As our neighbours and particularly being a league club 4 levels higher than us its inevitable that they will be a major supply line either with unwanted youngsters (Clark, Wearing, Woods) or veterans having a last run as a semi-pro (Hunter, Carlton).

This is not the only concern it's more about what's been said at the AGM and not shared with us the fans/ FF members!

I don't believe that you be so despondent about an anti-shrimp post on the forum of a club whose main rivals are that aforementioned club. I know that Carlton is presently wearing the blue of LCFC but you mustn't forgot what he is remembered for at El Bog. I hope that he stays at the Axe and scores a plethora of goals but that doesn't mean that we should forget that they are our main rivals despite them being four levels above us.
