We've got the second best defence in the league. Numbers not your forte obviously lad.
Our problem - we are poor in attack. Lacking cohesion and confidence. The lads look as though they have only just met each other. The club has a serious lack of useable facilities and (as you lot know only too well) the finances are drying up as the main benefactor is currently looking to exit the club.
Some say this couldn't have come at a worse time but I rather this happened now BEFORE the club started fannying around trying to get into SL. I am told the club is relatively debt free and the current (ageing) directors are looking to exit also.
Lean times ahead. To be honest - I don't mind a struggle, what I can't abide is when my club starts bringing out the begging buckets or worse still, goes into Admin (once in 1990). If that ever did happen again I'd be done with RL.
It's a tough tough task running a club. There is massive competition on leisure time and getting fans down to the Shay is proving difficult. Despite previously winning the GF & NRC we never beat a 2,200 average. That's poor.
Can't do any harm taking a leaf out of Leigh's book. Roll our sleeves up and start the hard work. The club need to find some dedicated folk to take this task on. Not easy.
