I doubt the club can publicly criticise the Conference as they would get in even more trouble. A bit like when a manager criticises the ref and then gets in trouble with the FA.

I'm starting to realise how all postings on RO are pun-derived wherever possible, so shouldn't this read no more James Foster given the thread title, or am I missing something :?:

I sent my letter on 5 Feb to the Conference and they replied 2 March, which is about a 3 week turn around. I don't think it is a coincidence the reply was the Monday after the Crawley appeal decision. The club were probably legally bound not to disclose matters. I perhaps should have asked permissio...

If the Conference / the Club had been a bit more informative a lot earlier about what had happened I could have saved myself writing three letters. I doubt quite so many people would have signed the petition either. It now seems to me that both sides can be seen to be at fault, possibly each was ass...

Those procedures in the letter don't actually sound that bad as the Conference do acknowledge receipt of the form back to the Club, giving the Club the opportunity to check the registration has been received. For the Conference to check 68 teams' registrations each Monday would probably take the bes...

The FA weren't that interested in following up on my first letter complaining about the points deduction, saying it was up to the club to appeal and they didn't. 2nd letter now sent to the Chairman of the Football Regulatory Authority. &quotI ask the FA to order a Commission of Inquiry into the ...

Brahma Bull - which version of the rule was in the rule book which Oxvox received please? I don't think the FA took any notice of the petition when looking at the Crawley case. They act as lawyers and interpret matters strictly according to the rules. They only adjust on matters of fact, or where th...

What also seems to have happened is the relevant rule and its application to substitutes is now different to when I asked the FA about it. Version 1 - what the FA told me... Any Club found to have played an ineligible player in a match shall have any points gained from that match deducted from its r...

The Grays price should have been £13. no idea where i got 15 and 17 from. Other than that, the minimum on the day price varies from £12 to £16. I am sure a lot of Oxford fans would love to pay £13 or £14 to stand on a terrace, but there isn't one. Would perhaps be interesting to put the max seating ...

part 2 of the interview
is here, including the bit Boris typed out.
Interesting to see from part 1 that &quotthe club do not have to pay any interest &quot on the WPL loans. Does that means interest is being charged / accrued but not paid in cash, or is the loan now interest free?
