Lets be realistic...why would southall leave a club with a decent set up and money to come to us. Mark stimson anyone??? Anyone but parkinson in my opinion.
My two pence worth, why did Jamie go Money .....What would stop anyone taking over Money ......Didn't we have the opportunity of that Kuwaiti businessman buying the club a few years ago, did we miss the boat on that one ?.
Is the club actively looking for outside investment ? or are we always going to be this poor old Welling with Crumbling stands, and no budget ?
We need new money the next manger cant rely on BTB to build his or her squad ...being PC there....
For me it has to be Matt Mein & Gavin Sutton ...
As I touched upon in a previous post not everything is as it seems with Ebbsfleets owner. The BBC Non-League Football Show interviewed him when there were contradictions in his application for his purchase of Ebsfleet. On his application he said he was a football agent. Then when questioned on this he first said he was, then said he wasn't, then said he was...
Then he couldn't explain where the money for the purchase was coming from...
He was bounced back by a few clubs including us and Charlton Athletic due to question marks over his finances. The only reason Ebbsfleet sold to him was because they were desperate.
There is a significant risk of Ebbsfleet going the same way as Salisbury FC with the attitude of their board being akin to someone who has just jumped off the Shard and halfway down, looking at the floor, and saying to themselves "well okay so far..."
I just hope for Jamie and his management teams sake that they've moved on before the brown stuff hits the fan.
Oh how I hope so .....but we still to find new blood, new money ....
N and D - are you sure you are not confusing a previous failed takeover attempt at Eurostar before the current incumbent took over? The chap who headed the successful bid at Gravesend is an extremely well-minted Kuwaiti with a doctor's qualification - either in medicine or in some other subject.
What he said.....all said and done i really feel mark stimson is the man for he job right now and i have a rather good feeling he has applied for it, knows the leagues and will know players. Yes bit harsh about parky earlier but right now is not the time to be taking that gamble. We are crying out for a experienced head to sail he good ship welling to safety.
I do not think that Mark Stimson is the right man for the job, at 46 not much success and not able to play. A has been Manager who is too old for the Welling job, we should be able to attract someone of far better calibre, Lee Clarke would be a better bet as Jamie said he was the one player in the Welling squad who would make a good manager.
I don't agree with either. You're the only man beating the Lee Clarke drum. He lives miles away, has signed elsewhere since your sudden arrival on this forum, and has no coaching or managerial experience.

Yep only a couple of fa trophy wins and promotion, also a couple of relegation scraps which is experience we need at the moment.
