Baby, it's cold outside!

Frozen conditions.  Is the game on?  How to find out?  Call the club and speak to one of the club staff (as if!)  What about checking club website?  It's OK for finding out what meal will be available for pre-match dining, or if you want the stats of players like Jon Challinor, or Manager Morrell Maison!  We can even see the stats of greats like Roy Clayton (184 goals in 462 games), or Brett Solkhon (curiously 0 goals in 0 games...)

However, when it comes to less important information such as, are we actually playing today, or is the Chairman intent on destroying the club, we are less well served.

There is also a handy section detailing our collection of officials and authorised blaze-wearers.

I can't say I'm totally familiar with the set-up at Non Park, but I'd be surprised if Messrs Stimson, Knowles or Thorn would confirm the accuracy of this list.  Interestingly the main triumvirate of Chairman, Operations & Finance Directors are all sadly lacking.  OK, there is at least a name under the title of Chairman, but, come on, surely this one is a joke?

Just another symptom of a club that if you said was run in an amateurish fashion, you would be insulting amateurs.
