    As much as the comments are stupid and immature - running to the EFL does strike me as a bit childish too

    without knowing the context of the conversations it’s all a bit bizarre

    It wouldn't let me copy the link. A bit of a nothing statement.

    I gather from that statement, basically EFL have passed it on to FA, rather than try and deal with it themselves. I really don’t understand what the office staff of EFL do all day.

    Doesn't sound good. Rochdale's new owners refusing to cooperate with the EFL, the losers as ever will be the supporters, especially as Rochdale have started the season badly

    A BUYER has finally been found for Bury FC and Gigg Lane, say administrators.

    Administrator Steven Wiseglass, of Inquesta Corporate Recovery & Insolvency, has been overseeing the sale of the club's asset and historic 12,000 capacity ground since last December.

    Last May he announced that the stadium was being put up for sale.

    And today he said heads of terms had been agreed with an unnamed party for the purchase of the Gigg Lane ground, along with "the rights, title and interest in and to other assets, namely club memorabilia, goodwill and intellectual property, including the Bury FC name".

    Fingers crossed for them, but it feels pretty pointless now given the fact that Bury AFC have been in operation for a few years.

    Maybe a deal can be done to bring them together so Bury is back at their ground.

    It would be what I would want if it was us.

    Yeah I hope that'll be the case as well for them.

    It's a bit complicated (and silly really) but there are 2 rival phoenix clubs, Bury AFC and Bury FC

    Good luck to them.  Hopefully the new owners of the ground and name are of honourable intention and they find a way to bring the entire club back together amicably.

    Documentary on BBC iPlayer on the reformation of Macclesfield FC.
    Don’t be put off by Savage (if you’re not a fan), it highlights some of the fantastic people behind the scenes at local level. 
    Shows just what a club can mean. So much more than football.

    Can we change the title of this thread…. Ebbsfleet we’re never really in trouble at all, just an owner who was being extra tight with the money.

    I can't stand Savage but I enjoyed the doc and he came across better than I expected.

    What is the state of play at Ebbsfleet now? Content not contending in the National League? 

    Take it any further stadium improvements are a long way away?

    In the main i would agree. He clearly works hard and cares.

     But he seriously undermined the team manager at times by taking over team talks and shouting at the players from pitch side.. I'm sure I heard him shout on one occasion to a player, don't listen to those 2 clowns (manager/ asst. Manager).

    As for the half time pasting he gave the players when they were winning 3-2,  that was well ott and just seemed like it was for the cameras. Ended up 4-4 so that pep talk worked really well..
