Calling Staines the 'richest club in the country with no debt whatsoever' is somewhat far fetched.
When Matthew Boon sold the club in 2018 the club had debts. The accounts for the last period that Matthew was owner of STFC show this.
Matthew sold a club -in name only- with little or no assets.
STFC don't own the ground - we are the tenants.
STFC don't own the building - our limited use of parts of it are as tenants.
When Joe bought STFC in the Summer of 2018 there were no players,no manager/coaching staff and little help given by the clubs previous committee.
The manager had quit at half time in the Middx Senior Cup Final - two weeks before the end of the season - and the players had been told to find other clubs by the departing manager and by the outgoing chairman.
If you don't believe this you would be wise to speak to some of those players.
Joe Dixon has made mistakes since taking on the club in June 2018. At the end of the day he is human. After all, find me somebody in any walk of life that hasn't made mistakes in life - work or personal -
People need to get behind the club and help the owner and the newly appointed chairman progress this club forward both on and off the pitch.
The past is the past !!!
What has been done has been done !!
This club needs unity amongst supporters to help the clubs aim to progress this club back to a higher level.
