Re: Southport 1-1 Boston - Match Thread
To be fair Adams is a winger, and played wing back for Dundalk, which is good for us going forward. On Connor, it’s clear he has not developed in the way the club had hoped a la Baker and Duffy. He was always likely to be released in the summer, so, given the finances and his frustration not to star...

Re: Southport 2-1 Blyth Spartans
What were the Chairman and Manager supposed to do? Lie, bury their heads in the sand etc, etc. They had the guts to tell the truth and i suggest people look at what the owner of Peterborough Sports has said if he gets no financial help. Gloucester joint owner Alex Petheram said a couple of days lat...

Re: Southport 2-1 Blyth Spartans
Can you point me to where the board said they have no intention of taking the club any further?

Re: Southport 2-1 Blyth Spartans
THISAbsolutely bewildering that people may have chosen to stay away in response to their club admitting that money is very tight. If you’re not willing to put your hand in your pocket every other week to support your own club when it needs it then why should anyone invest?

Re: A dose of reality
Are you proposing we spend crazy money? Me? No not at all. I just don't see the point of existence for the sake of it. The Q&A and the style of play on the pitch all comes across as tired and dated. I think we all knew the score after Carver left last season and wasn't replaced. There must have...

A dose of reality
I don't want to reprise what's been said on other threads, but I thought it might be useful for some to look at the financial situations of other non-league clubs. The grim reality is that there are lots of clubs heavily-laden with debt who are attempting to chase the sun. It's not a level playing f...

Re: Q&A with Ian and Liam
Asking people to part with their hard earned cash to watch a team/club basically stagnate at best with no will or desire to try and be upwardly mobile and openly admitting it is going to see attendances drop at a rate of knots. I won't be going again as stands after hearing that and I certainly won...

Re: Q&A with Ian and Liam
The lads in the JC get behind the team every week....and have diverted from the budget at least £1500 per home game for security. That's more than the difference between having the star striker you crave, and not.

Re: Q&A with Ian and Liam
Supporters Trusts are Community Benefit Societies and are not to be treated as a cash cow to raise operational funds for the club. .... rather than to throw money at a privately owned limited company. My view is that the point of a SFC trust must work with the club to ensure its viability, represen...

Re: Q&A with Ian and Liam
For an idea of what we're up against, this Twitter account is very interesting: https://twitter.com/BenPearson1997 Peterborough Sports lost £264k in 21/22, as they won promotion via the play-offs to the Conference North. Wages were 110% of total annual turnover. Total debts of £348k. Of which, £115k...

Re: Q&A with Ian and Liam
Maybe instead of the moaning, some on here could ask themselves what they can do to help the club in this moment of need.

Correct. The hysteria on here, and elsewhere on social media, is baffling.Ralphy Rylance wrote: ↑Tue Feb 21, 2023 5:04 pm I suppose we could have let them turn up, play the game then feigned surprise when the showers weren't working after the game. But we're better than that.
The club have done the right thing - why are they getting pelters?

Re: Darlington 0-0 Southport - Match Thread
Strong point. Crap ground, crap pitch and crap weather. Had a couple of good chances ourselves but point was fair. Tony Mac was probably our MOTM. Hmami went off injured.

Re: Blyth Spartans 1-0 Southport - Match Thread
Two disallowed goals that were onside, and pretty much a stonewall penalty turned down.
Got to feel for the lads, and the fans that travelled. Tough cards to be dealt. Again.

surely these game-on-game horrendous officiating decisions have to turn in our favour eventually!

Re: Liam Interview 21st January
Staggered to learn about what Ian and Claire have had to face. If you’re one of the muppets abusing them on social media, pack it in. You’re not Southport fans.
