Sold out main stand. Was hoping to check it out. Was there any season messsage from the Chairman? Notably quiet over summer and I don’t think he was there today.

So would that be paul casson, ? As does it really matter or not if he is there or not? His son who is m.d is doing a good job in my opinion so leave him be, he seems to have got on top of things and is and will turn us around, long may this continue

Thanks Bingo, no worries, was just was going to get one if there were any there. Yes Tommy that would be Paul Casson. Just wondered if he’d sent out any pre-season message to the fans. As he has done since he came here. He can still be mentioned can’t he?

Doing a good job? how much are they paying you?? we barely scraped above relegation last year, lost Moussa who was our best defender, gone part time. In the past we've been promised this and that (how much was wasted on the architecure of the "new" stadium development?) yet little has been delivered. Yeah we did well today but we played a team who only got promoted last year from the southern leagues. Lets be honest, Paul Casson cared about the town for obvious reasons, now hes passed on the mantle, why would Andrew care?? apart from the money.

We haven't gone part time
When the Cassons walk away if they do it It will have been a very expensive experience for them.

And often teams coming up do quite well especially at first

As for our best defender leaving he was out of contract or do you think they should have offered him mega money to stay

Of course if you have a couple of million to buy the cassons out go for it.. You'll need plenty of cash too to keep the club going..

It was his choice to take over and commit to 2nd division football with a new/updated stadium. Theres an old saying, promise little and deliver much, what have we had exactly? apart from the odd beer tent here and there. Dont get me wrong i really enjoyed the game today, but its one game against a recently promoted team.

Yeah and they have made massive mistakes and lose money through not extracting enough but let's not kid ourselves had they not come in we would have gone under and without there involvement even with a lower budget we would go under

Without "their" involvement, 15 quid a ticket, todays crowd was 1300, thats £19500 not to mention the bar, burgers and corporate. Dont know about the council tax etc, can anyone spread light on this? all i'm saying is, Paul Casson came in promising the world, and nothing has changed, as Andrew said in his pre-season statement, the club will not live beyond their means.

Yep this for me, and do i work for the cassons, they have made mistakes and i do think they have learned a harsh lesson and i respect them for still sticking with it, i wish i did work for them to be honest as there getting it right now and trying. Think we will be fine then push on when trust is there, full of [SwearFilter] gob shites on here, And it's only my my opinon right or wrong chicken

Can’t believe that after a great afternoon performance and result that people still bitching about the Cassons broken promises etc.Just let it go for 24hours and enjoy the moment of us being top of the league cis it won’t last long.I bought prog Think the pre season article by PAUL Casson is ok.Andrew yes made mistakes but learning and trying to improve things.How long do you want him to walk over hot coals?Give it a rest we could have a an entertaing season here pull together .
