Page 6 - Deal Round Up November 2019

Concord chairman Ant Smith told The NLP what stood them apart all those years ago and
how a relentless quest to be as good as they possibly can has been the cornerstone of their
success, which is why he thinks they’ll go right to the very top.
“Danny would only ask for that extra one per cent to make things better for the players or the
club,” said Smith. “He wasn’t asking for thousands of pounds, just little bits and pieces that
would make a big difference.
“On a Thursday night after training we’d have ‘Pizza Night’. I’d order them in, a few of the
committee would go down there and we’d have a laugh and it just helped that comradery
and the bonding between us all. Little things like that. “Their desire to win games and their
attention to detail was just incredible. For anybody in Non-League to watch what they’ve done
gives everyone hope. I truly believe they will manage England one day.”
It would be a remarkable story should they go on to lead the Three Lions but for now we wish
them all the best in their new challenge and know they continue to be great ambassadors for
Non-League football.
Like Chris Wilder in the Premier League at Sheffield United, it is a boost to Non-League gaffers
with big aspirations to see these examples. It shows there are sharp managerial minds outside
of the Football League.
Let’s hope more get a shot at it because of them.
Kick It Out By Matt Badcock
WE ALMOST had to check the calendar on Saturday night. Yes, it is 2019, but here we still are
reporting on alleged incidents of racism in Non-League football.
So often are we quick to jump on it when heard in other countries but time and again
this horrible issue keeps rearing its head in England and Wales and it can’t be brushed off
anymore. Recently word quickly filtered through from Hartlepool United’s National League
game with Dover Athletic.
