Billericay Town

I think they might have.

It's still currently in Dulwich's hands though. They've done their bit & got their points on the board. It looks like a 2 horse race now with only Folkestone Invicta which could in theory ruin their promotion hopes.

Billericay now caught up with Dulwich in terms of games played and Billericay are 3 points and 8 goals ahead.

Yeah, but did you see that YouTube video he/they posted? That’s got to be worth a 10-point deduction surely?

 

[Blueronron]

Very honest I think, its a big man that admits that maybe he was the cause of the stutter and expectations

Yep, he’s a prize one....

Ha ha how funny, if they mess this season up a lot of teams will be laughing at them for sure, big wages handed out, players sent out on loan and transfer fees paid also, money well spent:omg:

 

[kaymac]

Majority of clubs in the league above have a playing budget well under £10k a week but, presuming they promoted, he’ll find them a lot tougher proposition than the sides they face in Isthmian Prem.

According to him, that would mean the club is 'substainable'. :smile:

He has a very different attitude on money and the club now compared to the start of the season. Like buying that Ferrari and having them wrapped in Billericay home and away kits for fans to take pictures in, etc... Openly said it the interview he hasn't got the money to give anymore. What with his company in liquidation and owing however much, I really do wonder how financially sound he is or if it's just a house of cards...

Ah, now that’s the big question but I’d say it’s the latter...

Massive game for them tonight, at home against Staines, only 3 points clear on same games now, all to play for:smile:

1-1 draw @ Enfield, O'Hara got a red in the 90th minute, Enfield equalised in the 90th too.

Just a shame Dulwich could only manage a draw as well

Billericay 5-3 Staines FT. Gate 580, seem to be losing their fans?

Saw the details today for Dulwich season tickets and 13 to 19 year olds pay their age - £19 season ticket for a young adult!

5-3 win for Billericay is double crazy too!

5-3 win for Billericay is double crazy too!

A brace from the bench for the prolific Jake Robinson last night. If that's a sign that he's about to regain the early season form which has recently deserted him somewhat, then I think Riccay will edge it for the title.

I think its more likely the number of games they have to play in a short period of time, a trip to Colchester for Essex cup thrown in

We seem to forget we only took 6000 to Wales when winning the play off final,after an LDV Final.

Money plays a major part for supporters and maybe they have to choose and pick games with the build up

 

[kaymac]

So what happened to the 1,000 plus they were getting early season? For a team at the top of the league and heading (it seems) for the title 580 isn’t a great turnout.

I went to Enfield- Billericay Saturday, the crowd there was 690, some 250 up on their average.

 

[kaymac]

Very much doubt all the extra were ‘ricay supporters, but what’s that got to do with the number of supporters at their home games which has been in decline since earlier in season?

3 home games every 10 days gets a tad expensive at the back end of a season
