Great set up they have Be nice when they return to Hinckley though, that Greene King Stadium was a fantastic little ground they had know owned by Leicester Road. Went to Notts County yesterday watched them hammer Eastleigh 4-0! good game tbf. Quite sad at final whistle... thinking this could be last football match we see in a while... lets hope the non league fixtures still contuine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great set up they have Sad history for Hinckley. Lost out on a possible Conference place due to a last minute penalty. Getting large crowds (2,000) in a new stadium....then it all went downhill. Now they find themselves 4 divisions lower playing in front of 100 or so. The other Hincley split into Leicester Road FC who play in the old stadium that holds over 4000 also get about 100 per game. Strangely Hinckley AFC play in Ibstock on.. Leicester road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they have an unfortunate recent history to say the least. And a messy separation to for AFC and Leicester Road doesn't cover half of what happened.

I remember play off final they had against Farsley Celtic they should have gone up they a good squad that season, they 3-1 up with ten minutes to go and ended up losing 3-4! Things really started to go downhill from summer onwards they lost a lot of players and they started to tumble down the league table as the years went on along with attendances. Such a shame really a good town for football that should be playing higher up. It's pity they never made much money from the Andre Gray deal considering where he is now.

CosbehFox Posted 16 March 2020 Share Posted 16 March 2020 Sadly I think even if Hinckley did win that playoff final - the ownership wrangle on the stadium would have caused an issue later down the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacemunky Posted 18 March 2020 Share Posted 18 March 2020 (edited) Not that important, but I dreamt last night that I was at a Notts match with my dad(he passed away 9 years ago). To say it was a soggy pitch would be a huge understatement. After one of our goals(I think it was Shola Ameobi) he swam back to the centre circle. Lost 2-5 to someone. Yes, I miss football.

CosbehFox Posted 24 March 2020 Share Posted 24 March 2020 Understandable a bit more at non-league as clubs can't always have their pitches from May onwards and similarly they need to reduce the overhead costs of contracts as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuna Posted 24 March 2020 Author Share Posted 24 March 2020 Interesting to see where they go with this - null and void or points per game discussed, no mention on promotions / relegations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuna Posted 26 March 2020 Author Share Posted 26 March 2020 Doesn't seem fair on the likes of South Shields (12 points clear) wheras Bradford Park Avenue (12 points adrift at the bottom of the NLN and have been down since last year) get to retain their place.

Fox92 Posted 26 March 2020 Share Posted 26 March 2020 Not fair at all. Every league should be complete, even if that means cancelling next season. You can't rip it up half way through. The whole point of a league is to determine the best and worse sides. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leicesterpool Posted 26 March 2020 Share Posted 26 March 2020 (edited) I feel sorry for clubs like Harrogate and Barrow, both waited a long time to get into the football league to have it suddenly taken away from them. I notice once again the fans never get there say on these decisions... the people who spend alot of money on attending these games.

No decision on National League yet, it's the leagues below that have ended the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And within hours South Shields are already talking about legal action over an "appalling" decision". Something that will only intensify the higher up you go with clubs losing revenues/promotion etc of all the leagues are cancelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've already got clubs asking for their players to take a defer from salaries, I know Leeds players have agreed to it. Trouble with all the money in the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitchandro Posted 26 March 2020 Share Posted 26 March 2020 Incredibly unfair and downright disrespectful decision. It's such a rash thing to do when we need to just be patient and see how things pan out with this. What is the point in cancelling a season when we don't even know if we'll have a next season? At the moment it's quite likely football won't be able to resume until September and that's if we get things correct. The way people behave in this stupid country I'll be amazed if we get it sorted anytime soon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
