn’t Anton Ferdinand and JD isn’t Jason demetriou but they have been at the meeting, if there was one
Ron isn’t replying to Crate anymore

There’s nothing more to update other than a young lady called April is a legend is there

 

[Blue Yonder]

What do you suggest? Get RM on a speed dating session with alternative negotiators? Maybe a Naked Attraction format whereby RM picks the new negotiator by seeing their bare attributes a bit at a time?

The last thing needed is a negotiator RM approves of.

I had someone like you in mind as mediator…. Moderate, conciliatory, non confrontational and charming

April is truly a legend. Well done @Cricko for highlighting this.

 

[Strykr]

They have been down to check on the safety cert and according to TL there is nothing to drastic that has to be done.

Thanks to @lawrenceaustin there is a lot going on down there atm.

The "annual £400'000 spend" was bollocks then?

 

[Cricko]

Yep.

 

[class]

Can't we do something special for the lovely April ?

What about the other months?

 

[Chrisb]

Roots Hall is my home from home, I'd love to stay there. We have been brainwashed, over the years, into believing that a move to FF was the only way we could progress as a club.

We have been told time and time again by RM that a new stadium at FF is the only way forward for our club - now he has decided that to 'sell the opportunity' we stay at RH. Judging by the poll on SZ that is most supporters preference - staying at our beloved home plus RM not involved - the best possible outcome, so, so, hope it can happen.

The young lady that usually arranges the half-time challenge?

 

[CanveyCastle]

The young lady that usually arranges the half-time challenge?

yes, and entertains the mascots pre-match by givin them a guided tour and a skills session.

A tremendous asset for the club.

I back this, Jack is putting untold hours in trying to help a way forward for the club, you can knock him all you want but at least he is doing something.

Second this

if we could get our hands on the season ticket money we would be fine ....

April is also the key organiser of the Seniors SUFC Walking Football. Keeps all the old boys in check. She is very highly valued.
