Did anyone catch the post match from Curzon Ashton This is exactly why we won't get any changes to the funding given out. The clubs that have done well out of it has justified that they deserve it more than the clubs losing out and have perceived any issues raised by club worse off in comparison as sour grapes and mind games. Seen it on twitter too Clubs saying that they're loads of extra expenses other than gate money to cover as if clubs with larger fan bases don't have those costs as well. Infuriating Just listened to that post match interview. Who is he to talk about our ‘resources’, what resources? Somebody ought to let him know that we are comparing clubs who average below fans each home game as against a team with average home game support of 2000+. Of course it’s unfair for the money to have been distributed as it was and we are bound to voice our opinion of the unfairness of this matter. I only know a little about Steve Cunningham, former manager at Colne, but he needs to get his facts correct regarding finances lbefore he spouts off on his club’s site.

To be fair to him he runs through every cliche in the book...two under 18s in the back 4, never going to come here and win 3-0, down to bare bones, better team in the second half, club with Chester's resources 😂 I don't really expect anyone to come out and say they got too much. I fear it will all be swept under the carpet

How Ashton's keeper has not been snapped up by a League club is beyond me. Every time I see him he looks the part. Brilliant on crosses and a great shot stopper. Who is backing Curzon? Their wage bill is very obviously above their level of support. In my opinion five or six of the Curzon players have clearly signed for wages above the norm for a club of such size. Must be from the stadium facilities. Knowles and Stephenson wouldn’t come cheap. Both won this league previously too.

What a lovely goal Glendon’s was, not just the finish but the build up to the goal too.

Infuriating Lets face it he was never going to say anything different really was he as it is coffers in his pocket, my main worry in all of this is the way the national league has handled it. I for one think the national league may have put some of these clubs in more danger in the long term because no way will they be able sustain that amount of income. My advice would be to these clubs be very carful how you spend it because your dreams maybe short lived and you may find yourself in more of a mess.

The footage shows Waring was just onside when the ball ricocheted off Elliott, but it was a wise move for him to leave it, knowing George’s luck with officials of late. Good finish by Danny too.

Interesting.
I’d also like to find out who all the spectators that seem to be able to get into our home games are, and do we really need the amount of stewards to control what should be a crowd of 0?
Former (not current) board members photographed in the stands, mates of current club staff also noted to have attended games, three stewards all stood shoulder-to-shoulder chatting to each other at the front of one of the spectator tunnels by the cardboard cutouts... it’s a bit galling when the rest of us aren’t allowed in.

Yeah I was thinking this. That darts player who works for Curzon now was at the Marine game.

Someone on Twitter who has a big blow-up Seal seems to be there every game too, taking pictures of various cardboard cutouts and tweeting them. Did a bit of painting at the ground in the off-season and is allowed in. It’s all very “jobs for the boys”.

It doesn't bother me that hard working volunteers or direct/indirect employees of the club are being allowed to spectate.
Not something to be offended by in my opinion, but then I don't trawl the Internet looking for things to be offended by

Who said anyone was offended?
Fact of the matter is it’s meant to be behind closed doors - but that seems to be dependent on “who you know” for some people (non-fan mates of club staff), whilst do we really need the amount of stewards we have for a crowd supposed to be of 0? Are the stewards getting paid to literally stand and have a natter and watch the game? Or are they there just in case Purple Aki fancies having a pop at Hulk Hogan or Peter Griffin gets too pissed and has to be thrown out?

Point is it’s supposed to be as few people as necessary isn’t it, because of the pandemic. That’s what behind closed doors. How many hours they’ve volunteered in the past is irrelevant to that.
Do we need three stewards in each block for a crowd of 0? I just hope they aren’t being paid given the financial constraints placed on us this season.
Why are mates of mates getting in?
It should only really be one or two directors and the press.

Curzon talking about our 'resources' like we have a sugar daddy is laughable.
They get gates of 300 - there's no problem with that in itself but how are they funding Paul Turnbull? If they're looking for an example of a bankrolled club they need to look at themselves first. It remains a farce that they receive the same funding, more or less, as we do/.

Could be wrong though Also, I imagine part of the role of the stewards is to make sure people are social distancing and COVID guidelines are being followed by the few who are in attendance, so we would need a certain number of them in the stadium.
There are actually probably more rules to follow than ever inside stadiums at the moment, so stewards are important.

Stewards weren’t even following the rules themselves then. Stood towards the end we were attacking, shoulder-to-shoulder, by all the cardboard cutouts and well away from any human spectator.

They may have been tested before the game, or been told to take up certain positions and work together.
If you're concerned about this, you should take it up with the club rather than speculate on here.
