I am disappointed that there is a split between the Clubs as to whether to carry on with the season as it should NOT be any advantage to " the [financially o k haves " and the ones in for promotion and those seeing a way out of getting relegated !!!!!!!
Its very simple to me IF ALL Clubs are NOT given sufficient Grant to see them through to the end of the season then both Leagues should be suspended till August 2021 [ new season]
ALL Clubs should be released from having to pay the Players so as to ensure [ long term survival ] , its a 2nd job for most of the players anyway so their hardship will be far less than the average working man !!!!

Such is my interest I'm still looking for 'Say No to Mountain Goats' petition. I have my fiver at the ready. Bloody little critters.

Latest from Marc White on the situation.

I believe we are 3 up against Southend after 30 odd mins and Elliott has a hattrick.

FT 5-1, Barham penalty but not sure of the other scorer.

Own goal

Nice warm-up for Saturday

Bath City have just released a club statement stating they want the season null & void with immediate effect as they are skint. But then go on to announce they have just signed a new striker for an undisclosed fee??
You couldn’t make it up!!

I have just seen that they are due to play Ebbsfleet on Saturday. If they refuse to play Ebbsfleet, Ebbsfleet should be given 3 points as should any club, and obviously the same for us and all clubs if other clubs refuse to play.

Bath City do not want to continue with the league unless it is grants. But some North/South clubs have issued a statement agreeing that matches should continue until a final decision is made, allowing discussions cantake place to resolve the situation before the 28 day voting period is up. There is a proviso that only games where both sides agree to play should go ahead and no sanctions be imposed on those that don't . The Romans actually sold a young player to Bristol City 29th Jan. for an undisclosed compensation fee.
