North Sheilds 'we have no money & we're doomed' Also North Shields today 'here's a list of players who've signed for us including a number from higher leagues' I don’t know if these players are playing for free and shields have struck gold by capitalising on the blue star and shields situations. Either way this doesn’t strike like the same situation as Brandon, very much a please put our fixtures on hold as we will likely lose them and allow us a little time to put a team together so that we have a better chance. It’s a disgrace to those teams who were due to play them. You right brandon had been struggling off and on the field for a number of years and actually put in a resignation so yeah nothing like n shields. Whilst im glad both clubs are sorted on the future if a clubs first team is decimated by players walking or injuries will fixtures be put on hold? Is academy/reserve teams not there for such circumstances?

Would think newcastle were not paying players, had winding up orders etc the way fans went on

Whilst im glad both clubs are sorted on the future if a clubs first team is decimated by players walking or injuries will fixtures be put on hold? Is academy/reserve teams not there for such circumstances? I do not know if you are aware, but Shields have not had a youth set up, or reserve team , for a number of years The management team and the entire playing staff said they were leaving a couple of weeks ago, there were literally no players left at the club.Make no mistake, the club was very close to folding.The financial situation had not been helped by the posponed games, but clearly they had been paying the players too much The players and management had been asked by the club to take a pay cut, and they excercised their right to decline the offer .The new players Shields have signed are because of the contacts of the manager, or their connection with Shields the football club ( some have played for the club in the past).They are mostly from Blue Star (they had been released by them), or from the academy set up at South Shields The current manager is an ex North Shields manager, (and South Shields assistant manager and Blue Star Manager) and is doing his best to 'save the club'-he is also a local lad. Therefore it is a mixture of released (older) players, and youngsters It remains to be seen whether this team will be competitive ,the target is simply to get to the end of the season, to enable the club to survive till then, and then take stock of the situation Theres the biggest issue, paying players silly money but no reserves or academy

Another one that the league have fell for hook line and sinker. North shields paying ludicrous amounts of money out we then get bad weather and get games called off North shields money drys up they get games called off get everyone feeling sorry for them because they haven't cut there cloth accordingly then all of a sudden right we've got a few quid from somewhere it's time to go again. Absolutely stinking. The games they called off the opposition should take the points. All this new management set up and squad won't be doing it for nowt. Conmen horrendous crack.

Fit and proper people to be in charge of a football club Players bunking off on mass ?? This situation has made a mockery of the league

The best post I’ve seen on this, awful situation. Shame that anyone who would stick up for the situation would sound like someone who was kicking a club when they are down! It’s disgusting what the league have allowed them to do.

Fully agree with last few posts and it sure sets a dangerous benchmark for the future. Clubs will think if n shields get away with it we can, i presume there new manager has brought some cash with him

It’s just legitimately telling clubs that if they want a break for a bit then that’s fine.

Quite a few new more signings reported on their website:
Have also knocked a quid off their admission charge following a review with their fans. Interesting to see how the first page in 'the new chapter' goes tonight against a very good Heaton Stannington side...
