My guess is health and safety will say area surrounding stadium isn't safe and it'll be called off

The club still has to many bad players like this bloke who we haven't got shot of which means when we're struggling for injuries we're left to rely on people like him rather than having real solutions in the squad.

When you see it not working for 3/4s of the game surely you stop ?

Must learn to kick! Getting better. Getting worse by todays standards, didn't help we were playing the long ball non stop mind didn't see much wrong with it myself. We weren't playing longball non stop either. give over, every ball especially second half was launched to Carroll. Krul is always going to be doing that when he has the ball though. The 4 best chances we created in the 2nd half didn't come from long balls either. He didn't need to many times though, especially one very annoying point when the right hand side was all empty where an easy ball to Simpson would have given us a break. He held the ball up and went for long ball to Carroll yet again. Not his fault it seemed to be our tactics but still his kicking wasnt good today he seems to be learning from Harper which isn't good.

I'd rather he missed Chelsea, we're going to get tonked regardless Like Arsenal ?

I can imagine this £30,000 state-of-the-art scoreboard, which seems to be the main thing Rich is providing, as a total white elephant in a couple of seasons' time. He has plans to flog there merchandise in America apparently which is set to make them a small fortune.

Sounds like the shit spreader on twitter to me

Couldn't drop Simpson especially after the match at the weekend

For example Steve Bruce and Don Hutchinson

This is my point

Clever bit of work this by the mackems. Get it in the papers that we're getting shot of CH just before our match against them on Sunday. Makes the players a little wary about what is going on and gets the fans all worried as well. Once a few rumours get started bets will start flowing which helps back up the rumours even more. Why didn't we think of it lol

Some quotes: Tom Donnelly, director of Billingham Town FC, said: “The club committee knew absolutely nothing about this agreement until it was brought to our attention by Hartlepool.” Mr Donnelly said the agreement means Hartlepool is effectively charging Town rent for playing on its own ground. He said: “Before the agreement was signed, without our knowledge, Hartlepool were paying us to use our ground. “We are going to try our best to keep the club going and we have been overwhelmed by support from clubs across the region.” Since the row erupted, the club has been working with the Northern League to try to resolve the problem with the club. Mike Amos, chairman of skilltraining ltd Northern League, said: “As a league, we are desperate not to lose one of our best clubs that has tried very hard over the years to establish themselves in the town. “That said, they have real difficulties because there are a lot of huge issues which need to be resolved before this gets to court on May 18.” A statement issued by Hartlepool United said: “Despite several warnings to Billingham Town that Hartlepool United would seek and act upon legal advice if the debt owing to Hartlepool United was not paid, Billingham Town continued to ignore payment demands and also continue to play on the pitch at Bedford Terrace, which Hartlepool United was maintaining at their cost. “For the sake of clarity, Billingham Town were fully aware of the terms of the agreement that they had signed and, despite claims by them that the agreement was signed by a former director, in Hartlepool United’s opinion, it remains valid.”

From what I've read seems very much bully boy tactics and not just for cash reasons maybe ?

Billingham it's about 45 mins from Newcastle, same league as Whitley Bay, Spennymoor and West Auckland

Portsmouth got a thread so I thought these deserved it. It appears that pro football club Hartlepool have issued a winding up order again amateur and volunteer ran football club Billingham town football club. How low can a club go. You would think football clubs would look out for each other in the lower leagues especially local clubs but it appears not. The case has currently been adjourned as Hartlepool have decided they want negotiations with BTFC but still it's crap.

Heard people saying they can't ring up to get tickets either has to be done over the net. Is this normal cause it's a bit crap really.

June 2010 would mean he's out of contract

Has he played any level for Spain? Just hoping for 5 years in England then we have englands new left back

I'm confused by that cause he had a 3 match suspension which is why he's missed most of the games because he was on the fringe of the first team at the start of the season.

Yep Perch got caught a few times iirc He'd get caught out no matter what formation or tactics

Is Danny Simpson fit now like?
