Because he's a publicity-hungry show-off who likes flaunting his wealth. A lot of people in places like Billericay probably look up to someone like him and admire him. Londoners look at someone like that and think "flash git"or worse.
And according to yesterday's NLP they apparently went for John Still, who is on the verge of taking Dagenham into the Confernence National play-offs and possibly back into the Football League.
What odds on Tamplin attempting to sign John Terry in the summer?

He was on the non-league show podcast this week. Says £20K is limit until promotion from the national league! Happy with squad now and no more signings needed. This squad will win national south (could be right on that). Swears by this squad and he and his players were "crying" in dressing room after losing to us.

I wish Gavin cared as much as Glenn. I sometimes think the fact he's a proper football manager gets in the way of his pastoral care towards the fans. On Saturday for instance, as the team was leaving the pitch at half-time, he refused to let me take his picture while holding my dog. I couldn't sleep all weekend I was so upset.

"Best season ever at Billericay." So better than seasons when they've won a championship or the FA Vase at Wembley?

I agree it should but does that apply at this level?

I wonder if that debt will be dumped on the football club?

I don't think it does apply, no. And in any case I think you can have a business go bust and still pass the test. It's only if you've been barred from being a Director - which wouldn't happen to everyone whose business went bust - that you'd fail the test. But even then the FA would find a loophole for you...
However that technicality still shouldn't stop people singing "You know what you are. You know what you are. A Fit And Proper Person. You know what you are."

It's obscene that company directors can get out of paying their tax and yet still be at liberty to slosh around shitloads of money to pursue their egotistical dreams.

Ryman League clubs are subject to a Financial Reporting Initiative though seems a bit vague from the rules as to how this applies in respect of so called Financial Fair Play where clubs have to show how they finance things such as player wages from income. One of the ways round this is for owners to provide sponsorship such as stadium naming rights. Believe Man City fell foul of this with the Etihad sponsorship of their ground so would the AGP sponsorship of Billericay's New Lodge ground fall into the same area? Who knows?

Seems to my mind this is a shell company to shift unsecured debts from one entity to another to avoid paying them. Now where have I seem that before? Hornchurch or Mick Woodward-era Grays perhaps?
