I agree Trigs - I don't really care either. Suspect more and more people feel that way all the time. After all, 2002 was 24 years ago.

Never forgive, never forget and all that, but I can't invest too much emtional energy in all that
It’s Salford v Bromley tonight. If Salford win there’s a slight chance they might combine with Cambridge to knock the frannis out of the automatic spots by the final day. But there’s also a chance they might kick on and become champions instead.

Weird thing is, I no longer really care. Now that winkleman’s gone I don’t really care what happens to them.
Fair enough Nick but if anyone at the club is reading, the notice was about a month ago, how about another before Sunday?

Like you OI I have not seen anything from the club promoting our mascots fund raising efforts. His biggest cheer leader seems to be Aaron Paul the BBC London morning presenter.

TF - like so much other programmes falling by the wayside, FF was of its time. It was pretty redundant when the 12h30 kickoffs came in, and I bet that's what most people now watch.

Speaking of 12h30 kickoffs, off to Fulham v Villa on Saturday. At least I don't have to spend 5 hours driving to see Sasu cosplay as a professional striker.
Ah that’s a real shame but at the same time I can’t remember the last time I sat down to watch it so maybe the time is right.

Did anyone on here go to the Wolfpack thing last Thursday? I haven’t seen any talk about it and the club’s social media posts on the evening are getting no traction at all. I thought it looked like it could be a really good evening but couldn’t attend myself.

Whether we stay up or go down, the Club need a fairly hard-nosed review of its costs, player and non-player

Gimps, please erase if/when some rich bugger agrees to subsidise our operational costs ...
TS-it’s the same with all the smaller teams like us one bad run of injuries can scupper the whole season

That's the crux of our problem, we can field a decent side from 14 or so but after that we struggle.

Given we've lost 6 on the spin, conceded more goals than any other L1 team and will either go down or stay up by a whisker, I suggest it is unlikely that there will be a queue round the block to sign ANY of our squad - in or out of contract. Some of our squad I would keep for L2 but not L1. We have maybe 10 1st team squad players (inc. loanees) I'd like to keep, plus maybe 2 more if we are in L2. That leaves about ten who can go - sadly a fair few of these are contracted for next season.

It’s a hypothesis that the recruitment in the summer (and January) was heavily influenced by our budget or specifically lack of budget. Craig Cope and team did wonders last season L2 but can’t be expected to pull rabbits out of hats when they’re up against other L1/L2 clubs offering better deals.
23rd Apr 2026 15:39:26
[195.lo.gg.ed]
Two concerns out of that 1) if we do somehow manage to stay up are we to expect a worse squad in L1 next season based on being unable to replace our best players leaving/aging out? and 2) if we get relegated (you can make your own mind up as to how likely/unlikely that is) will we have a worse budget in L2 than we had last time?
Had a lovely break in Yorkshire, Dales & Moors, last summer. Was rather nice and the Nth York Moor railway Pickering-Whitby is probably the best railway line in England

Derth of away trips if we do go down, plenty if we stay up ...
Whatever happens, I hope we have a better summer recruitment than last year, although with our budgetary constraints there will be no room for error. Aside from Seddon, it wasn't a great window last summer. Bishop is average and the rest were poor. Only resigning players who were out of contract with us or previously on loan have been any good. It may be unfortunate or bad luck but when we have spent money on players (even if they worked with the current management team before) they have been disappointing (Davison, Kelly, Orsi, etc). As for loans, at least Stewart has finally surfaced but what a waste of time and money Brodi Hughes has been.

We lost at home to Wigan when they had not won away for about 18 months and we got lucky away at Huddersfield having Goodman in goal for them as they battered us. We had a full strength squad then. Now we are in tatters. My fear is if we end up in administration and get deducted points, it will be in League 2 and that will put us back in non league.
Oh and yes I got the replacement QR code email for my Wigan ticket as well so I don’t think it’s anything dodgy.

Yes while I’m looking forward to whenever we meet York next the attraction now is the city and the plethora of bars and eateries. Used to be a pleasant walk out through the streets to Bootham Crescent but now it’ll be a cab to a retail park same as too many grounds these days.

Still a good trip I’m sure and I do like the Yorkshire culture cos you can have a proper ding dong with someone and nobody pretends to be offended.
REPD - the King Power Stadium looks a bit of an identikit from the pictures I've seen but for me it would be a new ground and the opportunity to visit one now watching AFCW now we have stagnated (regressed?) is limited.
23rd Apr 2026 11:39:38
[86.lo.gg.ed]
I never went to Filbert Street either. I've been to York's new ground while it was being built, as a subsidiary of the company I used to work for did the M&E and I used that as an excuse to do a leadership site visit. Bland is an understatement and it is a good 3 miles out of town next to a shopping centre.
Hackford and Foyo are both under contract next season. This is a frightening prospect. Nelson is on loan and doubt he would want to stay. No idea about Sasu. I would happily see the back of all of them. Sasu has not been given the opportunity to develop with us and played in a multitude of positions. That, coupled with limited talent and a lack of physicality for someone so tall has killed his career.
23rd Apr 2026 11:32:39
[86.lo.gg.ed]
At least Ogundere and Johnson are both under contract as I fear a major rebuild will be required in the summer for financial and ability reasons.
Whatever division we are in next season, there is no place for Sasu, Hackford, Foyo and Nelson poor work rate, commitment and the inability to hit the target from 15 yards have been a big part of our demise.

If Browne plays in one of the next two games we could get something out of one especially if Omar could partner him up top.

But yes, want to play there in a League fixture next season. Something that is still very much in our own hands
It will be a shame if we go down but I'm pretty much resigned to it. If we do we deserve to. That's life. I would have liked to have visited the King Power Stadium next season. Bromley will be in the same division as Leicester next season. Think about that.

I want York to win the National League and for Barrow and Harrogate to stay up. York and Harrogate are nice places to visit and I just like going to Barrow for some reason. I suspect I will get to go to none of them if we go down.
