Yannick Bolasie has stepped into and donated the money to save hillingdon borough - his former club.

[York Alty is back]

Where's Dunc?

We're thriving. Remember?

[taxi Phil]

We're going down, not under.

I remember Bolaisie getting Sean Densmore sent off v Rushden & Diamonds. back around 2006/7 season, by feigning  an injury . He also later on in the game was responsible for injuring Robbie Lawton who was out for quite a few games due to Bolaisie. Not my favourite person ...

Glad Hillingdon have been saved but that's it.

They are saying its not financial as they have revenue streams but just nobody turning up to watch them.

So, did he give them money or not? If not what did he do just re-tweet a load of stuff or promise to turn up at a few games? Seems like a free publicity stunt to me.

Why dont we do the same? We could publicise the fact we are the worst we have ever been and make out that its the biggest psychological slump ever seen in the history of sport and then we can reach out to Roy Keane to come and give Buzz some help for a game to do the team talk to try and get the players revved up for a league game.

It would get a few through the door, you never know, maybe even work and we'd bloody win!

We could pay Keano in free zumba classes!

You might not have noticed but Roy's management career hasn't gone well so far.

He's no Sir Alex in management terms but to counter that he is also a lot better than Sinnot, Young and Harvey.
If he just gave our lot a talk to gee them up it would help

I would far rather employ a steady, reliable, if somewhat predictable Sinnot than a loose cannon such as Keane.

Not talking about giving him a job, talking about a publicity stunt to get peoples attention and possibly put a rocket up peoples arse on the pitch. A Lee Sinnott dressed in a suit made of £50 notes, nevermind the 'steady and reliable' version of him that walked out on us when he realised he'd blown it and couldnt avoid relegation, wouldnt be able to achieve either.

If not Roy Keane any of the plethora of current/former footballing superstars living in the locality who achieved more in one season than our collective squad of dross will achieve in their entire careers. Why not just get someone in for a day with the players who has been at the top who can motivate them a bit. Tell them what they did in their careers to get their chins up and playing well again.

We've basically got an entire squad with very slight exceptions who are in the worst form of their careers. I keep thinking that we'll play a game and early on a chance will break for us, and we'll bang it with five deflections and suddenly the fog lifts and the players get themselves going and we trash the opposition 5-0. Of course that little daydream relies on one or two of them having some ability left :-)

Publicity wise its deffo Keane over Sinnot!!

Oh god this reminds me of the tommy docherty period.  Luckily I was far far away and missed all of that

Is that the same Sinnot that f**ked off instead of making some signings to help us stay up in the National league. He could have prevented this f**king debacle we now find ourselves in. The bloke was a Jack bastard in my eyes.

Did the rot start on Sinnott 's watch? No question.  Is the mess we have now directly down to him? No chance. Far, far bigger culprits.

Sinnott was a good manager for us in my eyes. A breath of fresh air, none of this over sentimental old boy bullsh*t which does the rounds at Alty far too often.  Some great football, great performances, a promotion too.

All about opinions at the end of the day. You think he was a bastard. I think he was great.

The Grand old Duke of York (or in his case Hull). He marched us up to the top of the hill and he marched them down again.
It is indeed all about opinions Bob.

[im not really here]

Our current debacle is down to the decision making of the Board and giving roles to both Tolson and Young
