Only the 3 I’ve mentioned have been announced in writing across the clubs various platforms, the rest mentioned at a fans meeting that a minimum percentage of the fan base attended. Not one of the dozen new signings confirmed as yet. One of the new signings doesn’t know why that is but he definitely starts training on Monday.

I thought we might have more transparency from the club under the new ownership but just some words so far. We are 5 days from the start of training and the squad we have announced to the public is Aekins, Reynolds and Jones. We have apparently made around a dozen new signings, very strange to not announce any with season tickets being on sale. I’m not getting one anyway for the first time in a long time, I don’t rate or trust the head coach. Pleased with Handley’s investment but we should as fans remain cautious until proven otherwise.

Olpherts has signed. He was the top scorer in the championship this season. A much better option than Eden. Gale Olpherts Jeffery and Wynne (if he signs) are good wing options.

What exactly did we do with the £2m from WMDC? If it was spent on players was that allowed? Meanwhile the floodlights are awful to start with and that’s before half the bulbs that don’t work. The terracing is falling to bits, the car park is a safety hazard. Has there been ever been an official explanation where or if the WMDC money has been spent?

A new consortium of investors are coming in at Fev. Announced imminently. Some will be gutted on here.

Where is the clock and tackle count? Also the names on the back of the shirts are practically unreadable.

Can I just add. Fev’s pitch is full size and has been since the redevelopment of the new stands. The pitch was extended. The slope is not as bad because of that either.

So Hankinson has a broken back. Not sure how long that will mean he is out?

Likes of Gigot, Le Cam, Stone, seem the biggest rumours at the moment. Few others too.

The license system did great for club finances, a real revelation!!

No point arguing with this bloke Keighley.

That's right, but finish 4th and that team would have to win another game against a SL side in the 4th v 5th playoff to gain promotion. Its gonna be hard but its a better system than licensing for me, all games mean something. The 3rd 8 are playing to win a trophy also and to stay in the championship as the bottom 2 of the 3rd 8 get relegated and 2 get promoted from championship 1. I think this will be a success.

Martyn Sadler should be receiving a copy of the latest Fev accounts soon. Thought this guy was meant to be a respected journalist?

Its true, the match doesn't mean half as much as it should and as it would in a proper sport. Still be a great day though but no nerves whatsoever for that reason!!
