Not much point doing a stocktake, we'd never file the accounts anyway :)

Yes, that's what I thought. I was replying to Grendel's comment that "the club tried negotiating the rent 3 months after moving in and the answer was no".

I thought I'd read that there had been discussions and that a different model had ben offered (not sure whether formally or informally) whereby the rent varied dependant on which division we were in.

Does anyone have a link to a media report of TF admitting that the accounts are incorrect?

Personally, I'd prefer us to be taken over by a billionaire who named his children after the '87 team and has a statue of Jimmy Hill in his back garden. However, if it were to be a choice between SISU and someone that JE was involved with, I'd be happy to drive all the departing SISU folk to...

Isn't that what ACL/Council did?

I'm fairly sure that OSB's postulations are not conducive to the good health of SISU!

If "people" was directed at me, then I think I did. Personally I'd match OSB's analysis against TF's somewhat shaky grasp of the accounts he signed off, anyday. I was merely taking your rationale and comparing it with earlier comments you'd made.

Double standards Lord? You're happy to accept that those in a relatively small hedge fund know what they're doing, yet over recent years you've had many a poke at GH despite his senior roles in much larger financial organisations. Of course, that was before you became best mates :)

And your achievements are.........?

To be fair though, I expect that if any SISU owned companies are landlords, they'll give their properties to their tenants after a few years (especially if they go on rent strike) :)

Most people are very appreciative of the effort you and your colleagues put in. Sadly, it's a fact of life that the moaning tw@ts make a disproportionate noise.

Missed all this excitement last night..... I've been critical of SL's handling of these matters over the last few months, but much credit to him for coming on here and stating his case.

Thank you for explaining so carefully. I'll try to return the compliment and I'll also try to avoid being too inarticulate :) Now, I think I've just about got the hang of the phone-in principle, but sadly it doesn't really apply here. This whole issue arose because TF was interviewed by...

I suppose that's one way of avoiding the issue.....

Odd, I'd thought I'd read that your boyfriend was a journalist. If that had been correct, I'd have thought he'd be much more interested in the "right questions" being asked - and if they weren't being asked, I'd have thought he'd have been interested in why not.

I've cancelled my Sky Blue Player subscription. As Tesco says - every little helps!

It's difficult to believe that SL isn't aware of these facts, so why didn't he ask these - very obvious and very important - questions?

With work commitments, I can't make the majority of games these days but I've still been buying 3 season tickets so that various family members can come with me when I go. I kept buying season tickets partly because I like the people I sit near and partly to give a little extra revenue to the...

You have to wonder - does TF actually believe all of this himself? Could make an interesting case study for a psychologist.
