Yep, that's fine and I hope to see my name on a Twitter GIF on Saturday.

@cup of tea I think you make a very good point and Ronnie has always been a committed team player and works hard at whatever the manager asks him to do for the team. He may not have been the big goal scorer or playmaker during his time with us but he is a winner and deservedly so with our FA Trophy success which he played his part in, wish him all the best and once an Urchin always an Urchin

Karen isn't letting the grass grow is she, here are her Inane Ramblings (From Up Noorf) covering last Saturday's FA Cup Extra Preliminary Round ties and opening Division One fixtures as well as the Edgware & Kingsbury v Hoddesdon Town tie played on Sunday: 2022/3 SSMFL: INANE RAMBLINGS FROM UP NORFF #2 (Saturday 6th August) - Sports Shots

Glad to be back once again for a new season , hopefully a title winning season, but let’s see what happens as the game weeks go bye , but opening day vs bogner , I will say a Hornchurch 3-1 win attendance- 555 Come On You Urchins!!!!!

Trying desperately not to say utility player! Ronnie has been a massive asset to this club and always put the effort in which fans always appreciates - Good luck to him in whatever he does next/wherever he goes.

It goes without saying that for any successful team there needs to be a core of stand-out quality players. These players are naturally celebrated and cherished by supporters and a privileged few become club legends. Any successful team also needs to have squad players who can play wherever required and can always be relied upon to put in a decent performance. There are no prizes for guessing which of those two categories Ronnie belongs to, but in my view his contribution to our success in the last two seasons deserves its own recognition. I am sorry that he has left and I hope he finds what he is looking for at his next club.

I don't know if we have any signings in the pipeline so we'll allocate you Lewwis away if that's ok. We want to start promoting the away sponsorship so if we don't give you anyone now there's a chance you may miss out.

Thanks Mike. I'm trialling a paid upgrade to one of the plug-ins that's installed so will see how it works out. In addition to the banner you also get configurable statistics (total shots etc), a match timeline, past meetings plus a bunch of admin tools so we'll see how it goes and whether it's worth it. Thanks.

I note that Ronnie Winn has left the club. I'm sure I saw Mark Onyemah playing in the St. Ives game. If I wasn't mistaken and he signs can I swap to Mark please. Failing that, Can I have Lewwis Spence away. Mike
