Clubs were also informed that NPL TV has not met its obligations under its agreement with the league and that clubs should not budget to receive the monies that they were promised.


Apparently, no clubs have received any money whatsoever from last season. None of the clubs got the £800 promised to them by invision and don't look like getting it either....

Can't wait to see Leigh Genesis they were bloody good on that gig from Rome the other week...presume they won't be appearing on novision then...Invision not part of ITV are they, remember when they pulled the plug on the Football League clubs after promising the earth a few seasons ago?

Genesis will get the Earth, but they'll have to wait until the Third Day.

Looking at the list of Premier clubs we are going to be doing some travelling on cold winter nights. Anyone finding good inexpensive thermals please give me the heads up!

[otleybard]

Then again, we've lost Gateshead, Stamford and Leek, which should reduce the mileage a bit. And remember the days of Gretna, Blyth Spartans, Colwyn Bay, Telford, Grantham...

And although the Horsfall Stadium seems a vast distance away, it's in time rather than earth miles!

[adambrid]

Yep even i remember Blyth
