Wrong again, they have bought part of the land around Witton there is a very large part of the land still available for housing which borders our land and it would be perfect for housing, Thor are only putting light storage and offices on the land they have bought, so IF we wanted to sell in the future as part of a housing development that is still in the Wincham plan We could but I suspect we already have a great stadium so why move. I think most of the fans at Barnton were Witton so 74 for a pretty much expected reserve game is ok.
ARE WITTON IN FREE FALL

Toddy Thor have purchased the land where Roberts scrapyard is and due to an astute "sell on" clause we have a windfall. The land all around the other end of the ground stretching back a long way and to the side away from the canal is still designated as housing in the local plan. Of course whether housing goes on there who knows. we don't care we own the ground and WILL NOT unsustainably sell up OR sign players. Maybe at Wednesdays game against Barnton it would have been nice if more Wittoners had turned up but for reasons already stated they did not. Myself and CJ were present as we say and I rather wish I hadn't gone to be honest it wasn't the best of footy fayre! But we triumphed to possibly see off 1874 in the next round!
CJ, comparing a league derby game on Boxing Day to a midweek game in the Cheshire Senior Cup ( a competition a lot of people don't really care about) is rather unfair if you ask me. I thought it was a very good gate personally and encouraging for the future.
Oh, and by the way, the crowd was 358.

C.j., I'll give you one thing....you have your own ground.
After whatever years of foundation you've been around I would bloody hope so!!
Comparing the two attendances (one for a league game (and your cup final!), and the other for a little csc game)...well that's a pathetic statement to try and prove a point tbh! And using it on your forum to get a pat on the back....even sadder!!
When you mention what you have and what you could sell you mention the word "we" a lot!. What you should be saying is "they" as you are run by the directors of the club and not the fans , so "they" have made money, and "they" may have assets to sell, if you think that a majority of the profit is not going to end up in "their" pockets then you are dafter than I thought!.
BTW, We've heard all this "future looking bright" stuff in the early 90s, it lasted 3 whole seasons!!
If the futures so bright why aren't the crowds flooding back?
Good fa cup run, good trophy run and sitting high in the league yet still people don't want to watch you!?....not that bright after all!! (The future, not you.....although!?

How can anyone be envious of a club that needed Mr Rushe's (shall we say to be kind dirty money)to sustain the running of that club.Maybe you could donate some of your fortune to the good people trying to help the victim's of Mr Rushe's trade.

You would like us to be envious but actually we don't care about you......never have.......never will!
I've always seen it closer to pity!!
Always been second fiddle and even now with vics in disarray and 1874 still an infant in footballing terms you still can't get the Northwich public interested in your boring little club!
Nice to see that's the best response you could muster

In response to winding Wittoners up yes! Most of it complete nonsense btw.37 pages of that are posts from you rabble!
See you all in your cup final against us (again). If you draw us in the Cheshire Cup it will be off the scale! But not that important to us

Being a Winsford club that makes complete sense....
