    I asked him that specifically. He said he’s double and triple checked it, said similar in the radio interview. Sisu have released a statement saying it’s nonsense.

    Nothing better to do? Same as Storey and King/Sisu had hoped it would fall apart and he could bid? Gilbert doesn’t just have council contacts that’s ridiculous. Just today he’s verifying the Storey story, how would council contacts help with that? He clearly knows people at the club willing to...

    Still maintain: Name, badge, golden share should be owned by a fan trust (I know that word triggers a few) and they should lease it to owners.

    Can’t see what it’s got to do with the EFL TBH. King is either fit or he’s not. Any legal arguments about exclusivity are surely for the courts.

    Everyone’s a hypocrite, but yeah I’d put them in too. Isn’t Taylor Swift the biggest individual polluter on the planet or something? The current breed of climate activists get a lot of shit but I thought the XR ones who shut down that airfield used by private jets had the right idea. Focus on...

    It’s not just the horses mouth though. I know we all like to make fun of local journalists but they do actually triangulate information with other sources and Gilbert who seems to have an inside track here has repeatedly said Ashley has been nowhere near the club and not shown interest. Hoffman...

    The top 1% are really where we should be focusing the “personal responsibility” stuff. Their usage massively outweighs what any of us even in a developed nation does. But seemingly if you’re rich you’re a special unicorn who can’t be upset.

    I do. What do you think is going to happen? You do know how modern nuclear reactors are built don’t you? And again, if the U.K. is hit by war or earthquakes or tsunamis then we’ve got much much bigger problems. Why not compare us to someone similar like France?

    It sounds like they’d agreed with Storey and Storey just didn’t complete in time so she went to King. Sounds like she just wanted out TBH. I forget now, when did Ashley come on the scene? I’d assume any exclusivity would be at least a month to complete which suggests early to mid October was...

    Most positive spin I can give: Kings “couple of weeks” wasn’t literally 14 days and no one talks during potential court action. But it doesn’t look good, especially if EFL processes have been stopped/delayed. Did Gilbert say that cos I missed it if so?

    King not answering his phone doesn’t fill me with confidence. This joker turning up doesn’t fill me with confidence. Frankly I don’t have much confidence. From the sounds of it this exclusivity deal is what stopped any serious bidder from getting the club in time to get the stadium. Why is...

    Chernobyl. Really? You realise how that happened didn’t you? Again do you think that would happen in this day and age? In this country? It’s like saying trains aren’t safe as a technology because of 7/7. https://www.sciencefocus.com/science/could-chernobyl-happen-again-without-human-error/amp/...

    About 135 years left according to this: Peak uranium - Wikipedia We’ve wasted too much time to worry about ideal. Hopefully 100 years is long enough to get fusion off the ground or significantly improve renewables. I’d still want solar and wind at every viable location personally.

    GMOs or nuclear? Yes to both.

    It says nuclear is safer than hydro and wind and significantly safer than fossil fuels:
