Apart from HM, is there anyone else with a a niggling feeling in the back of their mind wondering if there'll be a ground to grade or a team to support when next season starts?
Why's that Roger? We've seemingly signed loads of players, presumably on contracts, and we already have a grading don't we? Genuine question...

What's wrong with a grass pitch? The vast majority of teams in our division have one!

Obviously I hope my doubts are unfounded but it's the lack of openness from the club (i.e. the new owners) that's caused them. Most clubs would have been eager to keep supporters informed of any stadium developments during the close season but we've all been reduced to guesswork as to what the plans are.
The fittings of the clubhouse (?) boardroom (?) were removed about a month ago but we only found out about that because the removal company put it on their own Facebook page. What has subsequently been refurbished/ redecorated? Does anyone know?
Then a rumour started on here that the asbestos roofs of the terrace and stand were being replaced but people who have passed Beveree report no sign of any work.
As for the new signings, have any contracts actually started yet? I presume they'll start next month so no wages will have been paid out yet. Correct me if I'm wrong.
A few press releases would have prevented all this speculation.

the club didn’t put anything about the Hampton FC,Hampton & Richmond Borough Football club 102nd birthday since club was formed on the 25th May absolutely nothing at all

So I wouldn’t expect anything anytime soon

Doesn't seem that big of a deal, no club posts about their anniversary every year, can understand if it was for a significant year, but 102nd isn't something to lose sleep about.

I thought the 102nd was the 3G anniversary?

It’s a massive deal the club we love
There’s club that died and forever grateful our club is here

But now it’s taken over by ppl who haven’t a clue about past of the club

Whether it’s 100th 59th or 102nd our club should always be celebrated

Just hope the new owners and their support team take time to read “Beveree Chat”. There are so many worryingly unanswered questions on these important topics ( as well as season tickets) !
