Midlands Watch 23/24

[Tez]

i was there yesterday, the expectancy from their fans was audible. They think they are a Conf Club by right , still act like they are entitled and seem to think they should be watching players of the standard of their glory years not honest Step 4 local players . Car Park £3, stewards and attendants all over the ground hired in from an external security firm, 2 plush bars, talk of a £10k a week budget next season which would be double even the highest in NPL West . One of their fans at least refers to a dose of reality but seems to see even the Vase as a punishment .

If one of the NLM theories is correct and reprieves in respect of New Salamis and Loughborough’s resignations from Step 4 are ppg rather than within league, then Hednesford may well wriggle free of the drop anyway.

I thought resignations / demotions were always kept in-league?
e.g. Skem last season saving Widnes

There were some muttering that Avro have ground grading issues. That might save them

Wishful think8ng by the Pitmen fans. I think all good at Avro.

I was impressed all round at Avro last week. Friendly people, good food. Ground could be better, but OK at this level. And better tannoy and announcer that Townfield.

If the league was won on quality of food, Avro would win hands down.
