Lol. Yeah I was just rereading that thinking “Would I watch that? Probably not”.

Indeed. It’s a dream.
I’d add another couple on reflection
- ground filled at somewhere around 30-40% capacity so it feels used and stuff but there are also plenty of empty corners
- a good few steps of standing terrace, preferably with barriers

Our away game at Poole next month is now a 1.00pm kick off, presumably to save on the electric.
I suspect many more games will switch to lunchtime kick offs where the away sides travel time allows.
I’m not opposed to the idea. Less drinking time before the game, but more after.

I think there would be a lot less west London around Champion Hill if mens team home games kicked off at 1pm.

Another away game has been switched to an early kick off.
Turns out is nothing to do with electricity costs. It’s so games don’t clash with World Cup games.
I was talking to a Wrexham fan, he was an official in the Trust days, on Saturday. They got an incredible viewing figure for a match shown live in the State's recently and are the tenth most searched for team on Flash Scores this year. There were a few other similar stats but I didn't memorise it.
The TV show is turning into a serious revenue stream it seems.

This week the score draws are plentiful
Haven't really been following this closely. My understanding was that it would only be available for midweek games, but looks like it launches on a Saturday.

Torn between the effect on gates, revenue and atmosphere and the glee at never having to schlep the 20 miles down the road for my team's midweek games in the middle of winter ever again.

Good to see the team from the east side of the creek prevail! Even if Fareham is still a PO postcode...
I know a man whose son is on Porchesters books. One of their players is on Football League money, funded by a sponsor not the club.
When I went to Porchester a few years ago it was close to one man and a dog territory, they regularly pull good gates now. Hopefully that will be enough to see them sustainable when the star man retires / the sponsor moves on. The area doesn't need another Blackfield & Langley-esque boom and bust.
I can't even begin to imagine where that number of cars were parked near to Porchesters ground mind....
The castle is well worth a visit if anyone ever hops the ground.

Well, that's obviously Brett Pitman.
Some interesting comments from the Dover Chairman. Also the Chairmen at Gloucester are walking at the end of the season and predict more will follow.
Looking at the other link one may be at Peterborough Sports where he seems to have burnt through very substantial sums only to be surprised the FA (not the league) demand a 3k capacity at Tier Two.
Could be a fun few months ahead
Edited to say it looks like Gloucester City are being placed into a separate company with the current regime keeping ownership of the ground. They've also made every game all ticket. More efficient apparently.

CLUB STATEMENT | CHAIRMAN TO STEP DOWN
Happy New Year in advance to you all. 2023 is shaping up to be a year of transformation for the club and I am looking forward to filling you in. First, I’d like to thank our Operations Manager, Dave Herridge for his service over the last 6 months. Understandably, an opportunity to run his own...

This sums up everything that's wrong about football at this level. Chairmen/owners jumping ship for a bigger or more ambitious club. What on earth was he doing at Hungerford in the first place? They're clearly punching above their weight at this level and will probably be relegated never to return for many years.

Great potential until there's an opportunity to take over a bigger club. (I believe he's actually a Nottingham Forest supporter.)
