How come the only people we can find interested enough to own the club are all from NZ?

So that when it all goes belly up again in 12 months time they'll be a long way away from having to face the players, staff and fans?

If it comes off, though, it will probably feel like going back to where your house was before the tornado, and seeing what's left.

Can't see much on the horizon but pain.

Or misplaced livestock.

Will need massive statement of intent to regain support. RL statement around 5pm (T&A)

Hopefully see you at Cougar Park then. Think the friendlies are usually free pint for every ticket, sounds like everyone needs a stiff drink someone can have mine aswell.

I would hope that you don't need to go down the duel reg route, its ruining the smaller clubs...

Maybe they can promise free season tickets if we get promoted to SL for next year?

Pointless speculating until we get some detail TBH.

If its Chalmers depending on what direction he wants to go with the club, surely at this short notice he will have to go and buy the logo and naming rights from Thorne! If thats the case I think he should go to Ravensport and get that kit for this season
