lots of lower leagur and non league clubs love to call themselves community clubs. for me it just seems a plea to local people to turn up for the match. they do very little infact for the community on the whole apart from school visits. i,m not talking about Stanley but clubs in general. even those like hartlepool with a town centre location do very little off the field activity for the local community. its like passing the marie celeste there on non match days. the problem is the money generated from say pensioners meetings, mother and baby groups and anything you can think of will only generate a few hundred pounds when its thousands that are required. its all about the money in the end. unless wages are kept more in check for me things will only get worse with even more players having to leave the game as clubs go back to the early 70,s with even smaller squads than they have now.
