JR confirmed an offer to buy Mason had been made but rejected, still expects to get him on loan though.
Thanks for the update.Disappointing in many parts.Think most of us can appreciate point 2 from the board's perspective, even if pricing is a major factor.I'm afraid I certainly don't agree on point 3 as it stands, but would love to be proved wrong.
Certainly disagree with the squad thoughts only have to look at last seasonAnd the players we bought alot have been injury prone in pastAnyway. My question he says there no more budget for players Does this mean we are wasting trialist time if sod wanted to sign them
We talked through a lot of issues maintaining the VSC’s role as a ‘critical friend’ and gave JR feedback on a number of issues that have been popular topics on the forum recently including season ticket and match day ticket pricing. We agreed to disagree on a number of the points but we will keep the pressure up on this with JR.

Don't quite get the \"biggest player budget ever\" almost being spent despite being increased by 500k from the Mills transfer. I really hope that a quality centre-half arrives before the season starts because we desperately need one. Naylor is not the answer to our problems there.

In your opinion Naylor is not the answer. But two men who eat sleep and know alot more than all of us put together about football think he will be.

Hi Gartom and The Members. Let me offer my help I can donate several signed photos framed of course to help with raffles. These are quality items not available anywhere else. I would also like to know how much it costs to advertise on this site like the ones down the lefthand side. Regards Derek. PS I can also frame shirts of course.

Look at how employers in every day business employ folk on short term contracts, just to have a look at them.
Thanks Steve and thanks for the update.It's good to hear your relationship with JR remains strong and to the degree thathe welcomes you in to his home.Did you get to play with his trains ??
So we turned down a bid for Sharp but Sharp would have negotiated if the deal was right?Yet more Chinese Whispers coming out of the club. You'd think it wouldn't be hard to establish who had decided to turn the deal down - player or club?
Thanks fellas that was very informative, please can you let us know your perception on just how far we are down the line on the stadium purchase ?
If we do get hold of the KMS - are we likely to see lecky turnstiles at all, or do you not have any idea about that?
