I think it is pertinent to the club’s sad demise so, no thanks.Graham Stovold wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2025 4:34 pmWhy ?HackJowarth wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2025 3:50 pmHardly tittle-tattle then. Shahid is welcome to step forward and give his account.Graham Stovold wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2025 2:38 pm
Not discrediting you hack, my point I was trying to say is that we have only heard one side of the story from Woking end. Shahid has kept his counsel on the background of the story, (and rightly so), so we will never be able to judge.
The only one who mentions it is you, it’s in the past get over it.
Re: Exeter City
Graham I asked the question why did he suddenly have undying love for Aldershot after leaving two local clubs and leaving quite quickly. What is his plan ?
Re: Exeter City
It’s well known why SA left Woking but it can’t be said that he left Guildford City FC “quite quickly”. Read this article :- https://www.getsurrey.co.uk/sport/footb ... ty-4825447

Glad to see he improved the pitch at Guildford. Birdman love your loyalty to him. Something is terribly wrong don't just blame him but also the other three directors something is going on.The man had no intention of improving Aldershot Town. Not the other three.Birdman wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2025 10:17 pmIt’s well known why SA left Woking but it couldn’t be said that he left Guildford City FC “quite quickly”.

Seems pretty clear there was other motives for his undying love for Aldershot. What they are Mr Azeem alone knows.

You also haven’t answered Localshot’s question yet.

Got something wrong ) he left Guildford very quickly because the council would not give him money....to seek bigger football ambitions ? Where ? And if it's us what has he done ?
Sounds like a way out to me..
Maybe if he filled me with the odd biscuits and bacon sandwiches and doughnuts I may be loyal to him too.
Re: Exeter City
My apologies local shot
To become the Chairmen of a club to me you either have
1) undying love
2) Be a fool
3) a motive
We all have our own opinions on which one.

Re: Exeter City
From The Farnham Herald 5th December 2019
ALDERSHOT Town have revealed an ambitious five-year plan which hopes to see them return to the Football League and playing at a rebuilt Recreation Ground by 2025.
Chairman Shahid Azeem and manager Danny Searle unveiled the blueprint at a packed fans’ forum last Thursday, with redevelopment of the EBB Stadium – including the construction of a new 7,000-capacity arena, at a cost of £7 million, plus 136 houses and a 140-room hotel – due to begin in the summer of 2021.A 118-year lease on the site, which is owned by Rushmoor Borough Council and has been valued at £3.5 million, is due to be ratified in the next two weeks, and would allow the club to proceed with plans which Azeem described as a “game changer”.
The renovation would see the stadium move slightly north-east of its current footprint, away from the adjacent London-to-Alton railway line on the south side, and to create more space at the High Street end of the ground to accommodate the hotel and additional car parking spaces. It would retain what he called a “retro” feel – “not a soulless, plastic stadium”, promised the chairman – and also be designed to allow for a further increase in capacity if required.
To be fair we did have the Covid 19 interuption so some latitude should be afforded. Oh the 3rd thing was debt free.

Has the lease been confirmed as signed? If not, what is the club’s legal status in terms of playing at The Rec?brian bloomfield wrote: ↑Sat Feb 15, 2025 11:25 pm From The Farnham Herald 5th December 2019
