I'm 99.9% sure I know who you are from school.

It's an interesting point, maybe deserves its own thread. Of the Top 20 posters on this forum, aside from myself obviously, I personally know just 2, and only know 10 by face.

For example I have no idea who Trek is, no idea who WWODB is, same for Sara Pascoe and ToD, I'd probably recognise them if I saw them from being at Diamonds games but wouldn't know who they were.

Interesting discussion over on Ploppynet about which league they might be placed in next season - do they really think they can afford to play at NP in anything below the BSP, they (just like us) cant afford it now!

But whoever takes charge the success of the club is ultimately down to us, the supporters and the people of K*ttering, Wellingborough and East Northamptonshire. If we support the club in numbers it will survive and thrive, if we do not it won't.


I think the above paragragh shows that he must have only just arrived with the Rolls retinue.

I don't think anyone would know who I am, the only people who I'd recognise would be Bobos and Pigman.

After seeing The Real Ace's last post it's obvious that he's just on a wind-up. Funny though. :lol:

George Rolls, Evening Telegraph, Saturday 10th March 2012 -
"Weymouth were in the black when I left, not many clubs can say that."

Nigel Biddlecombe (new Weymouth owner) Dorset Echo, Saturday 10th March 2012 -
“George Rolls did not leave WFC debt free. Since I took over, between myself and the people working with me, we have discovered long standing debts of a Football nature along with debts to Her Majesty’s Revenues & Cus-toms and West Dorset District Council for rates.They have been estimated at £40,000 although we are still awaiting final figures from HMRC."
