On 12 August 2016 O'Hara signed for Gillingham on a two-year contract.[46] On 30 September 2016, the club and player mutually agreed to terminate his contract after his failure to recover from an ongoing injury - don't think we could take the risk even if we could afford him.

We can only dream of being a mid-table third division team

I should have said sports clubs in general rather than just football clubs, football clubs have a longer record of financial failure, WASPS being one of the few non-football clubs that I know have which have made regular losses.

http://www.northampton.gov.uk/news/article/2458/council-apologises-for-loan-failings Agree councils are not set up to issue loans nor run multi functional stadiums. I always thought that CCC cabinet & senior management saw the Ricoh project as an escape from Social /education/ roads etc.. and...

Not sure I was right to mention this PwC report on Cobblers and try to draw any parallels with Cov & Ricoh - just amazed me that despite Northampton Council having procedures that this loan ever happened and how ineffectual the project management was.

PwC have just issued a report following the investigation into the loan given by the council to the Cobblers. Makes very interesting reading especially on the workings of a local council who can grant a loan with virtually no due diligence and even less monitoring of the construction project...

How Fleck won player of the year ahead of Adam Armstrong is beyond me. At the end of the day he is 25 and still playing in the third division of English football, pi$$ poor for the new Paul Cascoigne as he was initially touted as. Has an exceptional first touch and can pick a pass but no pace...

Another player using the club as part of his wind down from football, don't want to sound unnecessarily harsh but didn't impress me last year lost nearly every game that he played in this season, too old and slow as sad that it may be for him personally just want the best for the club and he...

David Bell - Kings Lynn soon after he left us Wayne turner - left the season we won the cup and was non-league a season later

Forgot Kevin Malaga

We've had some garbage over the last 5 years since our latest relegation. Andy Thorn's 2012 squad building was an absolute shocker the Edge, Reece Brown, Kevin Kilbane,

Rickets has hardly played recently but was there for 4 of our 5 league defeats as well as the Norwich mauling- not saying it was all his fault but we seem to have improved since he was dropped.

Hasn't been a good servant to Cov, this season, in desperate times weren't able to call on his experience / leadership etc..its not personal but equally there is no consolation that he is a model pro either, its surely what he does on the pitch that counts and, if too old shouldn't have been...

My first touch is still there its the subsequent touches that are the problem. Maybe might work as a 3 man central defence but a waste of a a salary

I don't particularly care as long as Sam / Samuel Ricketts name is nowhere near the teamsheet -awful player doesn't seem bothered far too timid for the centre half position and too slow to be a full back as well - in summary don't rate Sam aka Samuel

Isn't the club in reality up for sale, putting it up for sale would be admitting defeat and effect SISU's ability to effectively negotiate (potential contradiction in terms) with WASPS etc..

I think the offsetting losses against profits elsewhere to avoid corporation tax argument - is not the reason they are staying - its CCC - not the local council but court case compensation
