The club as a business is a joke. No revenue coming in from anywhere apart from the piss poor gates. The ground is a fuching disgrace. A shi2 hole to be honest. I know that volunteers work at the ground and do their best but Christ the place is a death trap in places.
For God sake Goldberg get your pie in the sky plan up and running or sell the club lock stock and lease to someone who gives a ****. We need to move on and start getting things going upward. Not festering and rotting as we are now. We are scraping the barrel and its not good enough. Im completely embarrassed by what Im seeing. Its terrible just terrible.
Just listened to Steve Lovell.....is it just me or has he given up already?.....I think the one night a week training and the budget is getting him down already ....I wouldn't be surprised if he walked
This is the same calamity it's been every season since Goldberg took over, with the exception of when the non-league Guardiola was in charge
Goldberg doesn't own the club asset (e.g. the lease), the guy who owns SECO construction owns it. Follow the trail in companies house, it all leads to SECO.

Is this true? Is it possible for someone in an official capacity at the club to confirm or deny this? Performances are one thing - opinionated. Ownership of the club and its assets surely a fact. Can we get a yes or no please?

Can't comment on today's game. Can state the reality that after an 18 month hiatus in attending matches the hardcore will attend, those that aren't need to be encouraged to get back in the habit. Watching abject junk has never been the way to do that and it becomes a very fast spiral of low crowds, lower budget, lower crowds.
It is almost imperative that is broken in the next home match or the tone I fear will be set.

Did some digging a while back, SECO's owner equal to MG in a firm that controls the lease to the ground. It's all there in black and white.
As an aside looks like WELLING UNITED FC LTD was dissolved last month, did it receive any Gov grants? https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/12325160
The chain is sometimes hard to follow because there are so many layers, but
Jobzooma Limited (formerly known as Recruiter Base ltd) operating under licence from RecruiterLink Ltd which are all part of the Keston Holdings Ltd group, controlled by Mr Nigel Mark Grayston (SECO Construction, Welling Developments Ltd etc) and non-significant control by Mr Mark Goldberg.
MG AND SECO own Welling United's main asset, the lease to the ground 50% each.

Success breads contentment, defeats breeds despondency. I know it is only two matches into the season and I know not what the playing budget is, but what is for sure there are no superstars in this side. Training once a week is amateur and allowing players to control their own fitness is doomed to failure. For many reasons, and wanting to hold the reins because of possible redevelopment must loom largely, we appear to have no backing and that is likely to continue whilst the present leaseholders are in power. I do not dispute the squad is possibly the best that money will allow, however, the side put out yesterday is not good enough for this league. I have a view on yesterdays starting line up, however, that is the managers province and who am I to argue with his selections. I am afraid that without an infusion of finances we will stagnate and be looking to avoid relegation at the very least. A new side every year and new managers at regular intervals does nothing for stability and only two matches in, I am fearing for our future in this league.

In three words I can sum up everything i've learnt in life; it goes on.
Again I'd say there are a few players there who show potential, but they are not going to maintain ability or improve the way things are, to put the training situation in perspective I'm almost 36 years old, smoke 15 fags a day and on average 10pints a week. Yet I play more football in a week than our players do in a paid capacity.
And yes the team selection was also a bit odd, Che is not a centre mid although he performed well compared to others, shokombi I thought has looked alright yet was dropped and I don't see why we signed Kai brown & Sinclair only to get another player in their position. Limited funds yet with have about 7 forwards, don't make sense.
You need to take on more fluids. Your never going to win any silverware on that sort of input.
Can I suggest setting yourself a Friday target of at least half a dozen.
That allows you the weekend to get that figure up into a respectable range
