It also usually keeps us above Morecambe, but don't think we're not grateful .

That is very much the story i heard, So i reckon the standing in the game that J.F.H. has, compared to our managers, then the likelihood is the ref would take more notice of JFH.? And before our lot start, this aint a pop at J.C. its just common sense.

Looking at JFH's c.v. he has only experienced football in the rarefied heights of the European top leagues where heated pitches are the norm. He needs to lower his standards a bit to deal with opponents less blessed with moolah at the more deprived level in which we and Morecambe operate. By the way, Morecambe Red, what happened to your Far East shining knights with the big investment you were telling us about?

(1) We have a bigger squad this season from an increased playing budget. That is when your manager is given more money to recruit players than he had in the previous season.
(2) We are developing our own training ground and facilities at a base within Morecambe. The drainage work was done last Summer and passed Kevin's test !
(3) Our Chairman who spends more time in China than England expects us to be selling more Morecambe FC replica kit in China than here within a few years.
(4) Plans are being drawn up and price estimates sought for an extension at the rear of the home terrace.
(5) We have never been in the High court to fight any winding up orders for none payment of P.A.Y.E. etc.
(6) We have covers for the entire playing surface for helping to keep the frost away.
Listening to Coley on the Radio on Sunday it sounded like paying your players their December salaries might be difficult after the Burton postponement and the loss of around £6k which Burton fans would have brought.

The endless knocking of Stanley people (staff, management and players) who are almost certainly trying their best in pretty difficult circumstances, and come to that of anyone who tries to provide an opposing voice of reason, is really grinding me down lately. This website used to be fun to follow - these days its just getting vicious.

To be perfectly honest, if I'd known that that pitch was still frozen and there was to be another inspection at 1:30, I'd not have bothered travelling at all. It doesn't take a genius to work out that frozen soil isn't going to thaw at temperatures of 1 degree.
Mind you, I'd agree that this forum isn't what it was. That's why I don't bother with it as much nowadays.

Thing is its gone down fer many reasons, Jase got banned, one lad joined the navy, a couple at least died, but if everyone took your way Tin Monkey there wouldn't be a Stanley Forum.
