It's a difficult one this, for us supporters and I would guess for the chairmen of the member clubs."Dr Bob" wrote:The latest rumour on Blues Mad, as yet unconfirmed, is that not only is Chester's game against Gateshead tomorrow now postponed the FA have summoned the Conference Board to FA HQ about what they describe as "a supposed breach of rules". Whether the last bit it true or not, it is clear that the FAs postponing of Saturday's game, overturning the earlier Conference Board decision to give it the go-ahead, casts yet more bad light on Lee et al. It begs the question - how much longer are they going to be allowed to keep screwing things up for teams in the Conference before significant action is taken against them? And can anybody with more legal training and knowledge of football structures than I offer suggestions as to what that action realistically might be (as opposed to what many of us would like to happen to Lee. In a dark alley. With no witnesses around).
No right minded supporter wants to see another club fold. The Chairmen of the clubs all want an extra home game (if we hold on long enough it might even be in that free saturday the conference cleverly left for us!) as their revenue will be based around 23 games not 22. And the Conf Board want to get this issue resolved as quickly as possible so as to avoid any additional embarrassment. But at the same time, most of the supporters and Chairmen of Member Clubs seem to think that the Board are crap and would like to make an embarrassment of them....
Which way would you hope this goes?!?
