National League 2018/19

[DarkSithLord]

In a club statement Braintree announce that Billy Crook has been banned for 5 matches in relation to an incident with Steve Shulton in a National League South match in January against Hemel Hempstead Town

After a heated exchange missed by the officials an appeal had been made to the FA that an defamatory term had been used. Braintree are very disappointed and plan to appeal. Full details here -https://twitter.com/braintreetownfc

Looking at the teams in this league I reckon Boreham Wood will break their highest ever away attendance this year when they take 50 fans to Barnet.

I'd just like to say, they brought a very large contingent of 166 to our place last season - Their closest trip of the season and highest away crowd of the season.

Fuck off Borient you’re in this league for a reason, has the penny not finally dropped? Ask any Dover fans they’ll tell you the same when you get on your high horse about wanky support and football. Either you stop mugging the league off you muggy caaaaants or get on the Wet Spam bandwagon. Shithouses doing grassroots down the lot of yers. Jog on.

i don't understand any of that, but i agree

Fous de Borient vous êtes dans cette ligue pour une raison, est-ce que le penny n'a pas finalement été abandonné? Demandez à tous les fans de Douvres qu'ils vous diront la même chose quand vous monterez sur votre cheval à propos du soutien et du football. Soit vous arrêtez de lâcher la ligue sur vos caprices ou de prendre le train en marche de Wet Spam. Shithouses faisant la base sur le terrain de yers. Jog sur.

Is that clearer?

I'm actually not quite sure what we're even doing this summer.

Owners made a big thing about increasing the budget, how its now a top half budget & we're aiming for a top half finish. Yet so far all we've done is pretty much just re-sign most of the squad that nearly got us relegated......makes zero bloody sense

 

[iesty wfc]

So we have a sell on clause agreed with liverpool for Danny Ward. We dont know what the % is, but even if it is 5% most wrexham fans would be happy. Some people are even suggesting 20% but liverpool would have been silly to allow that surely

Good for them, unscrupulous agents are ruining the game.

I don’t know how you can say that. Well done Boreham Wood

It's unprofessional but if what they're saying is true then Ferrier and his agent are tossers.

On one hand, it seems that Boreham Wood are playing hardball over the sell on clause (25% seems a reasonable offer to me) and if the fee is low that is their fault for not negotiating a higher one when they signed him. Also its pretty unprofessional (and unfair) to name drop Tranmere and AFC Wimbledon when they could have referred to them as 'an unnamed league 1/2 club). Also, Boreham Wood hold all other clubs in this league to ransom over highlights and commentary, so they dont have any moral high ground in that aspect.

On the other hand, this does seem to be a new agent promising Ferrier the world, getting him on board, and then playing hardball with Boreham Wood. Personally I don't think agents are necessary at this level and are a nuisance to most clubs, and is something that I wouldnt miss from the game.

Whatever happens in the end, I dont think anyone wins from this.

Exactly. I have a certain amount of sympathy with Boreham Wood but I'm not keen on my club being named and I'd imagine that Tranmere aren't too happy either.

We have a PSF at Boreham Wood next week. I'd love to be a fly on the wall if our CEO attends.

EDIT - seems like we're no longer interested. Not surprised as we don't have a lot of time for agents. https://www.londonnewsonline.co.uk/...ley-talks-about-respecting-non-league-outfit/

 

[Luke Imp]

Bit of a weird one because it's not a particularly black and white release clause. Because BW have to agree to the additional add-ons, it's effectively renders the £35k fee void.

It might as well have said, "We'll sell you if we get an offer that's acceptable to the Club", which is the same for every player anyway!

Another 3 BT live games to be announced at 2pm
is there/should there be a separate thread for tv games?

It isn’t entirely true.

Remember which club it is coming from.

 

[George Reilly's Hairpiece]

I think there is more to this than Boreham Wood are making out. I thought the agent would be a wet behind the ears type, but if the person that is being named on Twitter is true, then he's linked to an agency that has put many players into many clubs, including ours.

Did he really just say “I’m just 23 and still learning”? If you haven’t learnt what’s wrong and what’s right at the age of 23, then I worry for you Morgan..
