A grand a year without promotion. Must say though, what I saw of Rowe when he was at Droylsden, I'd have never thought he'd make it at league level. Then again I never thought he'd be scoring so many even at Fylde's level. Not too disappointed we've been knocked back. I've seen him play for Fylde a few times, he's got an amazing shot and decent skills but lacks movement. There's a good chance he'd struggle at League 1 level. Previously, Fylde's owner said they would turn down £500k for him, so I think we've fallen a bit short.

Secondly after asking you and a few others directly to come and see him personally about your grievances have you chased Simon Corney up on going to meet him and possibly giving him a piece of your mind on this issue?

I'm as much (or as little?) a fan of ChaddySmoker as the next person but......... I'm even less of a fan of OWTB Rule 831 whereby a negative Corney/OAFC/Trust/anything opinion or concern isn't valid unless the person goes and has it out with Corney (or whoever) face to face.... hashtag bollocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I don't expect everyone's problem to be pandered too. I only say this regarding Corney because he actually appealed to CS directly. Now if ChaddySmoker doesn't want to take this to the trust or Corney then that's his prerogative I just feel he'd more likely find an answer if he took the more direct approach.

Why? Corney is a silver tongued merchant who could sell paintings to the blind. Why should people, who have got their eyes open, willingly rush to him just to get charmed again?

Midsblue Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Need a new signing buzz this week ahead of pre-seasons. A new "Ripley" is a must but nothing excites me more than a striker, a winger or an attacking midfielder. Some spark, some creativity and the promise of goals. If we're now buying players then hopefully we can see secure a hidden gem from the league below or non-league or use the cash on wages and some experience with a goal-scoring track record. I'm sick of looking down the table and after the last two seasons of uncertainty, there is a buzz of stability and progress Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are yet another who looks at matters in the wrong way. (Probably still sulking at me?) I do not have a grievance. I inform this board of matters which they may not be aware of, eg Necarcu. If there was good news then I would post it but there usually isnt. I might comment on the implications of certain Company decisions 'in my eyes only' but I leave it up to posters to come to their own conclusions. Mr Corney is sole owner (yes really he is) of the football club and can run it in any way that he sees fit, despite anything we may say. He can postpone the declaration of figures of OAFC (2004) Ltd by another 3 months as he did last week. People should be aware of it. That does not mean that I have to take a vow of silence nor mutely agree with his management. A meeting with him would be/was a complete waste of time.

deyres42 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Stock answer from the doubters - any meeting would be a waste of time. With your superior knowledge you should relish the chance to go in there and trip Corney up. If you don't do it for yourselves then at least do it for us.
