Lucky sods!
I don't really know where we stand on going full-time at the moment?
Is there a possibility in the future or just a definate no where we stand at this moment in time?

[Alty365]

Full time on their attendances is a recipe for total disaster.

[chrisrufc]

They only get about 500 home fans don't they?

[Sarf London Alty]

 

Oh dear. Dear dear dear me. They've clearly been taking lessons from the highly sucessful Peter Risdale Leeds United book on 'living the dream' then, what did they have at Moss Lane the other night for aguably the most important game of the season so far for both our clubs, 50 odd or something? Pathetic. They must have the same fruit machines in the bar that they do at Forest Green then.

How can this be, they have got the worst support in the conference with an average gate of 600 this year, at a Setanta 2nd round reply they had 92 fans. If im not mistaken going full time means your finaces have to be in order, you can't be in debt and your attendence must average over 900. I really dont think Farsley complioe to any of the full time criteria.

900? Try doubling that then adding a few hundred. 2000 at least to be a viable full time outfit I'd suggest without the benefit of a benefactor with more money than sense.

It really doesn't work at our level without a rich and stupid benefactor. The likes of Oxford, Torquay, Cambridge and Exeter apart I really do no not think Full Time football is viable at our level , and I include York in this based on gates. Time will tell, hopefully without too many over ambitious clubs going to the wall. A big readjustment is needed , and I feel that because of egocentric club owners it needs to be mandatory.

[Longman]

They are looking to incorporate "Leeds" into their club name!?!?!?

Selling their souls if you ask me.

[markecky]

Full time on gates of 400.

You have to wonder who teaches these chairmen maths....just crazy.

[chrisrufc]

Maybe he is reading BBC reports and thinks he's getting 5000 every week
