Sharming Paula Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Quote: Gavin said: Why have Canvey been relegated to the ryman? We didn't get relegated. Our backer Jeff King pulled out and went to Chelmsford. We were unable to substain the wage bill in the Conference so we asked to pull out and go in at a lower level, thus the Ryman North Div 1. Our previous seasons reserve team are now effectively our first team (with a few new signings). Our original team followed Jeff to Chelmsford as we were unable to pay the wage bill. But all looking good - Jeff has now relinquished all ties with the club and signed it over to a new management team. The supporters have much more of a say in the running of the club and everyone seems happy. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bounce.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRS67 Posted July 18, 2006 Author Share Posted July 18, 2006 I thought I read something along those lines. I remember when Canvey where in the same div as Edgware, you done very well to reach the dizzy heights and the Fa Trophy runs you enjoyed. So has the former backer taken his money and put it into Chelmsford? I know they have a new ground and prob a fair catchment area to draw upon. Do you think Canvey will be in contention this season? There seems to be a good number of strong teams in the ryman north 1 this season. I may pop along and see Wingate a few times this season as they are not too far from me.

Sharming Paula Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 'They' state Jeff King is not putting any money into Chelmo but they are a Ryman Prem club with a Conference team (beleive its 10 of our old players) so work that one out. As for our new team well they have 110% dedication and so do all the management - what more can we ask? Quite a young side but with a few old timers. Reckon we should do pretty well this season but no one really knows, as I said before a new team. We the fans will be behind them 100% and we will follow them through thick & thin. We have done it before and we will do it again!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Hi Paula, where have you been hiding today, have you been sunbathing. Did Chelmsford take a lot of your players and do you feel gutted about what has happened at Park Lane, I suppose you did the right thing rather than staying in the Conference or going into the Ryman Premier and struggling, at least you'll stand a good chance of getting promotion. Do you live on Canvey Island yourself, describe yourself, colour hair, eyes, height, vital statistics etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharming Paula Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Sorry Rhodes as said on another thread working <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> Think we were all angry at first (mainly because of the timing). We were given about 3-4 weeks to come up with a rescue package but there are some really dedicated supporters and staff at Canvey and they fought hard and won!! (Well done lads). We have done a lot of fundraising, have new sponsers etc and Jeff King sold the club (without debts) for a nominal fee (thanks Jeff). We have now put the past behind us and are looking forward to new beginnings <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> As for me I no longer live on Canvey - now in Benfleet (about 7 mile away) so still get to all home games and most away games. As for the rest well I'll keep ya guessing...... but I have an excellent sense of humour and jsut love a laugh (amongst other things) <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharming Paula Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 So Rhodes Civil Servant yeah - where at?? You tell me that and i'll tell ya where I work. Also age please. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/bisou.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhodes Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Sounds like I might have my foot in the door if you've been reading my profile, I'll keep you guessing about age but I work in Whitehall for the Ministry of Defence. I know Benfleet, it's where you get off the train to take the bus to Canvey but I don't suppose you work there as there doesn't seem to be a town, you sound really fun, a bit of a ladette who drinks pints like that Denise van what's her name from Basildon. What about those vital statistics then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
