But due to the restrictions placed after the “Bury incident” whereby several seats are not allowed to be used I think the seats allowed to be used is less than 10000

The Bury incident is ancient history

You can't help warm to the guy.

Can you ask him which his local will be so I can pop in for a beer with him.

Yes Tim it's the flying horse in Barnet buddy

The number of seats available for sale is still over 10,000 even allowing for that.

Except they've reduced the capacity in the away end in recent years

That’s why I said 9000 👀

Can I highlight MA's brilliant but depressing description of how us fans currently feel about the experience of watching CFC, in part 2. A very accurate picture of the environment Carson has created.

Through choice and not permanently. They could sell all rows if they wished.

Given that some grounds we will visit have absolutely zero segregation I doubt we will have problems with our capacity

great interview, Martin Allen is the best thing to happen to us in a long time, whilst tomorrow night is about Tommy Lee, with all the usual nonsense going on in the background, i hope supporters make their feelings known to the effect that we are right behind Martin Allen.

We need the new owners if indeed we are getting new owners to be right behind him. If there not then regardless what fans think.

any potential new owners or current ones for that matter, need to stay out of his way and let him do the job he is employed to do. I believe he can return us to our football league status, maybe even at 1st attempt but if not it won't take him long. he knows what he's doing, he is our football man, no one has shown a clue in running this club for 3 years now, martin has a style, a direction and I think people (fans) are on board, let him do it or I fear even more fans will quickly become disillusioned.

I have read posts true untrue made up or with some credibility that MA is already questioning his future and that some deals are on hold pending takeover completion. I hope and pray its just scaremongering but its a worry for the clubs future

This man has to stay - simple as. The uncertainty of new ownership, transfers put on hold and question marks as to the future of Mad Dog could not have come at a worse moment. The club was just gaining a much-needed pre-season momentum to take us into a tough campaign. If it the sale is to go through then get it done asap and let the owners immediately state their support for the manager.

100% agree the squad will suffer for the delay and uncertainty and that needs addressing quickly with a mission statement of the future aims of the new owners. They clearly need to endorse MA as the clubs manager and how the director of football will support that

So a consortium that lacks funds wants a Director of Football that the club can't afford, they can't afford and the current manager doesn't want or need.

All as per this message board - YES.

Simple question, though - just WHO on this message board are privy to any details and, as such, are in the know?
