It's a pity that we couldn't get a slice of the cake - or even a few crumbs.

A couple of grand would have been nice, but looking at Shamblecote, they probably need the money more for stadium improvements than us. Lets not forget we've had a revamp of the shed and a new bar so we've had our fair share.

Yes Beasty but I believe the refurbed shed and the new bar were financed within the club, mainly by Mike Burke, and not some lottery payout, which neitherless would be gratefully received I'm sure.

To recycle an old favourite of mine, the lottery money at STFC is to be used as follows -
Complete renovation of the cricket ground side, comprising of 1 new rope.
Supplies to enable reseeding of the main stand.
A three piece suite. So that Amblecoat can be classified as "all seater".
For regular readers, I will continue to repeat this joke on a yearly basis until 2056.

you mean there won't be using the money to sign up Graham Hick to play at right back or anything?!

They have a new badge, heavily featuring the Pears of their historical geography.
Along with a dead cat.
