Sounds like Meadow want to starve Dulwich into extinction then build houses on the ground. Given th3 state of London property prices it seems that Rio’s ten million won’t touch the sides. One wonders how Meadow got their hands on the club!

After strong rumours a few days ago that TU had almost been sold - a statement from the owner!

If TU go down, they will be the only Football League Club ever to enter the National South division – whereas there are currently eight in the National North.

Torquay United's hopes of staying in the Vanarama National League have been dealt another serious blow after a second important result went against them in the relegation battle on Wednesday night.
The Gulls were hoping that Hartlepool United, who started the evening in the final safety place, would lose or even draw at fellow strugglers Barrow, but the financially-crippled North East club won 2-1 at Holker Street in front of BT Sport's live cameras.
That score followed another bad result for the Gulls last night, with Solihull Moors beating mid-table Bromley 2-0 at Damson Park.
It means that Hartlepool (19th) have now moved above Barrow (20th) and effectively 12 points clear of Torquay (22nd).
United's goal-difference is much inferior to all the teams above them, adding a point to the deficits.
Barrow are still nine points ahead of United, but they still have two more games in hand over the Gulls.
Torquay, who face bottom-of-the-table Guiseley at Plainmoor on Saturday, must play like champions over their final eight matches and hope that their rivals flop.
After Guiseley, United travel to one-from-bottom Chester FC on Good Friday and then entertain Woking (18th) on Easter Monday.

It's nice that, despite all their problems, they'll still be entertaining visitors.

Will there be finger-sandwiches and mini-pork pies?

Meanwhile here's the Chester position

Those of our fans who aren't happy because we're likely to finish mid-table (after a dreadful start) should perhaps consider if they'd rather be following those clubs at the foot of the NL, all having a dismal season and facing financial calamity

Potentially York City....

Good news for Truro City?

I read today that Dagenham and Redbridge are at risk of going into liquidation at the end of the season. Their benefactor has walked away and they are struggling to replace him.
