Rhodes Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 Wader - Hasn't Uncle Urchin discussed Edgware FC's groundshare for next season with you, I thought he might have done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wader Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Perhaps your MD is the person who does that kind of thing? In any event why would new Edgware want anything to do with an identikit stadium? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who said that they do, like I said Edgware FC have a number of irons in the fire for next season, Club's are actually knocking on our door rather than the other way round.

Jeff Hamnett TSF Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 is it an intention to be close to edgware? maybe a coach from edgware to the new venue if its a bit more than a bus ride? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ideally it would be preferable to be as near to Edgware as possible but it's not life or death, the old regime have already indicated that they're not interested in becoming involved in the new Club so we don't have to take their feelngs into account, not that we would anyway as they were responsible for the demise of Edgware Town leaving 500k of debt in their wake.

Rhodes Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 Horace - Like Milton Keynes Dons you mean, anyway unless we groundshare with Kingsbury London Tigers or Kentish Town where else would there be to play in the immediate area.

Rhodes Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 I'm surprised by that question as I thought football was in your blood. Many people shed a tear when Edgware Town bit the dust so Gavin, Syd Lexic, Darter, Uncle Urchin and myself got together and decided to resurrect a new Club, bearing the Edgware name, from the ashes, it's as simple as that.

sjj2112 Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Since the MK Dons debacle don't the FA have rules in place to say that the name of the club has to reflect the area in which they play? Hence the change of name at Ruislip Manor and the caveat that Rotherham United can only use the Don Valley Stadium in Sheffield for 2 seasons before they have to return back to Rotherham.

Rhodes Posted October 19, 2008 Author Share Posted October 19, 2008 Unc - I echo that, I think I speak for us all, ie Syd Lexic, Darter, your good self and me, in that we are of the old school brought up on a diet of 60's and 70's football when people really cared and lived by the Shankly saying, I thought Horace was of the same ilk but apparently not.

Jeff Hamnett TSF Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 yesterday I saw dorking play away at warlingham fc in combine counties 1 warlingham fc 1st xi are part of a very decent and successful sports club with many cricket and junior football sides, darts snooker etc etc huge clubhouse and grounds offering sports for youth , teenagers and grumpy old gits of the parish.(in croydon) they have won their league in recent seasons but cant progress because of ground issues. now if Edgware fc has folded for whatever reason why should another club be invented and groundshare and progress instead of perhaps natural progression allowing warlingham to move up and those above them? 100 seats and floodlights? with crowds of 30 - 80 at these levels? kick off at 1 or 2 ? im puzzled. but 6 pints of stella and 3 bottles of blossom hill do that.
