Wouldn't they have just kept Carsley on already in that case? They could just say it's an awkward time to appoint a new manager, give him to the summer etc.
Not sure about that. You can't pick everyone's first choice but really they'd have to have already offended us to not be welcomed in surely? If it's Pressley I won't hold that season down here against him.
I put a quid in a vending machine at work and noticed it was blocked just inside the slot. Poked my key in to get the quid back, and long story short, I'm £2 up.
If he's not missing work I can't see a problem. Going home to see friends and family is way down the list of inadvisable things footballers can do with free time.
Wouldn't the York press say that kind of thing to talk up the new York manager, in the same way that Cody McDonald was reported as our number one transfer target?
That was largely my point. The implication that at least you'd just get 'genuine' fans with this theory, as if that'd make it all worthwhile. I'd give up completely if the club folded, I don't care where that places me on the authenticity scale.
The amount of people disgusted at leaving Highfield Road, I have trouble believing that more people wouldn't be disgusted about the club itself disappearing altogether. Rage at the owners may pique interest in whatever this new protest club is, but sustained interest? Can't see it.
I don't underestimate the fans, I just don't believe they're there. People quickly turned away from a team in the league, I really can't see the dark waters of non-league appealing past the novelty of reclaiming the club from money men.
Climbing back to wherever we belong from ground zero in 10 years is quite a reach, when you consider how many teams are relatively healthy and completely failing to do the same.
It's nice as a romantic ideal, but as actual reality? I don't see it. I'd be flabbergasted if the majority of people...
