I'm not a Staines supporter but do come occasionally to watch the team and am interested to see how things are going. Is it a budget issue I wonder? The appointment of an inexperienced (at step 3) manager who you suspected might not have much in the way of contacts or players of the required standard coming with him. The announcement and sudden departure of 3 experienced players either before or very early into the season and then the reliance since on very young and probably inexpensive players has resulted unsurprisingly in the disappointing start so far. Having said all of that it goes a little bit against the new consortium stating the intention to be a Football league club in 10 years? Is it simply a case of they don't have the money to compete? Maybe the 10 year plan will have become an 11 year plan? The problem is that if the board is not very careful and can take steps to arrest the decline a drop into the division below becomes a distinct possibility and hard to come back from.

P.S. isn't the goalkeeper related to one of the new consortium members?
