Wivenhoe sign...

[The Great Eckscape]

Wayne Purser from East Thurrock. They're gonna be a force to be reckoned with next season.

[YELLOW]

That's a top signing but goodness knows how much they're paying him.

[ronin]

What`s the betting that the big earners will not be a Wivenhoe next season regardless of what league they will be in.

 

According to the Echo they are also after striker Martin Tuohy from Great Wakering.

McKinney must be on some to go from Conference to Chelmsford to Wivenhoe. Would be interesting to know if they paid money for him too because he must've been on a contract at Chelmsford.

I wouldn't bet on it.According some people on that Eastern forum,who hate that RC in charge at Wivenhoe,he did the same thing at Diss Town and another Ridgeons club that i can't remember.Apparently Diss Town wage bill last season was £ 74000 and they signed nearly 50 players,only to sack the fella when he was trying to pull them out of trouble.The reason,always according these Ridgeons gossips was that his CRB checks were not up to scratch...He is the most hated person in that Ridgeons premier and no club would give him a job after those experiences.Again,he has inherited all that money from some relative who died and is using some of it to play with the toy even if his football know- how ain't that great.Now take all of this with a pinch of salt:it's only things that i have been reported but hey..credit to the guy..he's putting the money where the mouth is! I hope is a nice ending story....but what they say?After 2 comes 3....relegations!To me is third time lucky!

I think McKinney was released by Chelmsford and played for both AFC Hornchurch and Heybridge Swifts before signing for Wivenhoe

Yeah read all about Wivenhoe`s manager when he first went there, he seems to have upset plenty of people in recent times.

I still think that their current spending is just to avoid relegation which they will probably do and players like Purser will not be involved next season.

he may well have a ESL counterpart if you continue to slag other managers and players off on these forums coachie...

Merely reporting things from another forum Uncle.It's there for all to see matey.The RC post on that forum had hundreds of replies,including the worst one from one of the administrators that simply hated the fella.And now please, could you leave us alone...this is the Canvey forum

Surely they'd be better off if they were relegated. Or, at least, no worse off. There are quite a few clubs in the Ridgeons that get decent attendances, most of which are more local to them than clubs in our league and they'd probably be able to compete. But then, what do I know?

[ronin]

Wivenhoe would almost certainly go into the ESL if they got relegated.

[Ribbit]

What makes you say that? I assumed that (as things stand) Ilford would go into the ESL, swapping with Barkingside (based on points per game) and Wivenhoe would swap with Needham Market.

[ronin]

Ryman North takes the promoted team from the ESL and relegates teams back to it, i believe the Eastern Counties League does the same for the Ridgeons.

[Ribbit]

ECL is Ridgeons. Ridgeons is the sponser name. Teams from that division would generally be promoted into Isthmian North, unless they requested to enter the equivilant Southern division.

[ronin]

You are right, i`ve confused myself now
