Childish petulant behaviour from Russia. The whole wave of attacks on Ukraine today is just a hissy fit from criticism at the G20. Even India and China visibly distancing themselves from Russia whereas they were keen on being “independent” previously. Hopefully the projectile that landed in...

Saying I was going to put a bid in knowing that there was a period of exclusivity in place is like claiming you knew an answer all along on a quiz show after they’ve given you the answer having failed to answer the question in the allotted time and still expecting the points.

There’s nothing really stopping anyone contacting SG and say I’ve got a bid bigger than Ashley’s sitting on the table. Doesn’t necessarily make it A) true B) credible. Could be a Dhinsa character. I’ve got an £50m offer sitting on the table for example, anyone got SG’s fax number? The little we...

Bigger offers from who exactly? How credible are they? NEC apparently outbid by Ashley for pre-pack so assuming that’s correct not NEC. This local guy with his US backers? I might be doing him/them a disservice but I’m having trouble buying into that one, the US backer is being touted as a...

Just who exactly do we hold all the cards against?

Reads like a few independent investors (probably Wasps fans) who didn’t understand what they were getting into. The fact that they’re trying to crowdfund their legal challenge doesn’t ring like they’re experienced investors with client lawyers in tow. I would suggest that experienced investors...

Assume he means the Times, as in the newspaper given he also mentions the Mail.

How would the council ever expect it back? Wasps on crowds of 4K and ACL barely making a profit doesn’t ring that this would be a serviceable debt, before you even factor in the other debt, £116m being touted around as total debt. It’s Truss economics. They’d either lose the lot or just continue...

They’d be stupid not to take it. Then again they still seem to be clinging onto the lease being worth £50m so anything is possible.

Nope. They essentially could have purchased it at the point Wasps did for that and clear the majority of the council loan that was sitting on ACL’s book at the time. They wasn’t interested. They didn’t want to pay anymore than Wasps did but with the CCC debt written off IIRC. Unencubered was the...

So it will be Thursday 17th then, maybe as late as Friday. But definitely not Wednesday 16th.

Thought it was Thursday?

Like I said, serious bidders.

The bidding war by the sounds of it was the pre-pack admin, between MA and NEC. Any genuine bidders would have come forward then.

It’s not just them. Other political parties are afraid to bring it up. I’ve got a feeling that we aren’t going to have the grown up conversation required about Brexit until after the next GE. In the meantime it keeps doing damage on a daily basis.

I’ll be honest, I don’t have a lot of sympathy for the bond holders. It’s like taking a bookies to court because your horse didn’t come in.

Given the circumstances you’d have to say he’s our best ever. The only managers we’ve had that have achieved more did it with a very different backdrop.

Surprised you’re still on here. We won. You normally disappear when we’re winning, only happy when we’re losing. Well done to Robins, breaking the records again. Great manager who we’re lucky to have, I’m sure you’ll agree.
