BP1960 Report post Posted January 30 Alas, it looks like a couple of my striker recommendations won't be coming here now. A previous recommendion scored 2 on his away debut recently in Div One, so we probably weren't going to get him anyway. More info after the deadline.

When your dealing with educational Government funding paperwork....tippex is not allowed. Spelling mistakes have to be crossed out then initialled. ohhhh th ejoys not not missing that hahah However, I have been doing some Trust admin stuff on the new membership website. So you all might be getting Trust emails in your junk box in the next few days. 1)Those that have paid for membership in the last 12 months and have a members card 2) lapsed ones.....just need to make sure I have the wording right on lapsed ones re GDPR. Then I might have time to drag, drop and upload those stonemasonary reports onto the Trust site...anyone have the contacts for those that built Stonehenge? no? oh well.

Like how you arranged the lifetime membership or even if you still contribute....(no financial stuff like you millionaires bank account haha) but maybe the amount then I can get the financial person at the Trust to confirm this. Even if you have an original card issued at the time would help I have sent log in details for all paid members today.

Yes, plus 3 others, one of which could be going to a rival club and two who are available, but doubt now if they will come to our level. I was also told by an esteemed scouting friend Matt Rhaed may be available on loan from Lincoln, not everyone's cup of tea, but an upgrade on what we have now in his opinion.

Or has that fell through One has come good in the first team recently, so he looks out of the question now, the other is very highly rated now by his club after recent U23 displays, so cant see it happening. I have made no other recommendations since I highlighted them when they were under the radar. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My scouting sources are from outside the club, one high up the chain in the Premiership, and if I've not seen the players myself they recommend them to me Lang wasn't one of mine incidentally.
