So was I, didn't phrase it very well. Having worked at a council in the past it is simply unthinkable to me that something with this potential repetitional damage and level of potential investment would be something undertaken by the CEO with nobody else having any knowledge of it.

I had to check this wasn't a wind up, it isn't. You know things are bad when people like that are calling for resignations.

Nobody is saying the leader of the council has to get permission for any conversation. But do you not think with something that would clearly be hugely controversial and involve such a large amount of money it maybe would have at least been mentioned? If Duggins and the council knew nothing...

27 dates now at the o2, that's got to be a record for most shows in a single tour, add in the dates from the last tour he did and he must be up there in terms of acts who have played the o2 the most times in total.

Great game, thought it was slipping away in the middle of the innings but should have known better with this England side.

Was he one of the investors?

There's not this many good looking women in the crowd when I go to Edgbaston :D In fact there's quite often not enough people to class it as a crowd

Afridi injury looks like it could be key

behind the rate now, this is going to be a nail biter.

This has certainly been an eye opener into the murky world of finance and bonds. It seems Wasps were essentially loaned £35m with, in real terms, no security. Even ignoring the slightly dubious, to say the least, valuations of the lease it seems near impossible to actually enforce the...

10 overs done so we're getting a result today. Time to get the calculators out and make sure we stay ahead of the required rate

Fucking hell, making very tough work of this

He made a comment after one of the games that nobody really seemed to pick up on, can't remember exactly what he said but remember it sounded like there was a problem, its been sorted and we move on from here.

Hoping it's an auto correct issue, but think I'm going to be disappointed.

So far so good. Think there's about 10 England fans there and the rest of the crowd is Pakistan

We seem to have the idea that owning the arena either means more money coming in or at the very least playing at no cost, neither of which are necessarily true. ACL has always struggled to turn a profit and there's millions in repairs needed. Even if we weren't paying rent there's still the...

Not a motorsports fan so I've never been to Brandon but it wasn't in great condition when It was in use was it? Is there a realistic prospect of getting the Bees back or is it more a case of wishful thinking?

why are we having a World Cup break but then playing before the World Cup ends?

There's a lot of things that don't make sense hence my reluctance to make definite statements on Ashley's interest or motives. We've gone from people wanting the NEC nowhere near it because an owner that wasn't interested in the football club would be a disaster to Ashley being a landlord we'd...
