  1. Common sense at last,shame 2 leave Abbey Park,but 4 the future of the club it's a no brainer.70% 4 moving,pretty resounding.
  2. Come on,the park was neglected long b4 then n we have a hospitality suite that does very well.The current chairman has put 18k at least of his money in 2 the club and along with Colin Evans attracted numerous new sponsors.Be very careful what u wish 4 ,as I don't member any previous chairman in last 15 yrs doing the same.
  3. Maybe we,'ll get his payment 4 his advertising boards now from his 1st time as Chairman[emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
  4. The costings r there n so r the pledges
  5. The costings r all there 4 Ksc ,so where's the ifs n buts??If u save 16k a year,then it's not rocket science,u can put that 2 facilities and playing staff,along with the pledges of money from fans as well.
  6. I don't really see any alternative. Stay at Abbey Park,where teams have complained bout changing rooms,or couldn't fit in the away 1??a boiler in the refs room,that falls thru the floor,or the lot could end up in Ladyford Ave???
  7. At this time,there is no outlook 4 the future at Abbey Park,as those facilities won't last another cpl of years.Ksc gives us a chance 2 build something 4 the future and if we r saving the planned 16k n putting it towards the facilities,along with the money promised from a few who want 2 invest in the new park,I think it will take shape in cpl o years.The plans looked good.
  8. I would say he's just bn realistic.There is no 1 with the kind of money needed at Abbey Park.If the club is to flourish in the future and with junior football changing, we need 2 have better facilities.
  9. The advertising was brought in by the ex committee member who was drove out the club by idiots making up lies and being harassed while trying 2 work.Hopefully he could be talked in 2 coming back in time or sum 1 got a big job pre season.He was a big part in them want 2 advertise,not where we play.
  10. Definitely,know 1 or 2 teams have had reservations already.I hope when folk vote,they think bout the future .
  11. I'm along the same lines,no alternative but 2 move.If we don't we leave the future of the club in the balance,as these facilities aren't good enough,n how long b4 some 1 refuses 2 use them.
  12. Not an easy thing 2 decide n as I said ,it's not as if the club hasn't stated this over last cpl o seasons.Lot o folk on the fb page etc haven't been at a game in 20 years,do u give them a vote??
  13. Fans have been told at every meeting for 2 years,only a season ticket would guarantee a vote on any matters.As 4 the players,surely your Ben Lewis(10yrs),Adam Strain and Bryan Boylan(5yrs plus)who have had 2 put up with poor and sinking changing rooms and having 2 wait 4 a shower,are entitled 2 a vote!!!
  14. Good 2 c us getting back 2 playing matters.Fine performance n could have scored a few more,if it wasn't 4 some good saves from the Cumnock keeper.Big game next week and a chance 2 go 2nd.
  15. Don't think in the 40 years I've attended Buffs games,have I witnessed so many troublemakers.Most of this nowadays is done by keyboard warriors.Everyone has been given the opportunity 2 put there points fwd or cum up with plans,but no 1 really has.The only folk who have a plan and have been very open,are the current committee who have the future existence of the Buffs at heart,as they are all genuine guys.We lost a good 1 in Colin Evans n I hope that will be the last.
  16. Let's b honest here,there has been troublemakers,or why has 1 committee member,who raised a lot of money 4 club walked away n why has countless lies been said bout the chairman and current committee.B glad 2 c it all by with n the club hopefully moving fwd.
  17. Think folk need 2 realise that it's not the chairman n committee that realise the Buffs need 2 move,the sensible fwd thinking fans and players do as well.
  18. U must be reading that wrong then ,as that's probably only a third of the support at most and basically members.
  19. Don't think that's bn decided yet,but there talking season ticket holders,committee n volunteers voting.
  20. Think that's how things r moving fwd,there is no concrete plans or funding n they've had long enough.
  21. More like 100k plus or Ksc I'd say.the folk who had plans 2 stay have came up with nothing in the last year.
  22. I think it's more 2 do with the club having an ambitious future,which can't b realised at Abbey park,due to decades of neglect and no chance of raising the money 2 get it up 2 standard.
  23. From what I've seen and heard,the group that wanted 2 stay and raise money 4 improvements have came up with nothing in last 6 months.Now is the time 2 put up or shut up I'd say!!!
  24. I have ,along with others,watched,played ,even painted stands as a 10 year old at Abbey park n protested years ago 2 stay there,but sad 2 say the money is not there 2 bring it up 2 an acceptable standard 4 the future n if it means in 3 to 5 years we have a new stadium fit 2 progress in the future I'm all 4 it .coyb.
  25. The problem is the 1s waiting in the wings are dinosaurs who can't see junior football is changing and we need 2 keep up with the times.The old chairman had his time n I for 1 don't want him back near the committee.
