    Better use of the loan market.

    Kaspers Gorks, national team captain, and fairly recent premier regular for 2 teams, last transfer fee 900k, has just gone to Colchester on loan from Reading. The U's wage contribution? Nowt. Dolan could well be Readings manager this week, we have to look at such things. We must be well...

    Grimes latest.....?

    I hear tonight from a good provider of previous info, that it is NOT Swansea in the box seat, but 2 championship clubs. The fee mentioned was considerable, but to reach circa 1.75 a bunch of criteria will need to be met. No loan back, but the deal will not happen until very close to the window...

    A message to the Trust board

    Firstly, mods, my apologies for re-posting a duplicate of a message I posted late last night. I have received a couple of PM's suggesting I re-post as a new thread, as it may have raised some interesting points, but was a little 'lost' at the back end of the Twitter thread. Please feel free to...

    Jon Challinor

    Released by York, on very low wages, would love to stay in the league. Has a little experience, and plays 2/3 positions. Disregarding the 10 or so mentions in the faves thread. Don't be surprised :-)

    Open meeting, or EGM?

    As RW's thread has been smuggled out of the harbour, and pushed out to sea in the middle of the night, I think this vital issue should be addressed properly. It seems that the time for fudge, committee, steering groups, and silence is over. As a fan, and trust member, I would like either a) an...

    A cold wind of change is blowing...

    Some interesting threads currently running. Firstly, and I hope you don't mind me being critical here Rae, but I thought your thread was a little dis-ingenuous. I respect, and like reading the vast majority of your posts, but your op struck me as a 'drum banging' exercise. Of course, whilst many...

    Rare 80's pre season + friendly programmes.

    Hello, I picked up a few probably fairly rare mid 80's pre season friendly programmes at the weekend. Before listing on the bay, wondered if anybody here needed any of them? Freight Rover - 26.11.86 Home V Bristol City. 4 sides, 1 vertical fold, otherwise clean. Freight Rover 20.1.87 Home V...

    Pasoti trust chairman - Tisdale for Argyle..

    Well, Mr Webb would like Tis (or similar) as the new Argyle manager 8-) Radio Devon early this morning. Mad as fish the lot of them...

    We never wanted him, YOU loved him, and now you don't want him :-)

    Big Billy Kee......Off to smell the stale ale at Burton Albion. Wow BTI, your confidence was so, so misplaced wasn't it?

    Anybody know much about card hacking/phising?

    So get this. The other half has child tax credits paid into a savings account, with online acccess, and a cashcard. She went to draw some out earlier, but cupboard was bare..logged in, and entire contents had been withdrawn at 7.30am on Monday morning, in Buckinghamshire. We had just got up then...

    Jonesy in demand...

    I hear from a well placed source, that our soon to be ex keeper, stands a good chance of a decent move this summer, and maybe even better than the posh in the championship.. Get this, and I did say 'what really?' but Bolton Wanderers are about sell Al Habsi to Wigan, and have had Jonesy watched...

    Multi's - Amnesty?

    I'm often confused by people answering there own threads by using multi's, its annoying, and pointless. Could we have an amnesty, and allow everybody who has multiple personas to throw them in the ring, and everybody just revert to one username? Maybe the mods could allow on probation the...

    Dean Bowditch, pretty good source..

    From the same agent who told me that Jamie Cureton was coming (after us showing an interest in a loan when he went to Shrewsbury) tells me that Dean being with us next season is a 'cert' if Yeovil are relegated, and a 'probable' if they are not. Strong connection with Marcus of course. Same...

    Ryan Harley transfer rumour.

    From exactly the same source that told me we had made enquiries about Jamie Cureton (agent with links to Norwich) told me tonight that at least 3 championship clubs are considering making offers in January. Norwich, Reading and Bristol City are 3 he named. Bristol (apparently) went for Kaliffa...

    Jamie Cureton

    Is looking like an inspired signing. I was puzzled by the fairly negative reaction when he was on trial with us. Still a quality player in L1, and will score 15 goals this season, and will be a far from regular starter. I think Mr Tisdale has done really well replacing the bulk of the forward...

    URGENT appeal - Save BTI, BBC1, after Songs of Praise.

    Lennie Bennett will present a celebrity backed charity appeal after Songs Of Praise today, as the world of comedy gathers round to try and save one of their, own, their very own comedy brothers. Barrington Titanium Ingenious was voted the '43rd funniest man in Torquay' just last month, and the...

    Should we sack Tisdale? Serious question..

    Is it time to think what would have been unthinkable just a few short months ago? Has Tis been found out in L1? For whatever reason, things are bleak, and not looking likely to get better any time soon. Would the honeymoon period that a new manager often brings be of any use to us at the...

    Ok, I admit, City are shoite...

    No really, I do. We didn't strengthen properly, and have relied on L2/Conf standard has beens or never will be's. I am ashamed to admit that we have no width, are negative to the point of suicidal away from home, and our midfield efforts rely totally on Harley deciding if he can be arsed to...

    Those unsure about donating to 'Pitch In'...

    From talking to a few friends who are trust members, and reading a few people on here who appear to think similarily, I am unsure about increasing the amount of money I give the club. 1) The lease situation needs to be made public. 2) The redevelopment plans, at least an interim report should...

    Jamie Cureton loan enquiry made?

    Now, just slightly more than idle gossip, a text from a Naaarch supporting fan who is usually in the know says that we have made a one month loan enquiry, with options to extend until the end of the season. And if we haven't, I think we should. Ultra impressive record at this level, and no...
