6m$ & Nick - noted. CW - sounds right too.

Reading back to last night's postings, I'm slightly surprised that fabs are still nervously looking over their shoulders, what with the form we're in and the points gap. Obv aware that football fans are of a "nervous disposition"

*on the superb… not and the superb

Well I don’t wanna get into it but our losses include salaries. But… to keep the tone lighter I have congratulated Michele directly (I don’t think she’d mind me mentioning her in this context) and the superb work she and whoever alongside have done in the past on converting bonds to equity/donations. Highly important work and a pretty successful amount converted over. No idea whether that work continues but either way it was and or is good stuff.

I think you can rest assured that your £3 is going into the black hole of losses not anybody's pocket Trigger.

Fish deffo played pre season in 86/7 but only one sub in those days so he probably had to mooch around in the reserves before his 2 loan spells

Oh was it my moral? I’ve got no problem with anyone earning interest on their bonds - that was the deal everyone signed up to 👍

Where did that come from Meadow? :-)

$6m dollar man I messaged Paul and asked him and that was a quote from his reply. He also said how welcome returning players are made to feel at the Lane

If a board member is getting interest on a bond, that doesn't worry me. At the end of the day, It's money to the club.

TF - as long as I get the ticket for Stevenage I'll live with it. Their prices are not Mansfield or Orient style rip off prices (hence I'm ducking Mansfield like I did Orient as my mini protest but I've already got my accommodation booked for Lincoln, Burton and Wigan), so even with the postage (which feels a bit OTT for what will no doubt be a 2nd class stamp and a cheap envelope its stuck on with the ticket inside, should it ever get posted). At the end of the day I have paid to see the match, not to receive a ticket, so if it gets lost they will have to resolve it one way or another. When everyone starts charging £30 a game I'll have to reassess my cut off point.

I thought the confirmation Fishenden didn't play in the first division was the quote "played at Huddersfield [where we won promotion in May 1986] but never kick[ed] a ball [in the] top flight.

Spit - yes Fish went out on loan twice in 86/7, but did he get a game for us as well?

I don’t mind so much given the finances but it might be nice to know who’s pocketing that money.

I can remember watching a match at plough lane ,then after going to Fulham to watch fishenden on loan debut.in 86.

As a regular away fan I can count of the fingers of more than one hand the number of times I’ve paid the £3 postage fee and then had to collect the ticket from the away ground ticket office anyway.

nick - Debate was whether Fishenden played in our first Div One season. Gould took over after that season had ended and Fish left on 1st July 1987. So still no nearer knowing if Fish played in Div One under Bassett in 86/7 season.

I see Stevenage away tickets are now on sale. Annoying that the only option is to have them posted out (presumably direct from Stevenage, who probably didn't want to pay AFCW a cut for administering the away sales). If there are delays or they don't arrive, given they are being bought from AFCW they will have to field all the enquiries but will then have to keep passing them on to Stevenage to investigate. I can see this turning into a shit show. Can't they be like every other club and send them to the away team to distribute or, even better, have e tickets?

If I recall correctly then the weekend L1 highlights said that Northampton hadn’t registered a single shot on target in their last two games (before Saturday - don’t know how they got on in that game) so it seems they’re out of sorts somewhat.

I know burton won but I’d say results have been pretty kind to us tonight. I watched Northampton v port vale and Northampton were awful they didn’t manage a single shot on target a bit like we were a few weeks ago.

Yay both Northampton and Rotherham lost - decent results for us tbh 👏

Bodo Glimt everyone’s new favourite darkest horse for the Champions League.

5-1

Burton escaped relegation and have done reasonably well since they sacked Robinson.

Inter losing at home to Bodo/Glimt and 4-1 down on aggregate
