They actually did (or some community group did) plant apple trees on the site, to create an orchid. Then they had to pull them all down and remove them as they didn't have permission from the council to do so.How's your radio commentator Swampy doing these days? Did he ever get round to pitching up in a tree on the green field site Pallet Park was built on to protest against the building of your stadium? I mean, him being an avid animal rights activist for many years it's the first thing he would've done if any other club was intending to build a football stadium there, yet when it came to his beloved FC Scum he mysteriously abandoned all those principles he's held for so long.
Because they are rattled by City fans.....they hate us you seeWhy have you suddenly decided to become active on this forum? Genuine question.
Our club our rules isn't a fallacy. One of our rules is to enter competitions where we have to comply by their rules ;)This is the problem when you build a reputation built on sound bites.
Our club our rules is a falacy. Yes it's your club but you have to fall in line with the rules of the FA. So you voted to enter the FA Cup and in doing so are bound to agree with their rules.
So making a song and dance about being asked to play on the telly v Rochdale or Chesterfield and then kicking up a fuss arguing against it was grandstanding (or attention seeking) to save face with members or to appear to be "rebellious" in front of the ever willing media.
It also made the club look stupid and laughed at when inevitably the FA slap you down and tell. you firmly when you are playing the game. And then members start swearing on the telly protesting because they didn't get their way.
Yes members can vote on club shirts, shirt sponsorship (or not) and ticket prices but as soon as you signed up to join the NWCL you agreed to play by the FA's rules just like everybody else does.
Actually I'll be in Gainsbrough watching FC United ;) Don't have a Sky box either, aside from anything else the thing is a right bloody rip off, rather watch live football anyway.NorthManc7 is not backing down a true FCUM fan that will be watching the united game vs newcastle on his skysports dish and box
Sky have never come knocking so your entire post is pretty invalid but sky are more than welcome to film our game and give us some cash providing it is of benefit to the club and it's supporters, just like any other broadcaster. Like many others you've made the mistake of believing that we've got a zero tolerance stance on being televised. I'd say it's an easy mistake to make but it's been explained so many times it should have hit home by now ;)The whole 'club' is invalid. Set up by a bunch of sulky twats, claiming they will be doing it the ''right'' way .... and sold their soul the second Sky came knocking ..... just like the 'big utd', hypocrites as always. Hope they sink and sink.
So you broke away from that other lot because you did'nt like the way it was run. Now you're saying you want to break away from the FA ? Proper little Tracy Ullman club. Hated the way Gods own club was run by Swales but never....never...never thought of leaving. Would truly love to say what I really think of your club and fans/supporters/turncoats but we do have ladies on this forum and GDM ,so I won't.

I own the club ;) At a supporter owned club it's not difficult to have plenty of insight ;)@NorthManc7 - what position do you hold at the club as you seem to have plenty of insight (albeit mostly a brainwashed one). Did you believe Jermey Corbyn when he said he would get rid of student debt
