Just had that posted on my facebook!

I thought I would feel quite gutted but I don't.

Not going to lie,thought I would enjoy this season but in all honesty I have found it a let down.

Have only made a handful of away games due to it being too far for most Saturday games.

Shame as it started very well at Salisbury all those months ago but was quickly soured by the Dover game a week later.In truthfulness I shouldn't of bit when I did but my experience seems to have been soured since that point,no ones fault,just circumstances.

In the away games I have been,I enjoyed Salisbury,Dorchester and Chelmsford.

As for fans visiting the Bridge,only really Chelmsford bought a decent amount down,Truro bought a very good following for where they came from and Dover bought a few but apart from that,poor.

For me,its no great shakes us going down,don't get me wrong,a reprieve would be nice but if it doesn't happen I shan't lose sleep over it,I actually think that going back in the Ryman for a year or so wouldn't be the worst thing for the club,we are still a new club and ave come a long way in a short space of time and probably promotion last season in hindsight may of been a bit early for a club who had a bit of debt overhanging it,funnily enough,had we gone up this season,I think it may of been easier next,so if we do get a reprieve then I think we will be in a much better position to stay up next term,as I think there are some sides in that league who are obviously struggling to make ends meet.

[Hornchurch "O"]

Under what circumstances would we get a reprieve?

[Eastside Urchin]

Definitely if 2 sides in leagues above us go bust,possibly if 1 goes

[Fat Tom Daley]

I see that BBC are reporting that Farnborough are about to go into admin today, with debts of 2mil.

[Eastside Urchin]

Does that mean we are safe lol

[cup of tea]

Sorry for Farnborough if they go under but a possible opportunity for us if we win on Saturday.

[Eastside Urchin]

About the 4th time for Farnborough.

They have been clever,wait till they are safe and then go in,I think the points go off this years as the season is still active.

The FA have to sort this out,if they have debts that aren't serviceable and have been haemorrhaging money for a while then they have been cheating,almost knowing this would happen.

[cup of tea]

10 points off would still make them safe - that is a bit dishonest.

[Eastside Urchin]

They are not doing anything wrong,just using the rules that our spineless FA and leagues set because they can't be bothered to tackle the issue.

 

[Hornchurch "O"]

They have called Administrators in.

Think they are 9 points above us?

[cup of tea]

More than that unfortunately O, and Farnborough know that - that's why they've done it.

EU said they've done it before which is disappointing.

[Miss.A.F.C.Hornchurch]

you thought they would've learnt from their mistakes before!?

[Eastside Urchin]

I feel for the fans,I rember seeing farnborough play at Arsenal in the late 90s,took a few thousand there and I think they lost to west ham the following season after extra time and a replay so obviously had some money.

They are a decent name in non league but sadly not the force they were and it seems they struggle to get fans in nowadays.

[YELLOW]

Wasn't Graham Westley their manager during the late 90s, early 00s?

[Eastside Urchin]

Yes
