Another Set To Leave – Non League Blog

Well it has come out that Jon Paul-Pittman is on his way out of the club. I wish JP all the best but am confused as to the reasoning behind it. Do the club need the money ? Were constantly told no. JP will without a doubt want to move up a league, But if the club were sure we could make the play-offs why didn’t they turn the bid down ?
Is it the price of promotion ?

Towel thrown in ?

This was the subject raised on the Crawley Town fans forum. I am in 2 minds about this. From 1 side it looks like the club are doing a smart but of business and getting some money in. Yet again they could be getting players off the wage bill and stopping financial meltdown.

The point was made that we are bringing in quality players on loan, True we are but whats the point when were getting rid of the players that are making our team great. Why bring in quality when we are emptying the club of the quality it has.

Doesn’t make sense to me.

Is the dream over for another year ? Lets hope not.

No Rain But Pitch Waterlogged – Non League Blog

Yesterday’s match Vs Havant was called off due to a waterlogged pitch.

Strange as Westliegh Park hasn’t seen any rain for a week. This is the non-league and it seems officials are trying to protect the players to much. They should be used to playing on terrible pitches and in awful conditions.

Yet due to the referee’s foot sinking in 2 spots in the centre circle the games off, Its stupid. Its not old trafford with £90,000 a week players on show.

This is what the non-leagues about.
