One thing I would say, Simon Gilbert has played a blinder in the last few weeks. Unsurprisingly, no mention whatsoever on the CT site of what is a very significant local story. Edit: it is on Cov Live, but somewhat buried.

I bet Moseley Signs took great pleasure taking those signs down. All of the usual suspects on Twitter very quiet this morning.

The number of twitter followers for those clubs is skewed a bit as they have played in the PL during the lifetime of twitter. Get promoted to the PL and you gain 250K followers overnight and you hold on to a lot of them for years after. It's the reason why Sheffield United have far more...

Mad, isn't it? Everyone's got a fucking theory, their own 'truth' and get all offended when it's questioned. DK is acquiring an 85% stake, soon to be ratified by the EFL. That's it. That's the reality until proven otherwise. Everything else is half-baked guesswork.

There are people who don't seem to care. They are genuinely egging him on. As long as SISU get a bloody nose, fuck the club.

Sounds to me like the club assumed the current deal would continue and would have been entirely comfortable with that. What's so outrageous about that? Tried to.negotiate more preferential terms? That's just conjecture. There is no basis for that. The club have stated there have been no...

I see your point, but we were a rival bidder. You may argue it was too little too late and was a non-starter, but we did table an 11th hour bid ahead of the hearing. How would that have played out in court had it been revealed we had already done a deal with the same people we were bidding...

You also seem to be forgetting that we made six figure payments to ACL just so we could fulfill our own fixtures, some of which would have paid staff salaries and covered their costs. No Goodwill for that? For sorting out the pitch? We didn't sign the agreement for entirely obvious reasons...

I'm not convinced he wants it, but if he does, he has no right to play Russian Roulette with something so precious to so many people. It's a very shitty play. It doesn't end well. We're evicted, we relocate again (we have form) and the EFL agree to it. Surely, common sense will prevail though...

What general reaction? Nobody has really reacted. Look, pointless going backwards and forwards. I will choose to condemn the eviction notice as an unduly aggressive act that was not necessary at this stage and which could be hugely damaging. I see it as an attack on my football club, which I...

You're really struggling here. The 'absurd nonsense' consists entirely of condemnation of the eviction notice.and not much else aside from calling out your tiresome whataboutery and Vicky Pollard act.

Refused to sign a commercial agreement with a 3rd party to play at a venue that said 3rd party didn't actually own? What a bitch.

You've got absolutely nothing to add Grendel. Wasps have done this - yeah but SISU did this in ... Frasers have just done this - yeah but wot about SISU in ... It's a really aggressive action - yeah but Joy is queen of aggression... Wot about, wot about. The only thing I'm defending is my...

Just more irrelevant whataboutery.

On twitter there are a few. There are plenty on here refusing to condemn what is an incredibly aggressive and destabilising action. People should be furious, it is an outrageous step they have taken, but it's all yeah but, no but, Seppala, handbags blah blah. Fuck sake.

Don't care about all that. It's done. Bottom line is there was no way that agreement was being signed pre-completion. To suggest otherwise is batshit. You have Ashley and his cronies threatening to evict us with just days notice and there are clowns applauding this because the last 15 years...

This place is making less sense by the day. Apparently, SISU are now to blame for not signing an agreement with a 3rd party before it even owned the place, when they had designs on owning it themselves and while a takeover of the club was being negotiated? Who the fuck does that?

It isn't though - it expires at the end of the season. It is a million miles from being the same deal. They could absolutely shaft us next summer. It is an issue of SECURITY. Absolutely staggering you cannot see this.

How does it? They are asking us to tear up our 10 year licence agreement to be be replaced with one that last's for 6 months - potentially leaving us massively exposed. This is not silly buggers - this is acting in our own self-interest.

It was possibly no more than a gesture so they could turn to the fans and say "look, we tried". It's kind of irrelevant anyway, because it didn't get off the ground and didn't impact on MA at all. It cannot possibly be used as an excuse to act so aggressively.
