I've just heard (prob old news!) that Jennings have been taken over and I know that they have an interest/involvement in the new ground deal. Will this make a difference to our move?

Will this make a difference to our move? no it won't make a difference,should still be ready by the time your grandchildren are old enough to get in the team.

Luke has played his last game for us - fallen out with GP over comments made regarding the merits of the contract offered. We shall see if true on Sat.

Gary Peters has promised Luke that he will start against Sc***horpe so he can say his goodbyes. Odds on to be substituted so he gets a deserved standing ovation.

I'd heard that too but this rumour came from within the club (I know that does not make it true!) anyway, maybe GP will knock this rumour on the head before the game. To be honest I would not play him anyway. I'm not bitter about his desire to better himself but neither do I feel the urge to give him the "ovation" many believe he deserves.

bit harsh, one of the few players who stayed upon a sinking ship in his efforts to rescue it when there were plenty of offers abounding from bigger clubs.

whats wrong with that?
he's not stupid, we all know he has stayed on at Salop two years too long, but instead of forcing the issue he abided by the clubs decisions despite the turbulant time he has had.
The lad deserves a crack a higher level.

As for him thinking he's good enough for the championship, well I think so too, he could become a cracking player.

The plan was I believe to move into the new ground halfway through next season. God only knows when the ground will get started nevermind when we can play there, if its down to the council they will halt us aslong as they can...t**ts

JP, Do you think it might of helped if the Club had submitted the plans for the ground they were going to build in the 1st place?

In all honesty Im just looking for someone to blame for the reason the New Meadow hasnt been built yet and we arent in our 3rd/4th season in it already. Lots of other councils are more helpful toward a major income into their Town's/Cities than ours are. 9 times out of 10 the only reason Shrewsbury is mentioned on TV or national radio is because of the football club. Also lots of other clubs are more truthful and forthcoming when it comes to telling us whats really going on. SABC and STFC are both to blame for this

The club did not submit plans for the ground it wanted the club did not submit plans for a ground it did not want Alaska submitted plans for a ground it wanted in order to pull off the big property deal it was after STFC inherited the Alaska stadium design with planning permission The blame at STFC's door was that fi they had not started off by allowing Alaska to dictate terms then maybe we wouldn;t have got into such a pickle, but, and it is a rather big but, Alaska had the rights to the Oteley Road land and therefore held a strong hand

Usually it's the business men who call the tune and that's how they make money and are successful.

I hold the directors if STFC responsible for not being clear enough ont he new groudn in the early stages, for peeing off local councillors and making enemies ofpeople we needed as friends and for trying to blag a free ground out of Alaska instead of building our club a stadium to be proud of and not being open and honest about who makes what from the deal hardly helps their cause

You're thinking what I'm thinking then Well Martin, I can only hope the councillors vehemently opposed to the Football Club are voted out at the next election And we football fans have a chance to make a difference, because "If you value it, vote for it"

good slogans only work if you trust the people using them
unfortunately I trust none of the politicians except Charles Kennedy, and while I trust him I also disagree with him on several things
I don't know which is worst, slimey Howard or Slippery Blair, as either will change their policies after the election anyway

at least Blair has some social skills.
Nothing worse than watching Howard attempt a natual smile that looks about as natual as a concrete car park
