Except everyone knows the answer to it, so a redundant question really.

Laughing all the way to the bank? Seriously?

Again, stop making stuff up.

There's a world of difference between the two.

The value of any company is simply what someone is prepared to pay for it. How can you prove such a thing? SISUs offer was to pay off the mortgage in return for the Higgs share. That valued their offer at £14 million (based on the council bail out). Was it enough? Who knows, but it...

Who is 'bleating on'? It was my first comment on the matter. Nobody is suggesting they get it for nothing either. That would be absurd. And they did not back out of the deal to purchase a stake, that is the opposite of what happened. Stop making stuff up in an attempt to prop up your flimsy...

10 months ago SISU offered £14 million for a 50% stake in the management company. It was rejected. Were they trying to get the arena for 'nothing' then?

Yes, it is shocking. Especially when the landlord is effectively the city council, and the tenant the most important community asset this fucking city has.

Walsall pay 400K for use of their stadium. Crucially though, it is for 365 days use. Walsall, in 2007/08, averaged 5.5K, but their turnover in that year was approaching £7 million. We averaged over 19K, but our turnover was was a little over £9 million - and we had both higher ticket prices...

Tickets for this now available on the official website for anyone interested.

Right, so had you been born in Exhall on the N&B side of that same line you'd have chosen to support someone else? Not sure why I'm bothering to try and argue against such an irrational viewpoint. We'll be returning to the Ricoh at some point anyway.

You don't have to believe that SISU will build a new stadium to believe that the move is temporary. The most likely outcome remains a return to the Ricoh. The next most likely being the death of the club, then some way behind that you have the building of a new stadium followed by the least...

You lose all credibility with point 2 - trying to dress opinion up as fact.

The fact you would give up on your football club because it might potentially be a few hundred yards the wrong side of an imaginary line drawn by a civil servant at some point in the past is one of the most insane things I have ever read on this forum, and the competition for that accolade is...

Your argument makes no sense, but you're entitled to your opinion. Wakefield (as you define it) is just a collection of towns separated by miles of countryside. So, in your world, a team playing in Knottingley (separated from Wakefield by the town of Pontefract and 14 miles of greenbelt) would...

No it shouldn't. Would be an absolute travesty if away numbers started to dwindle. Away games are a perfect opportunity for us to show how much we care - not just to lift out own spirits, but also as a show of strength to supporters of other clubs and also to the media. There is no value in...

Wakefield (the city) has a population of about 70K. The metropolitan borough has a population 320K+ but includes the towns of Normanton, Pontefract, Featherstone, Castleford and Knottingley - all of which comes together under the somewhat confusing name of City of Wakefield - which is really...

What are you talking about? Do you see dead people?

Wrong.

That's what he is saying.
