"In other news, it has been announced this week that Stockport County will play no further part in this year’s Cheshire Senior Cup. The FA have informed the club that Liam Dickinson was not eligible to play in the Preliminary Round against Witton Albion having been registered after the deadline, and have therefore removed County from the competition. County won the game 1-0. This decision does not affect any other competition involving Stockport County and there is no financial penalty imposed as a result of this ruling. This was a genuine player registration error and we accept the decision of the FA and have no plans to appeal."
WHAT THE F**K???
Jesus Christ.

The worrying thing though, ars, is that it's a basic error that shouldn't have been made, the type of error you ask for when you lay off anyone with a hint of an understanding of the registration system. Also, the fact it has been made is bad enough, but who was responsible for it?

Three things.
The supporters are the club's biggest asset. Otherwise it's just an empty ground with 22 players kicking a bag of wind around. They would do well to remember that.
It is the club secretary's job to register players. This may have been overlooked due to the changeover forced by retirement.
Opportunity missed to repeat that Phil B will be signing copies of his book on Wednesday evening.

Good post, Downy, and you're right about the Club Secretary. Tony Whiteside has retired now hasn't he?

The last I read he was overlapping with the new guy to make it a smooth transition. Not sure if that period is now over though.

It all just makes us look a bit 'Phoenix Nights' to me, it's embarrassing. I mean, imagine if two people got the flu at EP these days, the place would grind to a halt, where's the cover?
I hate what the various culprits (too many to mention or bore everyone with) have done to my club. I hope these 'interested parties' get something on the table pretty soon or there'll be nothing left of it to save.

The only thing I saw from this was some communication to the fans though it felt like the news of the cup being sandwiched within the statement. Oh well, appreciate jon taking the effort.

The whole thing is ridiculous, these boardroom updates seem like a lame attempt at 'communication' without actually telling us anything and squeezing the bad news in the middle just like you said, probably hoping that it won't be seen.

Excellent point that, mate. I'm not certain if that is driven by JK, I suspect someone has provided some words and he's crafted it into what has been released and put his name to it - and it's missing our motto........
