It was in the same way under raiders.
Eagles and the youth are 2 separate entities. I supporters the other.
Patriots want money for youth to funel into the pro rather than the other way round, hence why they didnt want to work together

Sorry if i came across angry or aggressive irf there, ive read it back and it looks that way to me and i didnt intend it to be. Strictly talking basketball, the raiders didn't have a youth system they left it to a group of dedicated individuals who ran it well. The same was offered to patriots, they said no (perfectly fine) amd then went about everything they did poorly at a detrement to youth development. They are a stain in Plymouth basketball hidden by the bright lights at the pavilions. That's a shame and Patriots big loss Is there no chance of them building bridges back to the youth basketball? |

Dexter their hmrc bill is alredy in 6 figures, by all accounts theyre far worse off than raiders ever were Don't apologise. You are just passionate about basketball. And care. |

They have their own now, its just a poor set up |

Antonio Williams just tweeted "Not money hungry at all I just know my worth" ... quite damning for Plymouth.

They certainly seems like they have money for signing players, puzzling when you think about the issues with Pavillions. I guess we'll see where they are in a few years. |

So I have just spoken to Williams, and seems to be a pay issue. He wanted an extra 200 dollars and the club said no!!! Which paved the way for him to leave to a team who is paying him more and offering more games!!!
Any ideas why Troy left???

Troy has 1 good game which happens to be his last, how typical. He massively underperformed compared to last season in nearly every category. Plus the difference in announcement could be there was issues with the player behind the scenes. Quite a common occurence for a player to be released in a few words. See sheffield releasing 2 guys a week ago. He also only averaged roughly 10pts a game. Is that enough from your import scorer?
Antonio wanting more cash mid season is a pretty common thing for an import especially if his agents been seeking his next job, which now looks likely.

He has come out and stated that that’s not true, players were begging fans to feed them early on, probably a lot of reasons hes gone! |

Only taking the conversation I had with Antonio, but he stated to me “you wouldn’t believe the pay they are on at plymouth” and that he’d get more being a bench warmer at Surrey. I’m surprised though as the stands are always always much to the patriots and the city’s credit full, everyone wears merchandise. So I’m surprised their so cash strapped!!! Is there any news on the new facility that could be taking cash from the club

Is there any news on the new facility that could be taking cash from the club I doubt they're making much staging games in Pavillions, so merch is probably one of their only main income streams along with sponsorship. Until they get their own facility sorted, I don't see things changing. They were supposed to already be in there new venue, according to their initial announcements which I thought were very ambitious. This stuff can take years to sort. |

Carl was quite good at throwing shade last year about how much closer they were to a new venue than raiders ever were. You'd think owning a construction company he'd know how long things take

If they are struggling to pay their players and suppliers, I wonder if they are meating their legal obligations to pay HMRC PAYE, VAT and NI contributions.

Booman asking the supporters group if anyone would like to cook for them one evening (because they missed home cooking) is not the same as ‘begging fans to feed them’. You might be down on the Pats but at least stay factual. |
