After four years wouldn't you expect that to be the case? Unless you expected to see us still having Gerry Daly on the books somewhere?

Elliottt was just going to be the man to make it palatable to the fans. Been wheeled out by board after board, owner after owner to do that job,without complaint. Anyway,they soon moved on in that board meeting to the important stuff like making sure that they had the best seats to eat their...

That's down to Ranson and his spending of considerable sums on poor players generally, and very poor managers. He even wanted to get rid of the Academy to save money.

Yep,if the title of this thread had another "0" on the end it would be running at about 30 pages long by now.

Do we know if IEC Experience Limited is part of the ACL accounts or will that have seperate accounts? Not a scooby myself.

Thought we would have had Malaysian Airlines myself. Supposed to be one place, end up somewhere totally different miles away.

Spinks?

Broken Britain, symptomatic.

Just wondering. Would Boundary Blindness be what afflicts England batsmen when on tour?

Thank God you reposted, from your initial answer i was worried that Jimmy Saville was back from the grave!

Just can't think of many politicians around that I could say that i respect anymore. Dennis Skinner? Always had a soft spot for Ken clarke despite him being a Tory. Really don't think that any of the new breed of politicians has any sort of principle that guides them, could all easily...

I'm not sure.

Do you have something to do with Compass?

The first one.

I just don't think that there is any evidence as yet that ACL aren't being distressed,nor that they are either of course. That will be in the next couple of years. Unfortunately, Sisu for a Hedge Fund seem more willing to play a long game than I'd have given them credence for when they first...

Not at all confused, the £21million(not £25million, my mistake) is for the ACL lease as stated(Though of course that money went back to the council immediately). The £40million is the figure that ACL valued the agreement between themselves and the club.

One more before I leave it! Of course that £4million would have helped the figures somewhat, but only get that once.

I'm still upset about Tony Benn to be honest, so going to leave it for a bit. Saw him giving a speech in hyde Park at the end of a CND march and rally back in 1980 when i was 12, hugely influenced me at the time. Not too many of his ilk left sadly.

That £40million is the value that ACL put on the contract between themselves and the club at the time of administration. They have never paid "£40million as a right to trade", they paid £25million for the 50 year lease. You are getting the two confused.
